Quotes 

• Homer Simpson : Good news, everyone! I got in a fight with the garbage men and they're cutting off our service!

  Marge Simpson : Oh, lord, now what are we going to do? Just let the trash pile up?

  Homer Simpson : Hey, I'd rather live in a dump than in a world run by snooty garbage men.

  Lisa Simpson : Dad, is this another one of those situations that could be solved by a simple apology?

  Homer Simpson : I never apologize, Lisa. I'm sorry, but that's just the way I am.

• Marge Simpson : Homer, that crazy lady who lives in our trash pile attacked me again.

  Homer Simpson : That's not the way she tells it.

• Bart Simpson : [over loud speaker]  Hey everybody, vote for my dad, Homer Simpson. If you don't he'll beat us.

  Homer Simpson : [over loud speaker]  Why you little... er... No one's gonna beat you, son.

  [under his breath, but still audible] 

  Homer Simpson : You're gonna get such a beating!

• [last lines] 

  Native American-Indian #1 : Do yourself a favour. Don't turn around.

  [camera pans across to show the old Spingfield as a huge land of rubbish and waste] 

  Native American-Indian #2 : [off-screen]  AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!

  Native American-Indian #1 : [off-screen]  I told you not to turn around.

• Marge Simpson : Homer, this has gone far enough. Will you please just apologize to the garbage men?

  Lisa Simpson : Yeah, Dad. You're always telling me and Bart to apologize.

  Homer Simpson : Yeah, but I'm always secretly disappointed when you do. Anyway, I think those garbage men are starting to crack.

  Bart Simpson : I think you're starting to crack.

  Homer Simpson : Apologize for that remark!

  Bart Simpson : No way!

  Homer Simpson : Atta-boy!

• Homer Simpson : [pushes in front of a queue]  I wanna register to run for sanitation commissioner. And tell the fat cats upstairs things are gonna change in this town.

  Clerk : Okay, but this is where you register as a sex offender.

  Moe : [arriving at the back of the queue]  Aw, jeez, there's always a line.

• Susie Smith : Okay. Camera two.

  [Homer starts pushing buttons] 

  Susie Smith : Uh, excuse me. This is a restricted area.

  Homer Simpson : Take a hike, Kojak!

  [pushes her away] 

• Homer Simpson : [Trips over the rubbish bin]  D'oh!

  Marge Simpson : [Calling from upstairs]  I heard that! You know the rule!

  Homer Simpson : Oh, but I can rebuild.

• Ned Flanders : [tiptoeing over the Simpsons' rubbish pile]  Easy, Ned. Don't breathe in.

  [some rubbish falls on his head] 

  Ned Flanders : Ow!

  Homer Simpson : Sorry, Ned. I didn't see you down there.

  [to Bart] 

  Homer Simpson : Got him.

  Ned Flanders : Uh, listen, Homer, I hate to be a fussy Freddy and all, but Maude's folks are here, and they're a tad touchy about odors.

  Homer Simpson : Then you might want to close your windows before the sun hits Diaper Hill.

  Rod Flanders : [standing on top of a huge pile of used diapers]  Look, Daddy. I'm the king of the mountain!

  Ned Flanders : Rod, get off of there!

• Townspeople : Aye!

  Mayor Quimby : And all those against horsewhipping Homer J. Simpson?

  Homer : Nay?

• Marge Simpson : Homer, you didn't beat City Hall. They picked up our trash because I wrote a letter of apology to the sanitation commissioner and signed your name. Period.

  Homer Simpson : [hurt]  You signed my name? I feel so violated.

  Marge Simpson : You've signed my name lots of times!

  Homer Simpson : But this isn't like a loan application or a will! You've signed away my dignity! And I'm going to get it back. Lisa, do I have my pants on?

  Lisa Simpson : Yes.

  Homer Simpson : Perfect.

• Mayor Quimby : Simpson, you idiot! You spent your entire year's budget in a month! Your department's broke!

  Homer Simpson : [panicking]  Uh... oh, no! Wait! I think I've got the perfect solution.

  Mayor Quimby : You'd better! 'Cause those garbage men won't work for free!

  Homer Simpson : D'oh!

• Homer Simpson : Hey Ray, cleaning out the old office, eh?

  Ray Patterson : If I hadn't already packed my letter opener, I'd give you such a stabbing!

• Costingtons Manager : Okay, people, we need to cook up a new holiday for the summer. Something with gifts, cards, assorted gougeables.

  Costingtons Woman : How about something religious? We had great penetration last spring with Christmas Two.

  Costingtons Man : Oh, I know. Spendover, like Passover, less talk, more presents.

  [Everyone starts talking at once] 

  Costingtons Manager : No, no, no! No, it's gotta be warm and fuzzy. Some like, um, "Love Day", but not so lame.

  [cut to the Simpsons home several days later] 

  Marge Simpson : Happy Love Day, everyone!

  Lisa Simpson : Come on, Mom, The stores just invented this holiday to make money.

  Homer Simpson : Lisa, don't you ruin another Love Day.

• Homer : It's like David and Goliath, only this time David won.

  [Lisa sighs] 

  Lisa's Brain : I know, I heard it too. Here's some music.

  [Piano music plays quietly. Lisa smiles contentedly] 

• Homer Simpson : Okay, before I show you, who wants to guess how I got the money?

  Bart Simpson : Dealing drugs?

  Lisa Simpson : Drugs?

  Marge Simpson : I'll have to say drugs, too.

  Homer Simpson : Close, but you're way off.

• Ray Patterson : Here's your apology back, Mr Simpson, and I'm sorry we couldn't work this out.

  Homer Simpson : Don't come off all high and mighty with me, Patterson. You can't scare me with your office and your desk and your lamp.

  Ray Patterson : I'm not trying to scare you, I'm trying to get my work done.

  Homer Simpson : Oh, oh, oh, I get it. Put on a big show for the cameras.

  Ray Patterson : What cameras? Why are you still here?

  Homer Simpson : I came to fight city hall. I want to shake things up, Patterson. Stir up some controversy, rattle a few cages.

  [Homer rattles a bird cage] 

  Ray Patterson : Hey! Stop that!

  Homer Simpson : You'll never silence me. I'm the last angry man, Patterson. A crusader for the little guy!

  [Homer rattles the bird cage again] 

  Ray Patterson : Leave the bird alone!

  Homer Simpson : Never!

  Ray Patterson : Look, Simpson, I've been elected by the voters of this city 16 years in a row. So they must think I'm doing a damn good job.

  Homer Simpson : You wanna know what I think?

  Ray Patterson : No! Nobody wants to hear the nonsensical ravings of a loudmouthed malcontent!

  Homer Simpson : Oh! Well, we'll see about that!

• Homer Simpson : My campaign is a disaster, Moe. I hate the public so much.

• Marge Simpson : How could you spend $4.6 million in a month?

  Homer Simpson : They let me sign checks with a stamp, Marge! A stamp!

• Homer Simpson : [his garbagemen are angrily demanding their paychecks]  Will cash be okay?

  Garbage Man : Will it!

  Mayor Quimby : [poking his head into the room]  Did I, uh, hear a briefcase opening?

• Homer Simpson : [Angryly carrying out the trash]  Ow, Ow, stupid trash, stinky, hate world, revenge soon, take out on everyone

  [screams] 

  Homer Simpson : GARBAGE WATER! Ohhhh.

  [looks in the sky raising his fist] 

  Homer Simpson : Your pushing me baby!

• Homer Simpson : [At a town meeting]  I'm sorry my opponent didn't think enough of you to show up for this debate. I'm sure he had more important things to do.

  [Homer imitates Patterson drinking, everyone laughs] 

• Lisa Simpson : Dad, you can't just cram trash under Springfield forever...

  Homer Simpson : [pats her on head]  Sure I can, honey-kitten!
