You see, dear, it is not true that woman was made from man's rib; she was made from his funny bone.
James M. BarrieWhen the first baby laughed for the first time, the laugh broke into a thousand pieces and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies.
James M. BarrieWhen she expressed a doubtful hope that Tinker Bell would be glad to see her, he said, โWho is Tinker Bell?โ โO Peter,โ she said, shocked; but even when she explained he could not remember. โThere are such a lot of them,โ he said. โI expect she is no more.โ I expect he was right, for fairies donโt live long, but they are so little that a short time seems a good while to them.
James M. Barrie
