Nothing mattered much to me for a time there, after you told me you could never love me, Anne. There was nobody else -- there never could be anybody else for me but you. I've loved you ever since that day you broke your slate over my head in school.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
It's delightful when your imaginations come true, isn't it?
Lucy Maud Montgomery
You are the only person who loves me in the world, said Elizabeth. When you talk to me I smell violets.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
I can't cheer up — I don't want to cheer up. It's nicer to be miserable!
Lucy Maud Montgomery
We ought always to try to influence others for good.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
We came to the comforting conclusion that the Creator probably knew how to run His universe quite as well as we do, and that, after all, there are no such things as 'wasted' lives, saving and except when am individual wilfully squanders and wastes his own life.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
When one great passion seizes possession of the soul all other feelings are crowded out.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
I'd like to add some beauty to life, said Anne dreamily. I don't exactly want to make people KNOW more... though I know that IS the noblest ambition... but I'd love to make them have a pleasanter time because of me... to have some little joy or happy thought that would never have existed if I hadn't been born.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
