Carol: [from trailer] I didn't want to wake you up, but I really wanted to show you something.
Carol: [from trailer] It's going to be a place where only the things you want to happen, would happen. Max: [from trailer] We could totally build a place like that!
[from trailer] Max: [looking over at giant dog in desert] What's that? Carol: Oh, it's that dog. Don't feed it, he'll just follow you around.
[from trailer] Max: I'm Max. I'm an explorer. I traveled by sea. I used to travel by air. KW: Obviously you have no home or family. Max: Well, I had one of those but... KW: But you ate 'em all? Max: No! I have no plans to eat anyone.
[from trailer] KW: I don't want you to go, I'll eat you up, I love you so.
Carol: If I was stranded on a desert island and could only take one thing, it'd be Douglas. We can share him if you want.
Judith: Happiness isn't always the best way to be happy.
Max: Did you make this? Carol: Yeah, yeah. Max: It's very good. Carol: We were gonna make a whole world like this. Now, everyone used to come here, but you know... you know what it feels like when all your teeth are falling out really slowly and you don't realize and then you notice that, well, they're really far apart. And then one day... you don't have any teeth anymore. Max: Yeah. Carol: Well it was like that.
Carol: Will you keep out all the sadness?
Max: I have no plans to eat anyone
Douglas: Will you keep out all the sadness? Max: I have a sadness-shield that keeps out all the sadness, and it's big enough for all of us.
Carol: This part of your kingdoms not so good. Max: Why? Carol: Well look this used to be all rock, and now its sand, and then one day its going to be dust, and then the whole island will be dust, and then... well I don't even know what comes after dust.
Carol: I don't talk to owls. Owls are stupid.
[first lines] Max: Hey Claire. Wanna see something great? Claire: [on the phone] Who else was there? Max: It's an igloo! I made it. Claire: Yeah, my brother. Max: Hey Claire! Claire: I can't. We're supposed to go to my dad's that weekend. Max: The snowplows left some snow across the street and I dug a hole into it. Claire: Go and play with your friends.
