Kid quotes

Michael was reprimanding Elliot about something.  Apparently Elliot was feeling like the conversation was unfair.  This is what he said:
I feel like I'm the 13 colonies and you're the English king.  I don't have the power to fight back.

Elsie was not enjoying a canoe trip down the river in Valentine. Michael and a friend were trying to cheer her and other kids up with knock knock jokes.  Elsie was even laughing a little.  She got quiet for a few minutes and then said, "Knock knock".  Michael thought, oh good, she's getting into it!  So he said, "who's there?" To which Elsie replied, "I hate the river."  Hm.  Maybe not so much.

This morning when making breakfast Elliot said, "I'd like the usual: cereal and toast.  And a bar for an extra kick."  ?
