― L.M. Montgomery, Anne of the Island

“Just walk fearlessly into the house of mourning, for grief is just love squaring up to its oldest enemy. And after all these mortal human years, love is up to the challenge.”

“I'm not a bit changed--not really. I'm only just pruned down and branched out. The real ME--back here--is just the same.

― Lucy Maud Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables
