[edit] Horton

C'mon guys, we're all mammals!
- To the monkeys attacking him with bananas.

A person's a person no matter how small.

I meant what I said, and I said what I meant. An elephant's faithful one hundred percent ... That's my code — my motto.

All right, I gotta get this speck up to the top of Mount Nool A.S.A.P, whatever that means, probably act swiftly awesome packaderm! I mean, how hard can that be?

I love the smell of bananas in the morning!

[edit] Sour Kangaroo

If you can't see, hear or feel something it doesn't exist. And believing in "tiny imaginary people" is just not something we do — or tolerate around here.

That Horton is a menace. He has the kids using their imagination. It's sick.

What is happening to the Jungle of Nool?! There once was a time when people were people and specks were specks. Well, I say if you can't see it, hear it, or feel it, it DOESN'T EXIST!! Our way of life is under attack! And who's leading that attack? Horton! Are we going to let troublemakers like Horton poison the minds of our children?! If Horton tells the children about worlds beyond the jungle, he makes them question authority! Which leads to defiance, Which leads to anarchy!! Are we going to let him get away with this?!

[edit] Dialogue

Horton: There's a tiny person on that speck that needs my help!
Kangaroo: Absurd! There aren't people that small!
Horton: Well, maybe, they aren't small — maybe we're big. No — think about it — what if there were someone way out there, looking down on our world right now, and to them, we're the specks...

Ned O' Malley, the Mayor of Who-ville: I have 96 daughters and 1 son.
Horton: [laughing] Whoa! Busy guy.

Morton: Kangaroo has gone nuts — bananas! She's telling everyone that you should be kicked out of Nool.
Horton: She said that? I thought we were friends.
Morton: Word is she's gone to Vlad!
Horton: Vlad? Vlad? I know two Vlads. Is it the bad Vlad — or the bunny Vlad that makes the cookies?
Morton: [sarcastic] Yeah, Horton. She's sending you a bunny with cookies. I think we can assume it's the bad Vlad!
Horton: Yeah, that's a good call.
