Jest ci zimno, ponieważ jesteś sama; żadne zetknięcie nie krzesze z ciebie tego ognia, który jest w tobie. Jest ci niedobrze, ponieważ najlepsze z uczuć, danych człowiekowi, najwyższe i najsłodsze, trzyma się z dala od ciebie. Jesteś niemądra, ponieważ jakkolwiek cierpisz, nie chcesz przyznać skinieniem tego uczucia, nie chcesz posunąć się krokiem tam, gdzie ono na ciebie czeka.

“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? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! — I have as much soul as you — and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God's feet, equal — as we are!”


― Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

You are Jane Eyre

To understand you is to love you. As a deep thinking, passionate yet quiet soul you may be more comfortable expressing your ideas, and ideals, through the written word rather than verbally. Lost in dreams, you may appear distant and undemonstrative to some, but when people get to know you, they discover a warm and kind friend.

Jane describes herself as "poor, obscure, plain and little" and you may be your own harshest critic. Despite your quiet nature, and discomfort with conflict, you will find your voice, and stand up for causes you feel passionate about.

I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.
