Peter and Alice

PETER PAN: Any time they’re happy, they can’t wait to be sad.
ALICE IN WONDERLAND: Never here and now, always there and later.
PETER PAN: Always looking at the clock.
ALICE IN WONDERLAND: Looking over their shoulder.
PETER PAN: Then back at the clock.
ALICE IN WONDERLAND: Time for this, time for that, never time for “well, here we are, isn’t it glorious?”
PETER PAN: Go to a party, look at the cake, long for the cake, reach for the cake–
ALICE IN WONDERLAND: Don’t eat the cake.
PETER PAN: I love cake

ALICE: Lord, as many days as are left to me, I’ll never forget those letters burning… It was the cruelest thing I’d ever seen: all the lovely words, all his heart’s devotion, gone. As if they never existed

PETER: He loved Michael most… Uncle Jim always said that he made Peter Pan by rubbing the five of us violently together, as savages with two sticks produce a flame. But that’s not true. It was Michael, bold and fearless Michael… I was never bold. I always had fear.
ALICE: Of what?
PETER: What does every child fear? … Captain Hook
