• H. Arthur King : What's going on here?

  Pop Kwimper : I reckon you're from the government and I will say it's about time.

• Pop Kwimper : I'm mighty near out of patience with this kind of government.

• Pop Kwimper : I'll take care of the brainwork. You young folks, you take care of the work-work.

  Toby Kwimper : Well, maybe so, maybe not.

  Pop Kwimper : No maybe about it.

• Holly Jones : Don't you worry, Pop. We'll manage.

  Pop Kwimper : Ain't nobody can fret a family got its own private john. Nobody.

• Toby Kwimper : Get all the shopping done?

  Pop Kwimper : I think so.

  Holly Jones : Did you have enough money for everything?

  Pop Kwimper : Yep, and a couple of luxury items, too. I went to a junkyard and I bought us a john.

  Holly Jones : [admiringly]  Ohhh.

  Toby Kwimper : It sure is, Pop.

• Pop Kwimper : They threw dead fish in our water barrel, cut loose our rowboats from their moorings, and somebody dropped a green paint bomb in the john while it was occupied. By me.

• Pop Kwimper : That Miss Claypoole there, she went after Toby like he come with green coupons. She was leaning on him, she was tickling him, she was kissing him. And when he paid her no never mind, she set out to give us what hell ain't got no fury like.

• Pop Kwimper : This here is our Sheriff and he's gonna arrest this woman for snitching our kids. We're gonna get those kids back or she's gonna get locked up in the john. Eh, prison, I mean.

• H. Arthur King : As a public servant, I must tell you again. This whole area was put in for the public's benefit.

  Pop Kwimper : How can you get your hat on with your head so crooked? Do you think the people is one thing and the public is another thing? You're like every department jackass I ever knowed. You do nothing for a single, solitary soul, and that is because you're pretending you're doing something for everybody. For the public. Who do you think the public is but me and him and her?
