โย Donโt try to make me grow up before my time. โ
โย Love is a great beautifier. โ
โย I never wanted to go away, and the hard part now is leaving you all. โ
โย Iโm not afraid, but it seems as if I should be homesick for you even in heaven. โ
โย If I didnโt care about doing right and didnโt feel uncomfortable doing wrong, I should get on capitally. โ
โย When we make little sacrifices we like to have them appreciated, at least. โ
โย Donโt mind me. Iโm as happy as a cricket here. โ
โย You donโt need scores of suitors. You need only one, if heโs the right one. โ
โย Love casts out fear, and gratitude can conquer pride. โ
โย I am lonely, sometimes, but I dare say itโs good for me. โ
โย When you feel discontented, think over your blessings, and be grateful. โ
โย Let us be elegant or die! โ
โย Hearts, like flowers, cannot be rudely handled, but must open naturally. โ
โย I do think that families are the most beautiful things in all the world! โ
โย Be worthy love, and love will come. โ
โย Oh, my girls, however long you may live, I never can wish you a greater happiness than this! โ
โย The sincere wish to be good is half the battle. โ
โย The humblest tasks get beautified if loving hands do them. โ
โย I want to do something splendid before I go into my castleโsomething heroic, or wonderfulโthat wonโt be forgotten after Iโm dead. โ
โย I think I shall write books, and get rich and famous; that would suit me, so that is my favorite dream. โ
โย Donโt cry so bitterly, but remember this day, and resolve with all your soul that you will never know another like it. โ
โย Iโd rather take coffee than compliments just now. โ
โย Be comforted, dear soul! There is always light behind the clouds. โ
โย I donโt like to doze by the fire. โ
โย I like adventures, and Iโm going to find some. โ
โย I like good strong words that mean something. โ
โย Because they are mean is no reason why I should be. โ
โย I hate such things, and though I think Iโve a right to be hurt, I donโt intend to show it. โ
โย Conceit spoils the finest genius. โ
โย Watch and pray, dear, never get tired of trying, and never think it is impossible to conquer your fault. โ
โย I am angry nearly every day of my life. โ
โย Iโm not afraid of storms, for Iโm learning how to sail my ship. โ
โย For love casts out fear, and gratitude can conquer pride. โ
โย I keep turning over new leaves, and spoiling them. โ
โย I make so many beginnings there never will be an end. โ
โย Some people seemed to get all sunshine, and some all shadow. โ
โย I donโt pretend to be wise, but I am observing, and I see a great deal more than youโd imagine. โ
โย Iโm interested in other peopleโs experiences and inconsistencies, and, though I canโt explain, I remember and use them for my own benefit. โ
โย Iโm not like the rest of you; I never made any plans about what Iโd do when I grew up. โ
โย I never thought of being married. โ
โย I wish I had no heart, it aches so. โ
โย Wouldnโt it be fun if all the castles in the air which we make could come true and we could live in them? โ
โย Youโre an angel! How shall I ever thank you? โ
โย I have nothing to give but my heart so full and these empty hands. โ
โย Take some books and read; thatโs an immense help; and books are always good company if you have the right sort. โ
โย Life and love are very precious when both are in full bloom. โ
โย I could have been a great many things. โ
โย Talent isnโt genius, and no amount of energy can make it so. โ
โย I want to be great, or nothing. โ
โย If we are all alive ten years hence, letโs meet, and see how many of us have got our wishes, or how much nearer we are then than now. โ
โย You have grown abominably lazy, and you like gossip, and waste time on frivolous things. โ
โย I hate ordinary people! โ
โย Now and then, in this workaday world, things do happen in the delightful storybook fashion, and what a comfort that is. โ
โย You are like a chestnut burr, prickly outside, but silky-soft within, and a sweet kernel, if one can only get at it. โ
โย Love will make you show your heart someday, and then the rough burr will fall off. โ
โย Weโll all grow up, no pretending we wonโt. โ
โย If I didnโt care about doing right and didnโt feel uncomfortable doing wrong, I should get on capitally. โ
โย I canโt help seeing that you are very lonely, and sometimes there is a hungry look in your eyes that goes to my heart. โ
โย Love covers a multitude of sins. โ
โย It takes people a long time to learn the difference between talent and genius, especially ambitious young men and women. โ
โย But, like all happiness, it did not last long. โ
โย I do think that families are the most beautiful things in all the world! โ
โย How happy and good weโd be, if we had no worries! โ
โย I think we are all hopelessly flawed. โ
โย Whereโs the use of looking nice, when no one sees me but those cross midgets, and no one cares whether Iโm pretty or not? โ
โย Nothing remained but loneliness and grief. โ
โย I donโt think secrets agree with me, I feel rumpled up in mind since you told me that. โ
โย Nothing seemed impossible in the beginning. โ
