Memorable Quotes from Amanda Donohoe
2 quotesConcerns Over the King's Health and Care
Lady Pembroke
Mr. Pitt.
William Pitt
Lady Pembroke.
[bows down as he tips of his bicorn hat]
Lady Pembroke
Her Majesty understands that you are dissatisfied with His Majesty's doctors.
William Pitt
The King is no better.
Lady Pembroke
Mr. Pitt, my mother-in-law lost her wits, and a succession of physicians failed to recover them for her. There was, however, one doctor who was confident of her return to health. And accordingly, she was placed in his care.
William Pitt
And is she recovered?
Lady Pembroke
Entirely. Rides to hounds, founded some almshouses, embroiders around the clock. I've written down his name.
[takes out a piece of paper; Pitt retrieves the paper]

Fletcher's Colorful Description of Mr. Allen
Miranda
Pardon me for interrupting your meeting. Mr. Allen, you remember Fletcher Reede.
Mr. Allen
Oh, yes! Yes. Nice to see you again, Fletcher. By the way, I'll be observing you in court this afternoon. I've been hearing some good things about you.
Miranda
Well, Fletcher has just been telling me what how much he thinks of you. Well, why don't you tell Mr. Allen? Well, what do you think of him?
[to Fletcher]
Fletcher
He's a pedantic, pontificating, pretentious bastard. A belligerent, old fart. A worthless, steaming pile of cow dung. Figuratively speaking!
[defeated; sighs]
Mr. Allen
That's the funniest damn thing I've ever heard! You're a real card, Reede! I love a good roast! Do Simmons!
Fletcher
Simmons is old! He should've been outta the game years ago, but he can't stay home, cause he hates his wife! You've met her at the Christmas parties! She's the one that gets plastered and calls him a retard! And you, Tom! You're the biggest brownnose I've ever seen! You've got your head so far up Mr. Allen's ass, I can't tell where you end and he begins!
[points at Simmons; to another member of the board]
Mr. Allen
Priceless!
[roars with laughter]
Fletcher
You have bad breath caused by gingivitis! You couldn't get a porn star off! Your hairpiece looks like something that was killed crossing the highway! I don't know whether to comb it or scrape it off with a shovel and bury it alive! Loser! Idiot! Wimp! Degenerate! Saaa-LUT!
[to another board member; to another member; to yet another; points at five other members of the board one at a time; pointing at Miranda; Miranda is shocked]
Mr. Allen
I like your style, Reede! That's just what this stuffy company needs! A little irreverence!
[shakes hands with Fletcher]
Fletcher
GOOD! I'll see ya later, dickhead!
Mr. Allen
Dickhead! Priceless!
Mr. Allen
Keep your eye on that boy. "Dickhead"!
[takes his seat]
