“Birds are flyin' south for winter.”

“One picture puzzle piece”

“why can't you see i'm a kid', said the kid.”

“The bridge will only take you halfway there, to those mysterious lands you long to see. Through gypsy camps and swirling Arab fair, and moonlit woods where unicorns run free. So come and walk awhile with me and share the twisting trails and wondrous worlds I've known. But this bridge will only take you halfway there. The last few steps you have to take alone.”

“If you are a dreamer come in”

“My world was the size of a crayon box, and it took every colour to draw her”

“I swear, I end up feeling empty, like you've taken something out of me and I have to search my body for scars.”

“Follow, poet, follow right”

“I have been right, Basil, haven’t I, to take my love out of poetry, and to find my wife in Shakespeare’s plays? Lips that Shakespeare taught to speak have whispered their secret in my ear. I have had the arms of Rosalind around me, and kissed Juliet on the mouth.”

“A lot we have in our head,”

“Marriage I think”
