Quote context

[...]

- Add the fingers of a young monkey, the gizzard of a pig, the beak of a parrot and three spoonfuls of sugar. Stew for a week, and then let the moon do the rest.

- Have 'em, and marvelous things will happen. Things even you never dreamt of.

- Like what?

- Well, like you'll never be miserable again.

- And you are miserable, aren't you, James? You weren't meant to be, you know.

- And that place you're dreamin' of, it's not as far away as you think.

- New York City!

- And it'll be that much closer, once you take the first step.

- But how? This doesn't make any sense.

- Not up here, it doesn't.

- The answers are in here, and the magic is in here.

- So, James, what'll it be?

- Now listen to me, James. Don't let them get away, because if they do, they'll work their magic on whoever or whatever they meet first. Understand? Good.
