Ratatouille quotes

  • Skinner: [growling] What are you playing at?

    Linguini: [uncertain] Um, uh... am I still fired?

    Colette: You can't fire him.

    Skinner: What?

    Colette: LeClaire likes it, yeah? She made a point of telling you so. if she write a review to that effect and find out you fired the cook responsible?

    Skinner: He's a garbage boy.

    Colette: Who made something she liked! How can we claim to represent the name of Gusteau if we don't uphold his most cherished belief?

    Skinner: And what belief is that, Mademoiselle Tatou?

    Colette: Anyone can cook.

    [pause, Skinner looks around at the other cooks, who are smiling with approval]

    Skinner: Perhaps I have been a bit harsh on our new garbage boy. He has taken a bold risk, and we should reward that, as Chef Gusteau would have. If he wishes to swim in dangerous waters, who are we to deny him?

  • Gusteau: You were escaping.

    Remy: Oh, yeah.
