Every living thing was shunning him. Poor little Peter Pan, he sat down and cried, and even then he did not know that, for a bird, he was sitting on his wrong part.

The reason birds can fly and we can't is simply that they have perfect faith, for to have faith is to have wings. View quote
J. M. Barrie

In the original draft I was 27 and Peter was 55 in the script. That's not the same as a guy in his 40s and a dad in the end of his 70s. It's a different point in both our lives. View quote
