More quotes by Louisa May Alcott
life and love are very precious when both are in full bloom.
Louisa May Alcott

Jo's breath gave out here, and wrapping her head in the paper, she bedewed her little story with a few natural tears, for to be independent and earn the praise of those she loved were the dearest wishes of her heart, and this seemed to be the first step toward that happy end.
Louisa May Alcott
...a capital patient, as she never died and never got well.
Louisa May Alcott
Nothing is impossible to a determined woman.
Louisa May Alcott
Youth, health and freedom were meant to be enjoyed and I want to try every pleasure before I am too old to enjoy them.
Louisa May Alcott
Money is a needful and precious thing
Louisa May Alcott
Love is a beautifier.
Louisa May Alcott
Because they are mean is no reason why I should be. I hate such things, and though I think I've a right to be hurt, I don't intend to show it. (Amy March)
