![]() Frank Morgan QuotationMovie Title: Summer Holiday (1948) as Uncle Sid: Richard Miller : Mankind was better off when lived in the Dark Ages. When everybody went around naked! Uncle Sid : Well, maybe so. But today it might interfere with your social life. Movie Title: The Wild Man of Borneo (1941) as J. Daniel Thompson: Francine Diamond : There ain't no flies on me! J. Daniel Thompson : You can't blame the flies, Francine. Movie Title: The Cockeyed Miracle (1946) as Sam Griggs: [Two ghosts argue about the family finances] Sam Griggs : All you left Ma and me was a fifteen-dollar saloon bill. Ben Griggs : I'll thank you to treat you father with more respect. [After Jennifer Griggs and her boyfriend are soaked by rain, Jennifer quickly exchanges her wet dress for a provocative blanket] Ben Griggs : What does she do? Sam Griggs : She's a librarian. Ben Griggs : Must read a lot. [Sam the ghost walks through his first wall] Sam Griggs : Look, Pa, no hands! Ben Griggs : Just as easy as I used to go through a week's pay. Movie Title: The Wizard of Oz (1939) as Guardian of the Emerald City Gates / Wizard of Oz / Professor Marvel: Dorothy : Oh please, Professor, why can't we go with you and see all the Crowned Heads of Europe? Professor Marvel : Do you know any? Oh, you mean the... thing. Yes. Professor Marvel : Professor Marvel never guesses. He knows! Wizard of Oz : Do not arouse the wrath of the great and powerful Oz. I said come back tomorrow. Wizard of Oz : A heart is not judged by how much you love; but by how much you are loved by others. Wizard of Oz : Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain. Wizard of Oz : As for you, my galvanized friend, you want a heart. You don't know how lucky you are not to have one. Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable. Tin Woodsman : But I still want one. Wizard of Oz : Why, anybody can have a brain. That's a very mediocre commodity. Every pusillanimous creature that crawls on the Earth or slinks through slimy seas has a brain. Back where I come from, we have universities, seats of great learning, where men go to become great thinkers. And when they come out, they think deep thoughts and with no more brains than you have. But they have one thing you haven't got: a diploma. Scarecrow : The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side. Oh joy! Rapture! I got a brain! How can I ever thank you enough? Wizard of Oz : You can't. Guardian of the Emerald City Gates : Orders are nobody can see the Great Oz! Not nobody, not nohow! Wizard of Oz : You people should consider yourselves lucky that I'm granting you an audience tomorrow instead of 20 years from now. Dorothy : Oh, Thank you so much! We've been gone such a long time & we feel so messy... WHAT KIND OF A HORSE IS THAT? I've never seen a horse like that before! Guardian of the Emerald City Gates : And never will again, I fancy. There's only one of him & he's it. He's the Horse of a Different Color, you've heard tell about. Wizard of Oz : You are talking to a man who has laughed in the face of death, sneered at doom and chuckled at catastrophe. Wizard of Oz : I can't come back! I don't know how it works! Good-bye folks! Wizard of Oz : They have one thing you haven't got: a diploma. Therefore, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Universitartus Committiartum E Pluribus Unum, I hereby confer upon you the honorary degree of ThD. The Scarecrow : ThD? Wizard of Oz : That's... Doctor of Thinkology. Wizard of Oz : To confer, converse, and otherwise hob-nob with my brother wizards. Movie Title: The Good Fairy (1935) as Konrad: Konrad : I can use one honest lawyer, but don't overdo it. Konrad : When I'm full of Dutch courage, I behave very Frenchly. Movie Title: Bombshell (1933) as Pops: Lola Burns : Get away from me, all of you! you're nothing but a pack of leeches! Pops : Leeches?!? Lola burns : Yes, leeches! At least he (motions to Space) was right; I don't know how I expected to bring a baby in here with an old fool for his grandfather who's half-drunk all the time! Miss Mack: Lola, you're exciting yourself- Lola Burns (interrupting) : And what about you? Don't think I don't know about your stealing and all the cuts you get from the stores! And you (to Bro) who hasn't had a job to your name in three years and bringing her in here like it was a hotel for traveling salesman! I've only stood it because it's the only home and family I've got. But I'm sick of it, you understand? There's only Loretta and the dogs that ever do a single thing for me. The rest of you are only out for what you can get, and I'm sick of being a golden goose or whatever you call it! Space Hanlon : Atta girl, Sugar! Lola (to Space) : Don't you 'atta girl' me; you're worst that all the rest of 'em! (starts quoting Space) "Stone-Age Stuff!","Mad with Desire!", "Lovers' Brawl!"! Is that the way you prove that you just more than care for me? Treating me like a strip act in a burlesque show! A glamorous bombshell, eh? A glorified chump, that's what I've been! Well, I'm sick of it, you understand? With the business and everybody! You can get another "It Girl", a "But Girl" or a "How, When and Where Girl"--I'm clearing out, and you can all stay here in this half-paid-for car barn and get somebody else to pull the apple cart! I'm going where ladies and gentlemen hang their hats and get some peace and quiet....and if any of you try to interfere with me, I'll complain to the authorities!!!! Movie Title: The Shop Around the Corner (1940) as Hugo Matuschek: [Alfred Kralik has just been called into his supervisor's office] Alfred Kralik : Yes, Mr. Matuschek Hugo Matuschek : Eh, close the door. Kralik, why did you put me in that situation, in front of the whole shop? Alfred Kralik : Well, I'm very sorry, sir... but it was not my fault. Hugo Matuschek : Well whose fault was it? Mine? Alfred Kralik : Well... yes. |
