Quotation from: Jane Eyre

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"But I wonder no wealthy nobleman or gentleman has taken a fancy
to her: Mr. Rochester, for instance. He is rich, is he not?"


"Oh! yes. But you see there is a considerable difference in age:
Mr. Rochester is nearly forty; she is but twenty-five."


"What of that? More unequal matches are made every day."


"True: yet I should scarcely fancy Mr. Rochester would entertain
an idea of the sort. But you eat nothing: you have scarcely tasted
since you began tea."
