Babe (film)

"[first lines] This is a tale about an unprejudiced heart, and how it changed our valley forever. There was a time not so long ago when pigs were afforded no respect, except by other pigs. They lived their whole lives in a cruel and sunless world. In those days, pigs believed that the sooner they grew large and fat, the sooner they would have to be taken to Pig Paradise - a place so wonderful that no pig had ever thought to come back."

"There are many perfectly nice cats in the world, but every barrel has its bad apples, and so it is well for everyone to pay attention to the old adage: "Beware of the bad cat holding a grudge.""

"[as the crowd cheers for Babe's remarkable performance at the sheepdog trials] And so it was that in all the celebration, in all the hubbub of noise and excitement, there were two figures who stood silent and still. Side by side."

"If I had words to make a day for you I'd sing you a morning golden and true I would make this day last for all time Then fill the night deep in moonshine"

"[repeated line] "That'll do, pig. That'll do"."

"Christmas dinner, yeah. Dinner means death. Death means carnage! Christmas means carnage! Christmas means carnage!"

"The fear's too much for a duck. It-It eats away at the soul! There must be kinder dispositions in far-off, gentler lands."

"[laughs in joy] The pig did it! The pig did it! The perfect score!"

"The Bosses only eat stupid animals like sheep and ducks and chickens."

"[to Babe] It's only your first try. But you're treating them like equals. They're sheep; they're inferior."

"Maa: [about Babe] You see, ladies? A heart of gold."

"Sheep's password: Baa-ram-ewe. Baa-ram-ewe. To your breed, your fleece, your clan be true. Sheep be true. Baa-ram-ewe."

"Sheep: [to Babe] Well, I wouldn't call that a bite myself. You got teeth in that floppy mouth of yours or just gums?"

"A little pig goes a long way."

"Making the movie Babe opened my eyes to the intelligence and the inquisitive personalities of pigs. These highly social animals possess an amazing capacity for love, joy and sorrow that makes them remarkably similar to our beloved canine and feline friends."

"[Babe] also inspired me to become vegan. After having worked all morning with these extraordinary animals, I'd see their relatives on the lunch table. They had ham and duck, every animal except horse. That's when I said, "I've got to try to be a vegan." And for the most part, I have been vegan since 1994."
