"Here’s me giving Jane Austen a second chance since I have a beautiful version of Emma. Just starting Volume 2 and while I’ve *mostly* been enjoying it and there are some parts that have made me lol or have been completely relatable (was not expecting that to happen), I do have to admit that some parts are just boring! Why are we having a whole convo about if this dude will visit or not?!?" Apr 09, 2025 08:20PM

Charlotte Brontë
“Mr Brocklehurst: Do you know where the wicked go after death?
Jane Eyre: They go to hell, was my ready and orthodox answer.
. . . Mr: What must you do to avoid it?
Jane: [Thinking] I deliberated a moment; my answer, when it did come was objectionable: " I must keep in good health , and not die.”
Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

Charlotte Brontë
“Oh, you are indeed there, my skylark!  Come to me.  You are not gone: not vanished?  I heard one of your kind an hour ago, singing high over the wood: but its song had no music for me, any more than the rising sun had rays.  All the melody on earth is concentrated in my Jane’s tongue to my ear (I am glad it is not naturally a silent one): all the sunshine I can feel is in her presence.”
Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

George Orwell
“She's beautiful,' he murmured.
'She's a metre across the hips, easily,' said Julia.
'That is her style of beauty,' said Winston.”
George Orwell, 1984

Charlotte Brontë
“As I exclaimed 'Jane! Jane! Jane!' a voice- I cannot tell whence the voice came, but I know whose voice it was- replied, 'I am coming: wait for me;' and a moment after, went whispering on the wind the words- 'Where are you?' "I'll tell you, if I can, the idea, the picture these words opened to my mind: yet it is difficult to express what I want to express. Ferndean is buried, as you see, in a heavy wood, where sound falls dull, and dies unreverberating. 'Where are you?' seemed spoken amongst mountains; for I heard a hill-sent echo repeat the words. Cooler and fresher at the moment the gale seemed to visit my brow: I could have deemed that in some wild, lone scene, I and Jane were meeting. In spirit, I believe we must have met. You no doubt were, at that hour, in unconscious sleep, Jane: perhaps your soul wandered from its cell to comfort mine; for those were your accents- as certain as I live- they were yours!" Reader, it was on Monday night- near midnight- that I too had received the mysterious summons: those were the very words by which I replied to it.
(Mr. Rochester and Jane Eyre)”
Charlotte Brontë , Jane Eyre
