Quotes from Munro Leaf

His mother saw that he was not lonesome, and because she was an understanding mother, even though she was a cow, she let him just sit there and be happy.

And for all I know he is sitting there still, under his favorite cork tree, smelling the flowers just quietly

A lot of people—young and old— have not done a very good job of taking care of our country so we can enjoy living in it. Almost everywhere today you see the marks of the stupid and the careless who are ruining what we should all take care of for our own pleasure—and our own good.

I like it better here where I can sit just quietly and smell the flowers.
