Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory
26 quotes
"If the good Lord had intended us to walk, he wouldn't have invented roller skates."
"And now, details on the sudden announcement that has captured the attention of entire world. Hidden among the countless billions of Wonka Bars are five gold tickets. And to the five people who find them will come the most fabulous prize one could wish for: a lifetime supply of chocolate. And as if this were not enough, each winner before he receives his prize will be personally escorted through the top secret chocolate factory by the mythical Willy Wonka himself. The amount of chocolate involved in this competition has relighted the imagination to incite candy eaters and all citizens around the world. Already, we have reports coming in that the response is phenomenal. Wonka Bars are beginning to disappear from candy store shelves at a rate to boggle the mind. Truly, it is incredible the way that Wonkamania has descended upon the globe. While the world searches, we watch and wait, wondering where the pursuit will lead, and how long the spirit of man will hold up under the strain."
"We begin with five Golden Tickets. Like five lucky bolts of lightning ready to strike without notice at any point on the map. No one knew where, no one knew when the first one would hit, but as you all know, last night we got our answer. While we in America slept, the first Golden Ticket was found in the small town of Duselheim, Germany. We've been waiting several hours for the follow-up story, and we're finally ready with a live report."
"Four down and one to go, and someplace out there, another lucky person is moving closer and closer to finding the last of the most sought-after prizes in history. Though we cannot help but envy him, whoever he is, and we might be tempted to be bitter in our losing, we must remember there are many more important things...many more important things. Offhand, I can't think of what they are, but I'm sure there must be something. And now for tomorrow's weather, and..."
"That's it!! THAT'S IT!! It's ALL over! The Wonka contest is all over! The fifth and final ticket has been found, and we've got a live report coming in directly, now, from Paraguay, South America!"
"Tinker: [quoting William Allingham's poem "The Fairies"] Up the airy mountain, and down the rushy glen/We dare not go hunting, for fear of little men. Nobody ever goes in. (pointing at Wonka's factory) And nobody ever comes out!"
"Computer Operator: Gentlemen, I know how anxious you've all been during these last few days, but now I think I can safely say that your time and money have been well-spent. We're about to witness the Greatest Miracle of the Machine Age. Based on the Revolutionary Computonian Law of Probability, this machine will tell us the precise location of the 3 remaining Golden Tickets. (pushes buttons on the machine; the machine prints a response) It says: "I won't tell! That would be cheating." (pushes the buttons on the machine again) I am now telling the computer that if it will tell me the correct answer, I will gladly share with it the grand prize. (the machine prints out another response) He says: "What would a computer do with a lifetime supply of chocolate?" (sighs, then pushes the buttons once again, angrily) I am now telling the computer EXACTLY what he can do with a lifetime supply of chocolate!!"
"Mr. Turkentine: I've just decided to switch our Friday schedule to Monday, which means that the test we take each Friday on what we learned during the week will now take place on Monday before we've learned it. But since today is Tuesday, it doesn't matter in the slightest. Pencils ready!"
"It's everybody's non-pollutionary, anti-institutionary, pro-confectionery factory of fun!"
"It's Scrumdiddlyumptious!"
"Your golden ticket to imagination and adventure!"
"Charlie is let loose in the chocolate factory and every kid's dream comes true."
"Enter a world of pure imagination."
