James and the Giant Peach quotes

  • James: When I had a problem, my mom and dad would tell me to look at it another way.

    Earthworm: How? First, I was bird bait, then I was shark bait.

    James: I suppose, but you could say you gave us wings to fly, and defeated a giant shark single-handedly.

    Earthworm: No-handedly.

    James: You're a hero.

    Earthworm: I am? I'm Wonder Worm!

    James: You are!

  • [the bugs and James have landed in the ocean]

    Spider: We are in, what you call, the Big Puddle.
