If you are a Gemini, your horoscope today comes with a
Jane Eyre quote, courtesy of the
Orlando Weekly.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) “I need not sell my soul to buy bliss,” says a character in Charlotte Brontë’s 19th-century novel Jane Eyre. “I have an inward treasure born with me, which can keep me alive if all extraneous delights should be withheld, or offered only at a price I cannot afford to give.” This would be a great speech for you to memorize and periodically recite in the next two weeks. Do it in front of your mirror at least once a day to remind yourself of how amazingly resourceful you are. It will also help you resist the temptation to seek gifts from people who can’t or won’t give them to you. (Rob Brezsny)
Too bad that all that is said mockingly in the novel by Mr Rochester passing as a gypsy fortune teller saying what he thought Jane would be thinking (chapter XIX).

[...] John Kazek plays a number of roles, said Bissett, "from the Albanian pimp to the friendly punter to the Nigerian father. John is a much-loved Scottish actor whom I saw perform in 'Wuthering Heights' when I was still at school. I knew then at 13 [that] I wanted to work with him when I grew up." (Julia Borcherts)
