We are just ourshelves

Prince Ali Ababwa once refused to free the Genie because: “Without you, I'm just Aladdin.”

Do we really need anything from outside to prove our value? Without money, I'm just ... Without family background, I'm just ... Without the degree, I'm just ... Without a pretty/handsome face , I'm just ... Hey, our nature and our value is based on our heart and wisdom but not these things!

Does Jasmine prefer those rich but rude princes, or the poor but nice Aladdin?

So don't feel inferior when you lack any of those.

Be a better man and someday there will be a Jasmine who knows your inner beauty.

Aladdin quotes

  • Sultan: Jafar, you vile betrayer!

    Iago: That's Sultan Vile Betrayer to you!

  • Princess Jasmine: [to Jafar] At least some good will come of my being forced to marry. When I am Queen, I will have the power to get rid of you.

    Sultan: Well, now. That's nice. All settled then. Now, Jasmine, getting back to this suitor business. Jasmine? Jasmine!

    [the Sultan notices that Jasmine is running out of the room, and runs after her]

    Jafar: [scowls in their direction] If only I had gotten that lamp!

    Iago: [mocking Jasmine] "I will have the power to get rid of you." Dahhh! To think we gotta keep kissing up to that chump, and his chump daughter, for the rest of our lives.

    Jafar: No, Iago. Only until she finds a chump husband. Then she'll have us banished. Or beheaded.

    JafarIago: Ew.

    Iago: Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute! Jafar, what if you were the chump husband?

    Jafar: What?

    Iago: Okay, okay. You marry the princess, all right? And and, uh, you. Then you become the sultan!

    Jafar: Marry the shrew. I become sultan. The idea has merit.

    Iago: Yes, merit. Yes! And then, we drop papa-in-law and the little woman off a cliff.

    [he dives off Jafar's staff headfirst, then hits the ground]

    Iago: "Yah. Ker-splat!"

    Jafar: [laughs] I love the way your foul little mind works!

    [both laugh evilly]
