Ooooh! Coward yourself! You ain't no lady. No, Miss. That's what my poor old Mother would say to you, if my poor old Mother was to hear you. Whose boat is this, anyway? I asked you on board 'cause I was sorry for you on account of your losing your brother and all. What you get for feeling sorry for people! Well, I ain't sorry no more, you crazy, psalm-singing, skinny old maid!

The African Queen quotes
Page 3 of 3Pinch me, Rosie. Here we are, going down the river like Anthony and Cleopatra on that barge! I'll never forget the way you looked going over the falls - head up, chin out, hair blowing in the wind - the living picture of a hero-eyne!
There ain't nobody in Africa except yours truly who can get up a good head of steam on the old African Queen.
Things are never so bad they can't be made worse.
What a time we've had, Rosie. What a time. We'll never lack for stories to tell our grandchildren, will we?
What I said about having to get out and carry this old boat was meant to be a joke. It don't look like a joke now.
You're the bravest man that ever lived.
