Wonka: But, Charlie, Don't Forget What Happened

I Cannot For The Life Of Me Understand Why Small Children Take So Long To Grow Up. I Think They Do It Deliberately, Just To Annoy Me.

I Am Totally Convinced That Most Grown-ups Have Completely Forgotten What Is It Like To Be A Child Between The Ages Of Five And Then... I Can Remember Exactly What It Was Like. I Am Certain I Can.

Pain Was Something We Were Expected To Endure. But I Doubt Very Much If You Would Be Entirely Happy Today If A Doctor Threw A Towel In Your Face And Jumped On You With A Knife.

And Above All, Watch With Glittering Eyes The Whole World Around You Because The Greatest Secrets Are Always Hidden In The Most Unlikely Places. Those Who Don't Believe In Magic Will Never Find It.
