Anne of Green Gables

"The most romantic spot I ever discovered."

"I've learned more about myself this year than ever before."

"But I think I could be a very wicked girl if I only had the chance."

"I do love to imagine things and make believe."

"There are so many unpleasant things in the world already."

"I'm not a bit afraid of hard work when there's a purpose in it."

"You have to be awfully good or awfully bad to get talked about in Avonlea."

"I think I am a great deal more interesting than I was when I first came here."

"I want to be a credit to Avonlea and especially to you."

"I'm going to do everything in my power to acquire a social position."

"I wish I could have a new name—one that's more interesting."

"I suppose you have to take the bitter with the sweet."

"But I just love adventures and there's such a lot of adventure in Avonlea."

"What's the use of being good if nobody appreciates it?"

"I think the world has changed since I was young."

"The secret of the Lord is with those who fear Him."

"Kindred spirits are not so scarce as I used to think."

"I don't want to be a girl if you can't do anything without asking permission."

"It's splendid to have ambitions but it's not easy to achieve them."

"I feel as if I'm in a tragedy and must go through with it."

"When you say a thing three times, it's true."

"I'd rather be a character in a book than a real girl any day."

"Books are such a wonderful way to escape from the world when it's too much with you."

"If you have a friend you feel as if you can bear anything."

"I simply must have a bosom friend."

"Isn't Diana just the loveliest creature you ever saw?"

"What a splendid thing it is to be educated!"

"I promise to behave better and never do wicked things again."

"I feel as though I want to make a fresh start and be a new Anne."

"There's such a lot of different Annes in me."
