L. Frank Baum
The Scarecrow watched the Woodman while he worked and said to him I cannot think why this wall is here nor what it is made of. Rest you brains and do not worry about the wall, replied the Woodman, when we have climbed over it we shall know what is on the other side.
L. Frank Baum
Modern education includes morality therefore the modern child seeks only entertainment in its wonder-tales and gladly dispenses with all disagreeable incident.
L. Frank Baum
Imagination has brought mankind through the dark ages to its present state of civilization. Imagination led Columbus to discover America. Imagination led Franklin to discover electricity.
L. Frank Baum
The absurd and legendary devil is the enigma of the Church.
L. Frank Baum
You people with hearts,' he said once, 'have something to guide you, and need never do wrong but I have no heart, and so I must be very careful.
