I had a pleasant time with my mind, for it was happy.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

They were enjoying the happy h...

They were enjoying the happy hour that seldom comes but once in any life, the magical moment which bestows youth on the old, beauty on the plain, wealth on the poor, and gives human hearts a foretaste of heaven.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

Mrs. Jo did not mean the measl...

Mrs. Jo did not mean the measles, but that more serious malady called love, which is apt to ravage communities, spring and autumn, when winter gayety and summer idleness produce whole bouquets of engagements, and set young people to pairing off like the birds.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

I may be strong-minded, but no...

I may be strong-minded, but no one can say I'm out of my sphere now, for woman's special mission is supposed to be drying tears and bearing burdens

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

I'll try to be what Father lov...

I'll try to be what Father loves to call me, a 'little woman,' and not be rough and wild but do my duty here instead of wanting to be somewhere else.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

We've got minds and souls as w...

We've got minds and souls as well as hearts; ambition and talents as well as beauty and accomplishments; and we want to live and learn as well as love and be loved. I'm sick of being told that is all a woman is fit for! I won't have anything to do with love until I prove that I am something beside a housekeeper and a baby-tender!

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

I never knew how much like hea...

I never knew how much like heaven this world could be, when two people love and live for one another!

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

Work is and always has been my salvation and I thank the Lord for it.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

{Mrs. March to Jo} You are too...

{Mrs. March to Jo} You are too much alike and too fond of freedom, not to mention hot tempers and strong wills, to get on happily together, in a relation which needs infinite patience and forbearance, as well as love.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

Go out more, keep cheerful as ...

Go out more, keep cheerful as well as busy, for you are the sunshine-maker of the family, and if you get dismal there is no fair weather.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

Laurie felt just then that his heart was entirely broken and the world a howling wilderness.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

And the good fairy said, I won...

And the good fairy said, I won't leave you money or pretty dresses but I will leave you the spirit to seek your fortune from your own efforts.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

Wealth is certainly a most des...

Wealth is certainly a most desirable thing, but poverty has its sunny side, and one of the sweet uses of adversity is the genuine satisfaction which comes from hearty work of head or hand, and to the inspiration of necessity, we owe half the wise, beautiful, and useful blessings of the world.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

Men are often bad, but babies never are.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

When I had youth I had no mone...

When I had youth I had no money; now I have the money I have no time; and when I get the time, if I ever do, I shall have no health to enjoy life. I suppose it's the discipline I need; but it's rather hard to love the things I do, and see them go by because duty chains me to my galley. If I ever come into port with all sails set, that will be my reward perhaps.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

Many wise and true sermons are...

Many wise and true sermons are preached us everyday by unconscious ministers in street, school, office, or home; even a fair table may become a pulpit, if it can offer the good and helpful words which are never out of season.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

For with eyes made clear by ma...

For with eyes made clear by many tears, and a heart softened by the tenderest sorrow, she recognized the beauty of her sister's lifeЂ'uneventful, unambitious, yet full of the genuine virtues which 'smell sweet, and blossom in the dust', the self-forgetfulness that makes the humblest on earth remembered soonest in heaven, the true success which is possible to all.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

Your father, Jo. He never lose...

Your father, Jo. He never loses patience, never doubts or complains, but always hopes, and works and waits so cheerfully that one is ashamed to do otherwise before him.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

It's a great comfort to have an artistic sister.

Louisa Alcott 392 quotes

There was a good deal of laughing and kissing and explaining, in the simple, loving fashion which makes these home-festivals so pleasant at the time, so sweet to remember long afterward, and then all fell to work.
