Lottie's Lit

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.

Inspired by the strength and resilience of Jane herself, this wax melt bar evokes the fierce passion of her spirit. Transform your reading space and bring the haunting beauty of Jane Eyre home.
