Pinocchio (August Wayne Booth)

Water is a very powerful thing. Cultures as old as time have worshipped it. It flows throughout all lands, connecting the entire world. If anything had mystical properties, if anything had magic, well, I'd say it'd be water.

Once upon a time

Season 1

Episode 13

— But you told me to be honest, father. You told me not to lie.
— Sometimes... We have to lie to protect the people we love, eh?

Pinocchio (August Wayne Booth)

— You don't want to believe. After everything you've seen, why can't you just do it?
— Why is it so important to you that I do?
— Because I, the town... everyone needs you.
— I don't want them to need me.
— Well, that's too bad, because we all do.
— You're saying that I am responsible for everyone's happiness? That is crap! I didn't ask for that! I don't want it!
<...>
— Well, that's too bad, Emma, because that doesn't change the truth. You are our only hope.
— Then you're all screwed.

Emma Swan

Sometimes it's hard to see what's right in front of us.

— If you need evidence for everything, Emma, you're gonna find yourself stuck in one place for a long time.
— Maybe. Or maybe I'll just find the truth before anyone else.

Pinocchio (August Wayne Booth)

— What you working on?
— Uh, no time to talk. I gotta write it all down before I forget.
— Yeah, I hate it when great ideas slip away from me.
— They're not my ideas. They're stories from a book that I lost.
— Must be a hell of a book. What's it about?
— Stuff.
— Sounds exciting.
— You seem awfully interested in me and my book.
— Oh. I'm just being neighborly.
— What are you doing in Storybrooke?
— I'm a writer.
— You can write anywhere. What are you really doing here?
— Stuff. Good luck with the stories.
