Didn't recognize it, but looking up the source and seeing it's a quote from a movie by Don Bluth -- it's going on my list of things to go find a copy of...!

The Pebble and the Penguin is kind of a weird movie, but I had it on VHS as a kid and watched it a lot. It taught me about rockhopper penguins. I have no idea if it holds up, I got the impression much later that it's really disjointed but that was from a kind of iffy source so idunno anymore.

It seems to be regarded as one of Bluth's weaker movies (and may have gotten fucked over by business meddling if I'm following the wiki article on it right...) but I'm on an 80s/90s animation binge lately, so it's right up my alley!
Will let you know what I think once I've actually seen it.
