Quotes of Movie: "The Powers That Be" [1992]

  • Margaret:
    Oh, for Heavens sakes, look at these windows. They're filthy, Charlotte, they must be cleaned upstairs and down.



    Charlotte:
    Um, no, it's supposed to snow, Ma'am.



    Margaret:
    Well, how will we know if we can't see out the windows?

  • Margaret:
    Well, Theodore, darling, where's your overcoat? You're going to catch your death.



    Theodore:
    From your lips to...

  • Bill:
    I'm still puzzled as to why the Brotherhood Coalition is honoring me. I mean, there are so many others who have done so much more for black people in this country than I have. Maybe I'll mention that in my speech.



    Margaret:
    Mmm, humility, nice touch, yes. But be sure not to go on too long, dear. From what I understand, they like to get right to their dancing.



    Bill:
    Now, Margaret, that is just the kind of stereotyping that the Coalition is trying to put an end to.



    Margaret:
    Well, obviously they still have work to do!

  • Jordan:
    Senator, if they only gave awards to people who deserved them, there'd be a lot of empty banquet halls in this town!

  • Theodore:
    I'm going to get Mummy a glass of water and ten milligrams of something.

  • [Theodore enters the room]



    Caitlyn:
    Theodore, it's all your fault!



    Theodore:
    Probably.

  • Caitlyn:
    If it weren't for your silly job, we'd get to go to England with Mummy and Daddy. Why do you have to be a congressman?



    Theodore:
    To get to the other side.

  • Sophie:
    I think he has finally reached his peak. He can't suck up any more than he is right now. I mean, there is literally no more up to which he could suck!

  • Bradley:
    I wanted to spend my final moments among loved ones.



    Jordan:
    Keep looking!

  • Theodore:
    What do you think a person should do if he has something important to tell but he's been sworn to secrecy by the people he loves and cares for?



    Bill:
    Well, I think that...



    Theodore:
    Margaret poisoned the new First Lady.

  • Theodore:
    Death. You think of it as your friend, then it turns on you.

  • Caitlyn:
    The press, Pierce, remember the press.



    Pierce:
    Mother. Mother, look at me, please. I am not a photo opportunity.

  • Caitlyn:
    If I ever talked back to my mother like that...



    Theodore:
    Probably'd lose a leg!

  • Margaret:
    We're only having the press. Why would I serve a whole fresh-roast turkey to people who would happily eat a sock on white bread if it were free?

  • Pierce:
    Mother, you do this for every big party. You buy an outfit one size too small and then you starve yourself to get into it.



    Caitlyn:
    Mummy has no choice, darling. Look at me, I'm enormous!



    Theodore:
    And I'm happy.

  • Caitlyn:
    Pierce, go upstairs.



    Pierce:
    How about if I just go home?



    Caitlyn:
    How 'bout if I have the dog put to sleep?

  • Caitlyn:
    Theodore, I hate this night. First Daddy's hugging that woman and now there's a handicapped person rolling around in our living room.



    Theodore:
    That's Joe Bowman. The football player.



    Caitlyn:
    Nonsense. I don't know much about football but I'm sure you can't play in one of those chairs!

  • Margaret:
    I didn't realize your people ate shellfish.



    Sophie:
    My people? Oh. Well, some of my people do. We like to have them as a side dish when we're eating the Christian babies.

  • Bill:
    We're going to have a nice family dinner.



    Sophie:
    Don't you think we should find a nice family first?

  • Theodore:
    Why do we have to be here?



    Caitlyn:
    It's our anniversary. Where would you rather be?



    Theodore:
    Hurdling through a windshield.

  • Margaret:
    Caitlyn has difficulty with criticism.



    Caitlyn:
    Mother has difficulty with feelings. She has none.

  • Margaret:
    Well, I hope they all have fun at the luncheon... and then get botulism.

  • Margaret:
    Have you come to gloat or just admire the cutlery in my back?

  • Bill:
    Theodore, tell us about your day.



    Theodore:
    Well, thank God, it's almost over.

  • Sophie:
    It really is amazing, isn't it? People will watch a lousy home video eight hundred times and you can't get them to watch "The Torkelsons" even once.
