Horton Hears a Who! (film)

"A person's a person, no matter how small."

"[in Henry Kissinger's voice] I feel the diplomatic process is beginning to breakdown."

"I meant what I said, and I said what I meant, and an elephant's faithful one-hundred percent. That's my code, my motto."

"Come on guys, we're all mammals!"

"HOW ABOUT THIS?! IF I GET UP REAL CLOSE, CAN YOU READ ME?!"

"Hold on, Mr. Mayor. I may have to put up a fight! A frightened elephant can be very dangerous! All right, you've called down the thunder, buddy! Are you hungry for trouble? I'm an all-you-can-eat salad bar, take a bite!"

"All right, I need to get this speck up to the top of Mount Nool A.S.A.P., whatever that means. Probably "act swiftly awesome pachyderm"! I mean, how hard can that be? [sees a loose rope bridge over a deadly chasm] It's a sheer plummet to certain death."

"I love the smell of bananas in the morning!"

"Oh, hi Vlad. [Everyone gasps at this, assuming it to be Vlad Vladikoff the vulture, but it's actually the cute bunny who bakes cookies]"

"[Watching the clover about to go into the pot of boiling beezelnut oil] NO!!!"

"And most of all, I want to say thank the Mayor of Whoville who believed in me from the beginning."

"Knock-knock. [chuckles, whimpers] This is where you'd say "who's there" if there were any Whos there! Get it? "Who's there!" Heheh! [sobbing, babbling]"

"Mayor, are you there? Mayor? [slumps to the ground] Mayor! [view of the shambled city as Horton's voice echoes through the pipe] Mayor, are you there? Mayor? Mayor? [cut back to the depressed Horton] Mayor? MAAAAAAAAYOOOOOOOOOOR!"

"Horton is a giant elephant in the sky! [everyone looks up] Don't bother looking. He's invisible. And he's the one risking his life to get Whoville, which by the way is a speck on a clover, TO SAFETY!"

"[Speaking to JoJo in the Featured Photos Gallery] You know what's awesome? This is awesome. Just look at the men and women hanging on these walls. You, my boy, are part of a family legacy that spans centuries. You know what? Your grandfather was Mayor of Whoville, mm-hmm. And your great-grandmother, that's right, all the way down to your... [cut to featured photos of his ancestors, including one at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden Buffalo, which he calls "not-so-great", with the last one depicting a cave Who] ...Great-great-great-great...not-so-great...great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-greeeaat...grandfather. Someday, I hope to join them, and be one of the greats."

"[after being called a "boob" by the Chairman] He has the nerve to call somebody a boob? I would never call somebody a boob. He's a boob. Look at you. Yuck! Look at your face...and I bet you don't look so good with a stapler in your head! [throws a stapler at a painting of the Chairman, which bounces off and hits him in the face, leaving a staple implanted on his forehead, causing him to scream in pain]"

"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.[takes her son's clover he was examining after hearing Horton] Or tolerate here in the Jungle of Nool."

"[Horton suggested that he'd be able to get someone to believe him] You could do nothing of the sort, you won’t breathe a word of this lie to anybody else, especially the children, I don’t need you to poison their mind with nonsense. Our community has standards, Horton, if you want to remain a part of it, I recommend you follow them, and have a nice day."

"Horton is a menace, he has those children using their imaginations, it's sick."

"You exist! This means my husband isn't crazy. Hooray!"

"Yes! Score! Thanking you! You won't regret!"

"I've got you now, elephant."

"Chess mate. Now it's time for me to take clover and crush all the little people on it."

"What a burn on you, Horton! Ha, Ha!"

"Oh man, that is nice touch. I'm a mess of this, right? Emotional! Here come the water slide. [crying]"

"Whoa! Come on, I'm your bro. It's me you're talking to. We have history! Come on, let's not forget, I did this for free."

"You should've been seeing me. I really let elephant have it. I chase him, i torment him. And then I break him into million little elephant pieces. It was thing of beauty, really. My best work. Classic Vlad."

"It's good."

"My world is called Jessica land. Everyone worship queen Jessica because Jessica is so beautiful."

"Jessica, that was awesome."

"On the design of the movie, I really felt that Dr. Seuss was our production designer. I got to travel to Audrey Geisel’s (Dr. Seuss’ wife) home where Dr. Seuss penned many of his later works. She gave us a wonderful tour and I saw a lot of his artwork on the walls. I saw a couple of sculptures he had done from characters he had drawn. They almost looked like mounted trophies on the wall."
