- William Larkins: We got the finest litter of pigs you ever saw from Polly, your pig, Harriet. Oh, bless her old sow's heart!
- William Larkins: You, Mr. Knightley, to hear me out and counsel me, are the best friend a man ever had.
- Mr. Knightley: What did you expect but that he would fall in love with you?
- [Scolding Emma for encouraging Mr. Elton by inviting him to so many social events]
- Mr. Knightley: [Speaking of Harriet's engagement to William Larkins] I must admit that I had a hand in bringing them together.
- Emma Woodhouse: [amused and feeling vindicated that even Knightley can play matchmaker] You mean you made the match yourself?
- Mr. Knightley: Yes, yes. And it is a good thing, Emma. I believe that Harriet has always loved him and he's never stopped hoping that one day she'd accept him. And he's a good man, Emma.
