I do not see what right Mr. Darcy had to decide on the propriety of his friend’s inclination, or why, upon his own judgment alone, he was to determine and direct in what manner that friend was to be happy.
– Jane Austen
Pride and Prejudice, Chapter 33. Elizabeth speaks out against Mr. Darcy’s unwarranted interference in his friend Charles Bingley’s love life and future with Jane. She tells Colonel Fitzwilliam that Darcy didn’t have the right to alone decide how his friend was to be happy.
