A.A. Milne Quotes

Nowhere Can I Think So Happily As In A Train. I Am Not Inspired; Nothing So Uncomfortable As That. I Am Never Seized With A Sudden Idea For A Masterpiece, Nor Form A Sudden Plan For Some New Enterprise. My Thoughts Are Just Pleasantly Reflective. I Think Of All The Good Deeds I Have Done, And (when These Give Out) Of All The Good Deeds I Am Going To Do. I Look Out Of The Window And Say Lazily To Myself, "How Jolly To Live There"; And A Little Farther On, "How Jolly Not To Live There." I See A Cow, And I Wonder What It Is Like To Be A Cow, And I Wonder Whether The Cow Wonders What It Is To Be Like Me; And Perhaps, By This Time, We Have Passed On To A Sheep, And I Wonder If It Is More Fun Being A Sheep. My Mind Wanders On In A Way Which Would Annoy Pelman A Good Deal, But It Wanders On Quite Happily, And The "clankety-clank" Of The Train Adds A Very Soothing Accompaniment. So Soothing, Indeed, That At Any Moment I Can Close My Eyes And Pass Into A Pleasant State Of Sleep.
