More quotes by Lucy Maud Montgomery
The point of good writing is knowing when to stop.
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
I wish every one in the world was as warm and sheltered as we are tonight.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
I can't cheer up — I don't want to cheer up. It's nicer to be miserable!
Lucy Maud Montgomery
When one great passion seizes possession of the soul all other feelings are crowded out.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
People who don't like cats always seem to think there is some peculiar virtue in not liking them.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Humor is the spiciest condiment in the feast of existence. Laugh at your mistakes but learn from them, joke over your troubles but gather strength from them, make a jest of your difficulties but overcome them.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
She will love deeply--suffer terribly--she will have glorious moments to compensate.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Kindred spirits alone do not change with the changing years.
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
I have learned to look upon each little hindrance as a jest and each great one as a foreshadowing of victory.
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
Perhaps, after all, romance did not come into one's life with pomp and blare... Perhaps it crept to one's side like an old friend through quiet ways.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Fancies are like shadows...you can't cage them, they're such wayward, dancing things.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Love you! Girl, you're in the very core of my heart. I hold you there like a jewel. Didn't I promise you I'd never tell you a lie? Love you! I love you with all there is of me to love. Heart, soul, brain. Every fibre of body and spirit thrilling to the sweetness of you. There's nobody in the world for me but you, Valancy.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Don't you know that it is only very foolish folk who talk sense all the time?
Lucy Maud Montgomery
But really, Marilla, one can't stay sad very long in such an interesting world, can one?
Lucy Maud Montgomery
I like to hear a storm at night. It is so cosy to snuggle down among the blankets and feel that it can't get at you.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Facts are stubborn things, but, as some one has wisely said, not half so stubborn as fallacies.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
We are both going to pray that we may live together all our lives and die the same day.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
