More quotes by L. Frank Baum
It must be inconvenient to be made of flesh, said the Scarecrow thoughtfully, for you must sleep, and eat and drink. However, you have brains, and it is worth a lot of bother to be able to think properly.
L. Frank Baum
Imagination has given us the steam engine, the telephone, the talking-machine, and the automobile, for these things had to be dreamed of before they became realities.
L. Frank Baum
During the year I stood there I had known was the loss of my heart. While I was in love I was the happiest man on earth.
L. Frank Baum
You have plenty of courage, I am sure, answered Oz. All you need is confidence in yourself. There is no living thing that is not afraid when it faces danger. The true courage is in facing danger when you are afraid, and that kind of courage you have in plenty.
L. Frank Baum
I'll miss you most of all scarecrow.
L. Frank Baum
True courage is in facing danger when you are afraid.
L. Frank Baum
We consider a prisoner unfortunate. He is unfortunate in two ways-because he has done something wrong and because he is deprived of his liberty. Therefore we should treat him kindly, because of his misfortune, for otherwise he would become hard and bitter and would not be sorry he had done wrong.
L. Frank Baum
The Tin Woodman knew very well he had no heart, and therefore he took great care never to be cruel or unkind to anything.
L. Frank Baum
A baby has brains, but it doesn't know much. Experience is the only thing that brings knowledge, and the longer you are on earth the more experience you are sure to get.
L. Frank Baum
There is no place like home.
L. Frank Baum
It is worth a lot of bother to be able to think properly.
L. Frank Baum
The road to the City of Emeralds is paved with yellow brick.
L. Frank Baum
It is such an uncomfortable feeling to know one is a fool.
L. Frank Baum
Going so soon? I wouldn't hear of it. Why my little party's just beginning. ~ Wicked Witch of the West Wizard of Oz
L. Frank Baum
I can't give you a brain, but I can give you a diploma.
L. Frank Baum
It seems unfortunate that strong people are usually so disagreeable and overbearing that no one cares for them. In fact, to be different from your fellow creatures is always a misfortune.
L. Frank Baum
To destroy an offender cannot benefit society so much as to redeem him.
L. Frank Baum
Oh, I see said the Tin Woodman. But, after all, brains are not the best things in the world. Have you any? enquired the Scarecrow. No, my head is quite empty, answered the Woodman but once I had brains, and a heart also so, having tried them both, I should much rather have a heart.
L. Frank Baum
In all this world there is nothing so beautiful as a happy child.
L. Frank Baum
If we walk far enough, says Dorothy, we shall sometime come to someplace.
L. Frank Baum
