James M. Barrie
After a time he fell asleep, and some unsteady fairies had to climb over him on their way home from an orgy.
James M. Barrie
Peter invented, with Wendy's help, a new game that fascinated him enormously, until he suddenly had no more interest in it, which, as you have been told, was what always happened with his games. It consisted in pretending not to have adventures.
James M. Barrie
We are all failures - at least the best of us are.
James M. Barrie

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.
