Lucy Maud Montgomery
I have a dream, he said slowly. I persist in dreaming it, although it has often seemed to me that it could never come true. I dream of a home with a hearth-fire in it, a cat and dog, the footsteps of friends -- and YOU!
Lucy Maud Montgomery
I must be getting old ... People are beginning to tell me I look so young. They never tell you that when you are young.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
When people mean to be good to you, you don't mind very much when they're not quite—always.

Lucy Maud Montgomery
I don't want sunbursts and marble halls. I just want YOU. Sunbursts and marble halls may be all very well, but there is more 'scope for imagination' without them. And as for the waiting, that doesn't matter. We'll just be happy, waiting and working for each other—and dreaming. Oh, dreams will be very sweet now.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Why must people kneel down to pray? If I really wanted to pray I’ll tell you what I'd do. I'd go out into a great big field all alone or in the deep, deep woods and I'd look up into the sky—up—up—up—into that lovely blue sky that looks as if there was no end to its blueness. And then I'd just feel a prayer.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
I couldn't live where there were no trees--something vital in me would starve.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
The night was clear and frosty, all ebony of shadow and silver of snowy slope big stars were shining over the silent fields here and there the dark pointed firs stood up with snow powdering their branches and the wind whistling through them.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
An old house with its windows gone always makes me think of something dead with its eyes picked out.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
The woods call to us with a hundred voices, but the sea has one only — a mighty voice that drowns our souls in its majestic music. The woods are human, but the sea is of the company of the archangels.
