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
In England, justice is open to all - like the Ritz Hotel.

Do you believe in fairies? Say quick that you believe. If you believe, clap your hands!
James M. Barrie
Shall we make a new rule of life from tonight: always to try to be a little kinder than is necessary?
James M. Barrie
To die will be an awfully big adventure.

Men's second childhood begins when a woman gets a hold of him.
James M. Barrie
Would you like an adventure now, or would you like to have your tea first?
James M. Barrie
Children have the strangest adventures without being troubled by them. For instance, they may remember to mention, a week after the event happened, that when they were in the wood they had met their dead father and had a game with him.
James M. Barrie
I do loathe explanations.
