Quotes48

  • Fiyero: [Looks at Elphaba dancing all by herself while others are laughing at her] I'll say this much, she doesn't give a twig what anyone thinks.
  • Glinda: Of course she does. She just pretends not to.
  • Glinda, Elphaba: There's been some confusion, for you see, my room-mate is...
  • Glinda: Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe.
  • Elphaba: [deadpan] Blonde.
  • Glinda: Let's tell each other a secret that we've never told anyone else before. Okay, fine. I'll go first: Fiyero and I are getting married.
  • Elphaba: He asked you already?
  • Glinda: Oh, he doesn't know yet.
  • Munchkinland Kid: But, Miss Glinda?
  • Glinda: Yes?
  • Munchkinland Kid: Why does wickedness happen?
  • Glinda: That's a good question, one many people find confusifying. Are people born wicked? Or do they have wickedness thrust upon them? After all, The Wicked Witch had a childhood. She had a father, who, by the way, had been appointed governor of Munchkinland. And she had a mother, as so many do.
  • Madame Morrible: [broadcast] Citizens of Oz! There is an enemy who must be found and captured. Believe nothing she says. She has stolen our Grimmerie. She is evil, responsible for the mutilation of these poor innocent monkeys! Her green skin is but an outward manifestorium of her twisted nature. This distortion! This repulsion! This wicked witch!
  • Glinda: Don't be afraid.
  • Elphaba: I'm not afraid. It's the Wizard who should be afraid of me.
  • Glinda: [mocking Elphaba] It seems the artichoke is steamed.
  • Glinda: Something is very wrong, I didn't get my way... I need to lay down.
  • Glinda: [from trailer] Oh, I saved you some space, by the way.
  • Elphaba: [sees that the space is only big enough to fit a bed] Do you really think this is fair?
  • Glinda: [thinking she's referring to them rooming together] I do not. I was PROMISED a private suite. But thanks for asking.
  • [first lines]
  • Radio Announcer: Glinda, exactly how dead is she?
  • Glinda: Because there has been so much rumor and speculation, let me tell you the whole story. According to the Time Dragon Clock, the melting occurred at the thirteenth hour, the direct result of a bucket of water thrown by a female child. Yes, the Wicked Witch of the West is dead!
  • Elphaba: Fine, let's get this over with: no, I am not seasick; no, I did not eat grass as a child; and yes, I've always been green.
  • Glinda: Well, I, for one, am... So sorry, that you have been forced to live with... this.
  • Elphaba: Is that so?
  • Glinda: Yes! And it is my intention to major in sorcery. So, if at some point, you wanted to address the, um... Problem...
  • Elphaba: Problem.
  • Glinda: ... perhaps I could help.
  • [the whole Shiz students clap and praise her, while Elphaba analyzes the reaction]
  • Elphaba: Offering to help someone that you don't know with skills that you don't have, I'm sure everyone is duly impressed.
  • Glinda: I could care less what others think.
  • Elphaba: Couldn't.
  • Glinda: What?
  • Elphaba: You couldn't care less what other people think. Though, I... I doubt that.
  • Glinda: [from trailer] That was you that made all that happen. How'd you do it?
  • Elphaba: [agitated] I don't know! I've never known!
  • Glinda: [Glinda turns around and looks at Elphaba for the first time, yelps] Oh! Oz.
  • Elphaba: [calmly] What? What are you staring at? Do I have something in my teeth?
  • Glinda: No, it's just... You're green.
  • Elphaba: [looks at her own hands, then replies sarcastically] I am.
  • Glinda: Elphaba Thropp, listen to me. You can do this. You can do anything.
  • Elphaba: It's my fault.
  • Glinda: What is?
  • Elphaba: That my sister is the way she is. When my mother was carrying Nessa, my father began to worry that she might come out...
  • Glinda: -Green.
  • Elphaba: ... green. He was so worried that he made my mother chew milk flowers day and night. Only, the milk flowers made Nessa come too soon, and... and her little legs, they...
  • Glinda: [gasps]
  • Elphaba: And my mother... Well, she never woke up. None of which would've ever happened if it wasn't for... for me. So it's my fault.
  • Glinda: What? No. That was the milk flowers' fault, not yours. That might be your secret, Elphaba, but that doesn't make it true.
  • Boq: Um, I hope you'll save a dance for me tonight. I'll be right there, waiting... All night.
  • Glinda: [steals a glance at Nessarose, who is alone] That's so kind. But you know what would be even kinder?
  • Glinda: [sings, points at Nessarose] See that tragic'lly beautiful girl, the one in the chair? It seems so unfair, we should go on a spree and not she, gee. I know someone would be my hero, if that someone were to go invite her.
  • Boq: [reluctantly] Well, maybe I could invite her.
  • Glinda: Oh, Bick, really? You would do that for me?
  • Boq: I would do anything for you.
  • [Then Glinda encourages Boq to come to Nessarose, cleverly ushering him without hurting him]
  • Fiyero: [watches Glinda usher Boq out, laughing] You're good.
  • Glinda: [feigns innocence] I don't know what you mean, I love helping others. Oh, and I happen to be free tonight, after all.
  • Glinda: [sings] Now that we've met one another...
  • Glinda, Fiyero: [harmonizing] It's clear we deserve each other!
  • Glinda: You're perfect.
  • Fiyero: You're perfect.
  • Glinda, Fiyero: [both sing] So we're perfect together, born to be forever. Dancing through life!
  • Fiyero: [Bids his farewell to Elphaba before she leaves to Emerald City] Good luck.
  • [Walks away, leaving Glinda alone]
  • Glinda: [Flabbergasted] See? There! What.. Wh-wh-what is that?
  • Elphaba: Don't be upset, Galinda.
  • Glinda: [frustrated] It's Glinda now! Stupid. I don't even know what made me say it.
  • Elphaba: It doesn't matter what your name is, everyone loves you.
  • Glinda: I don't care! I want him. I don't think he's perfect anymore and I still want him. This must be what other people feel like. How do they bear it?
  • Glinda: [an Emerald City guard grabs her leg] Give me my leg. Give me my leg!
  • Elphaba: Come with me!
  • Glinda: [shocked] What?
  • Elphaba: To meet the Wizard!
  • Glinda: What are you saying?
  • Elphaba: Get on the train, you're gonna miss it!
  • Glinda: I wouldn't want to impose!
  • Elphaba: It doesn't- It doesn't matter, just come with me!
  • Glinda: I couldn't possibly, this is your moment! I'm coming!
  • [hops onto the train]
  • Madame Morrible: [talks to the Shiz students] Which one of you would volunteer to share a room with...
  • Glinda: [runs behind Madame Morrible, tries to step over a bench but ends up falling. Madame Morrible stops speaking as she's interrupted by Galinda's antics] Ow. Ow.
  • [Galinda raises her hand, tries to ask something]
  • Glinda: Madame Morrible, um...
  • Madame Morrible: Thank you, dear. That is very good of you.
  • Glinda: What?
  • Madame Morrible: [turns to Elphaba] Miss...?
  • Elphaba: Elphaba.
  • Madame Morrible: Elphaba. You can room with Miss Galinda.
  • [Galinda gasps in shock]
  • Elphaba: Wait, what? I... What?
  • Munchkinland Kid: Glinda! Is it true you were her friend?
  • Glinda: [is in the bubble, her voice muffled] What? Sorry, one sec.
  • [Pops the bubble with her wand]
  • Glinda: What?
  • Munchkinland Kid: Is it true you were her friend?
  • Glinda: Friend?
  • [her expression changed, pauses briefly before answering]
  • Glinda: Yes.
  • [the whole Munchkinland citizens gasp and whisper to each other]
  • Glinda: I, I mean I did know her. That is, our paths did cross... at school.
  • [the citizens gasp]
  • Glinda: But you must understand, it was a long time ago.
