Beauty and the Beast 1991 quotes, page 5

Gaston

What's the matter, Beast, too kind and gentle to fight back?

Cogsworth

You What?

Beast

You- You came back

Once upon a time, in a faraway land, a young Prince lived in a shining castle. Although he had everything his heart desired, the Prince was spoiled, selfish, and unkind. But then, one winter's night, an old beggar-woman came to the castle and offered him a single rose in return for shelter from the bitter cold. Repulsed by her haggard appearance, the Prince sneered at the gift and turned the old woman away. But she warned him not to be deceived by appearances, for beauty is found within. And when he dismissed her again, the old woman's ugliness melted away to reveal a beautiful Enchantress. The Prince tried to apologize, but it was too late, for she had seen that there was no love in his heart; and as punishment, she transformed him into a hideous Beast --- and placed a powerful spell on the castle and all who lived there. Ashamed of his monstrous form, the Beast concealed himself inside his castle, with a magic mirror as his only window to the outside world. The rose she had offered was truly an enchanted rose, which would bloom until his 21st year. If he could learn to love another, and earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell, then the spell would be broken. If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast for all time. As the years passed, he fell into despair and lost all hope. For who could ever learn to love a Beast?

Beast

There's a stranger in here.

Chip

Do I still have to sleep in the cupboard?

Belle

Ahhh, Isn't this amazing? It's my favorite part because, you see, here's where she meets Prince Charming. But she won't discover that it's him till chapter three.

Gaston

And every last inch of me's covered in HAIR!

Gaston

Here in town there's only she, who is beautiful as me, so I'm making plans to woo and marry Belle!

Gaston

I use antlers in all of my dec-orating!

Gaston

I'm especially good at expectorating...

Belle

Little town, it's a quiet village. Everyday like the one before. Little town, full of little people, waking up to say...

Gaston

Screw your courage to the sticking place!

Mrs. Potts

Tale as old as time, true as it can be. Barely even friends, then somebody bends unexpectedly [...] Beauty and the Beast!

Belle

There's something sweet and almost kind. But he was mean and he was coarse and unrefined, but now he's dear and so unsure, I wonder why I didn't see it there before.
