Oh my, Rochester ?!!

St John and Mr Rochester are quite literally polar opposite’s ?!!

"Don't imagine such hard things. Fancy me yielding and melting, as I am doing: human love rising like a freshly opened fountain in my mind and overflowing with sweet inundation all the field I have so carefully and with such labour prepared - so assiduously sown with the seeds of good intentions, of self-denying plans…”

Jane is so inspirational and I love that she has self-respect for herself ?!!

“Gentle reader, may you never feel what I then felt! May your eyes never shed such stormy, scalding, heart-wrung tears as poured from mine. May you never appeal to Heaven in prayers so hopeless and so agonized as in that hour left my lips; for never may you, like me, dread to be the instrument of evil to what you wholly love.”

“She seemed the emblem of my past life; and here I was now to array myself to meet the dread, but adored, type of my unknown future day.”
