Great Prince of the Forest: Your mother can`t be with you anymore.

Bambi: Mother? Mother?
(searches frantically for his mother. All the sudden he stops, because he is startled by what he sees. It is The Great Prince of the Forest)

Flower: (about two birds fluttering around) Well! What`s the matter with them?
Thumper: Why are they acting that way?
Friend Owl: Why, don`t you know? They`re twitterpated.
Flower, Bambi, Thumper: Twitterpated?
Friend Owl: Yes. Nearly everybody gets twitterpated in the springtime. For example: You`re walking along, minding your own business. You`re looking neither to the left, nor to the right, when all of a sudden you run smack into a pretty face. Woo-woo! You begin to get weak in the knees. Your head`s in a whirl. And then you feel light as a feather, and before you know it, you`re walking on air. And then you know what? You`re knocked for a loop, and you completely lose your head!
Thumper: Gosh, that`s awful.
Flower: Gee whiz.
Bambi: Terrible!
Friend Owl: And that ain`t all. It could happen to anyone, so you`d better be careful.
(points at Bambi)
Friend Owl: It could happen to you...
(points at Thumper)
Friend Owl: ... or you, or even...
(Flower looks at Owl shyly)
Friend Owl: Yes, it could even happen to you!
Thumper: Well, it`s not gonna happen to me.
Bambi: Me neither.
Flower: Me neither.

Friend Owl: Same thing every spring. "Tweet-tweet, tweet-tweet! Tweet-tweet, tweet-tweet!" Love`s sweet song. Hm! Pain in the pinfeathers, I call it!

Thumper: Hiya, Bambi! Watch what I can do!
(jumps into the frozen pond and slides on the ice)
Thumper: Come on, it`s all right. Look.
(thumps on ice)
Thumper: The water`s stiff.

Young Bambi: He stopped and looked at me.
Bambi`s Mother: Yes, I know.
Young Bambi: Why was everyone still when he came in the meadow?
Bambi`s Mother: Everyone respects him. For of all the deer in the forest, not one has lived half so long. He is very brave and very wise. That`s why he is known as the Great Prince of the Forest.

Friend Owl: I was talking to myself about you the other day, we were wondering what became of you.

(repeated line)
Friend Owl: (everytime he is woken up) Oh, what now?

Great Prince of the Forest: It is Man. He is here again. There are many this time. We must go deep into the forest. Hurry! Follow me!
Bambi: Faline!

(first lines)
Thumper: Wake up, wake up!
