a story about a boy who took a knife to his chest and carved himself open, showing ribs like mossy tree roots, his heart a bruised and wretched thing beneath. No one would want a heart like his. But he’d still cut it out and given it away.
“I've just been imagining that it was really me you wanted after all and that I was to stay here for ever and ever. It was a great comfort while it lasted. But the worst of imagining things is that the time comes when you have to stop and that hurts.”
― Anne of Green Gables

“What does the brain matter compared with the heart?”

“Dear old world', she murmured, 'you are very lovely, and I am glad to be alive in you.”

“It's so hard to get up again—although of course the harder it is the more satisfaction you have when you do get up, haven't you?”
― Anne of Green Gables
― Anne of Green Gables
“She belonged to a different age, but being so entire, so complete, would always stand up on the horizon, stone-white, eminent, like a lighthouse marking some past stage on this adventurous, long, long voyage, this interminable --- this interminable life.”
― Mrs. Dalloway
