Quotes 

  • Dorothy : Goodness! How did you ever get like this?

    The Tin Man : Well, about a year ago, I was chopping that tree, when suddenly it began to rain. And right in the middle of the chop, I rusted solid. And I've been that way ever since.

    Dorothy : Well, you're perfect now.

    The Tin Man : [to Scarecrow]  My neck. My neck.

    [Scarecrow oils Tin Man's neck] 

    The Tin Man : [to Dorothy]  Perfect? Bang on my chest if you think I'm perfect. Go ahead, bang on it!

    [Dorothy bangs on his chest which causes an echo] 

    The Scarecrow : BEAUTIFUL! What an echo!

    The Tin Man : [Sadly]  It's empty. The tinsmith forgot to give me a heart.

    Dorothy , The Scarecrow : No heart?

    The Tin Man : No heart. All hollow.

    [Taps his chest and falls backwards] 

    The Tin Man : [singing]  When a man's an empty kettle, He should be on his mettle, And yet I'm torn apart. Just because I'm presuming That I could be kind of human. If I only had a heart.

Picture me, A balcony Above a voice sings low.

    Juliet : Wherefore art thou, Romeo?

    The Tin Man : [singing]  I hear a beat. How sweet! Just to register emotion Jealousy, devotion. And really feel the part. I could stay young and chipper. And I lock it with a zipper. If I only had a heart.
