quote
If all the world hated you and believed you wicked, while your own conscience approved of you and absolved you from guilt, you would not be without friends.

from Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë

And please, darlings, don’t take this to mean that you should do anything you want because you want to do it and won’t feel guilty about it. I believe her meaning is far nobler than that, that you should face a disapproving, hateful world and hold true to your own standards without flinching.
