As I sent a quote from Peter Pan to a friend of mine, I saw there are so many more little gems of quotes from the writer of the musical, J.M. Barrie. Here are some quotes that will add just that little bit of sparkle and fairy dust to your life:
‘All the world is made of faith, and trust, and pixie dust.
‘David tells me that fairies never say We feel happy, what they say is We feel dancey.’
‘When the first baby laughed for the first time, its laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies. When a new baby laughs for the first time a new fairy is born, and as there are always new babies there are always new fairies. They live in nests on the tops of trees; and the mauve ones are boys and the white ones are girls, and the blue ones are just little sillies who are not sure what they are.’
‘To live will be an awfully big adventure.’
‘Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.’
‘For to have faith, is to have wings.’
‘I suppose it’s like the ticking crocodile, isn’t it? Time is chasing after all of us.’
‘All you need is trust and a little bit of pixie dust!’
‘It is not in doing what you like, but in liking what you do that is the secret of happiness.’
‘You just think lovely wonderful thoughts,” Peter explained, “and they lift you up in the air.’
‘Shall we make a new rule of life…always to try to be a little kinder than is necessary.’
‘Even though you want to try to, never grow up.’
‘You know that place between sleep and awake, the place where you can still remember dreaming? That’s where I’ll always love you. That’s where I’ll be waiting.’
‘When there’s a smile in your heart, there’s no better time to start.’
