The dwarfs can turn lead into gold... It reached the pointy ears of the dwarfs.- Can we?- Damned if I know. I can't.- Yeah, but if you could, you wouldn't say. I wouldn't say, if I could.- Can you?- No! - Ah-ha!

About This Quote

If the dwarfs can turn lead into gold, then we can do anything. It reached the pointy ears of the dwarfs. The dwarfs are a mythical species that is described in many fairy tales and stories for children. They possess magical powers such as the ability to turn lead into gold, change their size and create beautiful things.

The dwarfs can do both good and bad things so it’s very hard to distinguish who they really are, good or bad. When you see them, you should not think they are good or bad because that would be like comparing apples and oranges. They can be both one way or another depending on their mood and situation.
