We can't always take the most obvious road in life.

I went looking for my dreams outside of myself and discovered, it's not what the world holds for you, it's what you bring to it.

No matter where I go or how I change, I'll always be your Anne. Anne of Green Gables.

Oh, I know I'll improve. It's just that my life is a perfect graveyard of buried hopes now. That's a sentence I read once, and I say it over to comfort myself in these times that try the soul.

It does people good to have to do things they don't like in moderation.

I can't eat. I can never eat when I'm in the depths of despair.

I had the most beautiful set of theories you ever knew when I started out as a schoolma'am, but every one of them has failed me at some pinch or another.
