Winnie's Quotes
Here I have some quotes from all imaginable pooh characters!!
"Pooh," said Rabbit kindly, "you haven't any brain."
"I know," said Pooh humbly.
-- Winnie-the-Pooh--
"People who don't think probably don't have brains;
rather, they have grey fluff that's blown into
"their heads by mistake."
-Eeyore-
"To the uneducated, an A is just three sticks."
-Eeyore-
"Rabbit's clever," said Pooh thoughtfully.
"Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit's clever."
"And he has Brain."
"Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit has Brain."
There was a long silence.
"I suppose," said Pooh, "that that's why
he never understands anything."
--The House at Pooh Corner--
Sometimes, when you are a Bear of Very Little Brain,
and you Think of Things, you find sometimes
that a Thing which seemed very Thingish
inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open
and has other people looking at it.
--Winnie-the-Pooh--
"Well," said Owl, "the customary procedure in such cases is as follows."
"What does Crustimoney Proseedcake mean?" said Pooh.
"For I am a Bear of Very Little Brain, and long words Bother me."
"It means the Thing to Do."
"As long as it means that, I don't mind." said Pooh humbly.
--Winnie-the-Pooh--
"One can't complain. I have my friends.
Someone spoke to me only yesterday."
-Eeyore-
"After all, what are birthdays?
Here today and gone tomorrow."
-Eeyore-
"Hallo, Eeyore!" said Pooh. "This is Tigger."
"What is?" said Eeyore.
"This," explained Pooh and Piglet together,
and Tigger smiled his happiest smile and said nothing.
Eeyore walked all round Tigger one way,
and then turned and walked all round him the other way.
"What did you say it was?" he asked.
"Tigger."
"Ah!" said Eeyore.
"He's just come," explained Piglet.
"Ah!" said Eeyore again.
He thought for a long time and then said:
"When is he going?"
-Eeyore exercises tact-
--The House at Pooh Corner--
"And we must all bring Provisions."
"Bring what?"
"Things to eat."
"Oh!" said Pooh happily. "I thought you said Provisions.
I'll go and tell them." And he stumped off.
--Winnie-the-Pooh--
"You can't help respecting anybody
who can spell Tuesday, even if he doesn't spell it right."
-Rabbit-
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 I know for making honey is so as I can eat it."
--Winnie-the-Pooh--
"I don't hold with all the washing," grumbled Eeyore.
"This modern Behind-the-ears nonsense."
-Eeyore-
"How would it be," said Pooh slowly,
"if, as soon as we're out of sight of this Pit, we try to find it again?"
"What's the good of that?" said Rabbit.
"Well," said Pooh, "We keep looking for Home and not finding it,
so I thought that if we looked for this Pit, we'd be sure not to find it,
which would be a Good Thing, because then we might find something
that we weren't looking for, which might be just what we were looking for, really."
"I don't see much sense in that," said Rabbit.
"No," said Pooh humbly, "there isn't.
But there was going to be when I began it. It's
just that something happened to it along the way."
--Winnie-the-Pooh--
"Spelling isn't everything.
There are days when spelling Tuesday simply doesn't count."
-Rabbit-
The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest,
his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things.
Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought,
"Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" and sometimes
he didn't quite know what he was thinking about.
-Eeyore-
"Pooh, promise you won't forget about me,ever.
Not even when I'm a hundred."
Pooh thought a little.
"How old shall I be then?"
"Ninety-nine."
Pooh nodded. "I promise," he said. Still with his eyes on the world
Christopher Robin put out a hand and felt for Pooh's paw.......
--Winnie-the-Pooh--
"It all comes, I suppose," he decided, as he spun round three times,
and flew gracefully into a gorse-bush,
"it all comes of liking honey so much. Oh, help!"
--Winnie-the-Pooh--
