Helena Bonham CarterQuotes

Victor Frankenstein: I have done something - so terrible, so evil, that I am frightened that if I tell you the truth, that I will lose you.

Elizabeth: You'll lose me if you don't.

Henry Clerval: Victor? Victor! Victor, open the door! Victor, please!

Victor Frankenstein: What do you want?

Henry Clerval: There's cholera. It's an epidemic! The city's been placed under martial law. Are you listening to me, Victor?

Victor Frankenstein: Yes. And?

Henry Clerval: The militia's arriving to quarantine the city. Most of us are getting out while we still can. Krempe knows you're here. What if he tells the authorities?

Victor Frankenstein: Goodbye, Henry.

Elizabeth: Victor, it's me. Elizabeth. Can you hear me? Victor, I have to see you.

Victor Frankenstein: Go away.

Elizabeth: Please, Victor! I won't leave here until you see me.

Victor Frankenstein: Come in the side door. Alone!

Elizabeth: What's happened to you? How can you live here like this? And that stench.

Victor Frankenstein: Don't go in there!

Elizabeth: We have to leave. It isn't safe.

Victor Frankenstein: No, I have to stay.

Elizabeth: Even if it means you'll die?

Victor Frankenstein: Yes.

Elizabeth: Well, let me help you.

Victor Frankenstein: No, that's impossible.

Elizabeth: We made a promise. Victor, I beg you.

Victor Frankenstein: Look, I know that this is difficult for you to understand..but I cannot abandon this work now. It is too important. Not just for me, but, believe me, for everyone. And it must come first.

Elizabeth: Before us?

Victor Frankenstein: Elizabeth... I love you so much, but...

Elizabeth: Goodbye.

Victor Frankenstein: I haven't got time to argue!

Elizabeth: Oh, isn't it convenient? Or doesn't it fit in with your plans? Don't you ever think of anything or anyone than yourself?

Ari: [[zoo] These "]s"-- What are they? This word is not familiar.

Thade: I came to see you.

Ari: Oh, how sweet. You've wasted your time.

Thade: My feelings haven't changed. I still care about you.

Ari: You only care about my father's influence. And your own ambition.

Thade: I know about the trouble you caused today. I could have you arrested.

Thade: You feel so much for these humans... yet you feel nothing for me.

Nado: We just returned from our country house.

Sandar: How was it?

Nova: Boring.

Nado: I find it relaxing being away from the bustle of the city.

Nova: There was no place to go. Nothing but trees and rocks. All you did was nap.

Nado: Exactly. Time away from politics. . . . . .is what I needed. We'd lose ourselves for days in the forest when we were young. Now I can barely climb a tree.

Sandar: Trite but true: "Youth is wasted on the young. " Oh, how did I get so old so fast?

Thade: Living with your daughter would age any ape quickly.

Sandar: You've been a stranger lately.

Thade: I apologize for my lateness, senator. I stopped to see my father.

Sandar: How's my old friend?

Thade: Slipping, I'm afraid. I'd like to see him more, but these are troubled days. The humans infest the provinces.

Ari: We encroach upon their habitat. They breed while we grow soft in our affluence.

Thade: They outnumber us four to one!

Nova: Why can't we simply sterilize them all?

Nado: The cost would be prohibitive. Although scientists tell me. . . . . .these humans carry terrible diseases.

Ari: How would we know? The army burns the bodies before they're examined. Father?

Sandar: At times, perhaps, the senate feels that the army has been. . .. . .a tad extreme.

Thade: [[Extremism] ] in defense of apes is no vice, senator! Your ideas threaten our prosperity! The human problem can't be solved with money!

Nado: We tried that once, and all we got was. .. . .a welfare state that nearly broke us.

Nova: I think the city has about as much diversity as I can handle.

Ari: This garment was made by one of my humans. And can you deny the skill? Obviously, they're capable of a real culture.

Thade: Everything in the human culture takes place below the waist.

Attar: Bow your heads! We give thanks for the fruit of the land. Bless us, holy father, who created all apes in his image. Hasten the day when you will return and bring peace to your children. Amen.

Apes: Amen.

Nado: Next you'll be telling us these beasts have a soul.

Ari: Of course they do.

Attar: [[blasphemy] The senator's daughter flirts with ].

Thade: Is there a soul in there? Do you have a towel?

Ari: I've lost my appetite.

Ari: Stop it! Who told you, you could throw stones at humans?

Gorilla kid: My father

Ari: Did he? He's wrong, very wrong. You can tell him for me I said so.

Gorilla kid: Human lover!

Ari: It's disgusting the way we treat humans. Demeans us as much as them.

King George VI: [to the tune of "Swanee River"] In this... grave hour fuck fuck fuck perhaps the most fateful in our history bugger shit shit I send to every household of my... you see "P" is always difficult, even when I'm singing.

Lionel Logue: Bounce onto it. "apeoples".

Lionel Logue: In your head now, I have a right to be bloody well heard.

King George VI: Bloody well heard, bloody well heard, bloody well heard, Bloody Well Heard, BLOODY WELL HEARD MYSELF!

Lionel Logue: Now waltz, move, get continuous motion.

King George VI: [to the tune of Tchaikovsky's "Sleeping Beauty Waltz"] For the second time in the lives of most of us we are at...

Lionel Logue: We are, take a pause.

King George VI: : Lionel, I can't do this.

Lionel Logue: Bertie, you can do it. Have a look at the last paragraph.

Queen Elizabeth: Bertie, it's time.

Lionel Logue: Myrtle!

King George VI: It's all right.

Lionel Logue: [Motioning] Bertie, over here.

King George VI: Are you all right, Logue?

Lionel Logue: Yes.

King George VI: [getting up and moving to Logue's corner] Well, shouldn't we go through? What is it?

Myrtle Logue: [lost for words] You're... You're..!

Queen Elizabeth: It's "Your Majesty" the first time. After that, it's "ma'am." As in "ham." Not "mum" as in "palm.

Lionel Logue: I haven't told her about us. Sit down, relax.

Queen Elizabeth: I'm told that your husband calls my husband "Bertie," and my husband calls your husband "Lionel." I trust you won't call me "Liz?

Myrtle Logue: [nervously curtsying] Your Majesty, you may call me "Mrs. Logue," ma'am.

Queen Elizabeth: [holding out her hand to shake] Very nice to meet you, Mrs. Logue.

King George VI: Logue, we can't stay here all day.

Lionel Logue: Yes we can. I have to choose the right moment.

King George VI: Logue, you're being a coward.

Lionel Logue: You're damn right.

King George VI: [Getting up and opening the door] Get out there, man!

Lionel Logue: [leaving the office] Hello, Myrtle, darling. You're early. I believe you two have met. But I don't think you know... King George VI.

King George VI: It's very nice to meet you.

Myrtle Logue: [nervously curtsying again] Will their Majesties be staying to dinner?

Queen Elizabeth: [seeing her unease] We would love to, such a treat, but alas... a previous engagement. What a pity.

Queen Elizabeth: [to Bertie] You know, I refused your first two marriage proposals not because I didn't love you, but because I couldn't bear the idea of a royal life. Couldn't bear the idea of a life of tours, duty, and... well, a life that really no longer to be my own. But then I thought, he stammers so beautifully, they'll leave us alone.

Queen Elizabeth: [to Winston Churchill, on the hold that Wallis Simpson seems to have on Edward VIII] Apparently she has certain skills - acquired at an establishment in Shanghai.

Thénardier: Jean Valjean - the old con. You pay up and I'll say where he's gone.

Marius: [handing Thénardier money] Not so loud! Here's for you. God forgive us the things that we do.

Madame Thénardier: How's about some extra on a day so glad. Our little orphan girl, she hasn't done so bad. Raised in a convent, cash to spare - we want our share.

Thénardier: [Marius hands over yet more money to Madame Thénardier] Quite the little nun, ain't she!

Marius: [Marius punches Thénardier across the face. He falls through a door. Marius bends down to Thénardier who is almost unconscious] Where is he?

Thénardier: The convent.

Madame Thénardier: Wait a bit! Know that face! Ain't the world a remarkable place!

Thénardier: Men like me don't forget. You're the bastard that borrowed Colette!

Madame Thenardier: Cosette!

Thenardier: Whatever.

Jean Valjean: What is this? Are you mad? No, Monsieur, you don't know what you say!

Thénardier: You know me! I know you!

Madame Thénardier: And you'll pay what I'm due.

Thénardier: And you’d better dig deep!

Madame Thénardier: ‘Cause she doesn’t come cheap!

Thénardier: Babet, Brujon!

Éponine: It's the police! Disappear! Run for it! It's Javert!

Jean Valjean: Cosette!

Cosette: Papa...

Mrs. Lovett: Mr. T, you didn't! You're barking mad! Killing a man what done ya no harm!

Sweeney Todd: He recognized me from the old days. Tried to blackmail me. Half me earnings.

Mrs. Lovett: [relieved] Oh, well that's a different matter then. For a moment there I thought you lost your marbles. Ugh! All that blood. Poor bugger. Oh well!

Mrs. Lovett: [puts the money in her cleavage] Well, waste not, want not!

Sweeney Todd: NOOOO!!!! Would no one have mercy on her?

Mrs. Lovett: So it is you. Benjamin Barker?

Sweeney Todd: Where's Lucy? Where's my wife?

Mrs. Lovett: She poisoned herself, arsenic from the apothecary round the corner. I tried to stop her, but she wouldn't listen to me. He's got your daughter.

Sweeney Todd: He? Judge Turpin?

Mrs. Lovett: Adopted her like his own.

Sweeney Todd: [bitterly] Fifteen years sweating, and living hell, for a false charge. Fifteen years dreaming I might come home to a wife and child.

Mrs. Lovett: Well, I can't say the years have been particularly kind to you, Mr. Barker.

Sweeney Todd: No, not Barker. That man is dead. It's Todd now. Sweeney Todd... and he will have his revenge.

Sweeney Todd: You have a room over the shop, don't you? If times are so hard, why don't you rent it out?

Mrs. Lovett: Oh no, not up there. Haven't been there in years. People think it's haunted.

Sweeney Todd: Haunted?

Mrs. Lovett: Yeah. And who's to say they're wrong? You see, years ago, something happened up there. Something not very nice.

Mrs. Lovett: We could have a life, us two. Maybe not like I dreamed. Maybe not like you remember. But we could get by.

Mrs. Lovett: Trust me, dearie, it's gonna take a lot more than ale to wash that taste out.

Ella: Fairy godmother?

Fairy Godmother: Yes, what?

Ella: My dress. I can't go in this dress. Can you mend it?

Fairy Godmother: Mend it? No-no, I'll turn it into something new.

Ella: Oh no, please don't. This was my mother's, and... and I'd like to wear it when I go to the palace. It's almost like - taking her with me.

Fairy Godmother: I understand. But I don't think she'd mind if I - gee it up a bit? Wouldn't mind a nice blue?

Ella: [whispering] No.

Fairy Godmother: [smiles in satisfaction] There.

Ella: It's beautiful! She'd love it.

Fairy Godmother: And so Kit and Ella were married. And I can tell you, as her fairy godmother, that they were counted to be the fairest and kindest rulers the kingdom had known. And Ella continued to see the world not as it is, but as it could be, if only you believe in courage, and kindness, and occasionally, just a little bit... of magic.

Fairy Godmother: Forgiven or not, Cinderella's stepmother and her daughters would soon leave with the Grand Duke, and never set foot in the kingdom again.

Fairy Godmother: [after transforming into her true form] That's better.

Fairy Godmother: I'm your Hairy Dogfather. I mean, Fairy Godmother!

Mr. Bucket: [reading the golden ticket] Greetings to you, the lucky finder of this golden ticket from Mr. Willy Wonka. I shake you warmly by the hand. For now, I do invite you to come to my factory, and be my guest for one whole day.

Violet: [reading] I, Willy Wonka, will conduct you around the factory myself, showing you everything there is to see.

Augustus: [reading] Afterwards, when it is time to leave, you will be escorted home by a procession of large trucks, each one filled with all the chocolate you could ever eat.

Veruca: [reading] And remember, one of you lucky five children will receive an extra prize beyond your wildest imagination. Now, here are your instructions:

Mike: [reading] On the first of February, you must come to the factory gates at 10:00 A.M. sharp. You're allowed to bring one member of your family to look after you. Till then, Willy Wonka.

Mrs. Bucket: The first of February. That's tomorrow!

Grandpa Joe: Wouldn't it be something, Charlie, to open a bar of candy and find a Golden Ticket inside?

Charlie: I know. But I only get one bar a year. For my birthday.

Mrs. Bucket: Well, it's your birthday next week.

Grandma Josephine: You have as much chance as anybody does.

Grandpa George: Balderdash. The kids who're going to find the Golden Tickets are the ones who can afford to buy candy bars every day. Our Charlie gets only one a year. He doesn't have a chance.

Grandma Josephine: Everyone has a chance, Charlie.

Grandpa George: Mark my words. The kid who finds the first ticket will be fat, fat, fat!

Rufus Scrimgeour: [First lines] These are dark times, there is no denying. Our world has perhaps faced no greater threat than it does today. But I say this to our citizenry: We, ever your servants, will continue to defend your liberty and repel the forces that seek to take it from you! Your Ministry remains...strong.

Bill Weasley: Mad-Eye's dead. Mundungus took one look at Voldemort and disapparated.

Ollivander: [while being tortured by Voldemort] I believed a different wand would work, I swear!

Neville Longbottom: [Confronting Death Eaters on the train; [w:Harry Potter (character)|he] Hey, losers, ] isn't here.

Xenophilius Lovegood: [draws a line; draws a circle; draws a triangle] The Elder Wand, the most powerful wand ever made. The Resurrection Stone. The Cloak of Invisibility. Together, they make the Deathly Hallows. Together, they make one master of death.

Lucius Malfoy: [To Scabior] You dare to talk to me like that IN MY OWN HOUSE?!

Bellatrix Lestrange: [Ordering Narcissa to put both Harry and Ron in the cellar; To Hermione] Cissy, put the boys in the cellar! I want to have a little conversation with this one, girl-to-girl!
