“If I really wanted to pray I’ll tell you what I’d do. I’d go out into a great big field all alone or into the deep, deep woods, and I’d look up into the sky – up – up – up into that lovely blue sky that looks as if there was no end to its blueness. And then I’d just feel a prayer.”
“My life is a graveyard of buried hopes”
“That is one consolation when you are poor – there are so many more things you can imagine about.”
“That’s the worst of growing up, and I’m beginning to realize it. The things you wanted so much when you were a child don’t seem half so wonderful to you when you get them.”
