"Second to the right, and straight on till morning."
That, Peter had told Wendy, was the way to the Neverland; but even birds, carrying maps and consulting them at windy corners, could not have sighted it with these instructions. Peter, you see, just said anything that came into his head.
(Two out of three of my boys were like Peter; they said anything that came into their heads. Often what came out of their heads was funny or profound or brilliant. Sometimes only their father and I knew what in the world they were talking about; not because they were secrets they only shared with us but because we knew them so well and, living with them, we knew the context. Our other son thought more than he talked. He still does.)
