Someplace where there isn't any trouble... (tossing a piece of her cruller to Toto) ...do you suppose there is such a place, Toto? There must be. It's not a place you can get to by a boat or train. It's far, far away... beyond the moon... beyond the rain.(singing) Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high,There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby.Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue,And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true.
Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore. We must be over the rainbow!
My! People come and go so quickly here!
There's Emerald City! Oh, we're almost there at last! At last! It's beautiful, isn't it? Just like I knew it would be! He really must be a wonderful wizard to live in a city like that!
Well, I... I think that it... that it wasn't enough to just want to see Uncle Henry and Auntie Em... and it's that if I ever go looking for my heart's desire again, I won't look any further than my own backyard; because if it isn't there, I never really lost it to begin with.
There's no place like home; there's no place like home; there's no place like home...
[last lines] Oh, but anyway, Toto, we're home – home! And this is my room – and you're all here – and I'm not going to leave here ever, ever again, because I love you all! And... oh, Auntie Em, there's no place like home!

Now lookit, Dorothy – you ain't using your head about Miss Gulch. Think you didn't have any brains at all!
You see, I can't even scare a crow! They come from miles around just to eat my fields and... and laugh in my face. Oh, I'm a failure, because I haven't got a brain!
