More quotes by James M. Barrie
Let no one who loves be unhappy, even love unreturned has its rainbow.
James M. Barrie
Next moment he was standing erect on the rock again, with that smile on his face and a drum beating within him. It was saying, To die will be an awfully big adventure.
James M. Barrie
If he thought at all, but I don't believe he ever thought, it was that he and his shadow, when brought near each other, would join like drops of water.
James M. Barrie
This meal happened to be a make-believe tea, and they sat round the board guzzling in their greed and really, what with their chatter and recriminations, the noise, as Wendy said, was positively deafening.
James M. Barrie
It's a sort of bloom on a woman. If you have it, you don't need to have anything else, and if you don't have it, it doesn't much matter what else you have. Some women, the few, have charm for all and most have charm for one. But some have charm for none.
James M. Barrie
Courage: The lovely virtue-the rib of Himself that God sent down to His children.
James M. Barrie
Forget not your past, for in the future it may help you grow
James M. Barrie

James M. Barrie
His lordship may compel us to be equal upstairs, but there will never be equality in the servants' hall.
James M. Barrie
i know i'm not clever but i'm always right.
James M. Barrie
The praise that comes of love does not make us vain, but humble rather. Knowing what we are, the pride that shines in our mother's eyes as she looks at us is about the most pathetic thing a man has to face, but he would be a devil altogether if it did not burn some of the sin out of him.
James M. Barrie
She was not a little girl heart-broken about him she was a grown woman smiling at it all, but they were wet smiles.
James M. Barrie
You always know after you are two. Two is the beginning of the end.
James M. Barrie
Years rolled on again, and Wendy had a daughter. This ought not to be written in ink but in a golden splash.
James M. Barrie
Young boys should never be sent to bed. They always wake up a day older.
James M. Barrie
If you cannot teach me to fly, teach me to sing.
James M. Barrie
Always be kinder than necessary.
James M. Barrie
I know not, sir, whether Bacon wrote the works of Shakespeare, but if he did not, it seems to me that he missed the opportunity of his life.
James M. Barrie
The gates of heaven are so easily found when we are little, and they are always standing open to let children wander in.
James M. Barrie
I do loathe explanations.
James M. Barrie
