Goldie Wilson: I'll be the most powerful man in Hill Valley,
and I'm gonna clean up this town. Lou: [handing him a broom]
Good, you can start by sweeping the floor.
[Lorraine's parents are talking about Marty McFly, Lorraine's
future son] Stella Baines: He's a very strange young man.
Sam Baines: He's an idiot. Comes from upbringing. His parents
are probably idiots too. Lorraine, if you ever have a kid
that acts that way I'll disown you.
George McFly: Lorraine, my density has bought me to you. Lorraine
Baines: What? George McFly: Oh, what I meant to say was...
Lorraine Baines: Wait a minute, don't I know you from somewhere?
George McFly: Yes! Yes! I'm George, George McFly! I'm your
density. I mean... your destiny.
George McFly: Last night, Darth Vader came down from planet
Vulcan and told me that if I didn't take Lorraine out that
he'd melt my brain.
Marty McFly: Wait a minute, Doc. Ah... Are you telling me
you built a time machine... out of a DeLorean? Doctor Emmet
Brown: The way I see it, if you're gonna build a time machine
into a car, why not do it with some style?
[1955 Doc is watching a video of 1985 Doc] Doctor Emmet Brown:
What on Earth's this thing I'm wearing? Marty McFly: Ah, this,
this is a radiation suit. Doctor Emmet Brown: Radiation suit?
Of course, because of all the fallout from the atomic wars!
[In the past, Marty observes his dad's incompetence.] Marty:
Jesus, George, it's a wonder I was ever born!
Mr. Strickland: You don't have a chance, you're too much like
your old man. No McFly ever amounted to anything in the history
of Hill Valley! Marty McFly: Yeah, well, history is gonna
change.
[Repeated line] Marty McFly: If you put your mind to it, you
can accomplish anything.
Dave McFly: [kissing George McFly on the head] See ya pop.
Oooow, time to change that oil!
Doctor Emmet Brown: If my calculations are correct, when this
baby hits eighty-eight miles per hour ... you're gonna see
some serious shit.
[In 1955, Tab and Pepsi Free aren't invented yet] Lou: You
gonna order something, kid? Marty McFly: Ah, yeah... Give
me a Tab. Lou: Tab? I can't give you a tab unless you order
something! Marty McFly: Alright, give me a Pepsi Free. Lou:
You want a Pepsi, PAL, you're gonna pay for it!
[Dr. Emmet Brown is doubting Marty McFly's story about that
he is from the future] Dr. Emmet Brown: Then tell me, "future
boy", who is president in the United States in 1985? Marty
McFly: Ronald Reagan. Dr. Emmet Brown: Ronald Reagan? The
actor?! Who's Vice President? Jerry Lewis? Marty McFly: What?
Dr. Emmet Brown: I suppose Jane Wyman is the first lady! And
Jack Benny is secretary of the treasury! I've had enough practical
jokes for one evening! Good day, future boy!
[Marty McFly comes to his school in 1955] Marty McFly: Wow,
they really cleaned this place up. It looks brand new!
Marty McFly: Wait a minute, Doc, are you trying to tell me
that my mother has got the hots for me? Dr. Emmet Brown: Precisely.
Marty McFly: Whoa, this is heavy. Dr. Emmet Brown: There's
that word again; "heavy". Why are things so heavy in the future?
Is there a problem with the earth's gravitational pull?
[The correct phrase is "So why don't you make like a tree
and leave"] Biff Tannen: So why don't you make like a tree
and get outta here.
George McFly: Lou! Give me a milk... [dramatic pause] Chocolate!
[Marty McFly arrives late for his take-off] Dr. Emmet Brown:
You got no concept of time!
Dr. Emmet Brown: Don't worry! As long as you hit that wire
with the connecting hook at precisely eighty-eight miles per
hour the instant the lightning strikes the tower ... everything
will be fine!
[Last line] Dr. Emmet Brown: Roads? Where we're going we don't
need roads.
Dr. Emmett "Doc" L. Brown: Next Saturday night, we're sending
you back to the future!
Dr. Emmett L. "Doc" Brown: I'm sure in 1985, plutonium is
available at every corner drugstore, but in 1955 it's a little
hard to come by!
George McFly: I know what you're gonna say, son. And you're
right, you're right. But Biff just happens to be my supervisor,
and I'm afraid I'm just no good at... confrontations. Marty
McFly: The car, Dad! I mean he wrecked it! He totaled it!
I needed that car tomorrow night, Dad. Do you have any idea
how important this is to me? Do you have any clue? George
McFly: I know, son. And all I can say is... I'm sorry.
Biff Tannen: I have your car towed all the way to your house
and all you've got for me is LIGHT beer?
Marvin Berry: [on the phone, as Marty plays "Johnny B. Goode"]
Chuck! Chuck! It's Marvin -- your cousin, Marvin BERRY. You
know that new sound you're looking for? Well, listen to this!
[holds the receiver out]
Marty McFly: [watching a Honeymooners episode in 1955] Hey,
I've seen this one. I've seen this one. This is a classic.
Milton Baines: What do you mean, you've seen this? It's brand
new. Marty McFly: I saw it on a... [realizing] rerun. Milton
Baines: What's a rerun?
[Stella Baines is Marty's future grandmother.] Stella Baines:
Why do you look so familiar to me? Do I know your mother?
Marty: Yeah, I think maybe you do.
[Marty learns the consequences of tampering with the past.]
Marty McFly: Sounds pretty heavy. Dr. Emmet Brown: Weight
has nothing to do with it.
