The Mummy quotes

View Quote (seeking information on the lost city of Hamunaptra, Evie and Jonathan visit O'Connell in Cairo prison)
Evie: What exactly is this man in prison for?
Warden Gad Hassan: Well, this I did not know. But when I learned you were coming, I asked him that myself.
Evie: And?
Warden: He said he was just looking for a good time.
(After the discussion between Evy and Rick)
Evie: Where are they taking him!?
Warden: To be hanged. Apparently, he had a very good time.

View Quote Burns: Hey, that's my toolkit!
Rick: No, I don't think so [Points gun at him]
Burns: O-kay, perhaps I was mistaken...

View Quote Dr. Bey: We are part of an ancient secret society. For over three thousand years we have guarded the City of the Dead. We are sworn at manhood to do any and all in our power to stop the High Priest Imhotep from being reborn into this world.
Ardeth Bay: And now because of you, we have failed.
Evelyn: And you think this justifies the killing of innocent people?
Dr. Bey: To stop this creature? Let me think...
Ardeth Bay and Dr. Bey: YES!

View Quote Evelyn: Keep him busy!
Rick: (being thrown around by Imhotep) No problem.

View Quote Evelyn: Stop it! You'll kill them!
Beni:...That's the idea...

View Quote Evelyn: We must stop him from regenerating. Who opened that chest?
Henderson: Well, there was me and Daniels here. And Burns, of course...
Daniels: And that Egyptologist fella.
Rick: What about my buddy Beni?
Henderson: Nah, he scrammed out of there before we opened the damn thing.
Daniels: Yeah, he was the smart one.
Rick: Yeah...that sounds like Beni.
Evelyn: We must find the Egyptologist and bring him back to the safety of the fort before the creature can get to him.
Rick: Right. (Points to Evelyn) She stays here. (To Daniels, Henderson and Jonathan) You three come with me.
[Rick turns to leave, but they all shout in protest]
Henderson: Oh, no way!
Evelyn: Just a minute, you can't just leave me behind here like some old kind of carpetbag, I mean, who put you in charge - (Rick throws her over his shoulder) O'Connell! What do you think you are doing? Jonathan! O'Connell!
Jonathan: Er...sorry, Evie, he's, er...a bit...tall...
[Rick dumps Evelyn on her bed and locks her in her bedroom.]
Rick: This door doesn't open. She doesn't come out and no one goes in. Right?
Daniels: Right.
Rick: Right?
Henderson: Right.
Rick: Let's go, Jonathan.
Jonathan: Er, well, I thought I could just stay at the fort, and er...reconnoiter...
Rick: Now!
Jonathan: Yeah, right, (To Americans) we're just going to rescue the, er, Egyptologist...

View Quote Evelyn: When I saw him alive at Hamunaptra, he called me "Anck-Su-Namun." And just now when we were at Mr. Burn's quarters, he tried to kiss me.
Curator Terrence Bey:It's because of his love for Anck-Su-Namun that he was cursed. Apparently, even after 3000 years...
Ardeth: He's still in love with her.
Evelyn: Yes, that is very romantic, but what has it got to do with me?
Ardeth: perhaps he will once again try to raise her from the dead.
Curator Terrence Bey: Yes. And it appears he has already chosen his human sacrifice (He and Ardeth look pointedly at Evelyn)
Jonathan: Bad luck, old mum.

View Quote Evelyn: You told me you got it on a dig down in Thebes!
Johnathan: Yes, well, I was mistaken.
Evie: You lied to me!
Jonathan: I lie to everybody, what makes you so special?
Evelyn: I am your sister!
Jonathan: Yes, well, that just makes you more gullible.

View Quote Evie: (drunk) You're wondering what is a place like me doing in a girl like this?
Rick: Yeah, something like that.
Evie: Well, Egypt is in my blood. [shows picture in locket] You see, my father was a very, very famous explorer. And he loved Egypt so much, he married my mother, who was an Egyptian and an adventurer herself.
Rick: Yeah, I get your father, I get your mother. [points to Jonathan] I get him, but what are you doing here?
Evie: [offended] Look, I...I may not be an explorer, or, or an adventurer, or a treasure-seeker, or a gunfighter, Mr. O'Connell, but I am proud of what I am!
Rick: And what is that?
Evie: I...am a librarian! [drops to her knees] I'm going to kiss you...Mr O'Connell.
Rick: Call me Rick.
Evie: [Grins] Rick. [leans in closer but passes out]

View Quote Evie: By the way, why did you kiss me?
Rick: (while loading handgun) I was about to be hanged; it seemed like a good idea at the time.
Evie: Ooh! (angrily storms off)
Rick: (confused) What? What did I say?

View Quote Evie: I think this may be the Book of the Dead.
Rick: The Book of the Dead? Are you sure you wanna be playing around with this thing?
Evie: It's just a book. No harm ever came from reading a book.
(wind blows eerily, as it has several times during tense conversations)
Rick: ...That happens a lot around here.

View Quote Evie: Mister O'Connell, can you look me in the eye, and guarantee me that this isn't all some kind of a flimflam? Because I am warning you...
Rick O'Connell: You're 'warning me'? Lady, let me put it to you this way. My whole damn garrison believed in this city so much, that - without orders - they marched halfway across Libya and into Egypt just to 'find' that city. And when we got there...all we found was sand, and blood. (Evie looks stunned) Lemme get your bags.
Jonathan: [to Evie] Yes, you're right. Filthy, rude, complete scoundrel, nothing to like there at all.

View Quote Evie: You know, nasty little fellows such as yourself always get their comeuppance.
Beni: (scoffs, then serious) They do?
Evie: Oh, yes. Always.

View Quote Evie: You're saying you were actually in Hamunaptra?
Rick: Yeah, I was there.
Evie: You swear?
Rick: Every damn day.

View Quote Hangman: Any last requests, pig?
Rick: Yeah. Loosen the knot and let me go.
Hangman: (hesitates, then in Arabic) Shall I let him go?
Warden: Yahemar, of course you don't let him go!
