A Bug's Life (1998) - Quotes

Francis: Shoo, fly. Don't bother me.

Francis: To the audience we'll never have.

Francis: Let's face it. We stink.

Francis: I heard that, you twig!

Francis: Anytime, pal! I'm gonna pick the hairs out of your head one by one! You name the place! Yeah, cause when you get there, YOU ARE DEAD!

Francis: Judging by your breath, you must have been buzzing around a dung heap all day!

Francis: SO, being a ladybug automatically makes me a girl! Is that it, fly boy? Huh?

Heimlich: Someday, I will be a beautiful butterfly, and then everything will be better.

Queen: Oh, now why didn't I think of that? Oh! Because it's suicide!

Queen: Perfect? What's so perfect?

Queen: But, Hopper, since it's almost the rainy season, we need this time to gather food for ourselvesǃ

Queen: [whistles] Okay, everyone, single file. Food to offering stone and into the anthill. Now, let's go!

Queen: [laughs.] Oh, it'll be fine. It's the same, year after year. They come, they eat, they leave. That's our lot in life. It's not a lot, but it's our life.

Queen: Just be confident, dear. You'll be fine.

Dot: No! Bad grasshopper! Bad grasshopper! Go home!

Dot: The name is Dot.

Hopper: [last words; as the bird, a real one, roars; He drops Flik; the bird seizes him; The bird caught him and holds him over to her chicks; The camera zooms in on the chicks' mouths as Hopper screams again] Are there a bunch of little girls in this one, too? Hello, girls. AAAAAH!!!! Aaaaah! Aah! Aah! Oh! A-AAAAAAAH!!! Ah! No! No! NOOO, NO, NO, NO! Aah! Aah! Aah! A-AAH-AAAH-AAAAH!!!! AAAAAAAAAH!!!! No! OH, NOOOOOOOO!!! AH! OH, NO! NO, NO, NO! AAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!

Hopper: WELL, GUESS WHAT... you just lost!

Hopper: HAVE YOU BEEN PLAYING ALL SUMMER?! YOU THINK THIS IS A GAME?!

Hopper: You are mindless, soil-shoving losers put on this Earth to serve us.

Hopper: What's the matter? You're scared of grasshoppers? You don't like Thumper?

Hopper: [first words; echoes] So, where is it? WHERE'S MY FOOD?!

Princess Atta: Leave the island?!

Princess Atta: You see, Hopper. Nature has a certain order. The ants pick the food, the ants keep the food, and the grasshoppers leave!

Princess Atta: They come, they eat, they leave. They come, they eat, they leave.

Flik: [outtakes; [Toy Story|To infinity and beyond!; laughs] ] I'm sorry, I couldn't resist. I mean, really, can y... can you blame me? Okay. Okay, let's go for real now.

Flik: You're wrong, Hopper. Ants are not meant to serve grasshoppers. I've seen these ants do great things, and year after year they somehow manage to pick food for themselves and you. So-so who is the weaker species? Ants don't serve grasshoppers! It's you who need us! We're a lot stronger than you say we are... And you know it, don't you?

Flik: Oh no, they've finished collecting the food. We've got to get the queen now. Once she's safe, we move on Gypsy's signal.

Flik: Here I go. For the colony, and for the oppressed ants everywhere!

Flik: Your Highness, don't you see? We could send someone to get help!
