First Lines

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.

Well...I am waiting to meet him.  Where is my Mr. Darcy?  (Silly me, I do have a perfectly lovely Honey at home.) Pride and Prejudice is an icon of English literature, and Jane Austen's greatest novel (at least the most-loved) stands as a fine example of her work.  As a romantic at heart, I can not hear or read that first line without a little thrill.  It holds so much potential, and seems like such a promising little morsel of words.  I can not think of a great "First Line" without thinking of that one...
