“Folks are usually about as happy as they make their minds up to be.”
― Abraham Lincoln

“I can't help flying up on the wings of anticipation. It's as glorious as soaring through a sunset... almost pays for the thud.”
― Lucy Maud Montgomery

“Make a little room in your plans for romance again, Anne, girl. All the degrees and scholarships in the world can’t make up for the lack of it. ~Aunt Josephine to Anne in Anne Of Green Gables”
― Lucy Maud Montgomery

“Comedy and tragedy are so mixed up in life, Gilbert. The only thing that haunts me is that tale of the two who lived together fifty years and hated each other all that time. I can't believe they really did. Somebody has said that 'hate is only love that has missed its way.' I feel sure that under the hatred they really loved each other . . . just as I really loved you all those years I thought I hated you . . . and I think death would show it to them. I'm glad I found out in life.”
― Lucy Maud Montgomery, Anne of Windy Poplars
