You can't stay in your corner of the forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
Here is Edward Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin. It is, as far as he knows, the only way of coming downstairs, but sometimes he feels that there really is another way, if only he could stop bumping for a moment and think of it. And then he feels that perhaps there isn't.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
Well," said Pooh, "what I like best," and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn't know what it was called.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
A quotation is a handy thing to have about, saving one the trouble of thinking for oneself, always a laborious business.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
Owl,' said Rabbit shortly, 'you and I have brains. The others have fluff. If there is easy thinking to be done in this Forest - and when I say thinking I mean thinking - you and I must do it.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
So - here I am in the dark alone, There's nobody here to see; I think to myself, I play to myself, And nobody knows what I say to myself; Here I am in the dark alone, What is it going to be? I can think whatever I like to think, I can play whatever I like to play, I can laugh whatever I like to laugh, There's nobody here but me.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
When I was One, I had just begun. When I was Two, I was nearly new. When I was Three I was hardly me. When I was Four, I was not much more. When I was Five, I was just alive. But now I am Six, I'm as clever as clever, So I think I'll be six now for ever and ever.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
No brain at all, some of them [people], only grey fluff that's blown into their heads by mistake, and they don't Think.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought, "Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" and sometimes he didn't quite know what he was thinking about.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
But now I am six. And I'm clever as clever. And now I think I'll stay six now forever and ever.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
The average man finds life very uninteresting as it is. And I think the reason why is that he is always waiting for something to happen to him instead of setting to work to make things happen
Quote by -A. A. Milne
Don't talk anybody, don't come near! Can't you see the fish might hear? He thinks I'm playing with a piece of string; He thinks I'm another sort of funny thing, But he doesn't know I'm fishing - He doesn't know I'm fishing. That's what I'm doing - Fishing.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
The third-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking with the majority. The second-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking with the minority. The first-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
We'll be Friends Forever, won't we, Pooh?' asked Piglet. Even longer,' Pooh answered.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
Come, come, come. Without a monster or two it's not a quest, merely a gaggle of friends wandering about.

It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?
Quote by -A. A. Milne
A day without a friend is like a pot without a single drop of honey left inside.

A little Consideration, a little Thought for Others, makes all the difference.

Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind. "Pooh?" he whispered. "Yes, Piglet?" "Nothing," said Piglet, taking Pooh's hand. "I just wanted to be sure of you.
Quote by -A. A. Milne
If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together... there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart... I'll always be with you.

Wherever they go, and whatever happens to them on the way, in that enchanted place on the top of the forest, a little boy and his Bear will always be playing.
