Alfred Hitchcock Famous Lines


Here are a few of our favorite lines from Alfred Hitchcock.


Norman Bates (Psycho):
"Uh-uh, Mother-m-mother, uh, what is the phrase? She isn't quite herself today."

Kathy Brenner (The Birds):
"He's got a client who shot his wife in the head six times. Six times, can you imagine it? I mean, even twice would be overdoing it, don't you think?"

Scottie Ferguson (Vertigo):
"Did he tell you exactly what to do, what to say? You were a very apt pupil too, weren't you? You were a very apt pupil! Well why did you pick on me? Why me?"

Jennifer Rogers (The Trouble With Harry):
"He looked exactly the same when he was alive, only he was vertical."

Frances Stevens (To Catch A Thief):
"From where I sat it looked as though you were conjugating some irregular verbs."

Lisa Carol Fremont (Rear Window):
"Jeff, you know if someone came in here, they wouldn't believe what they'd see. You and me with long faces, plunged into despair because we found out a man didn't kill his wife. We're two of the most frightening ghouls I've ever known."

Tony Wendice (Dial M for Murder):
"People don't commit murder on credit."

Bruno Anthony (Strangers on a Train):
"Everyone has somebody that they want to put out of the way. Oh now, surely Madam, you're not going to tell me that there hasn't been a time that you didn't want to dispose of someone. Your husband, for instance."
