Jean Webster Quotes

She was by nature a sunny soul Picture Quote #1

This is your heart. Keep it locked until the chap turns up who has the key Picture Quote #1

The world is so full of a number of things, I am sure we should all be as happy as kings. The world is full of happiness, and plenty to go round, if you are only willing to take the kind that comes your way Picture Quote #1

She was worshiping under the blue sky, to the jubilant chanting of the birds Picture Quote #1

I believe absolutely in my own free will and my own power to accomplish - and that is the belief that moves mountains Picture Quote #1

One can’t help thinking, Daddy, what a colourless life a man is forced to lead, when one reflects that chiffon and Venetian point and hand embroidery and Irish crochet are to him mere empty words. Whereas a woman- whether she is interested in babies or microbes or husbands or poetry or servants or parallelograms or gardens or Plato or bridge- is fundamentally and always interested in clothes Picture Quote #1

I ate breakfast in the kitchen by candle-light, and then drove the five miles to the station through the most glorious October colouring. The sun came up on the way, and the swamp maples and dogwood glowed crimson and orange and the stone walls and cornfields sparkled with hoar frost; the air was keen and clear and full of promise. I knew something was going to happen Picture Quote #1

Dear Daddy-Long-Legs, You never answered my question and it was very important. ARE YOU BALD? Picture Quote #1

Is it snowing where you are? All the world that I see from my tower is draped in white and the flakes are coming down as big as pop-corns. It’s late afternoon - the sun is just setting (a cold yellow colour) behind some colder violet hills, and I am up in my window seat using the last light to write to you Picture Quote #1

Getting an education is an awfully wearing process! Picture Quote #1

She never lets ideas interrupt the easy flow of her conversation Picture Quote #1

It’s much more entertaining to live books than to write them Picture Quote #1

It’s dreadful when two people’s senses of humor are antagonistic. I don’t believe there’s any bridging that gulf! Picture Quote #1

Oh, I’m developing a beautiful character! It droops a bit under cold and frost, but it does grow fast when the sun shines. That’s the way with everybody. I don’t agree with the theory that adversity and sorrow and disappointment develop moral strength. The happy people are the ones who are bubbling over with kindliness Picture Quote #1

I’m going to enjoy every second, and I’m going to know I’m enjoying it while I’m enjoying it. Most people don’t live; they just race. They are trying to reach some goal far away on the horizon, and in the heat of the going they get so breathless and panting that they lose sight of the beautiful, tranquil country they are passing through; and then the first thing they know, they are old and worn out, and it doesn’t make any difference whether they’ve reached the goal or not Picture Quote #1

Half of the time I don’t know what they’re talking about; their jokes seem to relate to a past that everyone but me has shared. I’m a foreigner in the world and I don’t understand the language Picture Quote #1

This is your heart.Keep it locked until the chap turns up who has the key Picture Quote #1

The world is full of happiness, and plenty to go round, if you are only willing to take the kind that comes your way Picture Quote #1

The more I study men, the more I realize that they are nothing in the world but boys grown too big to be spankable Picture Quote #1

It isn't the big pleasures that count the most; it's making a great deal out of the little ones Picture Quote #1
