Quote #7
"Your daughter's fortune is indeed splendid. But pray tell, what other qualities does she possess? Is she fetching? Is she trained in the deadly arts? Has she even strength enough to lift a Katana?" (56.49)
Elizabeth trash talks Lady Catherine here. Anne de Bourgh may have some good qualities (like money), but she doesn't have the strength or skill that Elizabeth does. Does Lady Catherine really think that's gonna catch Mr. Darcy's eye?
Quote #8
"It would take skills far exceeding your own to draw but a single bead of exercise moisture from my skin. Weak, silly girl! So long as there is life in this old body, you shall never again be in the company of my nephew!" (56.69)
This is big talk coming from a woman with twenty-five ninjas to guard her. Basically, Lady Catherine doesn't think Elizabeth has the skills to beat her. Is it because Elizabeth trained in China? In any case, her ladyship will soon find out how wrong she is.
Quote #9
Elizabeth and Darcy laughed at the sight, and for a moment, resolved to keep walking—as the zombies had failed to take notice of them. But, sharing a glance and a smile, the pair realised they had stumbled onto their first opportunity to fight side by side. And so they did. (58.32)
Oh, how sweet: their first zombie slaying adventure. The couple who slays together stays together.
