We shall get there some day.” “You can’t stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.” “Some people care too much. I think it’s called Love.” “You’re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.”All spines of dustjackets tanned and some slight rubbing.
