More quotes by Lucy Maud Montgomery
We ought always to try to influence others for good.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
We've had a beautiful friendship, Diana. We've never marred it by one quarrel or coolness or unkind word and I hope it will always be so. But things can't be quite the same after this. You'll have other interests. I'll just be on the outside.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Make a little room in your plans for romance again, Anne, girl. All the degrees and scholarships in the world can’t make up for the lack of it. ~Aunt Josephine to Anne in Anne Of Green Gables
Lucy Maud Montgomery

Lucy Maud Montgomery
I am simply a book drunkard.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
When one great passion seizes possession of the soul all other feelings are crowded out.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Life owes me something more than it has paid me and I'm going out to collect it.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
She asked me what made me do such a thing. That is an awkward question because I often can't tell what makes me do things. Sometimes I do them just to find out what I feel like doing them. And sometimes I do them because I want to have some exciting things to tell my grandchildren.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
It's the fools that make all the trouble in the world, not the wicked.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
There be three gentle and goodlie things, To be here, To be together, And to think well of one another.
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 so hard to get up again—although of course the harder it is the more satisfaction you have when you do get up, haven't you?
Lucy Maud Montgomery
To dispair is to turn your back on God.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
