- Bob Dog: I'm a spy for the war.
- Lady Aberlin: A spy for the WHAT?
- Bob Dog: The war. The war with Southwood.
- Lady Aberlin: But we're not having a war with Southwood. We're not having a war with anyone!
- Bob Dog: [after a pause] Well, then, just in case. See, I like to do detective work and that's a lot like spy work, you know.
- Lady Aberlin: I know, but war is not a game, Bob Dog. War isn't anything that's fun. War is a terrible thing and we must do all we can to not EVER have one.
- Bob Dog: Okay, well I can still wear this costume though, can't I?
- Mr. Rogers: People can make machines do helpful things, or they can make them do harmful things. I guess you know how important I think people are. When we start thinking about everything in the world, it's the people who are the most important part of all.
- Lady Aberlin: I can't help you, Uncle Friday. I told you again and again that I think that this whole thing is wrong. There's something terribly wrong about it.
- King Friday XIII: Don't you want this neighborhood to be protected? If Southwood is building bombs, we must do the same.
- Lady Aberlin: Why?
- King Friday XIII: Well, because... er, it's just the thing to do.
- Lady Aberlin: But, Uncle Friday, we don't even know the people of Southwood.
- King Friday XIII: We know that they might be building bombs.
- Lady Aberlin: That's not proof enough for me.
- Mr. Rogers: [showing a braille writing machine and how he writes in braille] If there was no light in the room, and you knew how to read braille, you could read a book. Or if you didn't see well with your eyes, you could feel the letters of a book in braille like this.
- [reads with his. fingers]
- Mr. Rogers: There are many ways of communicating what's important to people.
- Mr. Rogers: People don't have to imagine bad things all the time, you know. We can imagine good things, too.
- Lady Elaine Fairchilde: They'll never get me to believe all that bomb stuff!
- Lady Aberlin: Oh! Am I ever glad to hear you say that!
