Quotes: « Guy: Once upon a time, there was a beautiful tiger. She lived in a cave with the rest of her family. Her father and mother told her: "You may go anywhere you want, but never go near the cliff, for you could fall." » « Grug: And die. Good story. » [the others start to leave but Guy goes on and they sit back down] « Guy: But when no one was looking, she'd go near the cliff, for the closer she came to the edge, the more could she hear, the more could she see, the more she could feel. Finally, she stood at the very edge. She saw a light. She leaned out to touch it… and she slipped. » « Grug: And she fell. » « Guy: And she *flew.* » [the others gasp] « Thunk: Where did she fly? » « Guy: Tomorrow. » « Eep: Tomorrow? » « Guy: A place with more suns in the sky than you can count. » « Thunk: It would be so bright! » « Guy: A place not like today, or yesterday. A place where things are better. » « Grug: Tomorrow isn't a place. It's… it's… Ugh! You can't see it! » « Guy: Oh, yes, yes it is. I've seen it. That's where I'm going. » « Grug: What is this stuff that saves you from my punches? » « Guy: [despairingly] … Tar. » « Grug: No! » « Guy: Please… » « Grug: I have to get back to them. » « Guy: Stop struggling! » « Grug: No! » « Guy: Grug, STOP! No one gets out of this. Believe me… I know. » « Grug: Your… » « Guy: Family. Yeah. » « Grug: …Sorry. » « Guy: I was little when it happened. Last thing my parents told me was: "Don't hide. Live. Follow the sun. You'll make it to Tomorrow." » « Grug: You follow the light. My daughter is a lot like you. » « Guy: No. She's like you. She loves you, but always forgets to say it. Just like you forget to tell her. » « Eep: Dad, I'm scared. » « Grug: *Never* be afraid. »
