Lucy Maud Montgomery
I know I chatter on far too much... but if you only knew how many things I want to say and don't. Give me SOME credit.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
I feel as though someone's handed me the moon... and I don't exactly know what to do with it.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
You see, she concluded miserably, when I can call like that to him across space--I belong to him. He doesn't love me--he never will--but I belong to him.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
It's not vanity to know your own good points. It would just be stupidity if you didn't It's only vanity when you get puffed up about them.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
