  • The Wiz : Dorothy...

    [pause] 

    The Wiz : Can you do something for me?

    Dorothy : They've had what they've been searching for in them all along. I don't what's in you. You'll have to find that out for yourself. But I do know one thing: you'll never find it in the safety of this room. I tried that all my life. It doesn't work. There's a whole world out there. And you'll have to begin by letting people see who you really are.
