Quotes
ADD QUOTES- Ginger: Oh let's face it Mary Ann, I don't know what you do with this. Mary Ann: In Kansas we plant wheat, not citrus fruit. Ginger: All I know about oranges is that in Florida people grow them to send to people in California who grow them to send to people in Florida. Mary Ann: When in doubt, use the farmer's formula: One part sunshine, two parts water, and three parts prayer. Professor: (reading from book) "The scientific approach to the rapid growth of citrus fruits is assured with the proper amounts of vitamin D, aqua naturalis, and fertilizer containing sodium chloride, nitrate of potassium, and calcium. If this doesn't achieve results try one part sunshine, two parts water and three parts prayer." Edit
- Professor: Let's try to be sensible about this. I mean, after all, there's a logical answer to every problem. Lovey: Oh well the logical thing is to give me the orange. I do so much charity work. Skipper: But I'm the one that's sick right now. Ginger: But it's ladies first, Skipper. Mary Ann: It's women and children first. Therefore I get two votes. Gilligan: Can I say something? Thurston: Gilligan, keep quiet, will you? Can't you see we're very busy? Professor: Please. Please. Please. Now let's remember that even though this is a crisis we're all friends. I'm sure that each of us has reasons for believing we deserve the orange. Mary Ann: I'm a member of the 4-H club. Skipper: Well I'm a veteran. Ginger: I'm a movie star. Lovey: I'm a member of the DAR. Thurston: I'm Thurston Howell III. Anyone care to top that? Edit
- Thurston: Mine, mine, all mine. Gilligan: What do you want with a tennis ball? Thurston: Now that was pretty sneaky. Gilligan: How about you sneaking up behind me to steal the orange? Thurston: That was right in character. Gilligan: Mr. Howell, you got to understand. I only have one orange and all my friends need it. Thurston: I know. I know, but can they afford it? Gilligan: It's not for sale. Thurston: Wait a minute, Gilligan. It's not for me you see. It's for my wife, a loyal woman. Very much like your own mother. Gilligan: Oh I thought you were being selfish. Thurston: You see, you misjudged me. You will give that orange to Mrs. Howell, won't you? Gilligan: And she'll give it right back to you. Thurston: Of course. Gilligan, you've outwitted a Howell. Edit
