Quotes 

  • Greg Madison : When you're born, your spirit slips into your body like a glove. It's your spirit that moves your body and gives you your thoughts and feelings. Look here.

    [Greg waves his hand] 

    Greg Madison : Here's your spirit and when you're born, your spirit slips into your body like that.

    [Greg slips his hand into a glove] 

    Greg Madison : And then for your whole life long, your spirit and your body act as one. Now, when the time comes for the spirit to leave this world, when you die, your spirit slips out of your body the same way.

    [Greg takes the glove off and wiggles his hand] 

    Greg Madison : And even though the body dies, the spirit lives forever.

    Ben Madison : You mean, my body is like a glove?

    Greg Madison : Yes.

    Ben Madison : And my spirit goes to heaven?

    Claire : That's right, Ben

    Ben Madison : Am I gonna die, Mom?

    Claire : Yes, Ben, you are... We all are, but your time may come sooner than ours.

  • Ben Madison : Grandma, would you be mad at me if I died?

    Margo : Of course not.

    Ben Madison : Do you think Mom and Dad would be mad at me?

    Margo : Honey, you didn't do anything wrong. They could never be mad at you.

    Ben Madison : But they've had me so long, they'd miss me so much.

    Margo : Of course, they would miss you. But they love you very much and they could never, ever be mad at you.

  • Ben Madison : I'm gonna die, you know?

    Jeff : Hey, don't say that.

    Ben Madison : Why?

    Jeff : Because you don't know that for sure.

    Ben Madison : Yes, I do.

    Jeff : Are you scared?

    Ben Madison : No.

    Jeff : Hey, wait a minute, this IV is all tangled.

    Ben Madison : You'd make a good doctor.

    Jeff : You think so, huh?

    Ben Madison : Yeah, and I've known a lot of doctors... My mom and dad told me that when you die, you don't hurt anymore, and it's not scary because somebody you love- somebody who's already gone- comes to meet you. But you know what I think? I think that if you want to, you become a guardian angel for somebody special, somebody really special. Maybe I'll be a guardian angel for you.
