A. A. Milne
To seem natural rather than to be natural.
A. A. Milne
We'll be Friends Forever, won't we, Pooh?' asked Piglet. Even longer,' Pooh answered.
A. A. Milne
When you are pretty sure that an Adventure is going to happen, brush the honey off your nose and spruce yourself up as best you can, so as to look Ready for Anything.
A. A. Milne
I wonder what Piglet is doing, thought Pooh. I wish I were there to be doing it, too.
A. A. Milne
