Jane Eyre:
I have lived a full life here. I have not been trampled on. I have not been petrified. I have not been excluded from every glimpse of what is bright. I have known you, Mr. Rochester, and it strikes me with anguish to be torn from you. Rochester:
Then why must you leave? Jane Eyre:
Because of your wife. Rochester:
I have no wife. Jane Eyre:
But you are to be married. Rochester:
Jane, you must stay. Jane Eyre:
I'm become nothing to you?... [near tears] Jane Eyre:
Am I a machine with out feelings? Do you think that because I am poor, plain, obscure, and little that I am souless and heartless? I have as much soul as you and full as much heart. And if God had possessed me with beauty and wealth, I could make it as hard for you to leave me as it is for I to leave you... I'm not speaking to you through mortal flesh. It is my spirit that addresses your spirit, as if we'd have passed through the grave and stood at God's feet equal. As we are. Rochester:
[taking her arms]
As we are. Jane Eyre:

Are you mocking me? Rochester:
Do you doubt me? Jane Eyre:
Entirely
