Quotes12

  • Anabel Banks: But we don't need a nanny.
  • John Banks: We have grown up a good deal in the past year.
  • Mary Poppins: [looking around the nursery room] Well, we'll have to see what can be done about that.
  • Mary Poppins: [singing] So, perhaps we've learnt when day is done, some stuff and nonsense could be fun!
  • Mary Poppins, Georgie Banks, Anabel Banks, John Banks: [all singing] Can you im-ag-ine that?
  • Anabel Banks: [glancing at the repaired bowl] John, look. Mary Poppins' scarf. It wasn't a dream after all.
  • John Banks: Shall we tell her?
  • Anabel Banks: Better not. I expect she already knows.
  • Anabel Banks: Which way do we go, Mary Poppins?
  • Mary Poppins: Now, why would you ask me? The three of you are leading the way, after all.
  • Anabel Banks: Us?
  • John Banks: But we were...
  • Mary Poppins: Walking around in a fog.
  • Anabel Banks: No, we weren't. I mean, we are in a fog, but...
  • John Banks: We were only talking.
  • Mary Poppins: Yes, too focused on where you've been to pay attention to where you're going.
  • John Banks: But Father told us to go straight home.
  • Anabel Banks: He'll be furious if we're late.
  • Mary Poppins: Not much to be done about that now, is there?
  • Anabel Banks: Mother always had us take our baths in the evening.
  • Mary Poppins: Well, in my experience, Anabel, the perfect time of day to have a bath is when one needs a wash. Georgie, you will go first.
  • John Banks: [stopping Georgie as he moves forward] We are perfectly capable of drawing our own baths.
  • Mary Poppins: How very helpful, John. In that case, you may turn off the tap.
  • [he moves to do so]
  • Mary Poppins: But not quite yet. Still need to put in the bubbles.
  • John Banks: But I don't like soap bubbles.
  • Mary Poppins: Well, then you shall have to try to avoid them at all costs.
  • John Banks: She's a tough nut, isn't she?
  • John Banks: What's a leerie?
  • Jack: Why, it's what we lamplighters call ourselves, of course. Leeries, trip the lights and lead the way!
  • Jack: Say, what's with all the glum faces? Lost sixpence and found a penny?
  • Anabel Banks: We've made a mess of everything.
  • John Banks: Father's furious with us.
  • Georgie Banks: And we can't find our way home.
  • Jack: Lost? Are you, Mary Poppins?
  • Mary Poppins: Hopelessly.
  • Ellen: Michael, your briefcase! Blimey, he'd leave his head on the breakfast table if it weren't screwed on.
  • Mary Poppins: Here, Ellen. I'll take the briefcase. The children and I are heading that way on an errand. We'll stop by the bank afterwards.
  • Jack: I'll give you a lift. My rounds are done.
  • Mary Poppins: Wonderful.
  • Jack: [leading them to his bicycle] All aboard, everyone. Come on.
  • Anabel Banks: On the bicycle? But there are five of us. We can't all fit.
  • John Banks: The weight on those wheels alone. Mary Poppins, how much do you weigh?
  • Jack: [her eyes widen in shock] Never you mind about that. It's all a question of balance.
  • Wolf: Hurry, hurry! Only a few seats left! Get tickets while you can for the one-night only, and only...
  • [seeing Mary]
  • Wolf: Mary Poppins! What an honor it is to have you join us this evening.
  • Mary Poppins: Thank you.
  • Wolf: And who is this I see? Why, it's John, Anabel, and Georgie Banks!
  • John Banks: You know us?
  • Wolf: Of course. Everyone knows the Banks children.
  • Badger: We've all been watching you in the nursery for years.
  • Weasel: It's so good to finally meet you.
  • Wolf: Hurry along, now. Get yourselves some peanuts and candy floss and go right on in.
  • Georgie Banks: May we, Mary Poppins?
  • Mary Poppins: Yes.
  • Georgie Banks: [hurrying away with Anabel and John] Come on! Let's get candy floss!
  • Mary Poppins: Just keep away from the edge of the bowl.
  • John Banks: Can we do that, Mary Poppins? Can we turn back time?
  • Mary Poppins: Well, I don't see why that couldn't be arranged.
  • Jack: You see, there's nothing to it.
  • Anabel Banks: Can you speak leerie, Mary Poppins?
  • Mary Poppins: Can I speak leerie?
  • Jack: Of course she can; she's Mary Poppins!
  • Georgie Banks: Can we do it with you?
  • Anabel Banks, John Banks: Please?
  • Mary Poppins: Oh, very well then.
  • Mary Poppins: You were having a nice sort of nightmare, I must say.
  • Georgie Banks: You were right, Mary Poppins! A cover is not the book. We thought they were nice, but they were mean!
  • Mary Poppins: Whatever are you talking about?
  • Georgie Banks: They tried to take Gillie!
  • Mary Poppins: No, Gillie is right here, sleeping, as you should be.
  • Georgie Banks: But it was all real! They stole all our things and the wolf said we were never going to see our home again!
  • Mary Poppins: That is absurd.
  • John Banks: But I had a nightmare like that, too.
  • Anabel Banks: So did I. It seemed awfully real.
  • Georgie Banks: I don't want to lose our home.
