“It was unreal, grotesquely unreal, that morning skies which dawned so tenderly blue could be profaned with cannon smoke that hung over the town like low thunder clouds, that warm noontides filled with the piercing sweetness of massed honeysuckle and climbing roses could be so fearful, as shells screamed into the streets, bursting like the crack of doom, throwing iron splinters hundreds of yards, blowing people and animals to bits.”
― Margaret Mitchell, Gone with the Wind

“It was better to know the worst than to wonder.”
― Margaret Mitchell, Gone with the Wind

“You're so brutal to those who love you, Scarlett. You take their love and hold it over their heads like a whip.”
― Margaret Mitchell, Gone with the Wind

“I'd cut up my heart for you to wear if you wanted it.”
― Margaret Mitchell, Gone with the Wind
