"What day is it?", asked Pooh.
"It’s today", squeaked Piglet.
"My favorite day", said Pooh.

"A bear, however hard he tries,
Grows tubby without exercise.
Our Teddy Bear is short and fat,
Which is not to be wondered at.
But do you think it worries him
To know that he is far from slim?
No, just the other way about -
He's proud of being short and stout."
A. A. Milne
"Happiness", A.A. Milne.

"A novel worth reading is an education of the heart. It enlarges your sense of human possibility, of what human nature is, of what happens in the world. It’s a creator of inwardness."
