I would always rather be happy than dignified Charlotte Brontë Jane Eyre

Lottie's Lit

Lottie's literary thoughts about this product

Jane Eyre rejects societal expectations with the quote "I would always rather be happy than dignified" in favour of her happiness and authenticity. In the novel, Jane consistently chooses emotional fulfilment over social conventions, whether in her relationships or in her choices for personal freedom. This quote encapsulates her belief that true happiness cannot be sacrificed for the sake of maintaining an external sense of dignity, especially when it leads to self-denial. Jane's willingness to follow her heart, even when it conflicts with the rigid norms of her time, underscores her strength as a character.

Similarly, Charlotte Brontë, through Jane, challenges Victorian society’s prescribed roles for women, emphasising that personal joy and emotional integrity are more important than conforming to social expectations. Brontë’s portrayal of Jane as a woman who prioritises happiness over societal approval is a bold statement against the limitations placed on women of her era, making Jane Eyre a timeless exploration of self-worth and autonomy.

Brontë's depiction of Jane as a woman who values happiness over societal approval boldly challenges the constraints placed on women of her time, making Jane Eyre a timeless exploration of self-worth and independence.

Fragrance

Queen of the Quill

A unique, powerful fragrance. This scent is really different; it's long lasting and comforting and simply beautiful if you like a hint of spice in your fragrances. With an impressive scent throw, this fragrance will fill your home effortlessly.

  • Top Notes: Warming spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg that are cut through beautifully with fresh, zesty lemon. A touch of Spring to a rich scent.
  • Heart Notes: The spicy top notes melt into a beautiful array of rich gardenia to complement the lemon and the warmer aromas. Truly unique and inspiring.
  • Base Notes: The final scents settle down into frankincense, sweet amber, patchouli and musk to give this fragrance a wonderfully earthy and natural essence.

Too charming to melt? We thought so too, so why not enhance your order with a jute pouch of our botanical wax melts removing all guilt of melting your pretty ones too soon.

Don't forget to add a display stand to show off your bar while enjoying the scent for up to two weeks.
