More quotes by Lucy Maud Montgomery
But I'd rather look like you than be pretty, she told Anne sincerely. Anne laughed, sipped honey from the tribute, and cast away the sting.
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
The beauty of winter is that it makes you appreciate spring.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
We should regret our mistakes and learn from them, but never carry them forward into the future with us.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
It was rapture enough just to sit there beside him in silence, alone in the summer night in the white splendor of moonshine, with the wind blowing down on them out of the pine woods.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Kindred spirits are not so scarce as I used to think. It's splendid to find out there are so many of them in the world.
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
When I left Queen's my future seemed to stretch out before me like a straight road. I thought I could see along it for many a milestone. Now there is a bend in it. I don't know what lies around the bend, but I'm going to believe that the best does.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
The woods are never solitary--they are full of whispering, beckoning, friendly life. But the sea is a mighty soul, forever moaning of some great, unshareable sorrow, which shuts it up into itself for all eternity.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
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
I'm just tired of everything…even of the echoes. There is nothing in my life but echoes…echoes of lost hopes and dreams and joys. They're beautiful and mocking.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
“You 're not eating anything,” said Marilla sharply, eying her as if it were a serious shortcoming. Anne sighed. “I can 't. I'm in the depths of despair. Can you eat when you are in the depths of despair?”
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Don't be ridiculous, please.' The most insulting words in the world!
Lucy Maud Montgomery
I've a pocket full of dreams to sell, said Teddy, whimsically,... What d'ye lack? What d'ye lack? A dream of success--a dream of adventure--a dream of the sea--a dream of the woodland--any kind of a dream you want at reasonable prices, including one or two unique little nightmares. What will you give me for a dream?
Lucy Maud Montgomery
There is so much in the world for us all if we only have the eyes to see it, and the heart to love it, and the hand to gather it to ourselves--so much in men and women, so much in art and literature, so much everywhere in which to delight, and for which to be thankful.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
... we always love best the people who need us.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
I do know my own mind,' protested Anne. 'The trouble is, my mind changes and then I have to get acquainted with it all over again.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
There are plenty of people, in Avonlea and out of it, who can attend closely to their neighbours' business by dint of neglecting their own but Mrs. Rachel Lynde was one of those capable creatures who can manage their own concerns and those of other folks into the bargain.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
