A Quote for Monday: Betsy Was a Junior

"Our lives can hold just so much.  If they're filled with one thing, they can't be filled with another.  We ought to do a lot of thinking about what we want to fill them with."


Julia makes this statement in the middle of Betsy Was a Junior, and it prompts Betsy to muse about how she's been spending her time during her junior year of high school, and what she might do differently.

As part of the Maud Hart Lovelace reading challenge hosted by A Library is a Hospital for the Mind, this month's Monday quotes are from Maud Hart Lovelace books.  I am so enjoying re-reading the high school Betsy-Tacy books.
