Quotes
„It was just as if somebody inside him were saying, “Now then, Pooh, time for a little something.”“
„Isn’t it funnyHow a bear likes honey?Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!I wonder why he does?“
„You only blinched inside,” said Pooh, “and that’s the bravest way for a Very Small Animal not to blinch that there is.“
„Here is Edward Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin. It is, as far as he knows, the only way of coming downstairs, but sometimes he feels that there really is another way, if only he could stop bumping for a moment and think about it.“
„Halfway down the stairsIs a stairWhere I sit.There isn’t anyOther stairQuite likeIt.I’m not at the bottom,I’m not at the top;So this is the stairWhereI alwaysStop.Halfway up the stairsIsn’t up,Isn’t down.It isn’t in the nursery,It isn’t in the town.And all sorts of funny thoughtsRun round my head:”It isn’t reallyAnywhere!It’s somewhere elseInstead!”“
„The more he looked inside the more Piglet wasn’t there.“
„Tell the innocent visitor from another world that two people were killed at Serajevo, and that the best that Europe could do about it was to kill eleven million more.“
„Here is Edward Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin.“
„”If there’s a buzzing-noise, somebody’s making a buzzing-noise, and the only reason for making a buzzing-noise that I know of is because you’re a bee.”Then he thought another long time, and said: “And the only reason for being a bee that I know of is making honey.”And then he got up, and said: “And the only reason for making honey is so I can eat it.” So he began to climb the tree.“
„”I’m giving this to Eeyore,” he explained, “as a present. What are you going to give?””Couldn’t I give it too?” said Piglet. “From both of us?””No,” said Pooh. “That would not be a good plan.”“
„Then Christopher Robin and Winnie the Pooh walked hand in hand down the forest path and they said goodbye. So they went off together. But wherever they go, and whatever happens to them on the way, in that enchanted place on the top of the forest a little boy and his bear will always be playing and waiting.“
„They’re changing guard at Buckingham Palace —Christopher Robin went down with Alice.They’ve great big parties inside the grounds.”I wouldn’t be king for a hundred pounds”,Says Alice.“
„I shouldn’t be surprised if it hailed a good deal tomorrow”, Eeyore was saying. “Blizzards and what-not. Being fine today doesn’t mean anything. It has no sig – what’s that word? Well, it has none of that. It’s just a small piece of weather.“
„Owl took Christopher Robin’s notice from Rabbit and looked at it nervously. He could spell his own name WOL, and he could spell Tuesday so that you knew it wasn’t Wednesday, and he could read quite comfortably when you weren’t looking over his shoulder and saying “Well?”“
„Owl was telling Kanga an Interesting Anecdote full of long words like Encyclopædia and Rhododendron to which Kanga wasn’t listening.“
„”Shall I look too?” said Pooh, who was beginning to feel a little eleven o’clockish. And he found a small tin of condensed milk, and something seemed to tell him that Tiggers didn’t like this, so he took it into a corner by itself, and went with it to see that nobody interrupted it.“
„Nearly eleven o’clock,” said Pooh happily. “You’re just in time for a little smackerel of something.“
„”H– hup!” said Roo accidentally.”Roo, dear!” said Kanga reproachfully.”Was it me?” asked Roo, a little surprised.“
„Yes,” said Tigger, “they’re very good flyers, Tiggers are. Strornry good flyers.“
„”Well,” said Pooh, “what I like best—” and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn’t know what it was called.“
