Scarecrow: That's the trouble. I can't make up my mind. I haven't got a brain. Only straw.
Dorothy: How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?
Scarecrow: I don't know. Some people without brains do an awful lot of talking, don't they?Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.
If I only had a heart. I'd be tender, I'd be gentle.
And awful sentimental.
Regarding love and art, I'd be friends with the sparrows
And the boy that shoots the arrows, If I only had a heart
Dorothy: Lions?
Scarecrow: And tigers?
Tin Man: And bears!
Dorothy: Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!
Dorothy: Shame on you!
Lion (earnestly sobbing): What did you do that for? I didn't bite him.
Dorothy: No, but you tried to. It's bad enough picking on a Straw Man but when you go around picking on poor little dogs...
Lion: Well, you didn't have to go and hit me, did ya? Is my nose bleeding?
Dorothy: Well, of course not. My goodness. What a fuss you're making.
[The Lion dabs his tear-filled eyes with the tip of his wavering tail] Well, naturally when you go around picking on things weaker than you are. Why, you're nothing but a great big coward!
Lion (sobbing): You're right. I am a coward. I haven't any courage at all. I even scare myself. Look at the circles under my eyes. I haven't slept in weeks.
Tin Woodsman: Why don't you try counting sheep?
Lion: That doesn't do any good. I'm afraid of 'em.
Oh! You cursed brat. Look what you've done. I'm melting! Melting! Oh, what a world! What a world! Who would have thought a good little girl like you could destroy my beautiful wickedness. Oh, I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm going. Oh. Oh.
Dorothy is confronted by the head of the Winkies: "She's dead. You killed her."
"Hail to Dorothy! The Wicked Witch is dead!" Dorothy is presented with the defunct witch's broomstick after freeing herself and her friends - she turns excitedly to them: "Now we can go back to the Wizard and tell him the Wicked Witch is dead."
Why, anybody can have a brain. They think deep thoughts and with no more brains than you have! You're a victim of disorganized thinking. You are under the unfortunate delusion that simply because you run away from danger you have no courage. You're confusing courage with wisdom. And remember, my sentimental friend, that a heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others. They had those leadership qualities inside from the very start - but they hadn't looked deep enough to find them.In a self-revelation, she realizes that everything she could ever have wanted was right in her own backyard - IF she had wanted it hard enough. [She relinquishes the miracle-working power of the Wizard - he has floated away - and relies upon her own power and personality to find her independent identity and way home. By returning to the Gale home after fantasizing about the enchanting world beyond and experiencing it along the Yellow Brick Road, she has confronted her childhood fears and grown up emotionally with strength enough to meet her adult future. In some ways, the journey was as rewarding as the accomplishment of her goal.] Glinda reveals the meaning of the ruby slippers - they will carry her (and Toto) back.

I hope you dance by LAWomack
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat, but always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Promise me that you'll give fate a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance, I hope you dance
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances, but they're worth taking
Loving might be a mistake but it's worth making
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter
When you come close to selling out, reconsider
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance (time is a wheel in constant motion always)
I hope you dance (rolling us along)
I hope you dance (tell me who wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
I hope you dance (where those years have gone)
Life is about changes; it is about risk taking; it is about planning for your future; it is about the one who makes you laugh and understands you; it is about commitment and hope and staying on course til you achieved your dreams. It is about love, hope and faith in one another.
