Love, it is said, is blind, but love is not blind. It is an extra eye, which shows us what is most worthy of regard. To see the best is to see most clearly, and it is the lover's privilege.
James M. Barrie

More quotes by James M. Barrie
Never say goodbye because goodbye means going away and going away means forgetting.
James M. Barrie
There could not have been a lovelier sight but there was none to see it except a little boy who was staring in at the window. He had ecstasies innumerable that other children can never know but he was looking through the window at the one joy from which he must be for ever barred.
James M. Barrie
Oh the gladness of their gladness when they're glad, And the sadness of their sadness when they're sad But the gladness of their gladness, and the sadness of their sadness, Are as nothing to their badness when they're bad
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
In love-making, as in other arts, those who do it best cannot tell how it is done.
James M. Barrie
David tells me that fairies never say 'We feel happy': what they say is, 'We feel dancey'.
James M. Barrie
Life is a long lesson in humility.

We have a right to know the truth no right to ask anything else from God, but the right to know that.
James M. Barrie
Nobody really wants us. So let us watch and say jaggy things, in the hope that some of them will hurt.
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
One's religion is whatever he is most interested in.
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
Love is not blind it is an extra eye, which shows us what is most worthy of regard.
James M. Barrie
He was a little boy, and she was grown up. She huddled by the fire not daring to move, helpless and guilty, a big woman.
James M. Barrie
I think one remains the same person throughout, merely passing, as it were, i these lapses of time from one room to another, but all in the same house.
James M. Barrie
You find a glimmer of happiness in this world, there's always someone who wants to destroy it.
James M. Barrie
I do loathe explanations.
James M. Barrie
We should be slower to think that the man at his worst is the real man, and certain that the better we are ourselves the less likely is he to be at his worst in our company. Every time he talks away his own character before us he is signifying contempt for ours.
James M. Barrie
i know i'm not clever but i'm always right.
James M. Barrie
Never is an awfully long time.
James M. Barrie
