- Marion: But Karl, yours might have been the finest answer we've ever had. I'll read it now. "Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Caught in a landslide; no escape from reality. Open your eyes, look up to the skies, and see."
- Zippo: Yes, yes, truly inspiring.
- David Scott: That's cheating! That's the lyrics to 'Bohemian Rhapsody!'
- Romana Denison: David, what is it?
- David Scott: It's the height. I think I'm having a panic attack.
- Romana Denison: Remember you are of the Sky.
- David Scott: I am not of the Sky. I don't know who said that. If anything I'm of the Couch.
- Karl Scott: Knock, knock.
- Marion: Who's there?
- Karl Scott: Goliath.
- Marion: Goliath who?
- Karl Scott: Goliath down, you looketh tired!
- Marion: Was Goliath a real name?
- Karl Scott: He was a giant, a bully. A boy knocked him down with a slingshot. Everyone knows the story of Karl and Goliath!
- [Karl is carving a graffiti on a school desk]
- Marion: Karl, that is unnecessary destruction of public property... and that is not how stegosauruses reproduce.
- Rosemary: Karl, you're not on vacation; you're expected to work with the other students during the day.
- Karl Scott: Look, no disrespect, Rosemary, but I'm not a Dinotopian, and I don't want to become one, okay?
- Rosemary: Do you intend to eat our food?
- Karl Scott: Well, yeah, I guess.
- Rosemary: Then you help us make it. Starting now. And please address me as Matriarch in the future.
- David Scott: [about Cyrus Crabb] I'm not sure I trust that guy.
- Karl Scott: Why not? He's just a weird old guy with a limp and a few sticks of dynamite.
- [Marrion and Zippo are in the Waterfall City's Town square, before the pteradon attack]
- Zippo: Marion, you remember that I wouldn't chose another human partner after Sylvia's death? Well... If I did get to choose another life partner, it would be you.
- Marion: [smiles;genuinely touched] I will and shall always be your dearest friend.
- [she holds up her hand]
- Marion: Breathe deep, Zippo.
- Zippo: [holding up and pressing his saurian hand against Marion's humanly hand] Seek peace, Marion.
- [Karl just rescued Zippo from being eaten by a mosasaur at the entrance of the ancient Dinotopian temple. Zippo runs away from the river's edge, crying out in pain and fear]
- Zippo: [examining his half-bitten tail] It was EATING me!
- [Zippo shakes his fist at the mosasaurs; passionately]
- Zippo: I do hope you choke on it!
- [an ankylosaurus appears before the boys' eyes]
- Karl Scott: [shocked] My God! What is that thing?
- David Scott: [amazed] It's-It's a dinosaur!
