229 dilemmas faced

Jane Eyre is the resilient heroine of Charlotte Brontë's novel, a plain orphan who earns her way as a governess in Victorian England. Fiercely protective of her self-respect, she insists on moral equality in love and life. Her insistence that conscience outranks convention made her an enduring figure of principled independence.

What they might say about themselves

I have been poor, lonely, and dismissed, yet I have never been without myself. Whatever roof I stand beneath, I carry my own hearth of resolve.

On morality

To be loved is good; to be honest with one’s soul is necessary. If respect for self must be paid in solitude, then solitude shall be my companion.
