More quotes by L. Frank Baum
If your heads were stuffed with straw, like mine, you would probably all live in the beautiful places, and then Kansas would have no people at all. It is fortunate for Kansas that you have brains.
L. Frank Baum
I can't give you a brain, but I can give you a diploma.
L. Frank Baum
To be angry once in a while is really good fun, because it makes others so miserable. But to be angry morning, noon and night, as I am, grows monotonous and prevents my gaining any other pleasure in life.
L. Frank Baum
He brought toys to the children because they were little and helpless, and because he loved them.
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
Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable.
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
Never give up. No one knows what's going to happen next.
L. Frank Baum
One can be ugly in looks, but lovely in disposition.
L. Frank Baum
Flowers are beautiful, for instance, but we are not inclined to marry them. Duty, on the contrary, is a bugle call to action, whether you are inclined to act, or not. In this case, I obey the bugle call of duty.
L. Frank Baum
Lions and tigers, and bears, oh my! - Dorothy in Wizard of Oz
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
Toto did not really care whether he was in Kansas or the Land of Oz so long as Dorothy was with him but he knew the little girl was unhappy, and that made him unhappy too.
L. Frank Baum
People would rather live in homes regardless of its grayness. There is no place like home.
L. Frank Baum
I think the world is like a great mirror, and reflects our lives just as we ourselves look upon it.
L. Frank Baum
A little misery, at times, makes one appreciate happiness more.
L. Frank Baum
Stunt dwarf or destroy the imagination of a child and you have taken away its chances of success in life. Imagination transforms the commonplace into the great and creates the new out of the old.
L. Frank Baum
I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore.
L. Frank Baum
No, indeed I don't know anything. You see, I am stuffed, so I have no brains at all.
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
