  • "That one is from Katherine."
  • "Katherine has written a story about our adventures since we left you. She misses you all and wishes she could tell you in person, but until then, her book will tell you the story. Now, before we start, we must begin with the first spell I ever taught you. Do you remember?"
  • "I've been working on something that might help us."
  • "Good thing they'd learned to levitate solid rock back then or they would never have finished the thing. Odd, though, that it was once topped with egg-shaped stone."
  • "Most dinosaurs are really very friendly creatures. But those rex fellows, Tyrannosaurus? A bit snappy when hungry."
  • "I'm going to travel back to the moment when Pitch attack the Moon, I'll be able to see exactly where the relics fell. Finding them is our best hope of defeating him."
  • "I was back in time, just before the last battle of the Golden Age, I could see Pitch's ship hiding on the dark side of Earth, lying in wait to attack the Moon. Suddenly, it occurred to me to warn the Man in the Moon and his family. I hoped to stop this whole history before it could even begin. But I sensed someone standing next to me. I turned to look, and there, to my utter amazement, floating beside me, was a most curious fellow. He was at least seven feet, wearing robes of a most peculiar design, and holding a long staff with an egg-shaped jewel at one end."
  • "He did indeed. One word, which he repeated: 'Naughty. Naughty.'"
  • "Not quite. He touched my shoulder with the jeweled egg, and I suddenly found myself back here!"

  • "I find no evidence of a vanishing spell. No magic was used. The books still exist- somewhere."
  • "He's taken them to the Earth's core! That's where Pitch obtained the lead. His saber and cloak are made with it!"
  • "Lead found at the core of Earth has been there since the planet was first formed. It has never known light - of any kind - so no light can penetrate it. It absorbs it. That's how Pitch was able to attack Nightlight and the moonbeam. He stole some of their light."
  • "Pitch needs all the spells and enchantments in my volumes to become more powerful. To become, perhaps, invincible. But, somehow, the library disappeared before he could get it. And that's the part I can't make heads or tails of."

  • "That is a journey no man has ever made."
  • "Why, it's a map of Earth! We must go to Easter Island!"
  • "Yes! The legend says that's where the Pooka lives."
  • "How do you plan to do that?"
  • "Let's take things one at a time, shall we? Perhaps Katherine is right, and the animals can tell us what became of my books. But an enslavement spell this powerful can't be reversed quickly. It needs to be done carefully and well. It's the work of many, many hours."
  • "Some of these spells are trickier than others. If I wait too long, I fear this spell could be irreversible. There are no two ways about it. I'll have to stay behind in Santoff Claussen, and you'll have to continue on to Easter Island."

  • "The student reinterprets the teacher's lesson. Well done."
  • "Even I once was caught by Pitch in such a spell."
  • "What happened to the books in my library? Where are they?"
  • "Yes." "Nicholas St. North and Katherine are on their way to the Earth's core even now, I will do my utmost to find the books Pitch covets, and when I do, they'll make the exchange. But I must know where the books are."
  • "And yet all the books disappeared before Pitch could get to them."
  • "Teeth marks! Those are teeth marks!"
  • "Teeth marks! But whose teeth marks?"
  • "Who would eat my books? Nightlight had some hand in it, I'm sure, but what...,"
  • "MR. QWERTY! MR. QWERTY!! MR. QWERTY!!! Mr. Qwerty has eaten my books! To keep them out of Pitch's hands!"
  • "Was Nightlight holding anything when Pitch took him away? (Moonbeam: Yes) Was it white? Rather oblong? About the size of my hand? (Moonbeam pulsed twice) That's it! Mr. Qwerty ate the books! Then he wrapped himself in a cocoon! Nightlight's flash of light protected the children and gave Mr. Qwerty time to eat the books. The little fellow was always hungry for knowledge, but this is epic! Nightlight took Mr. Qwerty! He has him still. The library is in Mr. Qwerty's stomach. Right under Pitch's nose..."
  • "I believe. I believe. I believe."
  • "How bad is it, lad?"

  • "Outstanding. We'll take the whole village- everyone is welcome! It'll be a grand adventure. We'll plan a celebration tomorrow evening to see us off!"
  • "But where did the first egg come from, if the chicken did not exist?"
  • "Have you ever met the Lunar Lamas?"
  • "Indeed. Um... yes... well... all right... That must be how they knew to point us in your direction when we sought the relic. They would tell us only-"
  • "I like you too, Bunnymund."
  • "Greetings, my good friends. We've come to speak to the Man in the Moon... and to report what we think is historic news."
  • "Tsar Lunar, we've scoured the Earth for Pitch and found no trace of him. Can you tell us, has he truly been defeated?"
  • "I've read something about her once, I believe-"
  • "Of course! I should have remembered that myself, Mr. Qwerty, please enlighten us."
  • "Perhaps if you chant the ancient Atlantan phrase 'Sleep-o deep-o slumberly doo-'"
  • "Is that creature the Monkey King?"
  • "The King of the Monkeys claims he is much too clever to fall for our tricks."

  • "We'll come with you. Together our power is mighty."
  • "But whose tooth is it?"

  • "Pitch will be watching the skies. If we come from both air and underground, we may surprise him."
  • "He told me that once he grew an extra head."
  • "Nicholas, we have what we need. Brave hearts. And sharp minds. And as you might recall, we always abandon our plans and end up doing things we never imagined."
  • "Our relics won't have the same effect on creatures of flesh and blood."
  • "Enough! Enough! We are beaten, Pitch!"
  • "What is it you seek, Pitch?"
  • "If only they could help."
  • "She has another name, apparently. By some she's known as Mother Nature."
  • "We were no better than Pitch. Perhaps worse."

The Sandman and the War of Dreams[]

  • "Or he's playing some sort of game."
  • "This dream must be made real! For Katherine's sake and for the good of all."
  • "Guardians! Place your relics together, my friends. The mission will require all of our powers!"
