More quotes by Louisa May Alcott
Oh, Jo, how could you? Your one beauty.
Louisa May Alcott
We all have our own life to pursue, our own kind of dream to be weaving, and we all have the power to make wishes come true, as long as we keep believing.
Louisa May Alcott
Money is a needful and precious thing, and when well used, a noble thing, but I never want you to think it is the first or only prize to strive for. I'd rather see you poor men's wives, if you were happy, beloved, contented, than queens on thrones, without self-respect and peace.
Louisa May Alcott
…tomorrow was her birthday, and she was thinking how fast the years went by, how old she was getting, and how little she seemed to have accomplished. Almost twenty-five and nothing to show for it.
Louisa May Alcott
...for love casts out fear, and gratitude can conquer pride.
Louisa May Alcott
Wild roses are fairest, and nature a better gardener than art.
Louisa May Alcott
Love is apt to make lunatics of even men and saints.
Louisa May Alcott
Human minds are more full of mysteries than any written book and more changeable than the cloud shapes in the air.

Louisa May Alcott
And the good fairy said, I won't leave you money or pretty dresses but I will leave you the spirit to seek your fortune from your own efforts.
Louisa May Alcott
Men are always ready to die for us, but not to make our lives worth having. Cheap sentiment and bad logic.
Louisa May Alcott
Liberty must not be abused.
Louisa May Alcott
…to the inspiration of necessity, we owe half the wise, beautiful, and useful blessings of the world.
Louisa May Alcott
It takes two flints to make a fire.
Louisa May Alcott
People don't have fortunes left them in that style nowadays men have to work and women to marry for money. It's a dreadfully unjust world.
Louisa May Alcott
I don't worry about the storms, I am learning to sail my own ship.
Louisa May Alcott
My father taught in the wise way which unfolds what lies in the child
Louisa May Alcott
Now we are expected to be as wise as men who have had generations of all the help there is, and we scarcely anything.
Louisa May Alcott
