Sometimes you have to censor books. When I read 'Peter Rabbit,' I skip the part about Peter's father ending up in one of Mrs. McGregor's pies. I also hid the book of 'Grimm Fairy Tales.' They're just too grim for my grandkids. Reality will come soon enough. - Regina Brett

I have always been a great fan of Peter Chan and many other great directors who specialize in anything outside of action. - Donnie Yen

'Peter Pan' is tried and true - it's a story that everybody knows. - Taylor Louderman

I wish I could be Peter Falk. - Ryan Gosling

Back in the 1950s and '60s, J. M. Barrie's 'Peter Pan' - starring Mary Martin and Cyril Ritchard - was regularly aired on network television during the Christmas season.
