“I only mean to say that I have a feeling that it never was intended I should live long.
I'm not like the rest of you; I never made any plans about what I'd do when I grew up; I never thought of being married, as you all did. I couldn't seem to imagine myself anything but stupid little Beth, trotting about at home, of no use anywhere but there.” 💔💔

“don't like reformers, and I hope you will never try to be one.”
"I do like them, and I shall be one if I can, for in spite of the laughing the world would never get on without them. We can't agree about that, for you belong to the old set, and I to the new.”

“It can never be the same again. I’ve lost my best friend.” Sighed Jo. “You’ve got me, anyhow. I’m not good for much, I know but I’ll stand by you, Jo, all the days of my life. Upon my word I will.” and Laurie meant what he said.


Finally finished part 1!! I love this book so much 😭🩷

“She has learned to think of other people more and of herself less, and has decided to try and mold her character as carefully as she molds her little clay figures. I am glad of this for though I should be very proud of a graceful statue made by her, I shall be infinitely prouder of a lovable daughter with a talent for making life beautiful to herself and others.”

“And she’ll go and fall in love, and there’s an end of peace and fun, and cozy times together.” Thinking abt how Jo doesn’t want childhood to end. She just wants things to stay the same as they’ve always been between her and her sisters and Laurie too.

“She can’t love Bethy as I do, and she won’t miss her as I shall. Beth is my conscience, and I can’t give her up. I can’t! I can’t!” Mannn :(
