Jane Eyre: Ireland is a long way from here. Rochester: Never mind, a reasonable girl like you wouldn't object to a voyage. Jane Eyre: It's not the voyage, it's the distance, and the ocean is a big obstacle. Rochester: Distance to what, Jane? Jane Eyre: Distance from England, sir, and Thornfield, and... Rochester: Sometimes there's a strange feeling about you, especially when you're near me, like now, it feels like there's a Strings, tied to my left rib, where my heart is held tightly by strings similar to yours. When you go to England, there is a huge distance between us, and I'm afraid this string of emotional communication will snap and my heart will bleed. But you are sensible, you will forget... Jane Eyre: No! I will never forget! I really wish I hadn't been born, I really wish I hadn't come to Thornfield. Rochester: Other places are fine too. Jane Eyre: How can you be so stupid? How can you be so rude? I can be poor, I can suffer, but I can't be without feeling! Not in which house, but my life here. I wasn't tortured, I wasn't rejected, I was treated fairly equally!
