- Orion: In real life, when you're dead, you're dead. The realization that there's no way around it terrifies me. I try to imagine what death is like. I've concluded it's like nothing. This is black and silent, not nothing. Blackness and silence is something. Nothing is perhaps the one unimaginable thing.
- Hypatia: We always want to know the ending because it makes things less scary in the middle parts. But maybe being scared is just a part of life. I think you just need to feel the fear.
- Orion: And do it anyway.
- Dark: You are familiar with the concept of fun, are you not?
- Orion: Fun is just a word people made up to make danger sound more appealing!
- Insomnia: Jumping to worst case scenario is my actual job.
- Orion's Mom: Sometimes, you just have to feel the fear and do it anyway.
- Orion: I love my parents, and I appreciate what they're trying to do. But that is, without question, the worst advice I've ever heard,
- Dark: I thought we'd start with a little tour of what I'd like to call, the virtues of night. See? Without me, you wouldn't be able to see all the wrinkles on the actors faces.
- Orion: So far, you're a terrible salesman.
- Sweet Dreams: Creating a dream is a very delicate art. That means anything you say, or even think, could influence the dream. Got it?
- Orion: Anything I think?
- Sweet Dreams: You thought of something scary, didn't you?
- Unexplained Noises: Helping random children to boost your fragile self esteem is not in our job description!
- Dark: Woah. That is insightfully harsh.
- Orion: On second thought, maybe it's not such a good idea to put the fate of the world in the hands of an eleven year-old kid with sever performance anxiety.
- Hypatia: Now that it's gone, I miss the night, Now that the only thing left is light, And something else, neither night nor day, Maybe everyone cheers 'hooray', But I miss the night, because it's like me, And when it is dark, is when I best see, Maybe the world, has become too bright, And the one that is quiet never gets heard, And the ones that are awkward, dismissed as mere nerds, I once thought quiet the absence of sound, But learned it's the space where small sounds can be found, I once thought dark was the absence of light, But it is the place where star light is bright, The quiet, the dark, the dreams once embraced me, They let me feel safe in a world that erased me, Now that it's gone, I miss the night, Now that the only thing left is light
- Orion: [flying with Dark] I'm allergic to dying! Way too high!
- Dark: [groans] You're allergic to LIVING.
- Quiet: [whispering] Orion? If you don't wake up, you're going to miss your field trip.
