"Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore."

Cowardly Lion:  Alright, I'll go in there for Dorothy. Wicked Witch or no Wicked Witch, 
guards or no guards, I'll tear them apart. I may not come out alive, but I'm going in there. 
There's only one thing I want you fellows to do.
Tinman, Scarecrow: What's that?
Cowardly Lion:  Talk me out of it.

Lion: Courage! What makes a king out of a slave? Courage! 
What makes the flag on the mast to wave? Courage! 
What makes the elephant charge his tusk in the misty mist, or the dusky dusk? 
What makes the muskrat guard his musk? Courage! 
What makes the sphinx the seventh wonder? Courage! 
What makes the dawn come up like thunder? Courage! 
What makes the Hottentot so hot? What puts the "ape" in apricot? 
What have they got that I ain't got?
All: Courage!
Lion: You can say that again! Huh?

~ ruby slippers ~

Lion: I do believe in spooks. I do believe in spooks. I do! I do! I do! I do believe in spooks. 
I do believe in spooks. I do! I do! I do! I do!

~ ruby slippers ~

Lion: I-I-I hope my strength holds out.
Tinman: (hanging by Lion's tail) "I hope your tail holds out!

~ ruby slippers ~

Lion: Look at the circles under my eyes. I haven't slept in weeks.
Tinman: Why don't you try counting sheep?
Lion: That doesn't do any good; I'm afraid of 'em.

"A heart is not judged by how much you love; but by how much you are loved by others."

~ The Wizard of Oz ~

"Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable."

~ The Wizard of Oz ~

...if I ever go looking for my heart's desire 
again, I won't look any further than my own back yard. Because 
if it isn't there, I never really lost it to begin with.

~ Dorothy ~

Somewhere over the rainbow
way up high,
there's a land that I heard of
once in a lullaby.

Somewhere over the rainbow
skies are blue,
and the dreams that you dare to dream
really do come true.
