♣ Anne with an E (TV Series) - Your Will Shall Decide Your Destiny (2017)

Anne Shirley : "If all the world hated you and believed you wicked, but your own conscience approved of you and absolved you from guilt, you would not be without friends." I love Jane Eyre, don't you?
Mrs. Spencer : I never met her.
Anne Shirley : I'm glad you've woken. I have so many more questions for you about Green Gables.
Mrs. Spencer : I'm sure you do.
