They have an opinion about your decisions and the things you say and do. They want to be a part of it; they want to be a part of you.

You'll always have her there. Always.

Peter: But why did she have to die?

J.M.: I don't know, Peter. When I think of your mother, I will always remember how happy she looked, sitting in the parlor watching a play about her family, about her boys that never grew up. She went to Neverland. And you can visit her any time you like if you just go there yourself.

Peter: How?

J.M.: By believing, Peter. Just believe.
