“I do not find it easy to talk to people I don't know.”

“How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?I don't know, but some people without brains do an awful lot of talking.”

“I don't understand a thing about this world: about people, and why they do the things they do. The more I find out, the more I uncover, the more I know, the less I understand.”

“Sometimes it seems so easy to make people happy that I wonder why I don't do it more often.”

“Life is short. People are not easy to know. They're not easy to know, so if you don't tell them how you feel, you're not going to get anywhere, I feel.”

“Scarecrow: I haven't got a brain... only straw. Dorothy: How can you talk if you haven't got a brain? Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they? Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.”
