“So avoid using the word ‘very’ because it’s lazy. A man is not very tired, he is exhausted. Don’t use very sad, use morose. Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women - and, in that endeavor, laziness will not do. It also won’t do in your essays.”
― N.H. Kleinbaum, Dead Poets Society

“children know such a lot now, they soon don't believe in fairies, and every time a child says, 'I don't believe in fairies,' there is a fairy somewhere that falls down dead.”
― J.M. Barrie

“Absence makes the heart grow fonder… or forgetful.”
― J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan

“Odd things happen to all of us on our way through life without our noticing for a time that they have happened.”
― J. M. Barrie
