Dreams

"'Anyhow, I saved my dream,' she said placidly.

And that, of course, was all that really mattered. Grown people were so strangely oblivious to the truly important things in life. Material for new garments of night or day, could be bought in any shor for a trifling sum and made up out of hand. But if a dream escape you, in what market place the wide world over can you hope to regain it? What coin of earthly minting will ever buy back for you that lost and lovely vision?"

-L.M. Montgomery, The Story Girl
