“It really was no miracle, what happened was just this. The wind began...” – Dorothy, The Wizard of Oz ... Movie Quotes Database

Dorothy

It really was no miracle, what happened was just this. The wind began to switch, the house to pitch. And suddenly the hinges started to unhitch. Just then the Witch, to satisfy an itch, went flying on her broomstick thumbin' for a hitch.
