What a wonderful thought it is that some of the best days of our lives haven't even happened yet.

I want something from Daddy that he is not able to give me. ... It is only that I long for Daddy's real love: not only as his child, but for me - Anne, myself.

Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character and goodness. People are just people, and all people have faults and shortcomings, but all of us are born with a basic goodness.

I believe that in the course of the next century the notion that it's a woman's duty to have children will change and make way for the respect and admiration of all women, who bear their burdens without complaint or a lot of pompous words!

Sympathy, Love, Fortune... We all have these qualities but still tend to not use them!

I have often been downcast, but never in despair.

The reason for my starting a diary is that I have no real friend.
