Gilbert, I'm afraid I'm scandalously in love with you.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Reading stories is bad enough but writing them is worse.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
I know I haven't much sense or sobriety, but I've got what is ever so much better — the knack of making people like me.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Yes, it's beautiful,' said Gilbert, looking steadily down into Anne's uplifted face, 'but wouldn't it have been more beautiful still, Anne, if there had been no separation or misunderstanding . . . if they had come hand in hand all the way through life, with no memories behind them but those which belonged to each other?
Lucy Maud Montgomery
She seemed to walk in an atmosphere of things about to happen.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
To love is easy and therefore common - but to understand - how rare it is!

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

Lucy Maud Montgomery

Lucy Maud Montgomery
I know you're a fool, Jim Hardy, but for heaven's sake pretend you're not for five minutes.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
If it's IN you to climb you must -- there are those who MUST lift their eyes to the hills -- they can't breathe properly in the valleys.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
I can just imagine myself sitting down at the head of the table and pouring out the tea, said Anne, shutting her eyes ecstatically. And asking Diana if she takes sugar! I know she doesn't but of course I'll ask her just as if I didn't know.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
She looks just as music sounds, I think,' answered Anne.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Kindred spirits alone do not change with the changing years.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
There are many worse friends than the soft, silent, furry, cat-folk.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
You may tire of reality but you never tire of dreams.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Since ever the world was spinning And till the world shall end You've your man in the beginning Or you have him in the end, But to have him from start to finish And neither nor borrow nor lend Is what all of the girls are wanting And none of the gods can send
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Dogs want only love but cats demand worship.
