Quotes of Movie: Anne of Green Gables: The Sequel [1987]
|
I don't want diamond sunbursts, or marble halls. I just want you. You just think that you love me. Gilbert Blythe: Anne, I've loved you as long as I can remember. I need you. Myra Gillis had 37 doilies when she got married, and I'm determined to have AT LEAST as many as she had. Anne Shirley: I suppose it would be impossible to keep house with only 36 doilies. But I assure you, Mr. Wright, Diana will be the sweetest little homemaker in the world... so long as you can afford to let her keep up with the Gillises. You set your heart too much on frivolous things and then crash down into despair when you don't get them. Anne Shirley: I know. I can't help flying up on the wings of anticipation. It's as glorious as soaring through a sunset... almost pays for the thud. Marilla Cuthbert: Well, maybe it does. But I'd rather walk calmly along and do without flying AND thud. | |

I feel as though someone's handed me the moon... and I don't exactly know what to do with it. Anne Shirley: Plum puffs won't minister to a mind diseased in a world that's crumbled into pieces. Marilla Cuthbert: Well I'm glad to see that your dented spirits haven't injured your tongue. What are you thinking? Anne Shirley: I'm afraid to speak or move for fear that all this wonderful beauty will just vanish... like a broken silence. The only thing you've ever had to wear twice is a sour expression. Rachel Lynde: It's to your credit you changed her as much as you did. Marilla Cuthbert: Ooo, she hasn't changed that much... not really. It's US that's changed, Rachel. Oh. Remember your manners. And don't forget to cross your ankles decently when you sit down. And don't sit in a draft, either. And don't slide down the banisters. Pauline Harris: Mama! Mrs. Harris: Well, you did at Nancy Pringle's wedding. Pauline Harris: Mama, that was 25 years ago! What do you think I am ? Babies are never common. Each one is a miracle. Mrs. Harris: Well I had two of them. I didn't see much that was miraculous about either of THEM. I've always held that early marriage is a sure indication of second-rate goods that had to be sold in a hurry. Mama hates Isaac as much as she did 15 years ago when she set the bull terrier on him for coming around to see me. Katherine Brooke: Now you can go through the motions of telling me how delighted you are and how I'll have a wonderful time. Anne Shirley: I AM delighted... but as to a wonderful time... that will depend entirely on YOU, Katherine. This is the first place I've ever been to that feels like a real home. Every baby is the sweetest and the best. There's a book of revelations in everyone's life. It's not what the world holds for you. It's what you bring to it. Tell me, Mr. Allen, do you dance as well as you boast? Lewis Allen: Better. This has taught me a lesson not to stake my word of honor on cows. Anne, There's not going to be any wedding anymore... I called it off. It wouldn't be fair to Christine. There would never be anyone for me but you. All pioneers are considered to be afflicted with moonstruck madness. Why do people have to grow up and marry, change? Gilbert Blythe: Oh, you'd change. If someone ever admitted that they were head over heels for you, you'd be swept off your feet in a moment. Anne Shirley: I would not, and I defy anyone who would try and make me change. Gilbert Blythe: You do? "Wilt thou give up thy garter, oh fairest of the fair"? Anne, nobody speaks that way. And look at that sap Percival who sits around mooning the entire time. He never lets a girl get a word in edgewise. In real life she'd have pitched him. I don't want any of it to change. I wish I could just hold on to those days forever. I have a feeling things will never be the same again, will they? Gilbert Blythe: I won't change, that's the least I can promise you. | |
