Quotes 

• Gomez Addams : Thank you, Thing. If it weren't for you, this place would be a madhouse.

• Morticia Addams : Oh, Gomez, the most touching thing has happened.

  Gomez Addams : [romantically]  Your carnivorous plant put his tentacle around you again. Tish, I think you've been feeding them altogether too much hamburger.

• Gomez Addams : Morticia, I must tell you: Uncle Fester is not himself.

  Morticia Addams : Oh, is that bad?

  Gomez Addams : [thinking]  Maybe not.

• Uncle Fester : [ready to post his love letter]  Do you think I ought to send a snapshot along?

  Morticia Addams : I believe so. How about that nice one the city took?

  Gomez Addams : The time you fell asleep on the park bench and they carried you off to the morgue by mistake.

• Uncle Fester : Well, under the circumstances, I... I though I'd take a bride.

  Morticia Addams : Uncle Fester, you just can't take a one, you're supposed to find your own.

  Gomez Addams : It's the sporting way, old boy.

  Morticia Addams : You'll be fighting the women off with clubs...

  Uncle Fester : Clubs?

  [things a moment] 

  Uncle Fester : Yeah... I think I'd like that...

• Gomez Addams : Someone at the door!

  Morticia Addams : Oh darling, it's Uncle Festers mail order bride.

  Uncle Fester : Ugly duckling!

• Gomez : I wonder what Uncle Fester's bride will be like? He once went with a girl who looked like a walrus.

  Morticia : Darling, beauty isn't everything.

  Gomez : You're right. He's talking about moving after the wedding. He's found a home in a nice condemned section.

  Morticia : I wonder what their children will be like...

  Gomez : Doesn't matter about the boys, but I hope the girls look like Uncle Fester.
