This chapter of The Cambridge Companion was very useful when I needed help deciphering between the motives of each of the characters. It helped me organize how each character truly felt based primarily on their class status. It was shown that Lady Catherine was only kind to the people who shared her status and she was bitter to people who were "below her". It showed that Austen has always had the best view of the people around her because of her objective life style. She was never married, so she had an objective perspective of the married women around her. Because of her objective outlook her writing was always truthful and that's why everyone enjoyed it.
