"When twilight drops her curtain down And pins it with a star Remember that you have a friend Though she may wander far."

Friendship

"You must pay the penalty of growing-up, Paul. You must leave fairyland behind you."

Growth

"November is usually such a disagreeable month...as if the year had suddenly found out that she was growing old and could do nothing but weep and fret over it. This year is growing old gracefully...just like a stately old lady who knows she can be charming even with gray hair and wrinkles. We've had lovely days and delicious twilights."

Aging

Loss

Look at that sea, girls - all silver and shallow and vision of things not seen. We couldn't enjoy its loveliness any more if we had millions of dollars and ropes of diamonds."

Wealth

"To love is easy and therefore common - but to understand - how rare it is!"

Love

"I feel as if I had opened a book and found roses of yesterday sweet and fragrant, between its leaves."

Memory

"I guess ice cream is one of those things that are beyond imagination."

Happiness

"Mrs Lynde says, "Blessed are they who expect nothing, for they shall not be disappointed." But I think it would be worse to expect nothing than to be disappointed."
