Delia Deetz quotes from Beetlejuice (1988)

Delia

I can't believe we're eating Cantonese. Is there no Szechuan up here?

Lydia

I plan to have a stroke from the amount of MSG that's in this food.

Delia

This is our first meal in this house, so why don't we all do our little private parts to make it a pleasant one?

Charles

Don't bait your mother, Pumpkin. As soon as we get settled, we'll build you a darkroom in the basement.

Lydia

My whole life is a darkroom. One. Big. Dark. Room.

Delia

So you were miserable in New York City, and now you're going to be miserable out here in the sticks. At least someone's life hasn't been upheaved.

Lydia

They don't wanna come down.

Delia

Charles...

Otho

Why not?

Lydia

I think the reason is, is that they were trying to scare you away, and you didn't get scared.

Delia

Please, they're dead. It's a little late to be neurotic.
