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
The praise that comes of love does not make us vain, but humble rather. Knowing what we are, the pride that shines in our mother's eyes as she looks at us is about the most pathetic thing a man has to face, but he would be a devil altogether if it did not burn some of the sin out of him.
James M. Barrie
Make your feet your friend.
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
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
Oh, the cleverness of me!
James M. Barrie
It is very well to be able to write a book, but can you waggle your ears?
James M. Barrie
If I were younger, I'd know more.
