簡愛，If God had gifted me with some beauty And much wealth,I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you.I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom,convenionalties, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the gave, And we stood at God's feet,equal-as we are!
妳以為我會無足輕重的留在這裏嗎？妳以為我是壹架沒有感情的機器人嗎？妳以為我貧窮、低微、不美、緲小，我就沒有靈魂，沒有心嗎？妳想錯了，我和妳有樣多的靈魂，壹樣充實的心。如果上帝賜予我壹點美，許多錢，我就要妳難以離開我，就象我現在難以離開妳壹樣。我現在不是以社會生活和習俗的準則和妳說話，而是我的心靈同妳的心靈講話。
