• [the family arrives at the farm to take Wilbur to the fair] 

  Homer Zuckerman : There he is!

  Arable : That's some pig.

  Avery Arable : He's terrific.

  Lurvy : He's radiant.

  Mrs. Zuckerman : Well, he's clean anyway. That buttermilk certainly helped.

• Mrs. Fussy : Henry, I told you you could visit, not spend the day.

  Henry Fussy : I'm sorry, mother. We were having fun.

  Mrs. Fussy : Well, you've kept your music teacher waiting twenty minutes; run along home.

  [Henry does so, then Mrs. Fussy looks up at the words "Some Pig" in the web, now looking torn from damage from a hornet] 

  Mrs. Fussy : Those words in the web, was that some trick of *yours*, Fern?

  [she leaves] 

  Fern Arable : [turns and runs after her]  No, ma'am, it was a *miracle*!

  Mrs. Fussy : Hmm, it doesn't look very miraculous anymore.

• Fern Arable : You know, Henry, you ought to have a dog or something.

  Henry Fussy : Well, mother says pets are unsanitary.

  Fern Arable : Wilbur's not. He's as clean as a whistle.

  Mrs. Fussy : Henry Fussy! You put that thing down!
