Hi. I am writing about Jane Eyre at Lowood. I have written about Helen Burns and Miss Temple and how they are contributing in her change.
But I need two examples and one direct quote, which shows a change in the character?
Would anybody like to share such a quote, or perhaps tell me in what chapter I could find one?
You might try the chapters when she is at Lowood. I don't mean to be condescending, but there are not that many of them. For better results, try looking for a quote at the start of her schooling and one at the end.
I wrote a poem on a leaf and it blew away...
There is a bit there where everyone is ill (and Helen is about to die) when something happens. It's quite symbolic, though, so I don't know whether you're looking for that but it sure is a powerul quote.
One has to laugh before being happy, because otherwise one risks to die before having laughed.
