Silly Old Bear...

Hello.
As said in my previous post i have to do a post on Winnie the Pooh. He has been a great character throughout my childhood not only because i thought he was extremely cute and most of my friends associated me with him in primary school but he has entertained me throughout my boredom as a child. When my mum passed her driving test she bought a HUGE Winnie the Pooh Bear (huge at the time because i was relatively small) , which i still keep in my room. I've shared many memories with him, for he was my first pupil learning twinkle twinkle little star and then falling over just as we reached the end of the song (he had issues sitting upright). Anyway, i thought I'd inspire you with a few A.A. Milne quotes, that I've grown rather fond to lately.

Winnie the Pooh and Piglet.

“If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day so I never have to live without you.” 
― A.A. MilneWinnie-the-Pooh



“How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.” 
― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh




“Sometimes,' said Pooh, 'the smallest things take up the most room in your heart.” 
― A.A. Milne





“I think we dream so we don’t have to be apart for so long. If we’re in each other’s dreams, we can be together all the time.” 
― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh




“You can't stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.” 
― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh




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



“Did you ever stop to think, and forget to start again?” 
― A.A. Milne



“I'm not lost for I know where I am. But however, where I am may be lost.” 
― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh




“Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there some day.” 
― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh




“How do you spell 'love'?" - Piglet 
"You don't spell it...you feel it." - Pooh” 
― A.A. Milne




“Promise me you'll never forget me because if I thought you would, I'd never leave.” 
― A.A. Milne




“If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart. I'll stay there forever.” 
― A.A. Milne




“What do you like doing best in the world, Pooh?" 
"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. And then he thought that being with Christopher Robin was a very good thing to do, and having Piglet near was a very friendly thing to have; and so, when he had thought it all out, he said, "What I like best in the whole world is Me and Piglet going to see You, and You saying 'What about a little something?' and Me saying, 'Well, I shouldn't mind a little something, should you, Piglet,' and it being a hummy sort of day outside, and birds singing." 
"I like that too," said Christopher Robin, "but what I like doing best is Nothing.” 
― A.A. MilneThe House at Pooh Corner



“TTFN Ta Ta For Now!” 
― A.A. Milne
