It is such an uncomfortable feeling to know one is a fool.
L. Frank Baum
Never give up. No one knows what's going to happen next.
L. Frank Baum
I think you are wrong to want a heart. It makes most people unhappy. If you only knew it, you are in luck not to have a heart.
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
One can be ugly in looks, but lovely in disposition.
L. Frank Baum
I shall take the heart. For brains do not make one happy, and happiness is the best thing in the world.
L. Frank Baum
The absurd and legendary devil is the enigma of the Church.
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
I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore.
L. Frank Baum
Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable.
L. Frank Baum
Oh - You're a very bad man! Oh, no my dear. I'm a very good man. I'm just a very bad Wizard.
L. Frank Baum
True courage is in facing danger when you are afraid.
L. Frank Baum
I have learned to regard fame as a will-o-the-wisp...
L. Frank Baum
There is no place like home.
L. Frank Baum
Lions and tigers, and bears, oh my! - Dorothy in Wizard of Oz
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
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
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
As a matter of fact, we are none of us above criticism so let us bear with each other's faults.
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
