Observations and Reflections – GRANDPA JOE Quotes
- “Mr. Wonka, Charlie is the only one left.”
- “I think there’s someone at the door!”
- “He says that Charlie’s won something!”
- “That’s you, Charlie.”
- “It’s quite a likeness.”
- “Think so? I know so! I saw Willy Wonka with my own two eyes! I used to work for him, you know.”
- “I did.”
- “Of course, I was a much younger man in those days. Only, say, sixty- five or seventy.”
- “Twenty-five years ago, Willy Wonka began with a small store on Cherry Street, but the whole world wanted his candy.”
- “Willy Wonka had the knack for candy. He could make tiny candy- coated eggs that you sucked on for only a few seconds, and they hatched into little chocolate birds.”
- “The man was a genius. Did you know he invented a new way of making chocolate ice cream so that it stays cold for hours, without a freezer? You can even leave it lying in the sun for hours on a hot day, and it won’t go runny!”
- “But Willy Wonka did it! Before long, he decided to build a proper chocolate factory. I had retired by then, mind you, this was only fifteen years ago. It was the largest chocolate factory in history! Fifty times as big as any other! The opening day was a media sensation!”
- “You mean Prince Pondicherry! Well, Prince Pondicherry wrote a letter to Mr. Wonka, and asked him to come all the way out to India and build him a colossal palace, entirely out of chocolate.”
- “True to his word, the bricks were chocolate, and even the cement holding them together was chocolate! All the walls and ceilings were made out of chocolate as well! So were the carpets and the pictures and the furniture. Even the telephone was chocolate. Prince Pondicherry was pleased as punch.”
- “But Mr. Wonka was right, of course. Soon after, there came a very hot day, with a boiling sun.”
- “The entire palace melted away in the course of an hour. It was all Prince Pondicherry could do to escape with his life and not drown in liquid chocolate! Soon after, he sent an urgent telegram to Mr. Wonka in request of a new palace. But Willy Wonka was facing problems of his own.”
- “All the other candy makers, you see, had grown jealous of Mr. Wonka. They began sending in spies to steal his secret recipes.”
- “Fickelgrubber started making an ice cream that would never melt. Prodnose came out with a chewing gum that never lost its flavour. Slugworth began marketing candy balloons that you could blow up to incredible sizes-“
- “Then pop with a pin. The thievery got so bad that one day, without warning, Willy Wonka told every single one of his workers to go home! He announced that he was closing his chocolate factory forever!”
- “And it seemed as if it were going to be closed forever. But one day, we saw smoke rising from the chimneys. The factory was back in business!”
- “No. No one did.”
- “Exactly!”
- “Nobody sees him anymore. He never goes out. The only thing that comes out of that place is the candy, already packed and addressed! I’d give anything in the world to see that man and his business one more time, and see what’s become of that amazing factory.”
- “Well you won’t, because you can’t. No one can! It’s a mystery, and it will always be a mystery. That model factory of yours, Charlie, is as close as any of us is ever going to get.”
- “Goodnight.”
- “He’s Willy Wonka!”
- “Hard to say, it’s been years.”
- “Mr. Wonka, I don’t know if you remember me, but I used to work in your factory!”
- “No sir!”
- “Of course they were, Charlie. That boy will be fine!”
- “She’s swelling up!”
- “It sounds great!”

Words of Action and Encouragement – GRANDPA JOE Quotes
- “I’ll shuffle the plates.”
- “Wouldn’t it be something, Charlie, to open a bar of chocolate and find a golden ticket inside?”
- “Now that they’ve found one, things will really get crazy.”
- “Don’t worry, Charlie. That man spoils his daughter, and no good ever comes of spoiling a child like that.”
- “If you add our ages together, we’re three hundred and eighty-one years old. We don’t wait!”
- “Ah, well. That’s that.”
- “Oh, no, Charlie. Not your birthday present.”
- “Alright, let’s see who found it!”
- “Charlie!”
- “My secret hoard. You and I are going to have one more fling at finding the last ticket.”
- “Of course I’m sure. Here. Run down to the nearest store, and buy the first Wonka candy bar you see. Bring it straight back and we’ll open it together.”
- “Here! Read it aloud! Let’s hear exactly what it says.”
- “Then we’ve not a moment to lose! Come on, Charlie! Wash your face, brush your hair, blow your nose, clean your teeth-“
- “I will! I’ll take him! You leave it to me!”
