To mark the birthday of A. A. Milne<\/a>, creator of Winnie the Pooh and his beloved gaggle of woodland pals, we take a look at his heartwarming prose.<\/p>\n

Way before Taylor Swift’s #squadgoals became a thing, the likes of Pooh Bear, Piglet and co. were showing us how true friendship works.<\/p>\n

They knew the value of loyalty, humour and trust; and how sometimes, a good friend just needs more honey…<\/p>\n

Making genuine connections<\/a> and lifelong bonds<\/a> is also a theme here at Flash Pack.<\/p>\n

So, in the name of real, honest and deliciously funny friendship, we’ve shared a few of our favourite (and forever wise) Winnie the Pooh quotes, below.<\/p>\n

No matter how old you are, these golden words of wisdom never get tired:<\/p>\n

\"friendship\"<\/h3>\n

Being a cheerleader<\/strong><\/p>\n

“You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think”<\/p>\n

Reaching out<\/strong><\/p>\n

“You can’t stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.”<\/p>\n

Easy banter<\/strong><\/p>\n

“It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn’t use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like ‘What about lunch?'”<\/p>\n

\"friendship\"<\/p>\n

Creature comforts<\/strong><\/p>\n

“I don\u2019t feel very much like Pooh today,” said Pooh.<\/p>\n

“There there,” said Piglet. “I\u2019ll bring you tea and honey until you do.”<\/p>\n

True love<\/strong><\/p>\n

“How do you spell ‘love’?” – Piglet<\/p>\n

“You don’t spell it…you feel it.” – Pooh<\/p>\n

Lasting the distance<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We’ll be Friends Forever, won’t we, Pooh?” asked Piglet.<\/p>\n

“Even longer,” Pooh answered.<\/p>\n

\"friendship\"<\/p>\n

The caring vibe<\/strong><\/p>\n

“A little Consideration, a little Thought for Others, makes all the difference.”<\/p>\n

Got your corner<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Would you mind coming with me, Piglet, in case they turn out to be Hostile Animals?”<\/p>\n

Deep ‘n’ meaningful<\/strong><\/p>\n

“If there ever comes a day when we can\u2019t be together, keep me in your heart, I\u2019ll stay there forever.”<\/i><\/p>\n

The power of pals<\/strong><\/p>\n

“A day without a friend is like a pot without a single drop of honey left inside.”<\/p>\n
