Jane Eyre -- who said what?
Cards (19)
- I am cold, and no fervour infects me
- Whereas i am hot and fire dissolves ice
- I am no bird; and no net ensnares me
- You are like a murderer – you are like a slave-driver – you are like the Roman emperors!
- “Revenge never worries my heart, degradation never too deeply disgusts me, injustice never crushes me too low”
- Most things free-born will submit to anything for a salary
- Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!
- Reader, i married him
- Is this my pale, little elf? Is this my mustard-seed? This little sunny-faced girl with the dimpled cheek and rosy lips; the satin-smooth hazel hair, and the radiant hazel eyes?
- I had not intended to love him; the reader knows I had wrought hard to extirpate from my soul the germs of love there detected; and now, at the first renewed view of him, they spontaneously arrived, green and strong! He made me love him without looking at me.
- I desired liberty; for liberty I gasped; for liberty I uttered a prayer; it seemed scattered on the wind then faintly blowing.
- He made me love him without looking at me
- "Good-night, my -- " He stopped, bit his lip, and abruptly left me.
- What love have I for Miss Ingram? None: and that you know. What love has she for me? None: as I have taken pains to prove:
- Do you think I can stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automaton?—a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup?
- And then you won't know me, sir; and I shall not be your Jane Eyre any longer, but an ape in a harlequin's jacket -- a jay in borrowed plumes.
- I am an independent woman now.
- Clouds so sombre, rain so penetrating
- I am not an angel, I asserted; and I will not be one till I die: I will be myself.
