When King Lear dies in act five, do you know what Shakespeare has written? He has written, 'He dies.' No more. No fanfare, no metaphor, no brilliant final words. The culmination of the most influential piece of dramatic literature is, 'He dies.' Now I am not asking you to be happy at my leaving but all I ask you to do is to turn the page and let the next story begin. -- Mr. Magorium

Turn the page, continue reading, and let the next story begin.

No. We breathe. We pulse. We regenerate. Our hearts beat. Our minds create. Our souls ingest. 37 seconds, well used, is a lifetime.

Mahoney: You have to live. Mr. Magorium: Darlin'...I have.

You become the monster you fear the worst, so the monster won't overtake you.

You have to know where you were going in order to get there.
