More quotes by L. Frank Baum
A little misery, at times, makes one appreciate happiness more.
L. Frank Baum
If you only have brains on your head you would be as good a man as any of them, and a better man than some of them. Brains are the only things worth having in this world, no matter whether one is a crow or a man.
L. Frank Baum
Familiarity with any great thing removes our awe of it.
L. Frank Baum
I shall really be very unhappy unless you give me the sort of courage that makes one forget he is afraid.

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
To destroy an offender cannot benefit society so much as to redeem him.
L. Frank Baum
One can be ugly in looks, but lovely in disposition.

L. Frank Baum
In all this world there is nothing so beautiful as a happy child, says good old Santa Claus and if he had his way the children would all be beautiful, for all would be happy.
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
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
To 'know Thyself' is considered quite an accomplishment.
L. Frank Baum
Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable.
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
There's no place like home, there's no place like home, there's no place like home.
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
He brought toys to the children because they were little and helpless, and because he loved them.
L. Frank Baum
