 David Tomlinson QuotationMovie Title: Mary Poppins (1964) as George Banks / George W. Banks / Mr. Banks: [On the failure of their previous nanny] Mrs. Banks : She seemed so solemn and cross. George Banks : Never confuse efficiency with a liver complaint. Mr. Banks : [singing] It's grand to be an Englishman in 1910 / King Edward's on the throne; it's the age of men. Mr. Banks : [singing] It's 6:03 and the heirs to my dominion are scrubbed and tubbed and adequately fed. And so I'll pat them on the head and send them off to bed. Ah, lordly is the life I lead. Mrs. Banks : As a matter of fact, since you hired Mary Poppins, the most extraordinary things seem to have come over the household. Mr. Banks : Is that so. Mrs. Banks : Take Ellen for instance. She hasn't broken a dish all morning. Mr. Banks : Really. Well, that is extraordinary. Mr. Banks : Just a moment, Mary Poppins. What is the meaning of this outrage? Mary Poppins : I beg your pardon? Mr. Banks : Will you be good enough to explain all this? Mary Poppins : First of all I would like to make one thing perfectly clear. Mr. Banks : Yes? Mary Poppins : I never explain anything. [exits] George Banks : Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with facts. George Banks : [singing] A man has dreams of walking with giants To carve his niche in the edifice of time. Before the mortar of his seal Has a chance to congeal The cup is dashed from his lips The flame is snuffed a-borning He's brought to wrack and ruin in his prime. Mr. Dawes Jr : In 1773, an official on this bank financed a shipment of tea to the American colonies, do you know what happened? George W. Banks : Yes, sir, I think I do. A group the colonists dressed as red Indians boarded the vessel and dumped the tea overboard, making the tea unsuitable for drinking. Even for Americans. Mr. Dawes Jr : Yes. The loan was defaulted. Panic ensued within these walls. There was a run on the bank. Mr. Dawes Sr : There has not been a run on this bank... Until today. A run, sir, caused by the disgraceful conduct of your son, do you deny it? Mary Poppins : I beg your pardon, are you ill? George Banks : I hope not. Jane : Good morning, father. Mary Poppins taught us the most wonderful word. Michael : Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. George W. Banks : What on Earth are you talking about? Superca - Super - or whatever the infernal thing is. Jane : It's something to say when you don't know what to say. George W. Banks : Yes, well, I always know what to say. George Banks : [Going to see the bank] We must be on our best behavior. Michael : But I thought it was your bank. George Banks : Well I'm one of the younger officers so in a sense it is. Sort of. George Banks : Shut the window. That bird is giving me a headache. Ellen : [To the bird] Quiet. You're giving the master a headache. George Banks : Have this piano repaired. When I sit down to an instrument, I like to have it in tune. Winifred Banks: But George, you don't play. George Banks : Madam, that is entirely beside the point. Movie Title: The Love Bug (1968) as Mr. Thorndyke: Mr. Thorndyke : I salute your honesty, my dear, a quality not necessarily to be despised. Mr. Thorndyke : [In a whimperish voice] Havershaw, Im not a cowardly man, but I get the feeling that thing is out to get me. Havershaw : Now now Sir, none of that, we're not losing our nerve are we? Mr. Thorndyke : [Suddenly in a bellowing voice] BLAST You Havershaw! How dare you patronize me! I am not losing my nerve! Havershaw : [scared voice] No sir. no sir, of course not. [Thorndyke kicks the little white car in his shop] Jim Douglas : What's that for? Mr. Thorndyke : I beg your pardon! Jim Douglas : Well, why don't you let the little car alone? Mr. Thorndyke : Are you presuming to tell me what to do in my own establishment? Jim Douglas : Ok, I'm out of line. It just bugs me to see somebody abusing a decent piece of machinery. Mr. Thorndyke : Good evening. Tennessee Steinmetz : Sorry, the other rats are out for the evening! Mr. Thorndyke : What part of Ireland did you say your mother came from? Tennessee Steinmetz : Coney, Ireland. [laughs drunkenly] Mr. Thorndyke : At a time like this, whatever kind of time it is, I always say money serves to ease the pain. Mr. Thorndyke : [bad-mouthing Herbie] Mr. Douglas, I have a friend with a "claw-and-hook auto wrecking company" in San Francisco, and he's going to work on your car. Maybe he'll transform it into a birdbath. Or what about a nice doormat, so I can wipe my feet on it everyday. It's too bad this thing doesn't have the gumption to get up to the starting line this morning. I should have enjoyed beating it. [kicks Herbie again, and Tennessee lets out this loud shrieking grunt] Movie Title: Bedknobs and Broomsticks (1971) as Mr. Browne (dancing with it) / Mr. Browne: Mr. Browne : Observe the fundamental weakness of the criminal mind. They will believe no one nor anything. Mr. Browne : Women always lose things. [as all of Miss Price's belongings come alive thanks to a magic incantation] Miss Price : That's my nightgown. Mr. Browne (dancing with it) : Is it really, my dear? Miss Price : Yes, and I'm not responsible for its behavior. Mr. Browne : Obviously not, my dear. |
