Quotes 

• Aang : Sokka, you've got to get up and do your rock-climbing exercises.

  Sokka : [Confused]  What?

  Aang : In one of my dreams, you were running from Fire Nation soldiers, trying to climb this cliff, but you were too slow and they got you.

  Sokka : [protesting]  But that was just a dream. I'm a great climber.

  Aang : [Points to a cliff]  Then climb that cliff. Climb it fast!

  Sokka : [Begins climbing, annoyed]  Stupid Avatar. Stupid cliff. Stupid dream. I can climb fast.

  Aang : [as Toph is about to take a drink of water]  Don't drink that!

  Sokka : [startled and falls off cliff]  Oh!

  Toph : Why? Is it poisoned?

  Aang : In my dream, we were right in the middle of the invasion, and you had to stop to use the bathroom. We died because of your tiny bladder.

  Aang : [to Katara]  And you need to start wearing your hair up. In my dream, your hair got caught in a train, and...

  Katara : [Cutting him off]  Aang, I know you're just trying to help, but you really need to get a grip. You're unraveling.

• Momo : [to Appa, about Aang]  Yeah, leave the kid alone.

  Appa : [Angry]  Hey, who asked you?

  [Appa and Momo snarl at each other] 

  Sokka : Guys, come on.

  Appa : No, I am sick of this guy always mouthing off and telling me what to do.

  Momo : Oh, you don't like it? Well, let's go right now!

  Aang : [Runs up to Sokka]  Sokka, what should we do?

  Sokka : About what?

  Aang : About that!

  [Points to Appa and Momo, who in his mind are engaged in a fierce sword duel] 

• Katara : So, do you feel less stressed? Ready for a good night sleep?

  Aang : Uh, I kind of think I sort of might slightly feel a little better, maybe.

  Sokka : Then our work here is done.

• Katara : Aang? We're all starting to get a little worried about you.

  Sokka : You've been awake too long.

  Toph : And you're acting downright weird.

  Appa : You've got to take care of yourself. You can't go on like this.

• Aang : It's like every time I think about how stressed I am, I just end up more stressed. I'm like a big, growing snowball of nerves.

  Sokka : Of course you are. That's 'cause you gotta fight the Fire Lord, the baddest man on the planet. And you'd better win or we're all done for.

  Katara : Sokka, you're not helping.

  Sokka : What? It's true, that's the deal, he knows it.

• Sokka : [Acting as Aang's psychiatrist]  Why don't you get right down to business and tell me what's been bothering you.

  Aang : You know what's bothering me! I have to fight the Fire Lord in a few days.

  Sokka : Mm-hmm. Tell me more about this... 'Fire Lord.' Why are you so afraid of him?

  Aang : You said it yourself. He's the baddest man on the planet. I'm supposed to defeat him and save the world.

  Sokka : Hmm, life does feel that way sometimes, doesn't it? Like we're all trying to save the world from evil.

  Aang : [Getting annoyed]  Okay, but what can I do to feel better?

  Sokka : Want to try screaming into this pillow?

  [Hands Aang a fluffy Koala-Sheep] 

• [Sees a large fluffy pad and pokes at it skeptically] 

  Aang : Oh look, another hallucination. An imaginary bed made out of clouds.

  Toph : Hey, it's real! We spent hours working on it.

  Sokka : We made it for you.

  [See the Koala-sheep have had their fur sheared off] 

  Sokka : A good night sleep will probably take the crazy away. We hope.

  Aang : Look, you guys keep telling me I need to sleep. But I can't! The invasion's tomorrow!

  Katara : Aang...

  Aang : No, Katara! There's still so much I haven't learned. I don't need sleep. What I need is practice. Quick, hit me.

  Katara : I'm not going to hit you.

  Toph : You want me to do it?

• [first lines] 

  Sokka : This is it. The official rendezvous point for the invasion force.

  Toph : How did you pick this place?

  Sokka : Before we split up, my Dad and I found this island on a map. It's uninhabited and the harbor surrounded by cliffs seemed like the perfect secluded place.
