41 " JUST "
― Louise Fitzhugh , Harriet the Spy
42 " There's as many ways to live as people. "
43 " I want to know everything, everything," screeched Harriet suddenly, lying back and bouncing up and down on the bed. "Everything in the world, everything, everything. I will be a spy and know everything.""It won't do you a bit of good to know everything if you don't do anything with it. "
44 " Harriet never minded admitting when she didn't know something. 'So what,' she thought, 'I can always learn. "
45 " I FEEL ALL THE SAME THINGS WHEN I DO THINGS ALONE AS WHEN OLE GOLLY WAS HERE. THE BATH FEELS HOT, THE BED FEELS SOFT, BUT I FEEL THERE’S A FUNNY LITTLE HOLE IN ME THAT WASN’T THERE BEFORE, LIKE A SPLINTER IN YOUR FINGER, BUT THIS IS SOMEWHERE ABOVE MY STOMACH. "
