Quotes of Movie: The Last Unicorn [1982]

Schmendrick: Tell me what you see. Don't be afraid. Look at your fellow legends and tell me what you see.
Unicorn: What he calls a Manticore looks to be no more than a shabby, toothless lion. And he has that whole crowd believing that poor old ape with the twisted foot is a Satyr! Illusions, deceptions, mirages! Your Mommy Fortuna cannot truly change things!
Schmendrick: That is true. She can only disguise, and only for those eager to believe whatever comes easiest. She cannot turn cream into butter, but she can make a lion look like a manticore to eyes that want to see a manticore. Just like she put a false horn on a real unicorn so they can see the unicorn. I know you. If I were blind, I would know what you are.
Unicorn: Who are you?
Schmendrick: I am called Schmendrick, the Magician. Uh... you won't have heard of me. (unknown)
Schmendrick the Magician: [to Molly] You can't come with us.
Schmendrick the Magician: We're on a quest! (unknown)
Molly: Where were you twenty years ago? Ten years ago? Where were you when I was new? When I was one of those innocent young maidens you always come to? How dare you! How dare you come to me now, when I am this! (unknown)
Schmendrick: The magic chose the shape, not I. I am a bearer, I am a dwelling, I am a messenger...
Molly: You are an idiot! (unknown)

Haggard: You may come and go as you please. My secrets guard themselves. Will yours do the same? (unknown)

Almathea: Drown out my dreams! Keep me from remembering whatever wants me to remember it! (unknown)
Haggard: Love is slowing you down, my lady. I will catch you at last, if you love much more. (unknown)
Amalthea: Once, I can't remember, I was long ago, someone strange. I was innocent and wise, and full of pain. Now that I'm a woman, everything has changed. Once, when I was searching, somewhere out of reach, far away, in a place I could not find, or heart obey. Now that I'm a woman, everything is strange. (unknown)
The Cat: No cat out of its first fur was ever deceived by appearances, unlike human beings, who seem to enjoy it. (unknown)
Butterfly: Listen. Don't listen to ME, listen. You can find the others if you are brave. They passed down all the roads long ago, and the Red Bull ran close behind them and covered their footprints. Listen! Listen, listen QUICKLY!
Unicorn: [agitated] I AM listening! Where did they go and what is the Red Bull?
Butterfly: Listen! LISTEN!
[insane laughter]
Butterfly: The king is in his counting house, counting out, counting out, counting... (unknown)
Schmendrick: Don't cry. If you have become human enough to cry, then all the magic in the world cannot change you back. (unknown)
Butterfly: Your name is a golden bell hung in my heart. I would break my body to pieces to call you once by your name. (unknown)

The Cat: No cat anywhere ever gave anyone a straight answer. (unknown)
Prince Lir: Heroes know that things must happen when it is time for them to happen. A quest may not simply be abandoned; unicorns may go unrescued for a long time, but not forever; a happy ending cannot come in the middle of the story. (unknown)
Molly Grue: What is the use of wizardry if it cannot save a unicorn?
Schmendrick the Magician: That is what heroes are for. (unknown)
Schmendrick the Magician: She will remember your heart when men are fairy tales in books written by rabbits. Of all unicorns, she is the only one who knows what regret is - and love. (unknown)
The Unicorn: Never run from anything immortal; it only attracts their attention. (unknown)
The Butterfly: They passed down all the roads long ago. And the Red Bull ran behind them, and covered their footsteps. (unknown)
