Quotes 

• Laura Ingalls : Ma, how long is all this learning going to take?

  Caroline Ingalls : We start learning the minute we're born, Laura. And if we're wise, we don't stop until the Lord calls us home.

  Laura Ingalls : THAT long?

• Harriet Oleson : I expect you're here to apologize for what happened yesterday at school.

  Caroline Ingalls : I'm here to sell eggs, Mrs. Olsen.

  Harriet Oleson : Hm... Well, I might have expected as much. Let me tell you something, Mrs. Ingalls. Your daughter Laura is a trouble maker and you best take her in hand! Starting fights in the school yard and pushing other children around!

  Caroline Ingalls : Nellie apparently has her own version of the truth. If you will question some of the other children...

  Harriet Oleson : Brown eggs are still four cents less. You didn't bring any brown eggs!

  Caroline Ingalls : Oh, my husband sold them to a man at Hansen's mill for three cents more than you paid me.

  Harriet Oleson : That's gratitude...

  Caroline Ingalls : No, that's good business.

  Harriet Oleson : Maybe they'll buy your white eggs as well.

  Caroline Ingalls : As a matter of fact, my husband said he'd be glad to do so.
