More quotes by Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

"Even for me life had its gleams of sunshine."
"And it is you, spirit--with will and energy, and virtue and purity--that I want, not alone with your brittle frame."
"To talk to each other is but a more animated and an audible thinking."
"I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will."
"Self abandoned, relaxed and effortless, I seemed to have laid me down in the dried-up bed of a great river; I heard a flood loosened in remote mountains, I felt the torrent come; to rise I had no will, to flee I had no strength."
