More quotes by 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
It is such an uncomfortable feeling to know one is a fool.
L. Frank Baum
If we walk far enough, says Dorothy, we shall sometime come to someplace.
L. Frank Baum
I believe that dreams - day dreams, you know, with your eyes wide open and your brain machinery whizzing - are likely to lead to the betterment of the world.
L. Frank Baum
You have plenty of courage, I am sure, answered Oz. All you need is confidence in yourself. There is no living thing that is not afraid when it faces danger. The true courage is in facing danger when you are afraid, and that kind of courage you have in plenty.
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
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
He brought toys to the children because they were little and helpless, and because he loved them.
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

L. Frank Baum
I can't give you a brain, but I can give you a diploma.
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
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
It is worth a lot of bother to be able to think properly.
L. Frank Baum
It's so kind of you to want to visit me in my loneliness. - The Wicked Witch of the West. Now I know I have a heart, because it's breaking. - The Tin Woodsman Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable.
L. Frank Baum
To destroy an offender cannot benefit society so much as to redeem him.
L. Frank Baum
In all this world there is nothing so beautiful as a happy child.
L. Frank Baum
If we didn't want anything, we would never get anything, good or bad. I think our longings are natural, and if we act as nature prompts us we can't go far wrong.
L. Frank Baum
There is no place like home.
L. Frank Baum
