Winnie the Pooh quote
Colin Douthwaite
: "Rabbit's clever," said Pooh thoughtfully
: "Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit's clever."
: "And he has Brain."
: "Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit has Brain."
: There was a long silence.
: "I suppose," said Pooh, "that that's why he never understands anything."
: ---A.A. Milne
====================================================================
" Pooh," said Rabbit kindly, " You haven't any brain."
" I know," said Pooh humbly.

and by-and-by Pooh and Piglet went on again.
The wind was behind them now, so they didn't have to shout.
"Rabbit's clever," said Pooh thoughtfully
"Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit's clever."
"And he has Brain."
"Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit has a Brain."
There was a long silence.
"I suppose," said Pooh, " that that's why he never understands anything."
