The woods are never solitary– they are full of whispering, beckoning, friendly life. But the sea is a mighty soul, forever moaning of some great, unsharable sorrow which shuts it up into itself for all eternity. We can never pierce it’s infinite mystery– we may only wander, awed and spell-bound, on the outer fringe of it. The woods call us with a hundred voices, but the sea has one only– a mighty voice that drowns our souls in its majestic music. The woods are human, but the sea is of the... L. M. Montgomery

L. M. Montgomery
Before this war is over,' [Walter] said - or something said through his lips - 'every man and woman and child in Canada will feel it - you, Mary, will feel it - feel it to your heart's core.

The woods call to us with a hundred voices, but the sea has one only? a mighty voice that drowns our souls in its majestic music. The woods are human, but the sea is of the company of the archangels. L. M. Montgomery
L. M. Montgomery quote: "She looks just as music sounds, I think,' answered Anne."
