The Little Princess

Sara: I don't have a mother either... she's in heaven with my baby sister... But that
doesn't mean I can't talk to her, I talk to her all the time... I tell her everything and
I know she hears me because... because that's what angels do. My mom is an
angel and yours is too. With beautiful satin wings, a silk dress, and a crown of
baby rosebuds, and they all live together in a castle. And do you know what it's
made out of? Sunflowers. Hundreds of them, so bright they shine like the sun.
And when they want to go anywhere they just whistle, like this...(whistles) and a
cloud swoops down to the front gate and picks them up and as they ride through
the air, over the moon and through the stars... until they are hovering right above
us, that's how they can look down and make sure we're all right. And sometimes
they even send messages. Of course you can't hear them with all the noise you
were making... but don't worry they'll always try again... just in case you missed
them.
‘The Fault In Our Stars’ by Scott Neustadter & Michael H. Weber

Hazel takes a piece of paper from the envelope, walks up to the dais. She takes a
beat to ready herself. And begins.

HAZEL: “Augustus Waters was the great starcrossed love of my life. Ours was an
epic love story, and I won’t be able to get more than a sentence into it without
disappearing into a puddle of tears. (beat) Like all real love stories - ours will die
with us, as it should. I’d hoped that he’d be eulogizing me, because there’s no one
I’d rather have...” And that’s all she can get out before falling apart. She lets it out
for a couple beats and then pulls herself together. HAZEL (CONT’D): (beat,
composing herself) “I can’t talk about our love story so instead I will talk about
math. I am not a mathematician, but I know this: there are infinite numbers
between 0 and 1. There’s .1 And .12 And .112 And an infinite collection of others.
Of course, there is a bigger infinite set of numbers between 0 and 2, or between 0
and a million. Some infinities are bigger than other infinities. A writer we used to
like taught us that. I want more numbers than I’m likely to get, and God, I want
more numbers for Augustus Waters than he got. But, Gus, my love, I cannot tell
you how thankful I am for our little infinity. You gave me a forever within the
numbered days, and for that I am eternally grateful. I love you.”
Harry Potter

Hermione Granger: "Has anyone seen a toad? A boy named Neville has lost one!
[Turns to the side] Oh, are you doing magic? Let's see then….[reacts to Ron's
crappy spell]…Are you sure that's a real spell? Well, it's not very good, is it? I've
tried a few simple spells myself and they've all worked for me! For example:
Oculus Reparo. That's better isn't it? Holy cricket! You're Harry Potter! I'm
Hermione Granger. And you are...? Pleasure. Well, nobody in my family's magic at
all, and it was ever such a surprise when I got my letter, but I was ever so pleased
of course. It's the best school of witchcraft there is, I've heard! You two better get
into your robes. I expect we'll be arriving soon. You've dirt on your nose by the
way. Just there.

101 Dalmatians
written by John Hughes, from the novel by Dodie Smith 

Cruella De Vil: You beasts! But I'm not beaten yet. You've won the battle, but I'm
about to win the wardrobe. My spotty puppy coat is in plain sight and leaving
tracks. In a moment I'll have what I came for, while all of you will end up as
sausage meat, alone on some sad, plastic plate. Dead and medium red. No
friends, no family, no pulse. Just slapped between two buns, smothered in onions,
with fries on the side. Cruella De Vil has the last laugh!
