He knows every scale.

Josh Primm

• That was totally awesome!
• Okay, yes, crocodiles can bite through bone and, yes, they have a taste for human flesh, but he's not like that. He wears a scarf and he can sing.

Hector P. Valenti

• You must be the new tenants. I see that you've met my crocodile. He's an extraordinary talent. His name is Lyle.
• [as Lyle is licking him] I miss you, too!
• Who wants to be safe? No-no-no safe is a repellent little word, exponge it from your mind! We are here to live, yes? And living is a dangerous business, my friend!
• Nothing could be of less importance than what other people think. Let people stare! For once in their dreary lives, they have something wonderful to look at; Look! Look!
