Back in the 1950s and '60s, J. M. Barrie's 'Peter Pan' — starring Mary Martin and Cyril Ritchard — was regularly aired on network television during the Christmas season. I must have seen it four or five times and remember, in particular, Ritchard's gloriously camp interpretation of Captain Hook.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with ...My mother loved entertaining, and I've followed suit...Every one soon or late comes round by Rome...Abundance is a process of letting go...A king, realizing his incompetence...Set your goals high, and don't stop...
