"From what I can see, no matter what system of government we have, there will always be leaders and always be followers. It's like the road out in front of my house. It's on a steep hill. Every day I watch the cars climbing up. Some go lickety-split up that hill on high, some have to shift into second, and some sputter and shake and slip back to the bottom again. Same cars, same gasoline, yet some make it and some don't. And I say the fellas who can make the hill on high should stop once in a while and help those who can't. That's all I'm trying to do with this money. Help the fellas who can't make the hill on high. It's like I'm out in a big boat, and I see one fellow in a rowboat who's tired of rowing and wants a free ride, and another fellow who's drowning. Who would you expect me to rescue? Mr. Cedar - who's just tired of rowing and wants a free ride? Or those men out there who are drowning? Any ten year old child will give you the answer to that."

"When the servant comes in, Mr. Hallor, I'm going to ask him to show you to the door. Many people don't know where it is."

"People here are funny. They work so hard at living they forget how to live. Last night, after I left you, I was walking along and - and lookin' at the tall buildings, and I got to thinking about what Thoreau said. 'They created a lot of grand palaces here, but they forgot to create the noblemen to put in them.' I'd rather have Mandrake Falls."

"What puzzles me is why people seem to get so much pleasure out of, out of hurting each other? Why don't they try liking each other once in a while?"

"The Little family just for bigger."

"Three days ago? Stuart's parents died in a tragic cream-mushroom-soup incident years ago. I just told you."

"It's out of the question and it's against the rules. Besides, It's very hard to track mouse families. They're not very good with paperwork."

"Mr. and Mrs. Little, we try to discourage couples from adopting outside of their own...species. It rarely works out."

"Your new bedroom, Stuart."

"Letting you go was the toughest choice we ever made."

"TELL HIM THE TRUTH!"

"But I can learn. We're a family now. And there's a lot of adjustments we'll have to make."

"I'm gonna miss that boy."

"I'm gonna miss that car."

"Fairy tales are made-up stories, Stuart. This is real. This is about where you belong."

"There's something you'll never be able to give him, because you're human. No offence!"

"We're his parents."

"Taxi! What does a mouse have to do to get a cab in this city?"

"Dog paddle? I'd rather drown. And I had my fur just the way I like it."

"Oh, no. You wanna do water, hire a spaniel."

"Don't go wrong way! He's going backwards! He's a hell of a driver!"

"Where is he? Did he fall in the water?"

"Yeah, where you going, Murray? Um, Stuart. What's his name?"

"I'll be licking myself for days!"

"He's hogging the mouse. He ain't sharing."

"Look. It's mouse on a stick. I love mouse on a stick."

"Did you see that? Damn. Nobody could've survived that. Right, boss?"

"What's your hurry, Murray?"

"Hey, it's me, Lucky. I just heard from the Brooklyn Cats. Bad news: the Stouts squealed."

"Smokey! Hey, Smokey!"

"Well, maybe we should get some, and then come back for another race."

"[to Anton] Yeah. You all done being a jerk?"
