Peter Pan I Ve Lost My Marbles

Q from mike pataky.

Peter pan i ve lost my marbles.

Ever so much more than twenty. He is described as the most humble of the lost boys because of his terrible luck with adventures. Can you tell me the origin of the expression he has lost his marbles meaning gone mad or lost his reason or done something really stupid being a londoner myself i suspected it might be a cockney expression but i recently heard it in peter pan where the uncle who is not quite compos mentis is said to have found his lost marbles. I grew up a long time ago.

Because of this he has become accepting of his lot in life and is much sweeter for it. You re a you re a complex freudian hallucination having something to do with my mother and i don t know why you have wings but you have very lovely legs and you re a very nice tiny person and what am i saying i don t know who my mother was. Tootles is the peter pan character who is seen searching for something on the floor and explains i ve lost my marbles in the movie hook. Turns the page of a storybook to reveal an illustration of peter pan peter remembers the last time he came for wendy peter i can t come with you.

Later in neverland thud butt gives peter a small bag containing tootles marbles revealing that they were his happy thoughts and he lost them literally rather than. I m an orphan and i ve never done drugs because i missed the sixties i was an accountant. As soon as tootles goes away to complete a chore or somesuch bloody battles and thrilling adventures take place. Peter don t you know who you are.
