A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh

"I might have known,” said Eeyore. “After all, one can’t complain. I have my friends. Somebody spoke to me only yesterday. And was it last week or the week before that Rabbit bumped into me and said ‘Bother!’. The Social Round. Always something going on."

"Rabbit's clever,"said Pooh thoughtfully."Yes,"said Piglet, "Rabbit's clever.""And he has Brain.""Yes,"said Piglet, "Rabbit has Brain."There was a long silence."I suppose,"said Pooh, "that that's why he never understands anything."

"Some people care too much. I think it's called love."

"Pooh,"said Rabbit kindly, "you haven't any brain.""I know,"said Pooh humbly."

"It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?"

"People say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day."

"A bear, however hard he tries, grows tubby without exercise."

"I used to believe in forever, but forever's too good to be true"

"People say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day."

"Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there some day."

"But Piglet is so small that he slips into a pocket, where it is very comfortable to feel him when you are not quite sure whether twice seven is twelve or twenty-two."

"Think, think, think."

"I think we dream so we don’t have to be apart for so long. If we’re in each other’s dreams, we can be together all the time."

"You can't stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes."

"I'm not lost for I know where I am. But however, where I am may be lost."

"If the person you are talking to doesn't appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be that he has a small piece of fluff in his ear."
