Quotation from: Jane Eyre

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"If they are really qualified for the task, will not their own
hearts be the first to inform them of it?"


I felt as if an awful charm was framing round and gathering over
me: I trembled to hear some fatal word spoken which would at once
declare and rivet the spell.


"And what does YOUR heart say?" demanded St. John.


"My heart is mute, -- my heart is mute," I answered, struck and
thrilled.
