Edward quotes from Thomas & Friends

You must slow down and take care!

I am taking care, and taking care is finishing the job first!

Do you need any help?

No, thank you, Percy.

We can do it.

My name's Rocky.

I'm Edward.

Can I come with you? I could help you with those heavy pipes.

I don't need your help! New-fangled nonsense!

[picking up the pipes] This is going to take me a very long time!

We have to get through. Why don't you go and get Rocky?

No, no! Harvey is doing a fine job! We must be patient!

Emily

I don't like being patient! We have a very important job to do!

I can't lift Gordon. He's too heavy.

Edward, we need Rocky!

New-fangled nonsense!

But Edward knew this was a disaster, and he knew that Harvey couldn't lift Gordon. There was only one thing to do.

[leaves the junction] I'll go and get Rocky.

It's Edward, and look at James! He's pushing him! Isn't James a grand engine for being so kind?

Even though you weren't the engine on the poster, you are still really useful.

[after the trucks are broken] I'm not going anywhere without my lucky trucks.

But they're broken, and if you don't collect the presents soon the children won't haven anything to open in the morning.

I'll have to get to the airport somehow, even without my lucky trucks!

Percy, will you tell me how to deliver the mail?

Of course I will! I deliver the parcels in a special order. I always start with the delivery that is furthest away. Then I work my way back to Tidmouth Sheds.

[puffing into Brendam Docks; to Gordon and Emily, who are already there] Good morning!

[to the engines] The brand-new brass water wheel has just arrived from the mainland. It is magnificent. It will be displayed by the water works at Great Waterton. [to Edward] Edward, you will deliver the water wheel to Great Waterton. I have chosen you, Edward, because you are the steadiest engine. You are to take the express line. It is the smoothest and most direct way to Great Waterton.

[after Cranky safely lowered the amazing water wheel onto his flatbed] Edward the Steady, is at the ready!

[coming to Tidmouth Sheds with bad news] A summer storm struck Sodor last night. The wishing tree was hit by lightning. [Gordon and Toby were both upset to hear that, but Henry was most upset of all] Some special woodsmen are arriving at Brendam Docks. [turns to Henry] Henry, you are to take them to the wishing tree right away. They have to be back at Brendam Docks by teatime. That's when their boat leaves.

Yes, sir. [puffs quickly away; comes up to a junction and decides to take the track that passes the wishing tree]

Sometimes, Henry, special woodsmen have to cut trees down.

Will he blow over?

Why's he so spotty?

Does he sit down?

Okay, Charlie. I have a joke for you! How do you know when an engine is eating?

Errr, I don't know, Eddie. Tell me!

You hear it "choo-ing"!

That's a good one, Eddie! You really are the most fun of all!

That's a good story.

ARGH! That's right. Ha! I likes a good story, me! Ha, ha, ha, ha, har!

Hello, Edward! All ready for the snow?

Oh, yes, Percy. Better to be safe than sorry!

And what do you say?

Oh, the indignity!

Sorry?

I mean thank you. Thank you, Edward!

You're welcome, Gordon. Any time.

[about Cranky] He thinks if he works twice as fast, Sir Topham Hatt won't replace him with a... [under his breath] big new fancy crane.

Replace him with a what?

[whispers] A big new fancy crane.

A big shoe zebra plane?

No! A big new fancy crane.

A pig stew dancing lane?!

A BIG, NEW, FANCY CRANE!

Okay! Okay! No need to shout!
