“Fill your house with stacks of books, in all the crannies and all the nooks.”

“The words in this book are all phooey. When you say them, your lips will make slips and back flips and your tongue may end up in Saint Looey!”

“The sun did not shine. It was too wet to play. So we sat in the house. All that cold, cold, wet day.”

“You can find magicwherever you look.Sit back and relax,all you need is a book.”

“No matter what you do, somebody always imputes meaning into your books.”

“DayPlayWe play all day.NightFightWe fight all night.”

“It all began with a shoe on the wall. A shoe on the wall shouldn't be there at all.”
