Quotes
-
Stepmother : She's just Cinderella. She's nothing but a nothing.
Prince Henry : As they say, madam, it takes one to know one.
-
Cinderella : Do you know anything about kissing?
Prince Henry : Yes. I'm almost certain it has something to do with the lips.
-
Prince Henry : I don't even know her name.
King : You don't even know her name? What have you been calling her all this while, "Hey, you"?
-
[referring to the glass slipper]
Prince Henry : It's a perfect fit. I've found my princess.
Cinderella : Thank you, I've been looking for that everywhere.
[takes out the other slipper]
Arlene : She cheated!
-
King : What a beautiful lady. Well, are you going to introduce me?
Prince Henry : We're dancing, Father.
King : So? I'm the king, introduce me.
Cinderella : I've heard so much about you.
Prince Henry : Can you come back again later? Please?
King : All right... No need to get huffy.
-
Cinderella : I'm sorry I didn't recognize you.
Prince Henry : That's all right. In fact, it's quite refreshing. I get tired of being recognized all the time. Of course, it's hard to stay anonymous when your face is on all the money.
-
King : Say you'll marry the girl who fits this slipper.
Prince Henry : Oh, that's a wonderful idea!
King : Of course. I'm the king.
-
Bertha : That's such a gorgeous dress! Where did you have it made?
Cinderella : Oh, it's just something I poofed together.
Prince Henry : Poofed?
Cinderella : Did I say poofed? Oh, I meant put together.
-
Royal Adviser : My feet are killing me.
Prince Henry : And their feet are killing me. If I see one more fallen arch I'll scream.
-
Cinderella : But Fairy Godmother, isn't it a little cruel to turn them into rabbits?
Fairy Godmother : They'll be back to normal at midnight.
Prince Henry : Midnight? Midnight! Then that explains...
Fairy Godmother : Not only handsome, but smart.
-
[holding Cinderella's glass slipper]
Prince Henry : One thing's for certain - she has incredibly tiny feet.
King : That's it. You issue a proclamation. You say, "Whatsoever it slippereth..." Say, "Whomsoever..." Say, "You'll marry the girl whose foot fits this glass slipper."
Prince Henry : Yes! That's a terrific idea!
King : Well, of course. That's why I'm king.
