Winnie The Pooh


Upon my internet browsing, I came across some quotes from Winnie-The-Pooh. So I looked deeper, and I realized that silly yellow bear gave us some amazing lessons.

So here's some quotes to brighten your day.

“If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together... there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart... I'll always be with you.”

“How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.”

“Weeds are flowers, too, once you get to know them.”

“Some people care too much. I think it's called love.”

“You can't stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.”

“If the person you are talking to doesn't appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be that he has a small piece of fluff in his ear.”

“People say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.”

“Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there some day.”

“What day is it?"
It's today," squeaked Piglet.
My favorite day," said Pooh.”

“Sometimes, if you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you, you will suddenly know everything there is to be known.”

"Don't underestimate the value of Doing Nothing, of just going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering.”

“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.”

“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 by and by Christopher Robin came to the end of things, and he was silent, and he sat there, looking out over the world, just wishing it wouldn't stop.”

Simple thoughts, and a warm nostalgia that leads to a comfortable thoughtfulness that we can't quite put to words. Thank you, you silly old bear.

Oh, and just to remind us that little things can leave a big legacy?
Here's the original stuffed animals, owned by Christopher Robin Milne, that the books were written about.
