Quotes |
Maude Marley:
I always did like a big entrance, didn't I? How's tricks, Ebenita? Ms. Ebenita Scrooge: Maude? Maude Marley: You haven't said a word about my outfit. Ms. Ebenita Scrooge: Oh, it can't be Maude. She's dead. I buried her. Maude Marley: And rather hastily, I might add. Afraid I might come back to life? Reclaim my possessions? Now I can't. [Ebenita reaches for the phone] Maude Marley: No! That line is dead, darling. Save us both time, Ebenita. I'm dead, I'm here, and I'm talking to you. Now, I'll cut to the chase. I actually need your help to rest in peace. That's all anybody ever talks about in the afterlife, how they do things differently. The grass is forever greener, but when I was alive, I lived by one question only: What's in it for me? I'll admit I was a little self-centered then, cared not a whit for the little people. That's why every year, on the anniversary of my death, I have to roam the world and see the happiness I can never share unless... Ms. Ebenita Scrooge: Yes? Maude Marley: Unless you listen to me and turn your little life around. Ms. Ebenita Scrooge: What's so little about my life? Business has never been better. I own three buildings and a house with ten rooms. Maude Marley: And how many rooms in your heart and how long will your chain of grief be when you join our miserable band? Ms. Ebenita Scrooge: I don't have to do anything. Maude Marley: No, you don't. Not if you change. My fellow ghosts will show you how. Ms. Ebenita Scrooge: More ghosts? Maude Marley: Yes, but tightly organized on the other side. Actually, you'd probably love it for a while. Tight schedules, time clocks, the works. However, the only problem is it never ends. It goes around, and around and around! Ms. Ebenita Scrooge: Get away! Maude Marley: Anyway, expect your first visitor when the clock strikes midnight, your second visitor at one, and your third at the stroke of two. Regular as clockwork. Ms. Ebenita Scrooge: What is the point of all of this? Maude Marley: Change, Ebenita, for your sake as well as mine. Either get me out of this or join the crowd forever! Ms. Ebenita Scrooge: Ghosts, you can have this place. I'm going to be someplace else! See more » |
