简爱
"You should read the Bible, Jane. People who believe in Jesus Christ should love their enemies," said Helen. "Then I would love the Reed family, which is impossible." I cried. Helen listened carefully to the long story of my life at Gateshead. "Well," I asked at the end, "Mrs. Reed is a bad woman, isn't she? Don't you agree with me?" "It's true she is unkind, but only because she dislikes your faults. Look how angrily you remember every word! You would be happier if you tried to forget her scolding. Life is too short to hate other people, Jane. We all have faults, but when we die, only the pure flame of the spirit will be left. That's why I never think of revenge, I never consider life unfair. I live in calm, looking forward to the end." For a moment we both stayed silent. Then one of the big girls came up, calling,"Helen Burns! You go and put away your work immediately or I'll tell Miss Scatcherd!" Helen sighed, but stood up and silently obeyed her.
