Quotes[]

  • Franklin: "What's the matter Snail?"
  • Snail: "Well... I've always really wanted to... oh, never mind. It's just a silly thing I think about sometimes."
  • Franklin: "Come on Snail, you can tell me. I won't think it's silly."
  • Snail: "Okay. Someday, I want to fly."
  • Franklin: "That's not silly. If you really want to fly, I'm sure someday you will."
  • Snail: "Oh, thank you Franklin!"
  • Franklin: "What for?"
  • Snail: "For believing in my dream. Anyone else would say it's silly that a little snail like me wants to fly."
  • Franklin: "My dad says you should always follow your dream, because that's how you make them come true."
  • Beaver: "What?! Everyone knows snails can't fly!"
  • Franklin: "Good afternoon passengers, this is your captain speaking. Flight Number 1234 is ready for take-off. Fasten your seatbelts and enjoy the ride, and thank you for flying Franklin Airlines!"
  • Dad: "Now Franklin, some dreams might take longer than come true than others, but if we give up on them, they'll never come true at all."
  • Franklin: "You're a dad. You're supposed to say stuff like that."
  • Dad: "That's right. And as a dad, it's my job to keep your dreams alive."
  • Franklin: "Can you keep Snail's dream alive too?"
  • Dad: "Hmmmm... Actually, I think I know someone who might be able to make his dream come true."
  • Franklin: "Really!!?? That'll be great, Dad!!"
  • Snail: "A snail!!! She's a SNAIL!!!"
  • Mr. Turtle: "Franklin, Snail, I'd like you to meet an old of mine, Miss Periwinkle. She is a airplane pilot."
  • Miss Periwinkle: "That's right. I dreamed of flying ever since I was your age. Of course, all my school chums thought I was positively crackers!"
  • Miss Periwinkle: "Oh no. They told me girls can't be pilots. Now, isn't that the silliest thing you ever heard?"
  • Miss Periwinkle: "Care to go for a little spin around the clouds?"
  • Snail: "Yes please! (from up above) Look everybody! I'm flying!!! Yahooo!!!"
  • Beaver: "Well what do you know! Snails CAN fly."
  • Franklin: "Do you think maybe one day, a Turtle will land on Mars?"
  • Mr. Turtle: "Well son, it's a wonderful dream, isn't it?"
