Never question the truth of what you fail to understand, for the world is filled with wonders.
L. Frank BaumI shall ask for brains instead of a heart; for a fool would not know what to do with a heart if he had one.
L. Frank BaumFamiliarity with any great thing removes our awe of it. The great general is only terrible to the enemy; the great poet is frequently scolded by his wife; the children of the great statesman clamber about his knees with perfect trust and impunity; the great actor who is called before the curtain by admiring audiences is often waylaid at the stage door by his creditors.
L. Frank Baum
