- Library Kid: Ever since I can remember, I loved books. I read "Pat the Bunny" before I could walk. By the time I was four, I had completed the collected works of Seuss, and was deep into Babar in the original French.
- Gretchen Grundler: [offering the library kid a candy bar] you eat candy? Candy good.
- Library Kid: Thank you.
- Gretchen Grundler: [gasps] You... speak English?
- Library Kid: Certainly, as well as French, German, Latin, Greek, and a little Basque, but I'm not fluent.
- Mikey Blumberg: Wow!
