"The golden rods, filled with butterflies and honey bees, cover the rolling hills and the crests of sandy cliffs. The queen Anne's lace adorn every un-mowed field, with black-eyed-Susans scattered along the red dirt roads. Sea gulls fly over yonder, screeching to each other from above the pine trees. It is sunny and warm, spring has passed, and summer has come to Avonlea."
"I will never forget the days of my youth. When the waves rippled between my toes, taking the pink and silver grains of sand back out to the depths of the sea. There was a peace then; an indescribable feeling of immortality in the ebb and flow of the tide, and the seemingly endless stretch of beach and sky. Now as I gaze upon those same sparkling waters, I realize that youth is never left behind, but is carried always, gently, in the heart. " - Hetty King 
"This strangely still pause between summer and autumn, greenery and gold, and the heat and rising wind that is once again readying itself to scuttle all away in a climactic symphony of color and scent- in my opinion, is one of the greatest, yet saddest, things of summer."
"It was sunsets that taught me that beauty sometimes only lasts for a couple of moments, and it was sunrises that showed me that all it takes is patience to experience it all over again."
"It is incredibly amazing how at every sunset, the sky is a different shade. No cloud is ever in the same place. Each day is a new masterpiece. And every day is a gift from God."
