- Woman's Voice: [Daniel dreaming] I remember when I was a little girl, my dad took me to the circus, the greatest show on earth. There were clowns and elephants and dancing bears, and a beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads. And as I sat there watching, I had the feeling that something was missing. I don't know what, but when it was all over, I said to myself, "Is that all there is to the circus?"
- Trey Willis: [suddenly along side Daniel] Uh-oh, here comes trouble.
- Woman's Voice: I know what you must be saying to yourselves, "If that's the way she feels about it, why doesn't she just end it all?" Oh, no.
- Trey Willis: Cat's got his tongue.
- Woman's Voice: I'm not ready yet for that final disappointment. For I know just as well as I'm standing here talking to you, when that final moment comes and I'm breathing my last breath, I'll be saying to myself, "Is that all? Is that all there is to dying?"

- Trey Willis: [to Daniel] You are who you are. Okay? It's forever. It's like being an Indian or something. I know you. Now you know you. If you ever really forgot.

- Daniel Holden: No.
