Lily Owens:
You think something being an impossibility makes you think about it even more?

May Boatwright:
Like what?

Lily Owens:
I don't know. Like... kissin'.

May Boatwright:
That ain't impossible. When I was 15, I made a 7UP cake for this boy. After that, he kissed me all the time.

Lily Owens:
What'd it feel like?

May Boatwright:
Like I was gonna burst.

Lily Owens:
Miss May, I know you get real sad sometimes. My daddy never feels. He never felt anything. I had rather be like you.

May Boatwright:
A worker bee weigh less than a flower petal, but she can fly with a load heavier than her. But she only lives for or five weeks. Sometimes not feeling is the only way you can survive.

May Boatwright:
[noticing Zach smiling over a Lily] You want me to help you make a 7UP cake?
