A Christmas Carol (1938)

Quotes


Ebenezer Scrooge: [to Marley's ghost] We'll soon see how real you are.

[Calling out the window]

Ebenezer Scrooge: Watch! There's an intruder in my room!

Leader of watch: Right up, sir - law and order!

Jacob Marley's ghost: It was for your welfare that I made this visit, Ebenezer Scrooge.

[He disappears]

Leader of watch: [unable to find him] Your intruder seems to have extruded, if I may say so, sir.

Ebenezer Scrooge: He was here! He was a spirit!

Leader of watch: [laughing] Of course, sir! A fine night for spirits - of one form or another, sir!

`Bah!' said Scrooge, `Humbug!'

He had so heated himself with rapid walking in the fog and frost, this nephew of Scrooge's, that he was all in a glow; his face was ruddy and handsome; his eyes sparkled, and his breath smoked again. `Christmas a humbug, uncle!' said Scrooge's nephew. `You don't mean that, I am sure?'

`I do,' said Scrooge. `Merry Christmas! What right have you to be merry? What reason have you to be merry? You're poor enough.'

`Come, then,' returned the nephew gaily. `What right have you to be dismal? What reason have you to be morose? You're rich enough.'

Scrooge having no better answer ready on the spur of the moment, said `Bah!' again; and followed it up with `Humbug.'
