James M. Barrie
On these magic shores children at play are for ever beaching their coracles. We too have been there we can still hear the sound of the surf, though we shall land no more.
James M. Barrie
I am aware that those hateful persons called Original Researchers now maintain that Raleigh was not the man but to them I turn a deaf ear.
James M. Barrie
For when you looked into my mother's eyes you knew, as if He had told you, why God sent her into the world - it was to open then minds of all who looked to beautiful thoughts. And that is the beginning and end of literature.

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
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
Wendy: Sir, you are both ungallant and deficient! Peter: How am I deficient? Wendy: You're just a boy.
James M. Barrie
Courage: The lovely virtue-the rib of Himself that God sent down to His children.
James M. Barrie
Second star to the right and straight on 'til morning.
James M. Barrie
All are keeping a sharp look-out in front, but none suspects that the danger may be creeping up from behind.
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
How shall we ever know if it's morning if there's no servant to pull up the blinds?
James M. Barrie
There could not have been a lovelier sight but there was none to see it except a little boy who was staring in at the window. He had ecstasies innumerable that other children can never know but he was looking through the window at the one joy from which he must be for ever barred.
James M. Barrie
