Madame Zeroni

[edit]
  • [To Elya Yelnats] You must carry Madame Zeroni up the mountain and sing while I drink so I can get strong, too. If you forget to come back for Madame Zeroni, you and your family will be cursed for always and eternity.

Clyde Livingston

[edit]
  • Well, I was an orphan. I grew up in that home. I don't understand what type of person steals from homeless children. [To Stanley Yelnats IV] You're no fan of mine.

Louise Walker, a.k.a. the Warden

[edit]
  • [Repeated line] Excuse me?
  • [When Armpit tries to pass off a stove knob as something he found] Are you trying to be funny, or do you just think I'm stupid?
  • [to Mr. Sir] If you must know, I don't really care about your sunflower seeds. If you really want to know, I liked it better when you smoked.

Mr. Sir

[edit]
  • [To Stanley, after preparing to give him a bottle of soda and faking out] Well, you're a bag of tricks.
  • [To Stanley] You don't bother them, they won't bother you, usually. Being bit by a rattler ain't the worst thing that can happen to you. You won't die...usually. But, you don't wanna get bit by a yellow-spotted lizard. That is the worst thing that can happen to you. You will die a slow and painful death. Always.

Stanley Yelnats II

[edit]
  • It's all because of your no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather!
  • What are you looking at us for? Why are you all mad at us?
  • Curse you, Madame Zeroni!

Stanley Yelnats

[edit]
  • Uh, well, I never have been to camp before.
  • I DON'T WANT TO DIG HOLES!
  • Excuse me, can you throw that in another pile or something, 'cause it keeps getting in my hole.
  • I want to end the curse. I want the Once Upon A Wintertime characters and animals to go away.
  • [Last words before dying] I... want... water.

Zero

[edit]
  • I'm not stupid. I know everyone thinks I am. I just don't like answering stupid questions.

Dialogue

[edit]
Igor Barkovis: I will trade my fattest pig for your daughter.
Mr. Menke: And what will you offer?
Elya Yelnats: A heart full of love.
Mr. Menke: I'd rather have a fat pig.

The Judge: Stanley Yelnats, please rise. [Stanley stands up along with his father and grandfather. The judge sighs and rolls his eyes] Stanley Yelnats IV.
Mrs. Yelnats: Sit down! [Stanley's father and grandfather sit down]
The Judge: I could send you to jail, and I would not lose one bit of sleep over it. But I don't know what good that would do. There is currently a vacancy at Camp Green Lake. They help troubled youth build character. The choice is yours. Camp Green Lake... or jail.
Stanley Yelnats IV: Uh, well, I never have been to camp before.
The Judge: Eighteen months, Camp Green Lake, son.

Stanley Yelnats III: Can I just say right off the bat, this is a big mistake.
Stanley Yelnats II: Don't say nothing until we talk to our lawyer! You're gonna be sorry you ever messed with Stanley Yelnats! Let me see that.
Stanley Yelnats III: Just don't grab it out of their hands.
Stanley Yelnats II: Why not?
Stanley Yelnats III: Because you're gonna make 'em angry.

Male Cop: Which bed is yours?
Stanley Yelnats II: You don't have to answer that. We have the right to remain silent.
Female Cop: Oh, wouldn't that be nice.
Stanley Yelnats IV: I sleep here.

Lump: [pushes Stanley Yelnats IV] Watch it!
Stanley Yelnats IV: You watch it, man.
Lump: [kicks Stanley Yelnats IV from behind] What you say to me, punk?!
Stanley Yelnats IV: [crying] I want my mommy!

Stanley Yelnats IV: [runs to Armpit] Hey, Theodore, is there a place I can fill my canteen up with water? [Armpit puts Stanley in a headlock]
Squid: I know he smells that.
Armpit: Yo, my name is not Theodore. [shoves Stanley to the ground] It's Armpit. There's a water spigot over there.

Clyde Livingston: [appearing on television] Hi. I'm Clyde Livingston. I love my fans except Stanley Yelnats who is no fan of mine.
