Quotes
-
Sgt. Demetrio Lopez Garcia : You know, Don Diego, I am still a young man. It is the time of life I should get married and settle down, but no woman will take me seriously. It's not fair, Don Diego. Ah, maybe I am a little overweight, but you know what they say: a fat man always has a sense of humor.
Cpl. Reyes : With a stomach like yours, you need a sense of humor.
Sgt. Demetrio Lopez Garcia : You are addressing your Comandante!
Cpl. Reyes : All right, Sargeant.
Sgt. Demetrio Lopez Garcia : Sargeant! Don Diego, it's no use. To my own men, I am just a little Sargeant.
Cpl. Reyes : Big fat Sargeant.

Don Diego de la Vega : Well sergeant, perhaps the mistake in your thinking is, you only think of yourself as a sergeant! You must think of yourself as the commandante. A man is what he thinks!
Sgt. Demetrio Lopez Garcia : That is philosophy, Don Diego? I am what I think. I think I am the commandante!
[singing]
Sgt. Demetrio Lopez Garcia : I'm commandante of the pueblo. I am, because I think so. Every inch a handsome soldier, trim of hip and broad of shoulder.
Cpl. Reyes : How do you know?
Sgt. Demetrio Lopez Garcia : Because I think so!
Cpl. Reyes : Ho ho, because he thinks so.
Sgt. Demetrio Lopez Garcia : I am the man who'll capture Zorro. I am, because I think so. Though the Fox is very wily, I'll pursue him oh so slyly.
Barmaid : How do you know?
Sgt. Demetrio Lopez Garcia : Because I think so!
Barmaid : Ho ho, because he thinks so.
Sgt. Demetrio Lopez Garcia : Now in battle I have won so many battles that my chest can't hold another single one I fear.
Barmaid : The only kind of medal that you'll ever get will be for terrific feat in running to the rear!
Sgt. Demetrio Lopez Garcia : I am the man the ladies love so. I am, because I think so. Senoritas can't resist me, they're my slaves once they have kissed me.
Don Diego de la Vega : Now is that so, because he thinks so?
Barmaid : No no, not 'till he shrinks so!
[mimes García slimming down]
Sgt. Demetrio Lopez Garcia : No no, I cannot shrink so!
