| 38bddd4 | Oh, sometimes, I think it is of no use to make friends. They only go out of your life after awhile and leave a hurt that is worse than the emptiness before they came. | L.M. Montgomery | ||
| 087fa43 | Above all she wanted to make him speak. She felt instinctively that nothing in the world would punish him so much as to be tricked into speaking when he was determined not to.

And we had painted and papered it all so nice before they came." "There" | L.M. Montgomery | ||

| 386cb80 | How beautiful the old Glen was, in its August ripeness, with its chain of bowery old homesteads, tilled meadows and quiet gardens. The western sky was like a great golden pearl. Far down the harbour was frosted with a dawning moonlight.

"A little girl like you should be ashamed of talking so about a lady and a stranger," she said severely. "Go back and sit down quietly and hold your tongue and behave as a good girl should." "I'll try to do and be anything you want me, if you'll only keep me," said Anne, returning meekly to her ottoman. When.. | L.M. Montgomery | ||

| 342713f | I wish I could like the baby a little bit. It would make things easier. But I don't. I've heard people say that when you took care of a baby you got fond of it--but you don't--I don't, anyway. | L.M. Montgomery | ||

| b8beffe | I'm so different," sighed Hazel. It was really dreadful to be so different from other people . . . and yet rather wonderful, too, as if you were a being strayed from another star.
