Pride and Prejudice HELP??

Question

Can some help me with these quotes. I need to write a paragraph about each of these but I don't know were to begin. Websites are helpful too! :)

"Only let me assure you, my dear Miss Elizabeth, that I can from my heart most cordially wish you equal felicity in marriage. My dear Charlotte and I have but one mind and one way of thinking. There is in every thing a most remarkable resemblance of character and ideas between us. We seem to have been designed for each other."

"I was only confused for the moment, because I felt that I should be looked at. I do assure you that the news does not affect me either with pleasure or pain. I am glad of one thing, that he comes alone; because we shall see the less of him. Not that I am afraid of myself, but I dread other people's remarks."

“A man who has once been refused! How could I ever be foolish enough to expect a renewal of his love? Is there one among the s*x, who would not protest against such a weakness as a second proposal to the same woman? There is no indignity so abhorrent to their feelings!”

“It is happy for you that you possess the talent of flattering with delicacy. May I ask whether these pleasing attentions proceed from the impulse of the moment, or are the result of previous study?”

"Only let me assure you, my dear Miss Elizabeth, that I can from my heart most cordially wish you equal felicity in marriage. My dear Charlotte and I have but one mind and one way of thinking. There is in every thing a most remarkable resemblance of character and ideas between us. We seem to have been designed for each other."

i mean thats ironic because she had just had that whole scene with the proposal... and this is coming from a guy who once purposed, and the letter he gave when she was in the garden.  and now shes starting to realize oh **** i love him.

(well i dont know if what i said is completely correct its been forever since ive read the book, but you can take it or leave whatever makes sense)
