Behind them in the garden the little stone house brooded among the shadows. It was lonely but not forsaken. It had not yet done with dreams and laughter and the joy of life there were to be future summers for the little stone house meanwhile, it could wait.

It's a serious thing to grow up, isn't it, Marilla?
Lucy Maud Montgomery
No use in taking a cat's opinion of a dog.
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
Don't you know that it is only very foolish folk who talk sense all the time?
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
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 noticed that I wore this outfit twice? Why, the only thing you wear twice is a sour expression.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Fancies are like shadows...you can't cage them, they're such wayward, dancing things.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
There is no such thing as freedom on earth, he said. Only different kinds of bondages. And comparative bondages. YOU think you are free now because you've escaped from a peculiarly unbreakable kind of bondage. But are you? You love me - THAT'S a bondage.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
It's the fools that make all the trouble in the world, not the wicked.
