L. Frank Baum
True courage is in facing danger when you are afraid.
L. Frank Baum
I can't give you a brain, but I can give you a diploma.
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

L. Frank Baum
There's no place like home, there's no place like home, there's no place like home.
L. Frank Baum

L. Frank Baum
I have learned to regard fame as a will-o-the-wisp...
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
He is my dog, Toto, answered Dorothy. Is he made of tin, or stuffed? asked the Lion. Neither. He's a-- a-- a meat dog, said the girl.
L. Frank Baum
Lions and tigers, and bears, oh my! - Dorothy in Wizard of Oz
L. Frank Baum

L. Frank Baum
There is no place like home.
L. Frank Baum
To destroy an offender cannot benefit society so much as to redeem him.
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
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.
L. Frank Baum
Never give up. No one knows what's going to happen next.
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
No, indeed I don't know anything. You see, I am stuffed, so I have no brains at all.
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
