You were hidden behind walls of ice no man had passed them I broke them down and love leapt to love, and you lie here, my beautiful, love in the arms of its lover.

More quotes by 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
She adored all beautiful things in their every curve and fragrance, so that they became part of her. Day by day, she gathered beauty had she had no heart (she who was the bosom of womanhood) her thoughts would still have been as lilies, because the good is the beautiful.
James M. Barrie
So come with me, where dreams are born, and time is never planned. Just think of happy things, and your heart will fly on wings, forever, in Never Never Land!
James M. Barrie
I do loathe explanations.
James M. Barrie
In England, justice is open to all - like the Ritz Hotel.
James M. Barrie
We are all failures - at least the best of us are.
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
All the world is made of faith, and trust, and pixie dust.
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
But the years came and went without bringing the careless boy and when they met again Wendy was a married woman, and Peter was no more to her than a little dust in the box in which she had kept her toys.
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
All children, except one, grow up.
James M. Barrie
When the first baby laughed for the first time, the laugh broke into a thousand pieces and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies.
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 few more impressive sights in the world than a Scotsman on the make.
James M. Barrie
All you need is trust and a little bit of pixie dust!
James M. Barrie
If you cannot teach me to fly, teach me to sing.
James M. Barrie
i know i'm not clever but i'm always right.
James M. Barrie
You always know after you are two. Two is the beginning of the end.
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
