“I grieve to leave Thornfield: I love Thornfield: - I love it, because I have lived

think I can stay to become nothing to you? 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,

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!”
