Quote context

[...]

- John and I were married three months later. There was a reception afterwards at the Laurence home...

- And I saw Jo steal away from the crowd and then Laurie going after her. I was so sure then that another wedding would not be far distant.

- Oh, don't feel too badly, Jo. She's still your sister and there isn't a finer man in the world than John Brooke.

- She married him. After all of her promises.

- Well, you've still got me. I'm not good for much, I know, but I'll stand by you all the days of my life.

- You don't know what a comfort you are to me, Laurie.

- Jo? Will you listen to what I want to tell you?

- No, don't say it.

- Oh, but I will, and you must hear me. It's no use.

- I've loved you ever since I've known you. I couldn't help it. I've tried to show you, but you wouldn't let me, and now I'm going to make you give me an answer.

- Wll, I never wanted you to care for me so. I've tried to keep you from it when I could.

- And I only loved you more for it.

- Oh, I know I'm not good enough for you, but... If you love me, you can make me anything you like.
