Margaret Mitchell Quotes

It was not often that she was alone like this and she did not like it. When she was alone she had to think and, these days, thoughts were not so pleasant Picture Quote #1

I wonder if anyone but me realizes what goes on in that head back of your deceptively sweet face Picture Quote #1

He made her play and she had almost forgotten how. Life had been so serious and so bitter. He knew how to play and swept her along with him Picture Quote #1

Now you are beginning to think for yourself instead of letting others think for you. That’s the beginning of wisdom Picture Quote #1

Well, my dear, take heart. Some day, I will kiss you and you will like it. But not now, so I beg you not to be too impatient Picture Quote #1

She hasn’t your strength. She’s never had any strength. She’s never had anything but heart Picture Quote #1

They were always like two people talking to each other in different languages. But she loved him so much, when he withdrew as he had now done, it was like the warm sun going down and leaving her in chilly twilight dews Picture Quote #1

All really nice girls wonder when men don’t try to kiss them. They know they shouldn’t want them to and they know they must act insulted if they do, but just the same, they wish the men would try Picture Quote #1

Now he saw that she understood entirely too well and he felt the usual masculine indignation at the duplicity of women. Added to it was the usual masculine disillusionment in discovering that a woman has a brain Picture Quote #1

It had been so long since she had seen him and she had lived on memories until they were worn thin Picture Quote #1

Like most girls, her imagination carried her just as far as the altar and no further Picture Quote #1

The green eyes in the carefully sweet face were turbulent, willful, lusty with life, distinctly at variance with her decorous demeanor. Her manners had been imposed upon her... her eyes were her own Picture Quote #1

Every problem has two handles. You can grab it by the handle of fear or the handle of hope Picture Quote #1

No matter what rallying cries the orators give to the idiots who fight, no matter what noble purposes they assign to wars, there is never but one reason for a war. And that is money. All wars are in reality money squabbles Picture Quote #1

Once, when she was six years old, she had fallen from a tree, flat on her stomach. She could still recall that sickening interval before breath came back into her body. Now, as she looked at him, she felt the same way she had felt then, breathless, stunned, nauseated Picture Quote #1

No, my dear, I’m not in love with you, no more than you are with me, and if I were, you would be the last person I’d ever tell. God help the man who ever really loves you. You’d break his heart, my darling, cruel, destructive little cat who is so careless and confident she doesn’t even trouble to sheathe her claws Picture Quote #1

Somewhere, on the long road that wound through those four years, the girl with her sachet and dancing slippers had slipped away and there was left a woman with sharp green eyes, who counted pennies and turned her hands to many menial tasks, a woman to whom nothing was left from the wreckage except the indestructible red earth on which she stood Picture Quote #1

I can’t make you understand because you don’t know the meaning of fear. You have the heart of a lion and an utter lack of imagination and I envy you both of those qualities. You’ll never mind facing realities and you’ll never want to escape from them as I do Picture Quote #1
