Transcript:
Phoebe; All the other leaves have given up, but that one has TENACITY. It doesn't are that it's different, or that it's alone. It inspires me. I'm not going anywhere as long as it doesn't. Except for right now, just really quick. Marigold: Where are you doing? Phoebe: Tenacity is easier when you have mittens.

When I took Latin in high school, I remember everyone having to keep a scrapbook of items featuring Latin-based words. I included a Sunday “Peanuts” strip where Linus uses the word tenacity a lot (from the Latin teneo-tenere, to hold or possess). If I were still keeping the scrapbook this comic would be included.
