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
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
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
It isn't what we are, but what folks think we are, that counts in this world.
L. Frank Baum
I can't give you a brain, but I can give you a diploma.
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
A little misery, at times, makes one appreciate happiness more.
L. Frank Baum
Modern education includes morality therefore the modern child seeks only entertainment in its wonder-tales and gladly dispenses with all disagreeable incident.
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
