[about the goat that ate his paper]
Please keep that inconsiderate beast away from me! And refrain from ridiculous anecdotes.

Why do you not like his story, Mr. Frog?
Phileas
It's Fogg. Phileas Fogg. How could a man learn to defend himself by watching animals behave like... animals?
Monique
It is famous legend.
Phileas
A ridiculous legend.
Monique
Most legends are born from truth.
Phileas
Yes. But all truths are born from facts. Solid, tangible facts that can be calculated and written down on paper.
Monique
And then eaten by a goat. [all the children laugh]

Mr. Feelsillious, when I tell the story of the man who circled the entire world in 80 days, would that not be a legend?
