Betelgeuse (Beetlejuice)
"Let's turn on the juice and see what shakes loose."
"Ah.
Well... I attended Juilliard... I'm a graduate of the Harvard business school. I travel quite extensively. I lived through
the Black Plague and had a pretty good time during that. I've seen the Exorcist about a hundred and sixty-seven times, and
it keeps getting funnier every single time I see it...not to mention the fact that you're talking to a dead guy...now what
do you think? You think I'm qualified? "
"I'm the ghost with the most, babe."
"It's showtime."
"Well,
guess I'm next. About time, too. I have a photo shoot with GQ in about an hour and a half. They've been trying to get me for
weeks. Some underwear thing or something..."
"These aren't my rules. Come to think of it, I don't have any rules."
Charles Deetz "And look at that kitchen. You're finally going to be able to cook
a decent meal."
"Oh, sounds like Lydia got an "A" on the math test."
Delia Deetz "Lydia, I have a chance to teach you something here. You have got to
take the upper hand in all situations or people, whether they're dead or alive, will walk all over you."
"I will live
with you in this hellhole, but I must express myself. If you don't let me gut out this house and make it my own, I will go
insane and I will take you with me."
"Please, they're dead. It's a little late to be neurotic."
Lydia Deetz
"Maybe you can relax in a haunted house, but I can't."
"My life
is a dark room. One big dark room."
"I myself am... strange and unusual."
