Sterling Holloway Quotes:

Amos Mouse: [voiceover] I was born and raised in Philadelphia, in the old church down on Second Street. Our home was in the vestry, behind the paneling. There were 26 children in the family, and with that many mouths to feed, we were naturally quite poor. In fact, as poor as church mice.

Narrator: Time changes everything. The little spring lambs were sheep by fall. And Lambert's ma, oh, was she proud of him! Because she had the *biggest* sheep, or - ewe, or lamb, or whatever - isn't he huge?


Narrator: [after Lambert defeats the wolf] Lambert's mother is so proud, and the sheep have changed their tune.
