“Everything that anyone would ever look for is usually where they find it.”

“In this modern world where activity is stressed almost to the point of mania, quietness as a childhood need is too often overlooked. Yet a child's need for quietness is the same today as it has always been--it may even be greater--for quietness is an essential part of all awareness. In quiet times and sleepy times a child can dwell in thoughts of his own, and in songs and stories of his own.”

“When the groundhog casts his shadowAnd the small birds singAnd the pussywillows happenAnd the sun shines warmAnd when the peepers peepThen it is Spring”

“Goodnight stars, goodnight air, goodnight noises everywhere.”

“Dear Father, hear and bless thy beasts and singing birds, and guard with tenderness small things that have no words.”

“Goodnight nobody, goodnight mush”

“Once there was a little bunny who wanted to run away. So he said to his mother, "I am running away"."If you run away", said his mother, "I will run after you. For you are my little bunny".”
