Quotes 

  • Leon Schlesinger : Hello, Porky. Come on in.

    Porky Pig : Hello, Mr. Schl-Schle-Schles-g-g-g-g... Hello, Leon.

    Leon Schlesinger : Well, Porky, what's on your mind? What can I do for you?

    Porky Pig : You see, I've been in cartoons a long time, and I was thinking, t-that if I had a chance to act in features... What's Errol Flynn got that I haven't?

    Leon Schlesinger : You mean to say you want to get out of your cartoon contract?

    Porky Pig : Y-yeah, t-that's right.

    Leon Schlesinger : Well, if that's the way you feel about it, it's all right with me. You sure you know what you're doing?

    Porky Pig : Y-yes.

    Leon Schlesinger : Well, if you say so, I'll tear up your contract, if that's what you want.

    Porky Pig : Y-yes.

    Leon Schlesinger : Well, if that's the way you feel about it, it's all right with me.

    [Leon tears up contract and throws it in wastebasket] 

    Leon Schlesinger : [Shakes hands with Porky]  Okay, Porky. Don't forget me when you're a star.

    [Porky leaves] 

    Leon Schlesinger : He'll be back.

    Porky Pig : Why, I'm P-P-Porky Pig.

    Studio Guard : Oh, so you're Porky Pig.

    [Porky nods] 

    Studio Guard : And you wanna go in there.

    [Porky nods] 

    Studio Guard : And you want me to be a nice guy and let you go in there.

    [Porky nods] 

    Studio Guard : So I can lose my job.

    [Porky starts nodding, catches himself and shakes his head] 

    Studio Guard : Well, I'm not a nice guy, and I'm not gonna let you in, and I'm not gonna lose my job, but I am gonna throw you out!

    [Guard picks up Porky, car and all, and tosses him out] 

    Studio Guard : Get out and stay out!

  • Daffy Duck : Psst. Hey, Porky. Say, you want a good job?

    Porky Pig : B-but I got a good j-jo-j-position.

    Daffy Duck : Oh, you call this a job? Working in cartoons? Phoo! I know where you can get a job in features, as Bette Davis' leading man. Three grand a week.

    Porky Pig : Oh, I'm n-n-not good enough for that. Besides, I g-g-got a contract here.

    Daffy Duck : You can get out of that. Just go up and tell the boss that you wanna quit.

    Porky Pig : D-d-do you think I ought to?

    Daffy Duck : Sure. Come on, come on. You don't get an opportunity like this every day. Come on.
