Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable.

My people have been wearing green glasses on their eyes for so long that most of them think this really is an Emerald City.

If I ever go looking for my heart's desire again, I won't look any further than my own back yard. Because if it isn't there, I never really lost it to begin with!

For I consider brains far superior to money in every way. You may have noticed that if one has money without brains, he cannot use it to his advantage; but if one has brains without money, they will enable him to live comfortably to the end of his days.

Never give up. No one knows what's going to happen next.

It is kindness that makes one strong and brave; and so we are kind to our prisoners.

It seems unfortunate that strong people are usually so disagreeable and overbearing that no one cares for them. In fact, to be different from your fellow creatures is always a misfortune.
