Alvy Moore: Grandpa Little

Quotes 

• Grandpa Little : [waiting for Dinky's glider to take off]  Get going, Dinky!

  Dinky Little : Roger! Pilot to navigator: check wind velocity, watch out for birds, chart the course, look out for television antennas, advise me of altitude...

  Grandpa Little : Navigator to pilot: SHUT UP!

• Grandpa Little : Can't you make this crate go any faster?

  Dinky Little : Don't tell me how to fly; I'm the world's greatest pilot! I can tell you...

  Grandpa Little : [ties Dinky's scarf over his mouth]  Shut up!

  Grandpa Little : [as glider spins out of control]  Watch out, fool!

  Grandpa Little : [falling from the plane]  You are the world's greatest knucklehead!

• Grandpa Little : [after the pair are spotted by Augustus, who has mistaken them for toys]  Good, he thinks we're toys. Pretend you're a toy!

  Dinky Little : First I'm a mouse, then bait, now a toy? I never live it down!

  Grandpa Little : You cabbage-head! If Augustus finds out who we are, there's no telling what he might do to us!

  Dinky Little : I'm a toy! I'm a toy!

• Grandpa Little : [after Dinky has fainted when he and Grandpa are nearly cut to pieces by a lawnmower]  Dinky? Wake up, Dinky!

  Dinky Little : [groggily, after coming to]  Are we in heaven?

  Grandpa Little : I should hope not; I wouldn't want to spend eternity with you!

• Henry Bigg : [having spotted Grandpa and Dinky while mowing the lawn]  What are those?

  [picks them up] 

  Henry Bigg : What weird little things!

  Dinky Little : [offended]  Who's a "weird little thing"? I...

  Grandpa Little : [covers Dinky's mouth]  Shhhh!

• Grandpa Little : [preparing to lower himself into Augustus' chimney from Dinky's glider, via a rope]  When the crows leave, land on the roof, and we'll meet you there. Keep the glider steady, and put me in that chimney!

  Grandpa Little : [after smacking into the outside chimney wall]  I said put me in the chimney, not in the hospital!

• Grandpa Little : [tapping his hand against the bulldozer, which has just stopped inches away from destroying the Littles' home, ostensibly by Dinky throwing himself in front of it]  It stopped!

  Helen Little : That was a brave thing to do, Dinky!

  Grandpa Little : Sure was. If there's anything I can ever do for you, name it!

  Dinky Little : [sounding lightheaded]  There is one thing: you can catch me while I faint!

  [cries out, falls backwards, landing in Grandpa's arms] 

• Lucy Little : [after she and Tom are reunited with Grandpa and Dinky, who have just escaped from being locked inside Augustus' desk]  Grandpa, Dinky! Are you OK?

  Grandpa Little : Yeah. Good you're here. Quick, we have to get home! Did you hear that Augustus?

  Dinky Little : [referring to Henry's gas-powered toy plane, which was damaged by an owl earlier that night]  Then let's find that airplane and see if we can repair it!

  Grandpa Little : Well, congratulations, Dinky. You finally said something intelligent!

• Tom Little , Lucy Little : [spotting Grandpa landing in Augustus' house, after plunging down the chimney]  Grandpa!

  Grandpa Little : [hugging Tom and Lucy]  Thank goodness you're OK!

  Lucy Little : Yes, but Mom and Dad won't be unless we can get home in time to warn them.

  Tom Little : In two days, Augustus is gonna send bulldozers to tear down Henry's house.

  Grandpa Little : You are a heartless, vicious old man, Augustus!

  Lucy Little : Not only that, but he also slurps his soup.

• Dinky Little : [seeing his glider being torn to pieces by a cat]  My glider!

  Tom Little : A cat!

  Lucy Little : How are we gonna get home in time now?

  Tom Little : I know! Dinky can tame the cat, and we can ride home on his back!

  Dinky Little : [shocked by the suggestion]  Huh?

  Tom Little : Didn't you once tell me you were a lion tamer?

  Dinky Little : Of course. The greatest! But I can't tame that cat; I need special equipment that I don't happen to have.

  Grandpa Little : [disgusted]  Such as courage.
