  • [Majestic Films version]
  • Nurse (Majestic Films version): Your bath's ready! The water's getting cold! Princess, he's a cobbler! Keep your eyes on your work, Cobbler!
  • Tack the Cobbler: Y-yes, ma'am.
  • Tack the Cobbler: [after Princess Yum-Yum and Nanny leave] Nothing wrong with being a cobbler. Why can't I ever talk when it matters?
  • [Miramax version]
  • Tack the Cobbler: [freeing himself] Who needs a genie, when a tack will do the trick?
  • [Miramax version]
  • Tack the Cobbler: Well, I guess they never ran into a cobbler before.
  • [Miramax version]
  • Tack the Cobbler: Legend has it, that each shooting star is really an Arabian Knight riding across the heavens. And at the center at every star is an ancient story untouched by time. Long before the heroic tales of Aladdin and Ali Baba, the first Arabian Knight was chosen. But where would destiny find someone so courageous and pure of heart? Amid the swirling sands of the great Arabian desert, was the golden city of Baghdad. And at its center, an enchanted castle, dedicated to reason and goodness. High atop its tallest tower, were three golden balls, whose magic protected it from the evil King One-Eye and his army of darkness. According to the prophecy, if the balls were ever removed, Baghdad would be in great danger. With only the golden city left to conquer, the terrible One-Eyes were on the march.
