A scene from The Wizard of Oz 1939
Scarecrow

Do you think if I went with you this Wizard would give me some brains?

Dorothy

I couldn't say. But even if he didn't, you'd be no worse off than you are now.

Scarecrow

Yes, that's true.

Dorothy

But maybe you'd better not. I've got a witch mad at me and you might get into trouble.

Scarecrow

Witch? I'm not afraid of a witch. I'm not afraid of anything. Oh... except a lighted match. [indicates his straw stuffing]

Dorothy

I don't blame you for that.

Scarecrow

But I'd face a whole box full of them for the chance of getting some brains! Look, I won't be any trouble, because I don't eat a thing. And I won't try to manage things, because I can't think. Won't you take me with you?

Dorothy

Why, of course I will.

Scarecrow

Hooray! We're off to see a Wizard!
