A. A. Milne
It's not much of a tail, but I'm sort of attached to it.
A. A. Milne
It is a terrible thing for an author to have a lot of people running about his book without any invitation from him at all.

Piglet: How do you spell 'love'? Winnie the Pooh: You don't spell it...you feel it.
A. A. Milne

A. A. Milne
In the quiet hours when we are alone and there is nobody to tell us what fine fellows we are, we come sometimes upon a moment in which we wonder, not how much money we are earning, nor how famous we have become, but what good we are doing.
