Righteous love

I have read a lot of love novels,but only Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte seems to touch the bottom of my heart.
Firstly,it's love that stems from true trembling in the heart despite differences in age or social position.Jane is just a plain little governess & her master,Mr.Rochester is quite stern,old & not attractive at all.However,they are strongly pulled towards each other by an invisible force more than mere physical attraction,which time will prove.
I think we need courage to struggle for love & more difficultly,to say NO with love.When Jane knows that Rochester is already married,she resolves to leave him for not becoming his mistress.Unfaded love,set it free now for the return at last!
"The ease of his manner freed me from painful restraint; the friendly frankness, as correct as cordial, with which he treated me, drew me to him. And was Mr. Rochester now ugly in my eyes? No, reader: gratitude and many associates, all pleasurable and genial, made his face the object I best liked to see; his presence in a room was more cheering than the brightest fire."[/COLOR]
"I had not intended to love him; the reader knows I had wrought hard to extirpate from my soul the germs of love there detected; and now, at the first renewed view of him, they spontaneously revived, great and strong! He made me love him without looking at me."
