Episode Quotes

Georgiana Reed: If only Aunt Gibson would invite me up to town. It would be so much better, if only I could get away for a month or two until it was all over.
Eliza Reed: Georgiana. If there were ever a more vain, absurd animal than you. You are completely useless and in being useless, seek only to cling onto others. If no-one can be found to burden themselves with such a fat, weak, puffy, useless thing you complain that you are ill-treated and neglected. You must be flattered. You must be admired or you languish and die away.
Georgiana Reed: Well! Everyone knows you are the most selfish creature. You ruined my chances with Lord Vere. You could not bear the thought that I would be raised into circles where you dare not show your face.
Eliza Reed: Let me give you this advice. It is the first and last I shall offer you. If you divide each day into sections and perform some useful task to timetable, the day will be over before you know it. You will be dependent on your own senses and not have to be flattered and admired in order to know that you exist. After my mother's death, the hour of her burial, I wash my hands of you. It shall be as if you and I had never known each other and if we were the last two human beings left alone on Earth together, I would not exchange one more word with you.
Jane Eyre: Yes, I do have a friend.
Jane Eyre: Someone who, when I talk to them, they understand everything I say. They would laugh if I told them about Mrs. Reed, they're so in tuned as me. They'd know my thoughts before I even think them, certainly; before I put them into words.
Lady Ingram: When Mr Rochester sees fit to make a certain announcement, that young lady will feel the benefit of a good English boarding school.
