“I know I must conceal my sentiments: I must smother hope; I must remember that he cannot care much for me. For when I say I am of his kind, I do not mean I have his force to influence, and his spell to attract: I mean only I have certain tastes and feelings in common with him. I must, then, repeat continually that we are for ever sundered: —and yet, while I breathe and think I must love him.” — Charlotte Brontë
