Queen Sara Saturday : Oh, Friday, you have a one-track mind.
King Friday XIII : A one-jet stream mind, Sarah.

Mr. McFeely : It's some sort of machine for Corny's factory.
Prince Tuesday : Does it have any feelings?
Mr. McFeely : What do you mean, Prince Tuesday?
Prince Tuesday : I mean, does that machine have any feelings?
Mr. McFeely : It has specifications and instructions. It says nothing about feelings. Why do you ask?
Prince Tuesday : Just wondered.
Lady Aberlin : Prince Tuesday and I were talking about feelings and how machines don't have feelings.
Mr. McFeely : Oh, I see. No, I'm sure that this doesn't have feelings.
Prince Tuesday : Well then I'd like to trade places with it. Just leave the machine here and deliver me to Corny's.
Mr. McFeely : Oh I couldn't do that, Prince Tuesday. You'll never be a machine.
Prince Tuesday : Even if I don't want to have any feelings?
Mr. McFeely : No, you'll always be a person and persons have feelings and that's the way it is.
-
Prince Tuesday : I don't mind having good feelings, but I don't like the bad ones.
Mr. McFeely : Well I know how you feel, young man, and there's one thing I'd like to tell you: I'm sure glad to know you.
Prince Tuesday : Why?
Mr. McFeely : Because if you're concerned about feelings, you're growing up to be somebody who cares about people.

King Friday XIII : Have you two been playing airplane?
Lady Aberlin : No, we've been building with paper cups and pretending they were puppets and...
King Friday XIII : Of course, you could pretend they were airplanes.
Lady Aberlin : I guess we could.
King Friday XIII : You could put them end to end and fly them around.
Lady Aberlin : Like this?
[puts two of the cups together and flies them around]
Lady Aberlin : Bzzzzzzzzz-zzzzzzz.
King Friday XIII : Something like that. But make sure they sound like a jet. Jet planes go very fast, you know.
[in sotto voice]
King Friday XIII : Especially A & L jets.
[Louder, to Prince Tuesday]
King Friday XIII : YOU could pretend that they are jet planes too, Prince Tuesday.
Prince Tuesday : I don't want to.
King Friday XIII : Of course you do. Everybody wants to think about jets. I certainly do.
-
King Friday XIII : Now if a representative from A & L Jets should come, please tell her that I will be in the 'A' Room. Naturally.
Lady Aberlin , Prince Tuesday : Naturally.
King Friday XIII : Farewell.

Prince Tuesday : Does the Trolley ever get angry?
Lady Aberlin : I don't think so.
Prince Tuesday : Why?
Lady Aberlin : Well, Trolley is a machine, and machines don't have feelings.
Prince Tuesday : Oh. That's what I want to be.
Lady Aberlin : What?
Prince Tuesday : A machine.
Lady Aberlin : Why is that?
Prince Tuesday : Because I don't want to have feelings.
Lady Aberlin : Are you worried about some feelings that you've been having lately?
Prince Tuesday : Yes, and I don't want my mom and dad to have any feelings either.
Lady Aberlin : But that's what people are all about.
