• Crybaby : Why is he forcing medication on everyone?

• Crybaby : You ever wonder who we were to each other in a past life?

  Angelita : Oh, for sure. I feel like we've had hundreds of lives together.

  Crybaby : And our parents sold us to a fucking freak show.

  Angelita : That would explain a lot.

  Crybaby : It would.

• Crybaby : Wanna know something I learned about bodies? They don't define us. We aren't our bodies, they're just temporary. It seems impossible, but, try not to expect shallow people to love you. They don't even have the capacity to understand how amazing you are. And... we all have to learn how to love ourselves without the approval of others.

  Fleur : I know. It's just... extremely overwhelming when... everyone around you is making you feel like you aren't good enough. As if you're not deserving of the same kind of love if you're different.

  Crybaby : Everyone's deserving of love. Everyone.

• Crybaby : [thinking]  I shouldn't have lost control like that. She's not a bad person, she's just projecting her insecurities onto me.

• Lilith : Continue on, and live your truth. Do not hold fear in your heart.

  Crybaby : Please, we don't want to die here.

  Lilith : You've had many bodies before this, and will continue to have more. You're immortal.

  Angelita : But we're exhausted.

  Crybaby : We don't want to feel this anymore.

  Lilith : You must feel the physical pain of this world, because the only way we can truly learn... is through experience.

• Angelita : Did you guys know there are actually two holes down there?

  Celeste : ...You didn't know you had a butthole?

  Angelita : [chuckles]  No, I mean in your vagina. There are two separate holes.

  Crybaby : Are you sure...?

  Celeste : Hey, guys.

  Crybaby : I think I need to see a doctor.

  Celeste : Yeah, there's your urethra and your vagina.

  Celeste : You guys.

  Crybaby : Oh, okay, got it. So, one hole that you can pee out of, and the other one that you can...

  Celeste : Why does no-one listen to me? Guys! The ball is floating away.
