Quotes
-
Mr. Connors : Given enough time a pixie will get you so confused that you'll be looking for happiness in all the wrong places. And once you get pixie-led, unless someone else helps, why you could be stuck there forever!
Alex : So, how does it help to put our coats on backwards?
Mr. Connors : Well, don't you see? It confuses them!
[laughing]
Mr. Connors : They can't tell whether we're coming or going!

Mr. Connors : Now, Tommy, you can't judge a book by its cover. Especially an old one... hee hee hee!...
Tommy : Huh?
Mr. Connors : Well, what I mean is, it's not what a person looks like that makes them what they are. It's the intent of their hearts and the good they're willing to do for others that matters.
Alex : He's trying to tell you hes not a leprechaun, Tommy.

Mr. Connors : C'mere, c'mere! Now listen, can you hear them?
Tommy : Who?
Mr. Connors : Why, the fairies, of course!
Alex : I don't hear anything.
Mr. Connors : Nothing?
Alex : Just the birds.
Mr. Connors : Aye, the birds, and the wind through the trees, and the animals rushing through the field. During the day, the fairies play along with the sounds of the meadow, and at night to the crickets and the owls. If you listen very carefully, you can hear them.

Tommy : You are one, and don't think you can get away from me, because you can't!
Mr. Connors : Well, I'm sure I couldn't even if I were a leprechaun.
Alex : Oh, I told you he isn't one!
Mr. Connors : Ahh! I didn't say that!
Tommy : So you are one?
Mr. Connors : ...And I didn't say that!
