Always be kinder than necessary.
James M. Barrie
Forget them, Wendy. Forget them all. Come with me where you'll never, never have to worry about grown up things again.
James M. Barrie
The man of science appears to be the only man who has something to say just now, and the only man who does not know how to say it.
James M. Barrie
Always try to be a litle kinder than necessary.
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
Nobody really wants us. So let us watch and say jaggy things, in the hope that some of them will hurt.
James M. Barrie
In dinner talk it is perhaps allowable to fling any faggot rather than let the fire go out.
James M. Barrie
He was never more sinister than when he was most polite.
James M. Barrie
The fairies, as their custom, clapped their hands with delight over their cleverness, and they were so madly in love with the little house that they could not bear to think they had finished it.
James M. Barrie
Second to the right, and straight on till morning.' That, Peter had told Wendy, was the way to the Neverland but even birds, carrying maps and consulting them at windy corners, could not have sighted it with these instructions. Peter, you see, just said anything that came into his head.
James M. Barrie
i know i'm not clever but i'm always right.
James M. Barrie
Forever is a very long time Peter
James M. Barrie
You always know after you are two. Two is the beginning of the end.
James M. Barrie
All children, except one, grow up.
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
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
I know, I feel, that with the introduction of tobacco England woke up from a long sleep. Suddenly a new zest had been given to life. The glory of existence became a thing to speak of. Men who had hitherto only concerned themselves with the narrow things of home put a pipe into their mouths and became philosophers.
James M. Barrie
Dreams do come true, if we only wish hard enough, You can have anything in life if you will sacrifice everything else for it.
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
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
