| "You bounced me," said Eeyore gruffly. "I didn't really. I had a cough, and I happened to be behind Eeyore, and I said `_Grrrr --- oppp --- ptschschschz.'" "Why?" said Rabbit, helping Piglet up, and dusting him. "It's all right, Piglet." "It took me by surprise," said Piglet nervously. |

| Quote of the moment |
| For a man can lose neither the past nor the future; for how can one take from him that which is not his? So remember these two points: first, that each thing is of like form from everlasting and comes round again in its cycle, and that it signifies not whether a man shall look upon the same things for a hundred years or two hundred, or for an infinity of time; second, that the longest lived and the shortest lived man, when they come to die, lose one and the same thing. |

| Quote of the moment |
| That low man seeks a little thing to do, Sees it and does it; This high man, with a great thing to pursue, Dies ere he knows it. That low man goes on adding one to one,- His hundred's soon hit; This high man, aiming at a million, Misses an unit. That has the world here-should he need the next, Let the world mind him! This throws himself on God, and unperplexed Seeking shall find him. |
| ~ Robert Browning, A Grammarian's Funeral. ~ |
