START: Stay? Do you think I can stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automaton? A machine without feelings? Do you think because I am poor, obscure, plain and little, that I am soulless and heartless?
[...]
END: I am not talking to you through custom, convention or even of mortal flesh. It is my spirit that addresses your spirit, as if we had both passed through the grave and stood now at God’s feet, equal. As we are!

Sally Cookson, Jane Eyre, Oberon Books (electronic edition), 2015, pp.124-125.
