Interview

 * …I still have a bunch of childlike [energy] in me. I still feel young and vibrant. I don’t ever want to lose that. I still feel that way. I’m 80, but I feel like I’m 30. I really do, physically and emotionally. I was a kid, and I was getting a chance to embark upon a life that I had thought was my impossible dream. Where I grew up, I didn’t think it was going to be possible for me to actually be in show business, to write songs and sing and make records, and all that. But that was my dream. It was what I wanted to do with my life, if possible. And I didn’t think it would be, so no, I wasn’t tripping like that.
 * On feeling that he has yet to “grow up” due to still feeling young at heart in “Let Smokey Robinson Tell You About Changing Music The living legend on his life, legacy, and Motown” in New York Magazine (2020 Nov 19)

 * …As far as I’m concerned, Motown was a once-in-a-lifetime musical event. Nothing like that happened before. I seriously doubt anything like that will ever happen again...
 * On missing his Motown years in “Let Smokey Robinson Tell You About Changing Music The living legend on his life, legacy, and Motown” in New York Magazine (2020 Nov 19)

 * …If you had a good song, and you were a producer or writer at Motown, you had access to all the artists. It didn’t matter who had the last hit record. If they liked you at all, you had the opportunity. I wanted to write something sweet for David Ruffin to sing, which became “My Girl.” And he sang the shit out of it, so it was contagious. I don’t regret that whatsoever.
 * On whether he ever regretted giving away a song his wrote in “Let Smokey Robinson Tell You About Changing Music The living legend on his life, legacy, and Motown” in New York Magazine (2020 Nov 19)

 * …“Who’s Loving You” is about a person who had somebody they really loved but did that person wrong and took them for granted, so that person left. And they’re sitting around later, grieving, thinking about the wrong that they did to this person, and who’s loving that person now. There’s no way an 11-year-old child could know that. But this dude sang that song like he had written it, like he knew all about it. It became his song. If I sing it somewhere now, if I even sing a part of it, young people in the audience come to me and say, “Why are you singing a Michael Jackson song?”…
 * On the song “Who’s Loving You” and how Michael Jackson’s version became more popular than his own version in “Let Smokey Robinson Tell You About Changing Music The living legend on his life, legacy, and Motown” in New York Magazine (2020 Nov 19)

 * …it’s disappointing for the people who are still of that frame of mind to be in that place where they think that people are different. The only difference between people is the texture and the color of our skin. If you skinned everybody alive, you wouldn’t know who anyone was. All our hearts are in the same place, our organs, our everything is in the same place. We all have red blood. We’re all human beings. It’s almost 2021. It’s a damn shame that all this time’s gone in life, and people still don’t get that. I’ve wished many times that we would get attacked by some outer-space planet or something like that so we can all come together as earthlings and help each other. See, there’s evil, and there’s good, and people who adopt evil, that’s who they are. It ain’t got shit to do with the color of their skin or where they live. And young people are seeing through that shit…
 * On the issue of racism and how it was exacerbated during the Trump Administration in “Let Smokey Robinson Tell You About Changing Music The living legend on his life, legacy, and Motown” in New York Magazine (2020 Nov 19)

 * …The concept of the United States of America is the greatest concept in the world. It’s beautiful. It’s a wonderful concept. There’s no place like America. So, for people to come in and try to fuck that up is ridiculous. I’m a Black man, and I’m telling you this: I’ve been all over the world. The only places I haven’t been are Africa, China, and Russia. Here, people say “African American.” Don’t call me no African American. I’m a Black American. [You’re not] going to label me to try to say that I don’t belong in this country when my people have fought and died to establish this country. Black soldiers have fought and died for this country. They were doing it for Mississippi and Georgia and Alabama. I’m a Black American.
 * On his racial identity in “Let Smokey Robinson Tell You About Changing Music The living legend on his life, legacy, and Motown” in New York Magazine (2020 Nov 19)

 * …I don’t think I started [show business], and I know that I’m not going to finish it. I have my place in it, and I’m going to cherish that place. It’s a gift. I’m not going to squander it.
 * On what keeps him going as a performer and artist in “Let Smokey Robinson Tell You About Changing Music The living legend on his life, legacy, and Motown” in New York Magazine (2020 Nov 19)

With The Miracles

 * She's not a bad girl because She made me see, hmmm... How love could be. But she's a bad girl because (bad girl because) She wants to be free, hmmmm... (bad girl because) She wants to be free (bad girl)
 * ''Bad Girl, written by Smokey Robinson and Berry Gordy, Jr. (1959)

 * Ah, they tell me that the river's too deep And it's much too wide for you can't get across to the other side. But they don't know I've got to get there and hold her in my arms Just a one more time like I did before when she was mine all mine. Cause I can hear her saying (come to me baby) I'm going away. I'm going to stay. I'm gonna get to you, no matter what I have to do.
 * Way Over There, written by Smokey Robinson and Berry Gordy, Jr. (1960)

 * Just because you've become a young man now, There's still some things that you don't understand now. Before you ask some girl for her hand now, Keep your freedom for as long as you can now. My mama told me...'you better shop around' (Shop, shop around) a-whoa-yeah You better (uh-huh) shop around.
 * Shop Around, written by Smokey Robinson and Berry Gordy, Jr. (1960)

 * If ever I have a son in life, I'll call him in one day Sit him down upon my knee and here is what I'll say. You might lose your lover, people do sometime. Oh, but it won't make sense for you to sit around cryin'. Son, don't you know that when you fall in love, Sometimes, you're gonna have the blues. Well it may take years, but you're gonna shed some tears. 'Cause everybody's got to pay some dues, now, now. Everybody's got to pay some dues.
 * Everybody's Gotta Pay Some Dues, written by Smokey Robinson and Ronald White (1961)

 * What's so good about goodbye? All it does is make you cry. Well, if leaving causes grieving, And depart can break you heart, Tell me (what's so good about it) I could have done without it. What's so good about goodbye?
 * What's So Good About Goodbye (1961)

 * I will build you a castle with a tower so high It reaches the moon. I'll gather melodies from birdies that fly And compose you a tune. Give you lovin' warm as Mama's oven. And if that don't do, Then I'll try something new.
 * I'll Try Something New (1962)

 * I don't like you But I love you. See that I'm always Thinking of you. Oh, oh, oh, You treat me badly; I love you madly. You've really got a hold on me. You've really got a hold on me, baby.
 * You've Really Got a Hold on Me (1962)

 * You better beware, my friends all told me When they saw that I was falling for you. You better beware they told me that girl ain't gonna be true. She'll have you walking with your head in the air, Have you thinking that she really, really care. Then-a, then she'll let you down, she'll really let you down. She's a girl with no understanding. And when she's getting tired of you hanging around, She'll let you drop and say... have a happy landing (happy landing).
 * Happy Landing, written by Smokey Robinson and Ronald White (1962)

 * No don't you know my daddy told me, Told me right from the start About youth. He said no matter how old a man is, He's partly a boy in his heart. Yeah, and that's the truth.
 * (You Can't Let the Boy Overpower) The Man in You (1964)

 * Ooo la la la la I did you wrong; my heart went out to play. But in the game I lost you. What a price to pay, hey I'm crying. Ooo baby baby. Ooo baby baby.
 * Ooo Baby Baby, written by Smokey Robinson and Pete Moore (1965)

 * People say I'm the life of the party 'Cause I tell a joke or two. Although I might be laughing loud and hearty, Deep inside I'm blue. So take a good look at my face. You know my smile looks out of place. If you look closer, it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears.
 * The Tracks of My Tears, written by Smokey Robinson, Marvin Tarlin, and Pete Moore (1965)

 * My girl has gone, and said goodbye. Don't you cry, hold your head up high. Don't give up, give love one more try, 'Cause there's a right girl for every guy.
 * My Girl Has Gone, written by Smokey Robinson, Ronald White, Pete Moore, and Marvin Tarplin (1965)

 * Maybe you want to give me kisses sweet, But only for one night with no repeat. Maybe you'd go away and never call, And a taste of honey is worse than none at all (oh little girl) Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part. (I do believe that) That would only break my heart. Oh, but if you feel like loving me, If you got the notion, I second that emotion.
 * I Second That Emotion, written by Smokey Robinson and Al Cleveland (1967)

 * Now if there's a smile on my face, It's only there tryin' to fool the public, But when it comes down to foolin' you; Now honey, that's quite a different subject. But don't let my glad expression Give you the wrong impression. Really I'm sad. I'm sadder than sad. You're gone and I'm hurtin' so bad. Like a clown I pretend to be glad.
 * The Tears of a Clown, written by Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder, and Hank Cosby (1970)

Solo

 * Baby, let's cruise away from here. Don't be confused, the way is clear. And if you want it, you got it forever. This is not a one night stand, babe, yeah. So let the music take your mind, whoa. Just release and you will find You're gonna fly away, glad you're going my way. I love it when we're cruisin' together. The music is playing for love. Cruisin' is made for love. I love it when we're cruisin' together.
 * Cruisin' (1979)

 * I don't care what they think of me, And I don't care what they say. I don't care what they think if you're leavin'. I'm gonna beg you to stay. I don't care if they start to avoid me. I don't care what they do. I don't care about anything else But bein' with you, Bein' with you.
 * Being with You (1981)

Jodie Foster (born 19 November 1962) is an American actress, director, and producer. She has twice received the Academy Award for Best Actress.

Quotes

 * This is such a big deal, and my life is so simple. There are very few things — there's love, and work, and family. And I'd like to thank all my families, all the tribes that I come from and, most importantly, my mother Brandy who taught me that all my finger paintings were Picasso's and that I didn't have to be afraid. And, mostly, that cruelty might be very human, and it might be very cultural, but it's not acceptable.
 * Oscar Acceptance Speech, 1989 Academy Awards, Best Actress in a Leading Role, The Accused.

 * I'd like to dedicate this award to all the women before me that never had the chances that I've had, the survivors, the pioneers and the outcasts. My blood, my tradition. And I'd like to thank all the people in this industry who've respected my choices and have not been afraid of the power and dignity that that entitled me to.
 * Oscar Acceptance Speech, 1992 Academy Awards, Best Actress in a Leading Role, The Silence of the Lambs.

 * Normal is not something to aspire to, it is something to get away from.
 * As quoted in Diamonds, Pearls & Stones : Jewels of Wisdom for Young Women from Extraordinary Women of the World (2004) edited by Jennifer Read Hawthorne and Barbara Warren Holden, p. 6

 * I cannot believe in God when there is no scientific evidence for the existence of a supreme being and creator.
 * As quoted in Calgary Sun (10 July 2007)

Misattributed

 * Attacking the rich is not envy. It is self defense. The hoarding of wealth is the cause of poverty. The rich aren’t just indifferent to poverty; they create it and maintain it.

The Polar Express

The Polar Express is a 2004 CGI-animated film about a boy who learns the the true meaning of Christmas when he takes a train ride to the North Pole.
 * Directed by Robert Zemeckis. Written by Robert Zemeckis and William Broyles, based on the children's book of the same title by Chris Van Allsburg.

This Holiday Season... Believe (taglines)

Adult Hero Boy

 * [opening narration] On Christmas Eve, many years ago, I lay quietly in my bed. I did not rustle the sheets. I breathed slowly and silently. I was listening for a sound I was afraid I'd never hear: The ringing bells of Santa's sleigh.

 * [closing narration] At one time, most of my friends could hear the bell. But as years passed, it felt silent for all of them. Even Sarah found, one Christmas, that she could no longer hear its sweet sound. Though I've grown old, the bell still rings for me. As it does for all who truly believe!

Conductor

 * One thing about trains; it doesn't matter where you're going. What matters is deciding...to get on. [winks at Hero Boy]

Dialogue

 * Conductor: Well? You coming?
 * Hero Boy: [confused] Where?
 * Conductor: Why, to the North Pole, of course! This is the Polar Express!
 * Hero Boy: [unsure of how to react] The North Pole?
 * Conductor: I see. Hold this, please. Thank you. Is this you?
 * Hero Boy: Yeah?
 * Conductor: Well, it says here: No photo with a department-store Santa this year, no letter to Santa. And you made your sister put out the milk and cookies. Mm-mm.Sounds to me like this is your crucial year. If I were you... I would think about climbing onboard.

 * Know-It-All: Hey! Hey, you! Yeah, you! Do you know what kind of train this is?
 * Hero Boy: Huh?
 * Know-It-All: Train, do you know what kind of train this is? Well, do ya?
 * Hero Boy: Uh...
 * Hero Girl: Of course! It's a MAGIC train! We're going to the North Pole.
 * Know-It-All: Ah, I know it's a magic train. Actually, it's a Baldwin 284 S3-class Berkshire steam locomotive, built in 1931 at the Baldwin Locomotive Works. It weighs 456,100 pounds and has attractive 456,450 pounds, top speed is --
 * Hero Boy: [overlapping] Are we really going to the North Pole?
 * Hero Girl: Mm-hmm.
 * Know-It-All: Hey, look everybody!
 * Hero Girl: Isn't that wonderful?
 * Know-It-All: Herpolsheimer's! Herpolsheimer's!
 * [Herpolsheimer's passes by outside.]
 * Know-It-All: Wow, look at all those presents! I want ALL of 'em!
 * Hero Girl: It's so Christmassy and cozy and beautiful.
 * [The Christmas carol "Good King Wenceslas" plays inside the shop.]
 * Conductor: Tickets. Tickets, please. Tickets.

 * Conductor: [angrily storms in] WHO IN THE BLAZES APPLIED THAT EMERGENCY BRAKE?!
 * Know-It-All: [points to the Hero Boy] He did!
 * Conductor: [sternly] You. [angrily approaches the Hero Boy] In case you didn't know, that cord is for emergency purposes only! And in case you weren't aware, tonight [waves his hand out the window to signal the engineer to get moving] is Christmas Eve! [closes the window] And in case you hadn't noticed, this train is on a very tight schedule. Now, young man, Christmas may not be important to some people, but it is very important to the [points to a number of the kids, and then to his own face] rest of us!
 * Hero Boy: [appalled] But-But-But-But... [stammers]
 * Hero Girl: [points to the next car; voice breaking] He was just trying to stop the train so that kid could get on.
 * [The Conductor grunts and sees Billy sitting down alone in the next car]
 * Conductor: [calms down] Hmm. I see. Young man... is that what happened? [Hero Boy and Hero Girl nod; clicks his tongue, clearly feeling somewhat bad about getting so worked up] Well... let me remind you. We are on a very tight schedule, [checks watch; urgently yet sternly] a-and I've never been late before, and I am certainly not going to be late tonight! Now, everybody, take your seats, please! [everyone sits down; venomously] Thank you. [The train starts again, and he grabs his microphone.] Your attention, please. Are there any Polar Express passengers in need of refreshment?
 * Kids: [raising their hands] Me! Me! Me! Me!
 * Conductor: I thought so.

 * Conductor: [to Hero Girl; incredulous] You mean, you have lost your ticket?
 * Hero Boy: [comes forward; shamefully] She didn't lose her ticket. I did. I was trying to return it to you, [lowly] but the wind blew it out of my hand. [the conductor sighs in annoyance and disbelief. Hero Boy offers Hero Girl his ticket] You can have my ticket.
 * Conductor: Ah! [snatches it] These tickets... [hissingly] are not... transferable. [gives back the Hero Boy his ticket] Young lady, you will just have to come along with me. [they leave through the back of the car. He glares and shakes his head at Hero Boy in anger through the window]
 * Know-It-All: You know what's gonna happen now, don't ya? He’s gonna throw her off the train. [the others gasp and murmur in horror at the very thought] Yeah, he's gonna probably throw her right off the rear platform. It’s standard procedure. [Hero Boy looks through the window and sees the conductor escorting Hero Girl to the very back of the train] That way, she won’t get sucked down under the wheels. They may slow the train down a little bit, but they’re never gonna stop it.
 * Hero Boy: "Stop it"? [realizes] That’s it! I have to stop the train again.
 * Know-It-All: [worriedly] No, please, don’t do that again!
 * [As the other kids protest, Hero Boy prepares to pull the brake, but notices Hero Girl's ticket in the vent and pulls it out before it can get sucked in.]
 * Hero Boy: Where'd they go? What happened to them?! [Billy doesn't respond.] Please! She's in big trouble! You have to help me! [He then sees the shadows of both the conductor and Hero Girl heading towards the engine after Billy looks up to show him where. He then rushes towards the ladder of the Observation Car to chase after the two. The space is narrow and he struggles to climb up, but he reaches the top and calls out to Hero Girl.] Hey! Hey! I found your ticket! Wait! Hey! Wait! I have your ticket!
 * [He slowly struggles to move forward because of the snow and the winds. He then finds a campfire ahead and the Hobo behind it. He is humming the Christmas carol "Good King Wenceslas".]

 * Hobo: [humming] When the snow lay 'round 'bout, deep and crisp... [notices Hero Boy] Is there somethin' I can do for you?
 * Hero Boy: I'm looking for a girl.
 * Hobo: A gi-? [bursts out laughing hysterically] Ain't we all?!
 * Hero Boy: I have her ticket.
 * Hobo: [takes the ticket] Well, lookie. Lookie here. Oh, this is a... this is an official, authentic, genuine ticket to ride. Oh, you'd better keep this in a safe place, young man. [gives the ticket back to Hero Boy] If I was you, I keep all my valuables right here. [shows his shoe] Right here in the old size 13. Experience shows this is the safest place. [Hero Boy places Hero Girl's ticket inside his shoe, under his foot where it will be safe.] Not that I have much use for those. Tickets. Nah. I ride for free. Oh, yeah, yeah. I hop aboard this rattler anytime I feels like it. I own this train. Oh, yeah. It's like I'm the king of this train. Yeah. The king of the Pol Ex. In fact, I am the king of the North Pole! [voice echoes and laughs] Oh, where's my manners? Sit, sit. Sit. Sit. Take a... take a load off. Hey, would you like some Joe? Nice hot refreshment. Perfect for a cold winter's night. [He pours some Joe in a cup and gives it to Hero Boy, who looks at it and takes a sip, but then coughs and chokes.] There, bless you.

 * Hobo: What exactly is... is your persuasion... on the big man? Since you brought him up.
 * Hero Boy: Well, I... I want to believe, but-
 * Hobo: But... you don’t wanna be bamboozled. You don't wanna be led down the primrose path! You don’t wanna be conned or duped, have the wool pulled over your eyes. Hoodwinked. You don't wanna be taken for a ride, railroaded! [extinguishes his campfire] Seeing is believing. Am I right?
 * Hero Boy: But what about this train?
 * Hobo: What about it?

 * Hobo: That skirt you're chasin' must've moved on ahead. We gotta hightail it to the hog, pronto!
 * Hero Boy: [confused] To the hog?
 * Hobo: The engine. The engine, you tenderfoot. We gotta make the engine before we hit Flat-Top Tunnel.
 * Hero Boy: H-How come?
 * Hobo: [exasperated] So many questions... There is but one inch of clearance between the roof of this rattler and the roof of Flat-Top Tunnel. Savvy? It's just a run up to the hump, kid! This'll be interesting! [slides backward and uses his muck stick on the handle, but Hero Boy slips off him] Get back on, kid! Hurry! Grab my muck stick! [Hero Boy does so and he swings him back on the roof and the sled down to the engine] There's only one trick to this, kid! When I say "jump"... ''[Flat-Top Tunnel's eyes and teeth emit an orange smoke] ...you JUMP!!!
 * ''[Hero Boy jumps and slides down the tender filled with coal and finds Hero Girl in charge of the train]
 * Hero Boy: [to Hero Girl; dumbfounded] You?! I thought you got thrown off and...you’re drivin' the train!?
 * Hero Girl: They put me in charge. The engineer had to check the light.
 * Smokey: [holding a light bulb for Steamer to install on the train] Here's the light! Careful. All right, now!
 * Steamer: I got it!
 * [He catches the light bulb while holding onto Smokey's long beard, but while doing so, he pulls his twin's beard, causing him to yell in pain. Meanwhile, back inside the engine...]
 * Hero Boy: How do you know how?
 * Hero Girl: It's easy. Come here, I'll show you. This big lever here, that's the throttle. This little one here, that's the brake. And those are the pressure gauges. And that rope is the whistle.
 * Hero Boy: The whistle?
 * Hero Girl: Mmm-hmm. You wanna try it?
 * Hero Boy: [does so and pulls the rope, blowing the whistle] I've wanted to do that my whole life!
 * [He blows the whistle again. Back to Smokey and Steamer, the former screams in pain as his beard is being pulled by the latter trying to install the light bulb in the light socket of the engine.]
 * Steamer: Hold still! Hold still! Don't move!
 * [He finally installs the light bulb in the socket, turning the train's light back on. Smokey then sees something up ahead.]
 * Smokey: [points forward] Look!
 * Steamer: [looks to where his twin is pointing, and becomes alarmed] What?! [He lets go of Smokey's beard and he gets his head stuck in the train's bell. He then takes a further look up ahead, and yells out to Hero Girl.] Stop the train! Stop the train! Stop the train! STOP...THE...TRAIN!
 * Hero Boy: What?!
 * Hero Girl: They want us to stop the train.

 * [After Hero Boy stops the train seconds before impact with thousands of caribou, the fireman and engineer, the twins on the front of the engine on the train are shocked to see what they find]
 * Steamer: Caribou?! [the caribou sniffs in his face] Ugh.
 * Conductor: [sick and tired of all the delays tonight] There can be no Christmas without the Polar Express arriving on time! Am I the only one who understands that?! [enters the engine cab; notices Hero Boy] YOU?! [Hero Boy stands up] I should've known. [angry] Young man, are you bound and determined that this train never reaches the North Pole?!
 * Hero Girl: [points outside] But look!
 * [The conductor looks outside in utter disbelief]
 * Conductor: [screams angrily] CARIBOU CROSSING?!?
 * [Back outside, Steamer looks at all of the caribou.]
 * Steamer: I make that herd to be at least a hundred thousand, maybe even a million. It's gonna be hours before they clear this track!
 * Smokey: A tough nut to crack!
 * Conductor: We are in some serious jelly.
 * Steamer: And a jam.
 * Smokey: Tight spot!
 * Steamer: Up a creek.
 * Smokey: Up a tree!
 * Steamer: Lost in the grass.
 * Smokey: I'll tell you what's grass! Our--
 * [Hero Boy tugs on his beard, causing him to groan loudly akin to a caribou's call; the lead caribou responds and snorts. Then the conductor pulls Smokey's beard, causing him to groan louder and longer, followed by another response. One more hard tug causes Smokey to groan his loudest, and the lead caribou responds and backs away; all the caribou start to move off the track.]
 * Conductor: Problem solved! All ahead, slow!

 * Hero Boy: We're going pretty fast.
 * Conductor: Tell the engineer to slow down.
 * Hero Girl: Slow it down! Watch the speed!
 * [The cotter pin comes apart]
 * Steamer: Ah! Jumping jeepers, the cotter pin sheared off!
 * Smokey: What?
 * Steamer: The pin!
 * Smokey: Where?
 * Steamer: There!
 * [The cotter pin falls through a vent]
 * Smokey and Steamer: Oh, no!
 * Hero Girl: They can't hear me!
 * Conductor: They can't? [notices they're approaching Glacier Gulch; gasps] I don't like the look of this. Quick, under the safety bar!
 * Hero Boy: [scared to death] Is every... Is everything alright?! [the conductor pulls his robe belt off and ties it around them to the safety bar] What should we do?!
 * Conductor: Well, considering the fact that we have lost communication with the engineer, we are standing totally exposed on the front of the locomotive, the train appears to be accelerating uncontrollably, and we are rapidly approaching Glacier Gulch, [Hero Girl whimpers] which just happens to be the steepest downhill grade in the world, I suggest we all hold on...''TIGHTLY!!!!!!!!!
 * [The train speeds down with the Conductor, Hero Boy, and Hero Girl standing on the front of the engine while they scream]
 * Smokey and Steamer: Whoa! The pin!
 * [They try to grab it, but goes down to the engineer's stomach leaving him]
 * Conductor: Jiminy Christmas, the ice has frozen over the tracks!
 * [The train hits the Ice Lake and slips and slides on the ice. Smokey uses a shovel to force the cotter pin out of Steamer but it flies out of the cab and onto the ice, fracturing it. The train hits an iceberg, causing it to lean sideways and Hero Girl almost falls off, but is grabbed by the conductor and Hero Boy]

 * Conductor: Alright. Alright, ladies and gentlemen, two columns, if you please. Shorter in the front, taller in the rear. Even-numbered birthdays on the right, odd-numbered on the left. No pushing. No pushing. But let's not dilly-dally, it's 5 minutes to midnight.
 * Know-It-All: Hey, what gives? It was 5 minutes until midnight 4 minutes ago.
 * Conductor: Exactly!

 * Hero Boy: We're gonna be okay. [they get diverted onto another track downhill] MAYBE NOT!!! The emergency brake! The emergency brake! [hurries to the front of the car] There's no brake! I CAN'T FIND THE BRAKE!!!!
 * Hobo: [materializes next to the manual brake] Take a BREAK, kid! How 'bout a nice, hot cup o' Joe?!

 * Hero Boy: Hey, look...a present! It's going to my town! ...To someone named Billy.
 * Lonely Boy/Billy: MY name is Billy!!
 * Hero Girl: It says it's going to 11344 Edbrooke Avenue.
 * Lonely Boy/Billy: That's MY address!!

 * [Something grabs Billy's foot]
 * Billy: AAAH! Something's got me! It's got my leg!
 * [The Hero Boy and Hero Girl grab Billy's arm]
 * Hero Girl: I can't hold him!
 * Hero Boy: Give me your other hand. Give me your other hand!
 * Billy: I can't!
 * Hero Boy: On 3! 1, 2, 3! [they yank Billy up, but he is still stuck] Look! [sees a hand grabbing Billy's foot]
 * Billy: It's still got me!
 * Hero Boy: On 3 again! 1, 2, 3! [they yank Billy up again, and the person grabbing onto Billy is revealed to be the Know-It-All] [sternly] YOU!
 * Know-It-All: [feigning shock] You?!
 * Hero Girl: What are you doing here?!
 * Know-It-All: Same as you, I'm checking out my Christmas presents. I wanna make sure I'm getting everything on my list. All I found was one present, and all it had was a bunch of stupid underwear!

 * Hero Girl: It's still five to! I think we're gonna make it!
 * Know-It-All: Of course. It's been five to for the last hour. We got plenty of time. We got nothing but time. We got time to kill.
 * Hero Boy: You know what? I don't think we're gonna make it.
 * [The zeppelin is about to crash into the tree.]
 * Conductor: I may be just an old railroader, and know nothing about lighter-than-air craft, but from my layman's perspective, you need more altitude!!
 * Elves in crowd: MORE ALTITUDE!!!!!
 * Elf over speaker: Altitude, please. A bit more altitude, please.
 * Zeppelin elves: [jumping off] Geronimo!!!
 * [The decreased weight causes the zeppelin to rise up over the tree safely; the elves parachute to the ground.]
 * Conductor: The Flying Elves. They are specialists. Do not try that at home, kids. Do not try that at home.

 * [All the children gather with the Conductor and elves in the North Pole city square. The elves bring the reindeer out]
 * Elves: [singing] It's the spirit of the season! You can feel it in the air! You can hear it if you listen! Everywhere, so much care, like a prayer, whatever it is, you need to share it! [the reindeer are lined up] It's the spirit of the season! [horns are played. The elves bring the harnesses out] It's the spirit of the season! You can feel it in the air! [Everyone cheers. The elves place the harnesses on the reindeer]''
 * Hero Girl: Aren't those bells the most beautiful sound?
 * [The Hero Boy is unable to hear the bells. The entire square grows silent]
 * Elves: [singing] Ohhh, you better watch out, you better not cry, you better not pout, I'm telling you why! Santa Claus is coming... TO TOWN!!!
 * [Santa finally emerges from the doors. A massive cheer erupts from the children and elves as Frank Sinatra's 1948 recording of "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" begins blaring over the city's P.A. sound system]
 * Hero Girl: [elated] He's here! He's here!
 * Hero Boy: [confused] Where!?
 * Billy: [ecstatic] I see him! He's over there!
 * Hero Boy: I can't see him! [the Conductor takes off his hat in respect. He's unable to see Santa, due to the elves stacking themselves on top of each other, blocking his view] I can't see him! I CAN'T SEE HIM!!!
 * [Suddenly, a loud clatter erupts from the reindeer, who prance about excitedly. The camera zooms in on the Hero Boy's eyes. The sequence begins to slow down. A bell breaks loose from the harness and is thrown into the air. The bell falls back down, bounces on the ground and rolls right to the Hero Boy]

 * Santa: I see you've made some new friends.
 * Billy: Yes, sir. I sure have.
 * Santa: That's a lucky lad. There’s no greater gift than friendship.

 * Hero Girl: It's everything I dreamed it would be.
 * Billy: Could all this be nothing but a dream?
 * Hero Boy: [proudly] No.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Mister Z. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Mister Z~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:31, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Guinefort~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:23, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Gertjie. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Gertjie~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Cv nagendra. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Cv nagendra~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:20, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
