"Who that knows what his misfortunes have been can help feeling an interest in him?"
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice, chapter 34.
The passage it comes from
The quotation is marked in the paragraph it sits in, with the prose either side of it for company.
"You take an eager interest in that gentleman's concerns," said Darcy, in a less tranquil tone, and with a heightened colour.
"Who that knows what his misfortunes have been can help feeling an interest in him?"
"His misfortunes!" repeated Darcy, contemptuously, - "yes, his misfortunes have been great indeed."
Text from the Project Gutenberg edition, which is in the public domain in the United States.
