• Coachman : Where do you think you're going?

  Pinocchio : I'm getting out of here!

  Coachman : Oh no you're not, little wooden-head. I'm selling you to a circus!

• Pinocchio : [singing]  Here I am, out of breath again, wondering which way to turn. Here I am, scared to death again, wondering when will I learn. When will I learn? If I could start all over, would I be as blindly trusting? Would I remain naive, and ready to believe? If I could start all over, could I be sure which road to travel? Would I be thinking twice, or taking bad advice? Would I for once be loving, and helpful, and good? And would my head be thoughtful, and not made of wood? If there were second chances, would I believe the one who loves me, or would I turn away, not hearing what he'd say? Would I be smart if I could start again? Would I make one heart lighter? Or make a moment brighter? Would I be smart if I could start again?
