More quotes by James M. Barrie

James M. Barrie
i know i'm not clever but i'm always right.
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
How shall we ever know if it's morning if there's no servant to pull up the blinds?
James M. Barrie

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
Some of my plays peter out and some pan out.
James M. Barrie
The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another and his humblest hour is when he compares the volume as it is with what he vowed to make it.
James M. Barrie
Every time you say you don't believe in fairies, a fairy dies.
James M. Barrie
They have long lost count of the days, but always if they want to do anything special they say this is saturday night, and then they do it.
James M. Barrie
Do you believe in fairies? Say quick that you believe. If you believe, clap your hands!
James M. Barrie
As soon as you can say what you think and not what some other person has thought for you, you are on the way to being a remarkable man.
James M. Barrie
Our life is a book to which we add daily, until suddenly we are finished, and then the manuscript is burned.
James M. Barrie
There are, I dare say, many lovers who would never have been drawn to each other had they met for the first time, as, say, they met the second time.
James M. Barrie
