Jane arrives at Lowood as a passionate little girl, who is deeply resentful of her aunt and cousins, but through the influence of Helen Burns and Miss Temple, Jane learns to control her feelings, and be comfortable, "I had given in allegiance to duty and order...I believed I was content...I appeared a disciplined and a subdued character". Miss Temple acts as a strong role model to Jane, and holds the qualities which Jane aspires to have: kindness, sensitivity to suffering of others and is determination to eradicate injustice, "I had imbibed from her something of her nature and much of her habits".

The initial description of her carrying a lamp is symbolic that Miss Temple is a saintly figure who encourages Jane throughout Lowood.

In fact, she was the daughter I never had. I breast fed her, nourished her, cared for her when she was sick and taught her many things. I knew all of her secrets and treasured them deeply. I believe I knew her better than anyone else, and what a beautiful girl she was, not in only in looks, but also in her personality. Juliet was an angel sent from God, and it is so sad to see her go back to heaven.

Sister Aloysius Sister Aloysius, who, we learn, is a widow, is a strong-minded superior of the strict, intervening school of religious life. She sees herself as an authority figure and what she says goes. This was the spirituality of God's will spoken through the Superior though, in retrospect, this often seems more the whim of the superior. She believes in discipline and she does not expect to be liked. She trusts her intuitions and assumes that they are correct.
I have no beliefs in Christian, so Hester only appears to me as a woman who pursues her liberty and protects her true love. But when her love story took place in a puritan-oriented society, she deserved to wear a burning “A” her entire life and live humbly. Unexpectedly, the society deprived her of everything except hope--- her little daughter, a wonderful child. Despite all of her sorrow, she manages to find redemptions compensating for her sin. And because of this, she later becomes a very respectable member of the community.

Her name defines a woman that came into the world pure and left out of the world as pure as she came in. Joan of Arc fought for what she believed in and that was her religious beliefs. She believed that God and her spirits chose her to complete a task that only she could have done at that particular time. In other words, her steps were ordered and designed in a particular manner. Her name still carries the powers as it did in her day; as if she was still breathing and fighting on the earth, because many believers still call her name in prayer with hopes that she will intercede on their behalf in order to obtain a favorable life.
