"I coveted a cake of bread. With that refreshment I could perhaps reagain a degree of energy; without out, it would be difficult to proceed." Pg: 328
Jane may have been better off staying in Thornfield. At least there, there is food, water, and shelter. I don't believe that Jane fully thought this through because she has no money for food or lodging, she has no idea about how the outside world trully works, and she is inable to protect herself if something were to happen to her. Thus, she is forced to beg and grovle for food, this goes against every fiber of her being to perform self-degradation, but she must if she wants to live and its that primal instinct that allows her to keep going and help her survive what the world throws at her. Althoug in the end she is able to get food, she never has enough to fully sustain her and keep her strong, which will eventually lead her to become weaker and weaker with every day that she does not attain the essentials to living.
