Here is Edward Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin. It is, as far as he knows, the only way of coming downstairs, but sometimes he feels that there really is another way, if only he could stop bumping for a moment and think of it. And then he feels that perhaps there isn't.

A. A. Milne
When you are a Bear of Very Little Brain, and you Think of Things, you find sometimes that a Thing which seemed very Thingish inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open and has other people looking at it.
A. A. Milne
A Proper Tea is much nicer than a Very Nearly Tea, which is one you forget about afterwards.
A. A. Milne
To seem natural rather than to be natural.
A. A. Milne
One of the advantages of being disorderly is that one is constantly making exciting discoveries.
A. A. Milne
I suppose this is the reason why diaries are so rarely kept nowadays- that nothing ever happens to anybody.
A. A. Milne
Come, come, come. Without a monster or two it's not a quest, merely a gaggle of friends wandering about.
