The Lost Boys (1978)
Nicholas Borton: Jack
Quotes
-
J.M. Barrie : Every time a boy says, "I don't believe in fairies," there's a fairy somewhere in the world that falls down dead.
George : He's right, you know.
Jack : Then I must have killed tons of them.
-
J.M. Barrie : They're Pan pipes... They might have even been left here by the Great God Pan himself.
Jack : Wait a minute, those aren't Pan's pipes. Look, they're Peter's. They're the ones Peter got in his stocking at Christmas.
J.M. Barrie : Peter Pan's, then.
George : Who's Peter Pan?
J.M. Barrie : Why, everyone knows who Peter Pan is.
George : I don't. I think you've just made him up.
Jack : And I think you stole those pipes from our nursery!
J.M. Barrie : Aboslute poppycock!
Jack : How'd they get here, then?
J.M. Barrie : Well, I... I expect... uh... I daresay Peter left them behind when he flew back.
J.M. Barrie : Oh, ye of little faith! Why do you think your mother, why do you think your loving parents put bars on the nursery windows? It's to keep you from flying away.

Mary Hodgson : Say your grace first.
George : Thanks for the tea.
Mary Hodgson : That wasn't much of a grace.
George : It wasn't much of a tea, either. Jack ate it all.
Sylvia Llewelyn Davies : Jack, if you go on stuffing like that, you'll be sick tomorrow.
Jack : I'll be sick tonight!
-
J.M. Barrie : I'll make you a sporting offer. I'll give you a shilling now, and there's the the end of it, or I'll pay you a halfpenny for every night of the play I use it in.
Jack : Mother, what do you think?
Sylvia Llewelyn Davies : Well, dearest, it all depends on whether or not you think Mr. Barrie's play is going to be a success.
[George whispers something in Jack's ear]
Jack : In that case, I'll take the money.
-
George : Mr. Barrie's been telling us the most awful stories. Can't he stay and tell us just one more?
Sylvia Llewelyn Davies : I'm sure he's had quite enough of both of you for one evening. Don't I get a kiss?
Jack : Oh, all right, but if Father tries it, I'll kick him.
George : Are you going out for long?
Sylvia Llewelyn Davies : No, and you'll be quite safe. Nothing can harm you once the night-lights are lit, despite what Mr. Barrie may have told you.
Jack : I'm not scared.
Sylvia Llewelyn Davies : Sweet dreams.
George : Goodnight, Mother.
