QUOTE THAT I THINK DESCRIBES HIM:
"When I said that he [Mr.Darcy] improved on acquaintance, I did not mean that either his mind or manner were in a state of improvment, but that, from knowing him better, his dispositon was better understood."
--Quote said by Elizabeth Bennett to Mr.Wickham (Austen, 260)

This quote really opens my eyes because Elizabeth is absolutely correct. Mr. Darcy has hardly changed. Some still think he is arrogant, and proud, but that is because they don't know him. Elizabeth has had the opportunity to get to know him better, and by doing so, she sees why he acts the way he does. She sees the reasons behind the things he did, and she feels as though she judged him wrongly because she did not know all the facts before judging him so wrongly. She sees his true nature, and see what the outsiders don't, which is why her opinion of him changes.

Why I Chose Mr.Darcy to Do A Character Profile On:
Okay. There are many reasons why I chose this character to do a profile on, but the main reason is because he's just so complex. His character seems to change drastically throughout the book, but now that I think about it, the only thing REALLY changing is the way Elizabeth percieves him. (Of course, he changes somewhat throughout the book, but after finishing the book, I feel as though he must've had some good in his heart since the beginning of the book.)
