Quotes

Chihiro:I finally get a bouquet and it's a goodbye present. That's depressing.

'Chihiro:[To her parents before realizing they have become pigs] Come on, quit eating, let's get out of here!

• I'm see-through!

• [To Haku, grabbing his arm] Don't leave me, I don't want to be alone!

• It's a bath house...

• It's just...a bad dream! Wake up, wake up...

• [To Yubaba] I'm not leaving until you give me a job!

• Hey Lin, what's a foreman?

• I think he needs help! It looks like there's a thorn in his side!

• [as Bo is twisting her arm] That hurts! Listen, someone very important to me is badly hurt. Now will you please let go of me?

• [To Bo, holding out the palm of her hand, which has blood on it] Germs! See, I've got germs!

• [To one of Yubaba's shrunken heads] Shut your mouth!

• Open your mouth... [Forces Haku's mouth open while he's in dragon form] Got it. Now swallow! [Holds his mouth shut as he thrashes around]

• [Approaching a giant No Face] I was saving this for my parents, but I think you'd better have it. [Throws the leftover medicine into his mouth]

• Haku, I've just remembered something. I think it might help you...when I was little, I dropped my shoe into a river. When I tried to get it back, I fell in. I thought I would drown, but the river carried me to shore. I think that was you! And I think that your real name is Kohaku river!

Haku

• You shouldn't be here. Get out of here, now!

• Three days of eating our food and her smell will go away. And if she doesn't work hard, roast her, boil her, do whatever you want. Now get back to work!

• [To Chihiro as she's sleeping] Meet me at the bridge. Come alone.

• Don't talk to me. Address me as "Master" Haku.

• That bird is looking for you.

• [To Chihiro, smiling] I've known you since you were very small.

• Haku: Where is Lin?
• Lin: [referring to Chihiro] What? Don't you dump her on me!
• Haku: You said you wanted an assistant.

• Komaji: Ah, Haku, you're awake. How are you feeling?
• Haku: I'm fine. Where is Sen?

• [To Yubaba] You don't seem to have noticed that something precious to you has been replaced.

• You did it, Chihiro! I remember. I was the spirit of the Kohaku River.

Yubaba

• Aren't you even going to knock? You're the most pathetic little girl I've ever seen.

• [Upset] Oh, dear, you woke up the baby!

• Ohh, your name's Chihiro? What a pretty name! [uses magic to steal the kanji of Chihiro's name] And it belongs to ME now.

• Sen, you did it! We've made so much money!

• [sounding annoyed] Oh, Haku's bleeding all over the carpet. Get him out of here, he'll be dead soon anyway.

• [referring to No Face] Enough's enough! I don't care if he's rich, this nonsense has got to stop!

• [To Haku] Don't get fresh with me, young man.

• What?! Zeniba?

• [To Bo, sounding disappointed] But a deal's a deal, sweetie! I get to give Sen one final test!

• [after Chihiro completes her challenge] All right, fine, you win, now get out of my sight!
