[last lines] Police Lieutenant: Well, Denham, the airplanes got him. Carl Denham: Oh no, it wasn't the airplanes. It was beauty killed the beast.
Carl Denham: Don't be alarmed, ladies and gentlemen. Those chains are made of chrome steel.
Ann Darrow: I thought you didn't like woman? Jack Driscoll: Yeah, but you're not woman.
Carl Denham: Throw your arms across your eyes and scream, Ann. Scream for your life!
Carl Denham: [chasing after sailor] Hey, come back with those bombs, you s...
Carl Denham: Wait a minute, what about Kong? Jack Driscoll: Well, what about him? Carl Denham: We can here to get a moving picture, and we've found something worth more than all the movies in the world! Captain Englehorn: [incredulous] What? Carl Den...
When I first drove my car down Sunset Strip, I nearly crashed my car gazing at the monolithic ads of various celebrities. They are bigger than King Kong, and more frightening.
Well, the Empire State was about 40' high in the studio. King Kong was a little model about 2' high, and the scenery that he worked in was in proportion to his size.

Sometimes I'd hear things on other people's records and I say I wanted it on my records, but Leslie Kong said, no, it wasn't right and that it wasn't my style.
No film has captivated my imagination more than 'King Kong.' I'm making movies today because I saw this film when I was 9 years old.
Jack Driscoll: [to Ann] Say... I think I love you.
Carl Denham: It's money and adventure and fame. It's the thrill of a lifetime and a long sea voyage that starts at six o'clock tomorrow morning.
Carl Denham: I'm gonna go out and find a girl for my picture - even if I hafta' *marry* one.
