...halloween 2023: from Neverland...



"But mother, I don't want to grow up.”

 "You know, you look exactly the way I thought you would.
A little taller perhaps.”

“It is not in doing what you like,
but in liking what you do that is the secret of happiness.”

“Now, think of the happiest things.
It's the same as having wings!”

“Oh, but, mother, it was a such a wonderful adventure!”

 “It is the nightly custom of every good mother
after her children are asleep to rummage in their minds
and put things straight for the next morning,
repacking into their proper places the
many articles that have wandered during the day.”

Wendy: "But what were you doing there?"
Peter: " I came to listen to your stories. "
Wendy: "My stories? But they're all about you!"
Peter: "I know! That's why I like 'em!"


"I'm Youth! I'm Joy!"

"Oh, the cleverness of me!"

“Children have the strangest adventures without being troubled by them."

“I'm so happy, I think I'll give you a kiss.”

“After all, one can’t leave his shadow lying about
and not miss it sooner or later, don’t you agree?”

“Stop playing and help me find my shadow!
Shadow … shadow …”

“Just always be waiting for me.”

 “All of this has happened before,
and it will all happen again.”

“Well, a mother, a real mother,
is the most wonderful person in the world.
She's the angel voice that bids you goodnight,
kisses your cheek, whispers ‘sleep tight.’”

“Go on!
Go back and grow up!
But I’m warning you,
once you’re grown up you can never come back.”
