Quotation: Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1942) on the character of woods

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, unshareable sorrow, which shuts it up into itself for all eternity…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.

You bring the best in me

I’d grow a red beard, and wear an eye patch (over)

a good eye

get the scariest of tattoo, right over my –

your name is on it for ten thousand years

and eternity – you’re smiling –

oh yes, you think, I wouldn’t wear a hook on my good hand

and wear a 30lb sword for you?

All for you, I’ll sing your song, and carry your flag…
