Quotation from: Jane Eyre

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"Yes -- but you understand one thing by staying with me; and I
understand another. You, perhaps, could make up your mind to be
about my hand and chair -- to wait on me as a kind little nurse
(for you have an affectionate heart and a generous spirit, which
prompt you to make sacrifices for those you pity), and that ought
to suffice for me no doubt. I suppose I should now entertain none
but fatherly feelings for you: do you think so? Come -- tell me."


"I will think what you like, sir: I am content to be only your
nurse, if you think it better."
