简爱-少数我能背下来的一段
"Do you think I can stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automaton?--a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!--I have as much soul as you,--and full as much heart! And 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, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh;--it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God's feet, equal,--as we are!"
“你以为我会留下来,做一个对你来说无足轻重的人吗?”你以为我是机器吗?——一台没有感情的机器?能忍受别人把我嘴里的一口面包抢走,把我杯子里的一滴活水泼出去吗?你以为就因为我贫穷、低微、平凡、矮小,我就没有灵魂、没有心吗?你想错了!我的灵魂和你一样丰富,我的心和你一样充实!如果上帝赐予我一些美貌和许多财富,我就会使你难以离开我,就像我现在难以离开你一样。我现在不是通过习俗、惯例,甚至也不是血肉之躯跟你说话,而是我的灵魂在跟你的灵魂说话。就好像我们俩都穿过坟墓,站在上帝脚下,彼此平等——本来如此!”
