Movie/TV title:

Finding Neverland



Character name:

Peter Llewelyn Davies




Quote(s)
:

  • Peter Llewelyn Davies: This is absurd. It's just a dog.
    J.M. Barrie: Just a dog? *Just*?
    [to Porthos]
    J.M. Barrie: Porthos, don't listen!
    [to Peter]
    J.M. Barrie: Porthos dreams of being a bear, and you want to shatter those dreams by saying he's *just* a dog? What a horrible candle-snuffing word. That's like saying, "He can't climb that mountain, he's just a man", or "That's not a diamond, it's just a rock." Just.
  • Jack Llewelyn Davies: [Michael tries to fly the kite the first time] Oh, I told you this wasn't going to work!
    Peter Llewelyn Davies: I don't think he's fast enough.
    J.M. Barrie: It's not going to work if no-one believes in him!
  • Peter Llewelyn Davies: It's just, I thought she'd always be here.
    J.M. Barrie: So did I. But in fact, she is, because she's on every page of your imagination. You'll always have her there. Always.
    Peter Llewelyn Davies: But why did she have to die?
    J.M. Barrie: I don't know, Peter. When I think of your mother, I will always remember how happy she looked, sitting there in the parlor watching a play about her family, about her boys that never grew up. She went to Neverland. And you can visit her any time you like if you just go there yourself.
    Peter Llewelyn Davies: How?
    J.M. Barrie: By believing, Peter. Just believe.
  • Peter Llewelyn Davies: I'm not Peter Pan.
    [points at J. M. Barrie]
    Peter Llewelyn Davies: He is.
  • J.M. Barrie: What did you think?
    Peter Llewelyn Davies: It's about our summer together, isn't it?
    J.M. Barrie: It is.
    Peter Llewelyn Davies: About all of us.
    J.M. Barrie: That's right. You like it?
    Peter Llewelyn Davies: It's magical. Thank you.
    J.M. Barrie: No, thank you. Thank you, Peter.
  • J.M. Barrie: Peter, I was hoping to use your name for one of the characters in my next play. If you will allow me, that is.
    Peter Llewelyn Davies: I don't know what to say.
    J.M. Barrie: [smiling] Say yes.

    Charlie Bucket



    Quote(s)
    :

  • Charlie Bucket: Are the Oompa Loompas really joking, grandpa?
    Grandpa Joe: Of course they're joking. That boy will be fine.
    [looks worried]
  • Mike Teavee: Why is everything here completely pointless?
    Charlie Bucket: Candy doesn't have to have a point. That's why it's candy.

  • Charlie Bucket: [on chocolate river, deep in factory, passing an open door in which Oompa-Loompas are whipping a cow] Whipped cream.
    Willy Wonka: Precisely!
    Veruca Salt: That doesn't make sense.
    Willy Wonka: For your information, little girl, whipped cream isn't whipped cream at all unless it's been whipped with whips. Everybody knows that.
  • Charlie Bucket: So, if I go with you to the factory, I won't ever see my family again?
    Willy Wonka: Yeah! Consider that a bonus!
  • Charlie Bucket: Sorry we're late. We were brainstorming.
    Grandpa George: Thought I heard thunder.

    Quote(s)
    :
  • Hope: [as August enters the room] You the one slept under my bed?
    August Rush: [watches her as she plays the piano] Do you live here?
    Hope: Me and my grandma do till our boat comes in. Do you like music?
    August Rush: More than food.
    Hope: [looks at him strangely, then continues] Do you know your notes?
    August Rush: I've never seen them like that before.
    Hope: See here: "Every Good Boy Does Fine" on the lines. And "F-A-C-E" in between. And "Great Big Dogs Fight Animals". And "All Cars Eat Gas". Get it?
    August Rush: You're like an angel.
    Hope: [thinks August is weird] Okay. I gotta go.
  • August Rush: The music is all around you, all you have to do is listen.
  • August Rush: [in voiceover] But I believe in music... The way that some people believe in fairy tales.
  • August Rush: [opening voice-over] Listen. Can you hear it? The music. I can hear it everywhere. In the wind... in the air... in the light. It's all around us. All you have to do is open yourself up. All you have to do... is listen.

  • August Rush: Sometimes the world tries ot knock it out of you. But I believe in music the way that some people believe in fairy tales. I like to imagine that what I hear came from my mother and father. Maybe the notes I hear, are the same ones they heard, the night they met. Maybe that's how they found each other. Maybe that's how they'll find me. I believe that once upon a time, long ago, they heard the music and followed it.

  • Richard Jeffries: How long have you been here?
    August Rush: Eleven years and sixteen days.
    [Jeffries stares at August]
    August Rush: I've been counting.

  • Wizard: What do you want to be in the world? I mean, the whole world, what do you want to be? Close your eyes and think about that.
    August Rush: Found.

    • Personal Quotes:

      * When I left the set of Finding Neverland (2004), I was quite upset, because I thought I wouldn't see Johnny again. And Charlie wants to go back to the chocolate factory. We both got our wishes.

      * "Smashing up the playhouse, that was really great. Sometimes they'd say, 'Oh, sorry, there was a problem with the sound or the lights.' And I'd say, 'Yes! I get to smash it up again!" - On his favourite scene in 'Finding Neverland'

      * [Talking about being treated like an adult] That was really important for me, although I think I am a bit more mature than some kids my age because I've spent more time with adults. And I haven't grown my hair over my eyes or anything.

      * It's nice to pick up the guitar now and again and play back the songs and be reminded of the film -- but if you gave me any other songs to play, I wouldn't be very good at them.

      * [Talking about his dressing room demands] Because I'm a spoiled little brat, I absolutely always insist on a table and chair and lighting. This February I'm even going to demand heating.

      * Scary is good. Kids like going to a movie and being really scared rather than fake scared.

      * [On celebrity] As long as you don't stand on the corner and wave your arms about, people don't notice you too much.
