“I cannot go with you all the way on your journey, but I would go as far as I might”

“But I wish you to know that, were I just Edward and you just Jane, I would prefer to marry you. We accord well together, and have similar views… Kings cannot make their own choices. I wished you to know that”

“If only they would all just leave me alone with my books and my letters, I would be content to let life, and the world pass me by”

“I steel myself to ignore his taunts and his coarse language. I no longer care what he says or does. It doesn't matter anymore. I am detached, contained in my own private world where he cannot reach me. It is my last refuge.”

“My lady, for your virtue and goodness, God would receive you in rags.”

“You must pray to God for forgiveness because I can give you none”

“I prefer to be left alone with my books.”
