About This Quote
Anne Shirley is a character from a series of novels by the famous Canadian author, L.M. Montgomery. Anne was a young woman who had a strong sense of morality and had a deep love of literature. She had a passion for reading and writing, and she was the only child at her school to read aloud with such pleasure and enthusiasm as if it were her greatest delight.
She was also very intelligent, but very rarely used those talents in her schoolwork. Anne's life was full of ups and downs, many of which were quite sad and painful. However, she always found something positive to come out of those experiences and made an effort not to let them negatively impact her life.Anne would be the first one to confess that she was not perfect and that there were many things about her life that she wished could have been different.
But despite all her flaws, Anne never stopped believing in herself or her abilities as she always knew that there was good that she could do with them.
