More quotes by Margaret Mitchell
. . . She knew only that if she did or said thus-and-so, men would unerringly respond with the complimentary thus-and-so. It was like a mathematical formula and no more difficult, for mathematics was the one subject that had come easy to Scarlett in her schooldays.
Margaret Mitchell
There ain't nothin' from the outside can lick any of us.
Margaret Mitchell
Take my handkerchief, Scarlett. Never, at any crisis of your life, have I known you to have a handkerchief.

It's a curse - this not wanting to look on naked realities. Until the war, life was never more real to me than a shadow show on a curtain. And I preferred it so. I do not like the outlines of things to be too sharp. I like them gently blurred, a little hazy.
Margaret Mitchell
God help the man who ever really loves you.
Margaret Mitchell
No, my dear, I'm not in love with you, no more than you are with me, and if I were, you would be the last person I'd ever tell. God help the man who ever really loves you. You'd break his heart, my darling, cruel, destructive little cat who is so careless and confident she doesn't even trouble to sheathe her claws.

How closely women clutch the very chains that bind them!
Margaret Mitchell
No matter what rallying cries the orators give to the idiots who fight, no matter what noble purposes they assign to wars, there is never but one reason for a war. And that is money. All wars are in reality money squabbles.
Margaret Mitchell
She hasn't your strength. She's never had any strength. She's never had anything but heart.
Margaret Mitchell
Scarlett, always save something to fear—even as you save something to love.
Margaret Mitchell
If he's forgotten me, I'll make him remember me. I'll make him want me again.
Margaret Mitchell
I won't need you to rescue meM. I can take care of myself, thank you. - Scarlett O'Hara.
Margaret Mitchell
You should be kissed and by someone who knows how.
Margaret Mitchell
The world can forgive practically anything except people who mind their own business.

I loved something I made up
