Hilarious parallel speeches that are just great when you put them side by side:

Pride & Prejudice:

Upon hearing that Charlotte is engaged to Mr. Collins, Elizabeth says, “Engaged to Mr. Collins! my dear Charlotte, impossible!”

Upon hearing that Elizabeth is engaged to Mr. Darcy, Jane says, “You are joking, Lizzy. This cannot be! Engaged to Mr. Darcy! No, no, you shall not deceive me: I know it to be impossible.”

Emma:

Elton to Emma, about Harriet: But, Miss Smith, indeed!—Oh! Miss Woodhouse! who can think of Miss Smith, when Miss Woodhouse is near!

Harriet to Emma, about Mr. Knightley: Mr. Frank Churchill, indeed! I do not know who would ever look at him in the company of the other.
