Into the Woods

"The slotted spoon can catch the potato!"

"[to Baker's wife] Have you seen a boy with carrot-topped hair and a sunny, though occasionally vague, disposition, answering to the name of Jack?"

"There's a dead giant in my back yard!"

"[to female giant] We’ve suffered too! Do you think it was a picnic disposing of your husband's remains?"

"[to baker] No one cared when there was a dead giant in my backyard! I don't remember you volunteering to come to my aid."

"Milky-White! Now I have two friends: a cow and a harp!"

"I buried her in a footprint."

"The difference between a cow and a bean is a bean can begin an adventure!"

"I don't want another mother, I want a friend... And a pet."

"[After his mother says someday he will have a real pet] A piggy?"

"I miss my kingdom up in the sky."

"I wish my cow would give us some milk."

"Play harp."

"Please pal, squeeze pal."

"But where am I to go? I have no one to take care of me."

"Then he must DIE."

"I'm going to KILL him."

"There are big tall terrible giants in the sky"

"Maybe I shouldn't have stolen from the Giant."

"(incredulously, to Cinderella) You can talk to birds?"

"The prettier the flower, the farther from the path."

"[Referring to her sick grandmother] For all that I know, she's already dead."

"Nice is different than good."

"Stay away from my cape or I'll slice you into a thousand bits!"

"Maybe I shouldn't have strayed from the path."

"The SPECIAL beans!"

"Go to the wood!"

"(appearing during an argument between the Baker and his wife) WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO cares?!?!?! The cow is gone! Get it back! Get it back!"

"(hearing Rapunzel sing) Oh, my precious calls to me."

"(sweetly) Rapunzel, Rapunzel... (Rapunzel continues singing) RAPUNZEL! (strikes Rapunzel's tower with her staff) Let down your hair to me."

"(to Rapunzel) I was just trying to be a good mother!"

"The giant's a woman!"

"Sometimes the things you most wish for are not to be touched."

"Ask a wolf's mother."

"So big that we are just an expendable bug beneath its foot! BOOM! (stomps shoe on ground) Crunch..."

"(to narrator, after he says that he has to tell the story) Some of us don't like the way you've been telling it."

"When you're dead, you're dead."

"Don't you know what's out there in the world? Someone has to shield you from the world"

"Princes wait there in the world, it's true. Princes, yes, but wolves and humans too"

"It's your father's fault that the curse got placed and the place got cursed in the first place."

"(to main characters, during Last Midnight) You're so nice. You're not good; you're not bad; you're just nice."

"Careful the things you say—children will listen."

"(to Wife) Will you please go home!"

"(to Wife) Well... perhaps it will take the two of us to get this child."

"(gesturing towards Milky-White) Look at her, she's crying!"

"(about his baby) He always cries when I hold him."

"I will care for him... when he is older."

"(to Jack) It's magic that... defies description."

"(to baby) Once upon a time... in a far-off kingdom... there lived a young maiden, a sad young lad, and a childless baker... with his wife."

"Slotted spoons don't hold much soup."
