Charlotte Bronte
Wise people say it is folly to think anybody perfect and as to likes and dislikes, we should be friendly to all, and worship none
Charlotte Bronte
I could not answer the ceaseless inward question-why I thus suffered now, at the distance of-I will not say how many years, I see it clearly.

Charlotte Bronte
I mentally shake hands with you for your answer, despite its inaccuracy. Mr. Rochester
Charlotte Bronte
But what is so headstrong as youth? What so blind as inexperience?
Charlotte Bronte
When you are inquisitive, Jane, you always make me smile. You open your eyes like an eager bird, and make every now and then a restless movement, as if answers in speech did not flow fast enough for you, and you wanted to read the tablet of one's heart.
Charlotte Bronte
