More quotes by William Goldman
Anything there is that I can do for you, I will do for you anything there is that I cannot do, I will learn to do.
William Goldman
Fezzik's in trouble, bubble bubble, His brain is just not in the pink, His mind is rubble, rub-a-dub double, Because everyone needs him to think.
William Goldman
One way an author dies a little each day is when his books go out of print.
William Goldman
Buttercup's mother hesitated, then put her stew spoon down. (This was after stew, but so is everything. When the first man first clambered from the slime and made his first home on land, what he had for supper that first night was stew.)
William Goldman
Inconceivable! You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
William Goldman
You don't want to be rude but you have to be careful - there are a lot of strange people out there. (Goldman attributes this quote to Cliff Robertson.)
William Goldman
He was the mighty Fezzik, lover of rhymes, and you did not give up, no matter what.
William Goldman
I am your Prince and you will marry me, Humperdinck said. Buttercup whispered, I am your servant and I refuse. I am you Prince and you cannot refuse. I am your loyal servant and I just did. Refusal means death. Kill me then.
William Goldman
Why do you wear a mask and hood? I think everybody will in the near future, was the man in black's reply. They're terribly comfortable.
William Goldman

William Goldman
Let's look on the bright side: we're having an adventure, Fezzik, and most people live and die without being as lucky as we are.
William Goldman
Life is pain, highness. Anyone who tells you differently is selling something.
William Goldman
There’s death coming up, and you better understand this:some of the wrong people die.Be ready for it.
William Goldman
Her mother was my wife, the Count roared, loudest of all. You pathetic excuse for am money-grubbing fool, you disgrace to the face of the world. And with a shriek of disgust he turned and was gone. Guilietta was beside Inigo then, so excited. Daddy likes you, she said.
William Goldman
Anybody that says different is selling something.
William Goldman
Who are you? No one of consequence. I must know. Get used to disappointment.
William Goldman
Duhhhhhhh, tanks, Buttercup.
William Goldman
There are always too few perfect breasts in this world leave yours alone.
William Goldman
Mawwage. Mawwage is what bwings us together today.
William Goldman
Look. (Grown-ups skip this paragraph) I'm not about to tell you this book has a tragic ending. I already said in the very first line how it was my favorite in all the world. But there's a lot of bad stuff coming.
William Goldman
