L.M. Montgomery Quote
Never mind Phil and the violets just now, Anne, said Gilbert quietly, taking her hand in a clasp from which she could not free it. There is something I want to say to you. Oh, don't say it, cried Anne, pleadingly. Don't—PLEASE, Gilbert. I must. Things can't go on like this any longer. Anne, I love you. You know I do. I—I can't tell you how much. Will you promise me that some day you'll be my wife? I—I can't, said Anne miserably. Oh, Gilbert—you—you've spoiled everything. Don't you care for me at all? Gilbert asked after a very dreadful pause, during which Anne had not dared to look up. Not—not in that way. I do care a great deal for you as a friend. But I don't love you, Gilbert. But can't you give me some hope that you will—yet? No, I can't, exclaimed Anne desperately. I never, never can love you—in that way—Gilbert. You must never speak of this to me again. There
