 Exemple de propoziții și/sau fraze: 

"Yes, sir, I will advertise immediately: and meantime, I suppose—" I was going to say, I suppose I may stay here, till I find another shelter to betake myself to: but I stopped, feeling it would not do to risk a long sentence, for my voice was not quite under command.

(Jane Eyre, de Charlotte Brontë)

You need not think that because we chanced to be born of the same parents, I shall suffer you to fasten me down by even the feeblest claim: I can tell you this—if the whole human race, ourselves excepted, were swept away, and we two stood alone on the earth, I would leave you in the old world, and betake myself to the new.

(Jane Eyre, de Charlotte Brontë)
