“I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look, or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew I had begun.” – Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
Oh, Mr. Darcy. Will any flesh and blood man ever live up to tall, dark and fictional you?
If you’re a Pride and Prejudice fan, you will absolutely love this Mr. Darcy shirt from Katie’s Thornfield Hall shop on Etsy. All of her designs are hand screen printed using eco-friendly water-based inks and feature beloved literary quotes. This particular passage – one of our favourites – is from shortly after Elizabeth and Darcy become engaged in the book. They are talking about how they fell in love and she asks him when he first knew … this is his answer.
Step it up, real life guys. Seriously.
