Maybe We're All Cabinets Of Wonders.

If You've Ever Wondered Where Your Dreams Come From When You Go To Sleep At Night, Just Look Around. This Is Where They Are Made.

The Idea Of Going To The Movies Made Hugo Remember Something Father Had Once Told Him About Going To The Movies When He Was Just A Boy, When The Movies Were New. Hugo's Father Had Stepped Into A Dark Room, And On A White Screen He Had Seen A Rocket Fly Right Into The Eye Of The Man In The Moon. Father Said He Had Never Experienced Anything Like It. It Had Been Like Seeing His Dreams In The Middle Of The Day.

Even If All The Clocks In The Station Break Down, Thought Hugo, Time Won't Stop. Not Even If You Really Want It To. Like Now.

Time Can Play All Sorts Of Tricks On You. In The Blink Of An Eye, Babies Appear In Carriages, Coffins Disappear Into The Ground, Wars Are Won And Lost, And Children Transform, Like Butterflies, Into Adults.
