More quotes by Anne Frank
I feel wicked sleeping in a warm bed, while my dearest friends have been knocked down or have fallen into a gutter somewhere out in the cold night. I get frightened when I think of close friends who have now been delivered into the hands of the cruelest brutes that walk the earth. And all because they are Jews!
Anne Frank
If God lets me live, I shall attain more than Mummy ever has done, I shall not remain insignificant, I shall work in the world and for mankind!
Anne Frank
Everyone thinks I'm showing off when I talk, ridiculous when I'm silent, insolent when I answer, cunning when I have a good idea, lazy when I'm tired, selfish when I eat one bite more than I should.
Anne Frank
Paper is more patient than man.
Anne Frank
People who give will never be poor.
Anne Frank
Yes, there is no doubt that paper is patient and as I don't intend to show this cardboard-covered notebook, bearing the proud name of diary, to anyone, unless I find a real friend, boy or girl, probably nobody cares. And now I come to the root of the matter, the reason for my starting a diary: it is that I have no such real friend.
Anne Frank
I hid myself within myself ... and quietly wrote down all my joys, sorrows and contempt in my diary.
Anne Frank

Anne Frank
As long as you're in the food business, why not make sweets?
Anne Frank
I don't want to have lived in vain like most people. I want to be useful or bring enjoyment to all people, even those I've never met. I want to go on living even after my death!
Anne Frank
How wonderful it is that we can start doing good at this very moment.
Anne Frank
Although I'm only fourteen, I know quite well what I want, I know who is right and who is wrong. I have my opinions, my own ideas and principles, and although it may sound pretty mad from an adolescent, I feel more of a person than a child, I feel quite indepedent of anyone.
Anne Frank
I simply can't imagine the world will ever be normal again for us. I do talk about after the war, but it's as if I'm talking about a castle in the air, something that can never come true.
Anne Frank
We can't control our destiny, but we can control who we become.
Anne Frank
Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.
Anne Frank
I must uphold my ideals, for perhaps the time will come when I shall be able to carry them out.
Anne Frank
by thinking, nobody can ever get worse but will only get better.
Anne Frank
We're not the only people that have had to suffer, there have always been people that've had to.
Anne Frank
Memories mean more to me than dresses.
Anne Frank
I know what I want, I have a goal, an opinion, I have a religion and love. Let me be myself and then I am satisfied. I know that I’m a woman, a woman with inward strength and plenty of courage.
Anne Frank
