"And then when you go away, you may leave one or two of my sisters behind you; and I dare say I shall get husbands for them before the winter is over."
"I thank you for my share of the favour," said Elizabeth; "but I do not particularly like your way of getting husbands."

– Jane Austen

Pride and Prejudice, Chapter 51. When newly married Lydia makes a flippant remark about getting husbands for her sisters, Elizabeth puts her in her place. Lydia boasts about how she successfully found a husband, while her sisters are still single, but little does she realize how difficult it was to get Wickham to marry her. The irony is that Wickham had to be bribed to wed her.
