1
Laverne: Take it from an old spectator. Life's not a spectator sport. If watchin' is all you're gonna do, then you're gonna watch your life go by without ya.

Esmeralda: [singing] I ask for nothing, I can get by / But I know so many, less lucky then I / Please help my people, the poor and downtrod / I thought we all were, the children of God / God, help the outcast, children of God.

Frollo: Now, now. L-Listen to me, Quasimodo...
Quasimodo: No! You listen! All my life, you have told me that the world is a dark, cruel place. But now I see that the only thing dark and cruel about it is people like you.

Esmeralda: [singing] I don't know if you can hear me, or if you're even there / I don't know if you would listen to a Gypsy's prayer / Yes, I know I'm just an outcast, I shouldn't speak to you / Still, I see your face and wonder, were you once an outcast, too?

Frollo: Protect me, Maria / Don't let the siren cast her spell / Don't let her fire sear my flesh and bone / Destroy Esmeralda / And let her taste the fires of hell / Or else let her be mine and mine alone.

Frollo: This is an unholy demon. I'm sending it back to hell, where it belongs.
The Archdeacon: [singing] See, there, the innocent blood you have spilt / On the steps of Notre Dame.
Frollo: I am guiltless. She ran. I pursued.
The Archdeacon: Now you would add this child's blood to your guilt / On the steps of Notre Dame.
Frollo: My conscience is clear.
The Archdeacon: You can lie to yourself and your minions / You can claim that you haven't a qualm / But you never can run from / Nor hide what you've done from the eyes / The very eyes of Notre Dame.

Frollo: The Gypsies live outside the normal order. Their heathen ways inflame the people's lowest instincts. And they must be stopped.
Phoebus: I was summoned from the wars to capture fortune-tellers and palm readers?
Frollo: Eh, the real war, Captain, is what you see before you. For 20 years I have been taking care of the Gypsies,
Frollo: [squashes ants in the ledge] ... one by one. And yet, for all my success,
Frollo: [lifts block to expose a swarm of bugs] ... they have thrived. I believe they have a safe haven within the walls of this very city. A nest, if you will. They call it the Court of Miracles.
Phoebus: What are we going to do about it, sir?
[Frollo smashes the block over the bugs]
Phoebus: You make your point quite vividly, sir.

Esmeralda: [reading Quasimodo's palm] Hmm. Hmm, mmm, mmm. Well, that's funny.
Quasimodo: What?
Esmeralda: I don't see any...
Quasimodo: Any what?
Esmeralda: Monster lines. Not a single one.
Esmeralda: [holds out her hand] Now, you look at me. Do you think I'm evil?
Quasimodo: No! No-No. Y-You are kind and good and... and...
Esmeralda: And a Gypsy. And maybe Frollo's wrong about the both of us.

[after the pigeon fledgling leaves the nest, Hugo comes alive and spits out the nest in his mouth]

Hugo: Ha-ha-ha. Go scare a nun.

[describing the bells]
Clopin: They're beautiful, no? So many colors of sound, so many changing moods. Because, you know, they do not ring all by themselves.
Puppet: They don't?
Clopin: No, you silly boy. Up there, high, high in the dark bell tower, lives the mysterious bell ringer. Who is this creature?
Puppet: Who?
Clopin: What is he?
Puppet: What?
Clopin: How did he come to be there?
Puppet: How?
Clopin: Hush!
Puppet: Ow!
Clopin: Clopin will tell you. It is a tale, a tale of a man, and a monster.

Phoebus: Speaking of trouble, we should have run into some by now.

Frollo: [picks up one of Quasimodo's wooden figures] Isn't this one new? It's awfully good. Looks very much like the Gypsy girl. I know, you let her escape!
Quasimodo: But I...
Frollo: And now all Paris is burning because of you!
Quasimodo: She was kind to me, Master.
Frollo: You idiot! That wasn't kindness! It was cunning! She's a Gypsy! Gypsies are not capable of real love! Think, boy! Think of your mother!

Frollo: Dear boy, whomever are you talking to?
Quasimodo: My... friends.
Frollo: I see.
Frollo: [taps the head of one of the gargoyles] And what are your friends made of, Quasimodo?
Quasimodo: Stone.
Frollo: Can stone talk?
Quasimodo: No, it can't.
Frollo: That's right. You're a smart lad.

Esmeralda: Shh. Shh. Shh. You'll hide here until you're strong enough to move.
[Esmeralda pulls out a flask]

Hugo: You mean the Feast of Fools? All right, all right! Pour the wine and cut the cheese.
Victor: It is a treat to watch the colorful pageantry of the simple peasant folk.
Hugo: Boy, nothin' like balcony seats for watching the ol' F.O.F.
Quasimodo: Yeah, watchin'.
[Quasimodo leaves dissapointed]
