More quotes by James M. Barrie

James M. Barrie

James M. Barrie
In love-making, as in other arts, those who do it best cannot tell how it is done.
James M. Barrie

James M. Barrie
The best of our fiction is by novelists who allow that it is as good as they can give, and the worst by novelists who maintain that they could do much better if only the public would let them.
James M. Barrie
In dinner talk it is perhaps allowable to fling any faggot rather than let the fire go out.
James M. Barrie
All the world is made of faith, and trust, and pixie dust.
James M. Barrie
They were going round and round the island, but they did not meet because all were going at the same rate.
James M. Barrie
Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else.
James M. Barrie
You see, dear, it is not true that woman was made from man's rib she was made from his funny bone.
James M. Barrie
One girl is worth more use than 20 boys.
James M. Barrie
