Never thee stop believin' in th' Big Good Thing an' knowin' th' world's full of it - and call it what tha' likes. Tha' wert singin' to it when I come into t' garden.

To let a sad thought or a bad one get into your mind is as dangerous as letting a scarlet fever germ get into your body. If you let it stay there after it has got in, you may never get over it as long as you live.

Somehow, something always happens just before things get to the very worst. It is as if Magic did it. If I could only just remember that always. The worse thing never quite comes.

If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden.

Hang in there. It is astonishing how short a time it can take for very wonderful things to happen.

Two worst things as can happen to a child is never to have his own way - or always to have it.

There is naught a man or woman can not learn who hath the wit.
