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