Quotes 

• Charlie Brown : I'm depressed, Linus. I need an encouraging word to cheer me up.

  Linus : Happiness lies in our destiny like a cloudless sky before the storms of tomorrow destroy the dreams of yesterday and last week.

  Charlie Brown : I think that blanket is doing something to you.

• [first lines] 

  [Charlie Brown picks up a rock from the beach, and throws it into the water] 

  Linus : Nice going, Charlie Brown. It took that rock 4,000 years to get to shore, and now you've thrown it back.

  Charlie Brown : Everything I do makes me feel guilty.

• Linus : [Linus tells Charlie Brown what he found out about Snoopy's past]  You're not Snoopy's orginal owner.

  [Charlie Brown faints again] 

  Linus : [rolling his eyes]  Oh, good grief!

  [Charlie Brown gets back up] 

  Linus : You bought Snoopy in the month of October, right? According to the records at the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm, Snoopy was bought by another family in August. This family had a little girl named Lila. Snoopy and Lila loved each other very much, but then they moved, and the family decided they just couldn't keep Snoopy so they returned him.

  [pause] 

  Linus : You got a used dog, Charlie Brown.

  [Charlie Brown looks shocked... and faints again] 

• Charlie Brown : If I don't find out what happened to Snoop, I think I'll go out of my mind!

  Linus : If you'll calm down for a minute, Charlie Brown, I may able to conduct a little private investigation.

  Charlie Brown : Just what I need, a blanket-carrying Sherlock Holmes!

• [last lines] 

  Linus : [outraged by a note handed out by Snoopy]  Look at this, Charlie Brown!

  Charlie Brown : [reading it]  "To Linus Van Pelt: I expect my croquet set and chess set returned forthwith, in good order, and within five days, or the matter will be turned over to my attorney."

  Schroeder : [outraged over his own note from Snoopy]  And mine says... he wants the record collection back!

  Charlie Brown : [reading his own letter]  And mine says... that since he gave me nothing, I owe him nothing!

  [glares at Snoopy] 

  Lucy : That does it, Charlie Brown! He's your dog, and you're welcome to him!

  [everyone walks out on Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and Woodstock; Charlie, annoyed at Snoopy, follows suit] 

• Linus : [Linus found out the reason why Snoopy ran away]  Are you ready for a shock?

  [Charlie Brown faints] 

  Linus : He wasn't ready for a shock.

  [Charlie Brown gets back up] 

  Linus : How can I tell you something that will shock you if you pass out before I can tell you?

  Charlie Brown : I'm sorry; I've been hyperventilating a lot lately...

• Linus : He wanted my blanket, I wouldn't let go. He left 'cause I was hostile and unkind to him.

• Charlie Brown : Why would Snoopy go to Lila?

  Linus : Maybe Snoopy felt he needed a vacation. Maybe his life with you was getting too boring.

  Charlie Brown : Boring? What was I supposed to do? Keep him entertained?

  Linus : I don't know. What do other dog owners do?

  Charlie Brown : I never thought of myself as being a dog owner. Snoopy was more like a friend.

  Linus : Friends get bored too, Charlie Brown.

• Linus : People buy pets for strange reasons.

• Charlie Brown , Sally Brown , Lucy , Linus , Schroeder : [singing]  Lose or win, sink or swim, We're the best of buddies, Snoopy, We're the best of buddies, We're the best of buddies, Me and you!
