About This Quote

To say that Scarlett O’Hara faces the worst that can happen to her in the Civil War is an understatement. Through her struggle, she is able to find hope in the end. She has saved something to fear and loves something to love. And, because of the way she faces the worst, she is no longer afraid of anything.
