Jane Eyre | Charlotte Bront

“...my mind had put off all it had borrowed of Miss Temple—or rather that she had taken with her the serene #atmosphere I had been breathing in her vicinity—and...I was left in my natural element...beginning to feel the stirring of old emotions. It did not seem as if a prop were withdrawn, but rather as if a motive were gone: it was not the power to be tranquil which had failed me, but the reason for tranquillity was no more.” #QuotsyApr19

If he had ever had any one to talk to about his secret terrors—if he had ever dared to let himself ask questions—if he had had childish companions and had not lain on his back in the huge closed house, breathing an #atmosphere heavy with the fears of people who were most of them ignorant and tired of him, he would have found out that most of his fright and illness was created by himself. #QuotsyApr19
