Jane Eyre Favorites

As I read Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, I went through and found my favorite things about it. The different categories are favorite character, favorite scene, and favorite quote. My favorite character would have to be Jane. She is my favorite because even though she was weak, she stayed strong. Going through life and not feeling loved would be very hard, but to not give up and have faith was amazing. I don't know many people who could do that. If she were a real person I would look up to her. My favorite scene was when Mr. Rochester showed Jane who his wife was. I liked this scene because the mystery was built up and we could finally see what he was hiding. All along I thought Grace Poole was crazy and the one with the eerie laughter but it was Bertha Mason the whole time. I really had a hard time finding my favorite quote because there were a bunch that caught my eye. The one I loved was, "Well, to-night I excuse you; but understand that so long as my visitors stay, I expect you to appear in the drawing-room every evening; it is my wish; don't neglect it. Now go, and send Sophie for Adele. Good-night, my -- " He stopped, bit his lip, and abruptly left me." (Bronte 214) I particularly like this quote because it shows that Mr. Rochester really does love Jane and wants to see her all the time. He about shared his love with her but stopped.
