James M. Barrie

James M. Barrie
They were going round and round the island, but they did not meet because all were going at the same rate.
James M. Barrie
Wise children always choose a mother who was a shocking flirt in her maiden days, and so had several offers before she accepted their fortunate papa.
James M. Barrie
