Notes From The Hunny Jar



In doing some casual reading recently in Uncle John's Bathroom Reader (Click Here To Visit Uncle John's Bathroom Reader Institute), I came across some words of wisdom from the venerable Pooh Bear. Simplistic in virtue, his musings should oft be repeated...

Words Of Wisdom From Winnie The Pooh

"Rivers know this: There is no hurry. We shall get there."

"To the uneducated, an A is just 3 sticks."

"When going 'round a spinney of larch trees Tracking Something, be sure it isn't your own footprints you are following."

"You can't stay in your corner of the forest waiting for people to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes."

"When you are a Bear of very little brain and you think of things, you find sometimes that a thing which seems very thing-ish inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open and has other people looking at it."

"Sometimes, it you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you, you suddenly know everything there is to be known."

"One advantage to being disorderly is that one is constantly making exciting discoveries."

"Those who are clever, who have a brain, never understand anything."

"Before beginning a Hunt, it is wise to ask what you are looking for before you begin looking for it."

"When you fall on somebody, it's not enough to say you didn't mean to, after all, he probably didn't mean to be underneath you."

"It gets you nowhere if the other person's tail is only just in sight for the second half of the conversation."

"Don't underestimate the value of Doing Nothing, of just going along and not bothering."
