Mr. Dawes Jr: Ah, there you are, Banks. I want to congratulate you. Capital bit of humor, wooden leg named Smith! [pauses looks a bit confused] Mr. Dawes Jr: Or, Jones, whatever it was. Father died laughing! George Banks: Oh, I'm so sorry, sir! Mr. D...
[Uncle Albert had been asked if there is a way to get down from being up in the air] Uncle Albert: There is a way. And frankly, I don't like to think of it, because you have to think of something sad. Mary Poppins: Then do get on with it, please. Unc...
Mary Poppins: Never judge things by their appearance... even carpetbags. I'm sure I never do.
Mary Poppins: People who get their feet wet must learn to take their medicine.
George Banks: [singing] A British bank is run with precision. A British home requires nothing less! Tradition, discipline, and rules must be the tools! Without them: disorder, catastrophe! Anarchy! In short, you have a ghastly mess!
Mary Poppins: I beg your pardon, are you ill? George Banks: I hope not.
Uncle Albert: Speaking of weather, the other day when it was so cold, a friend of mine went to buy some long underwear. The shopkeeper said to him, "How long do you want it?" And my friend said, "Well, from about September to March."
Michael: I want it to feed the birds. Mr. Dawes Sr.: Fiddlesticks, boy! Feed the birds and what have you got? Fat birds! But... [sings] Mr. Dawes Sr.: If you invest your tuppence wisely in the bank, safe and sound, soon that tuppence, safely invested...
Constable Jones: [on phone] That's what I said, sir. Go fly a kite! [pause] Constable Jones: Well, no, sir, no. I didn't mean you *personally.*
Mary Poppins: [singing] Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down, the medicine go down, the medicine go down. Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down, in the most delightful way.
Bert: Bert'll take care of you, just like I was your own father. Now who's after you? Jane: Father is.
Mary Poppins: [singing] Stay awake, don't rest your head. Don't lie down upon your bed. While the moon drifts in the skies... Stay awake, don't close your eyes. Though the world is fast asleep, though your pillow's soft and deep, you're not sleepy as...
Mrs. Banks: But you're always saying that you wanted a cheerful and pleasant household. Mr. Banks: Winifred, I should like to make a slight differentiation between the word cheerful and just plain giddy irresponsibility.
George Banks: [Going to see the bank] Remember that the bank is a quiet and decorous place, and we must be on our best behavior. Michael: But I thought it was your bank. George Banks: Yes, well, I'm one of the junior officers, so in a sense it is. So...
Mary Poppins: [as Jane and Michael run down the path in the chalk drawing] Don't fall and smudge the drawing!
Lady in the Bank: There's something wrong, the bank won't give someone their money. Depositor: Well, I'm going to get mine. Come along, young man, every penny!
Bert: Up where the smoke is all billowed and curled / 'Tween pavement and stars is the chimney sweep world / When there's hardly no day, nor hardly no night / There's things half in shadow and halfway in light / On the rooftops of London / Coo, what ...
George Banks: Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with facts.
