- I can't believe it. You and Dad get paid to write about plants, and you hate dirt.
- (Singing)Oh my twitchy witchy girl, i think you are so nice, I give you bowls of porridge and I give you bowls of ice...creeeeaam. I give you lots of kisses, I give you lots of hugs, but I never give you sandwiches with grease and worms and mung...beans
- EVIL WITCH!! I'M NOT SCARED!!''

- Octopus Toy: Yeah! I wanna hug your face!
[edit] Dialogue
- Coraline: I almost fell down a well, yesterday, Mom.
- Other Mother: You know I love you.
- Coraline: You...[braces herself] have a very funny way of showing it.
- Mr. Bobinsky: Caroline, wait! The mice asked me to give you message.
- Coraline: The jumping mice?
- Mr. Bobinsky: They are saying, "Do not go through little door." Do you know such a thing?
- Coraline: The one behind the wallpaper? But it's all bricked up.
- Mr. Bobinsky: Ah. So sorry, is nothing. Sometimes mice are little mixed up. They even get your name wrong, you know? They call you "Coraline" instead of "Caroline." Not "Caroline" at all! Maybe I work them too hard.
- Wybie: The (tilts his head) Cat? Uh, okay, I'll just tell grandma (hops over Coraline's bed and heads for the exit) that you couldn't find the doll...
- Coraline: You're NOT LISTENING TO ME!
- Wybie: That's 'cause you're CRAZY! Aahhh! (almost gets hit with a shoe)
- Coraline: You creep!
- Wybie: CRAZY! (hops on motorcycle and speeds off)
- Coraline: CRAZY?! YOU'RE THE JERKWAD THAT GAVE ME THE DOLL!!
- Coraline: [about the Other Mother] Why does she want me?
- Cat: She wants something to love, I think...something that isn't her. [pauses] Or maybe she'd just love something to eat.
- Coraline: Eat? That's ridiculous, mothers don't eat...daughters.
- Cat: I don't know. How do you taste? [chuckles]
- Other Mother: You came and you brought vermin with you.
- Coraline: No I brought a friend.
- Other Mother: You know I love you.
- Coraline: Well you have a very funny way of showing it.
