A. A. Milne
When you do the things that you can do, you will find a way.
A. A. Milne
Hallo, Eeyore. Same to you, Pooh Bear, and twice on Thursdays, said Eeyore gloomily. Before Pooh could say: 'Why Thursdays?' Christopher Robin began to explain the sad story of Eeyore's lost house.
A. A. Milne
Tiggers don't like honey.
A. A. Milne
But, of course, it isn't really Good-bye, because the Forest will always be there... and anybody who is Friendly with Bears can find it.
A. A. Milne

A. A. Milne
A pekingeese is not a pet dog he is an undersized lion.
A. A. Milne
Some have brains, and some haven't, and there it is.

Owl explained about the Necessary Dorsal Muscles. He had explained this to Pooh and Christopher Robin once before and had been waiting for a chance to do it again, because it is a thing you can easily explain twice before anybody knows what you are talking about.
A. A. Milne
