This is a small exchange in the movie Peter Pan.
Wendy : Once upon a time there was a boy named Peter Pan, who decided not to grow up.
Hook : Skip the prologue
Wendy : So he flew away to Neverland where the pirates are.
Hook : What fun he must have had.
Wendy : Yes but he was rather lonely.
Hook : Lonely? He needed a Wendy. Why a Wendy?
Wendy : He liked my stories.
Hook : What stories?
Wendy : Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty.
Hook : Love stories?
Wendy : Adventures! In which good triumphs over evil!
Hook : They all end in a kiss. He does feel! He feels about you. She told him stories. He taught her to fly. How?
Wendy : You just think happy thoughts. They lift you into the air.
Hook : Alas, I have no happy thoughts.
Wendy : That brings you down!
Hook : How else?
Michael: Fairy dust! You need fairy dust!
Hook : What of Pan? Would unhappy thoughts bring him down?
Wendy : He has no unhappy thoughts.

In Good Company
Intermediate
Eugene : Thanks for the Laker tickets.
Dan : You bet.
Eugene : Seats were terrific. But I'm still not going to advertise in the magazine. My son-in-law tells me that people don't read much any more. Too much effort moving eyes back and forth. So we're gonna put most of our budget into television, radio, internet.
Dan : Okay.
Eugene : Okay? What does that mean?
Dan : I'm not gonna try to sell you.
Eugene : Why the hell not? You're a salesman.
Dan : Yeah. Just not a very good one, that's all.
Eugene : I'll say.
Dan : But I am going to ask you one favor.
Eugene : Oh, yeah?
Dan : I'm gonna leave you an issue of the magazine and I'm personnally gonna send you a new one every week. Now, I'll call you in a few weeks, and if you want to we'll talk. There's a great article in there comparing today's quarterbacks with Johnny United.
Eugene : United would kick their butts. So this is your sales pitch?
Dan : I've been with the magazine for 20 years. I believe in it.
