"How dare I, Mrs. Reed? How dare I? Because it is the truth." (98)
Truth is a major theme that plays in all of the novels we have read. Charlotte Bronte exposes the truth through the mouth of Jane Eyre. The young but blunt Jane expresses her true feelings about her Aunt in chapter four. This being early on in the book as well as in Jane's life, foreshadows the strong woman that she will develop into. Although Mrs. Reed and Jane have an extremely poor relationship, readers may discover that Jane would not be the same woman without her.
