Lions and tigers, and bears, oh my! - Dorothy in Wizard of Oz
L. Frank Baum
I can't give you a brain, but I can give you a diploma.
L. Frank Baum
If we walk far enough, says Dorothy, we shall sometime come to someplace.
L. Frank Baum
. . .It is the Law that while Evil, unopposed, may accomplish terrible deeds, the power of Good can never be overthrown when opposed to Evil. . .
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
True courage is in facing danger when you are afraid.
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
To 'know Thyself' is considered quite an accomplishment.
L. Frank Baum
As a matter of fact, we are none of us above criticism so let us bear with each other's faults.
L. Frank Baum
In all this world there is nothing so beautiful as a happy child.
L. Frank Baum
Never give up. No one knows what's going to happen next.
L. Frank Baum
Familiarity with any great thing removes our awe of it.
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
There is no place like home.
L. Frank Baum
I shall really be very unhappy unless you give me the sort of courage that makes one forget he is afraid.
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
He brought toys to the children because they were little and helpless, and because he loved them.
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
It is such an uncomfortable feeling to know one is a fool.
L. Frank Baum
The proud spirit of the original owners of these vast prairies inherited through centuries of fierce and bloody wars for their possession, lingered last in the bosom of Sitting Bull. With his fall the nobility of the Redskin is extinguished, and what few are left are a pack of whining curs who lick the hand that smites them.
L. Frank Baum
