Winston Zeddemore quotes from The Real Ghostbusters

Man, this job was a lot easier when these things didn't shoot back!

Egon Spengler

We've gotta go after it.

No, we don't. Show me where it says that.

Ray Stantz

I want a glass of water.

[gives him glass] Here. Now get to sleep.

Ray Stantz

[drinks; Peter nearly closes the door] Oh, Peter.

What?

Ray Stantz

Tell me a story.

He's just getting into the role.

He's gonna be in a body cast if he keeps this up. [opens door; to Ray] Once upon a time, there were four Ghostbusters who had a job to do but they couldn't do it because one of 'em couldn't go to sleep! The end! [slams door]

I'd like to welcome you to the studio.

Ray Stantz

Wow! This is really fantastic! It looks just like the real thing!

That's why we wanted you here to advise us, make sure we're doing it right. After all, this is your life story.

No problem. As long as you got the right people to play us. Admit it, Redford was dying to play me, right?

Not exactly. Here's the cast list.

Murray, Aykroyd and Ramis? What's that, a law firm?

Relax, folks, we're just browsing.

Ray Stantz

Yeah, anybody seen a ghost?

Ghost!?

Silver tongue strikes again.

It's times like this that I wish I'd listened to what my dad used to tell me.

Yeah? What was that?

I don't know. I never listened.

Egon Spengler

It's Sumerian.

Can you read Sumerian?

Egon Spengler

In my sleep. Underwater with the lights off. Of course I can read Sumerian.

Ray Stantz

Do you know what kind of power he must have been in contact with for a single sheet of exposed paper to do that?

Uhhh... do I want to?

Ray Stantz

Only if you want nightmares for the rest of your life!

I'll pass.

Ray Stantz

That thing hurt Ecto-1!

The world's being destroyed and he worries about Ecto-1. We should really speak to him later about his priorities.

If there is a later.

Y'know, you're really no fun anymore.

You've got an idea don't you, you kidder you. A way we can take this guy out. C'mon, fill us in.

Egon Spengler

There's only one way. We'll have to set our proton packs on simultaneous overload.

Ray Stantz

Oh great, Egon. We do that and it'll take Jeremy out all right. And the building. There'll be a blast crater half a mile wide!

And since we'll have to keep hold of 'em until they blow, to make sure they aren't turned off…oh man.

Egon Spengler

We take out everything within a quarter mile, ourselves with it, and hope it's enough to destroy him too before he can destroy the rest of the world.

It's a great plan! Count me in.

I don't believe it, the thing just keeps getting uglier!

Egon Spengler

Nobody said that science was pretty, Winston.

Ray Stantz

Hey, listen to this. "From Monday to Friday, the New York Public Library presents... the Necronomicon"!

I didn't know the library did rock concerts.

Egon Spengler

It's not a rock group, Winston - it's the single most powerful book of magic spells ever written.

Ray Stantz

H. P. Lovecraft and others wrote a whole series of horror stories based on it. Come on, we gotta see it! I'll bet the copyright page alone has a PKE valence of 9.9!

Egon Spengler

The Necronomicon's spells are like sonic keys that can open portals to other dimensions, where the Great Old Ones wait to take over the Earth.

Yeah? Give me an example.

Egon Spengler

Cathulhu.

Gesundheit.

Cathulhu...I've heard of him. He's bad, right?

Egon Spengler

He makes Gozer look like Little Mary Sunshine.

Egon Spengler

Notice the vacant stare, the completely mindless look. That could only mean one thing.

She's from California?

Egon Spengler

No. She's been hypnotized.

What does that mean?

It means that if Darth Vader were willing to loan us the Death Star, we might have a chance... might.

Then you know what that means... the big guy.

"The big guy"?!

Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse...
