A few of my favoritest quotes from the book:
Marilla to Matthew: Anyhow,we've decided on the experiment and goodness only knows what will come of it.
Anne to Mrs. Barry: I am well in body although considerably rumpled up in spirit.
Rachel Lynde (as quoted by Anne to Marilla): Sound doctrine in the man and good housekeeping in the woman make an ideal combination for a minister's family.
Anne to Marilla: It's always wrong to do anything you can't tell the minister's wife. It's as good as an extra conscience to have a minister's wife for your friend.
Anne to Marilla: I know I talk too much, but I am really trying to overcome it, and although I say far too much, yet if you only knew how many things I want to say and don't, you'd give me some credit for it.
