1. 'Nothing wrong with me. Not a frog. Nothing frog with me. I'm a repectabiggle.'
2. 'The ruined city? That is a strange place to be seeking. What will you do if you find it?'
3. 'Don't kill me, I'm tough. You won't like me.' Who quoted this information.
4. 'Ah, the poor child! My lord, we do wrong to keep our guests standing. Quick, some of you! Take them away. Give them food and wine and baths. Comfort the little girl. Give her lollipops, give her dolls, give her physics, give her all you can think of--possets and comfits and caraways and lullabies and toys. Don't cry, little girl, or you won't be good for anything when the feast comes.'
5. 'Why, Son of Adam, don't you understand? A Centaur has a man-stomach and a horse-stomach. And of course both want breakfast. So first of all he has porridge and pavenders and kidneys and bacon and omelette and cold ham and toast and marmalade and coffee and beer. And after that he attends to the horse part of himself by grazing for an hour or so and finishing up with a hot mash, some oats, and a bag of sugar. That's why it's such a serious thing to ask a Centaur to stay for the weekend. A very serious thing indeed.'
6. 'Now then, Pole. Everyone knows you're there. Down you come.'

11. 'Oh Lor! Is this a time for stopping to admire the view? For goodness' sake let's get on.'
12. 'I have heard of those little scratches in the crust that you Topdwellers call mines. But that's where you get dead gold, dead silver, dead gems. Down in Bism, we have them alive and growing. There I'll pick you bunches of rubies that you can eat and squeeze you a cupful of diamond juice. You won't care much about fingering the cold, dead treasures of your shallow mines after you have tasted the live ones in Bism.'
