Famous quotes by kenneth grahame:

    There is nothing—absolutely nothing—half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.
    Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932)

    Well, well, perhaps I am a bit of a talker. A popular fellow such as I am—my friends get round me—we chaff, we sparkle, we tell witty stories—and somehow my tongue gets wagging. I have the gift of conversation. I’ve been told I ought to have a salon, whatever that may be.
    Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932)
