Maggie and Eeyore

Do you have a favourite cartoon character?

I think it is always hard to pick favourites of things but in the case of cartoons I would either go for Maggie in the Simpsons or Eeyore.


Maggie and Eeyore are an extremely unlikely combination. Maggie says nothing but is usually quite cheerful about it. Eeyore is also fairly taciturn but is gloom personified (or should that be donkified?).


“People come and go in this Forest, and they say, ‘It’s only Eeyore, so it doesn’t count’.”

“Sing. Enjoy yourself. Some can. We can’t all, and some of us don’t. that’s all there is to it.”

“Nobody tells me. Nobody keeps me informed. I make it seventeen days come Friday since anybody spoke to me. ....Owl flew past a day or two ago and noticed me. He didn’t actually say anything, mind you, but he knew it was me. Very friendly of him, I thought. Emcouraging.”


“It’ll rain soon, you see if it doesn’t...."

"It’s snowing still. And freezing. However, we haven’t had an earthquake lately.”

“One can’t complain. I have my friends. Somebody spoke to me only yesterday.”
