Quotes6

  • Somerset Frisby: Well, I guess you might just as well know now as later. Only accomplishment I got, you fellas evidently overlooked, and well that is I'm the goldarnedest liar that ever hit the pike. Ha! I spin the biggest yarns west of the Rockies! Now, I don't mean exaggeration, I mean lies. L-I-E-S, Lies.
  • Alien: Mr. Frisby, there are some terms that we cannot relate to our own language. This word, "lie" that you mentioned.
  • Somerset Frisby: You mean that anything that anybody tells you just goes without saying that, well, it's the truth? Hence, everything that I told you, you believe?
  • Mitchell: Tell us one of them real whoppers.
  • Scanlan: Where you been the last couple of hours? Did you invent somethin' or maybe took a quick trip to the moon, huh?
  • Somerset Frisby: Now, you know you ain't very far wrong? Do you know who them fellas was out there in that car? Well I'll tell ya who they was. They was from outer space.
  • Somerset Frisby: Man, the last time I saw anything that looked like you, I'd been four days on the corn jug.
  • Somerset Frisby: This is the truth! Honest, honest! Do you know how I got away? I just took out my harmonica, blew a couple of chords, and they just fainted dead away.
  • Alien: You see, Mr. Frisby, our assignment here was to secure a representative Earth specie, hopefully, the most brilliant we could find. There seems to be no question that your accomplishments are far and away more extensive that any other human being on Earth.
  • Somerset Frisby: Mine? Frisby's? Now wait a minute, wait a minute. I'm just an old country boy with a big mouth.
