“Through gypsy camps and swirling Arab fair, and moonlit woods where unicorns run free.”

“She is free in her wildness, she is a wanderess, a drop of free water. She belongs to no man and to no city. She knows nothing of borders and invents her own rules and customs. 'Time' for her isn’t something to fight against. Her life flows clean, with passion, like fresh water.”

“Not for a moment had I been afraid. It is true that whoever would cross the threshold of any world, must leave fear behind him; but, for myself, I could claim no part in its absence. No conscious courage was operant in me; simply, I was not afraid. I neither knew why I was not afraid, nor wherefore I might have been afraid. I feared not even fear—which of all dangers is the most dangerous.”

“Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting;
The soul that rises with us, our life's star,
Hath elsewhere had its setting,
And cometh from afar:
Not in entire forgetfulness,
And not in utter nakedness,
But trailing clouds of glory, do we come
From God, who is our home.”
― The Water-Babies

“You are nicer than I am,” said Sara. “I was too proud to try and make friends. You see, now that trials have come, they have shown that I am not a nice child. I was afraid they would. Perhaps”--wrinkling her forehead wisely--“that is what they were sent for.”
“I don’t see any good in them,” said Ermengarde stoutly.
“Neither do I--to speak the truth,” admitted Sara, frankly. “But I suppose there might be good in things, even if we don’t see it. There might”--doubtfully--“be good in Miss Minchin.”
