Quotes 

  • Bobby Benson : [indicating grave marker during a visit to Arlington]  That's my father. He was killed at Anzio.

    Klaatu : Did all those people die in wars?

    Bobby Benson : Most of 'em. Didn't you ever hear of the Arlington Cemetery?

    Klaatu : No, I'm afraid not.

    Bobby Benson : You don't seem to know much about anything, do you, Mr. Carpenter?

    Klaatu : Well, I'll tell you, Bobby, I've been away a long time. Very far away.

    Bobby Benson : Is it different where you've been? Don't they have places like this?

    Klaatu : Well, they have cemeteries, but not like this one. You see, they don't have any wars.

    Bobby Benson : Gee, that's a good idea.

  • Bobby Benson : [to Klaatu]  I like you Mr. Carpenter. You're a real screwball.

  • Helen : Now, you didn't really see a spaceship, but you thought you did.

    Bobby Benson : I'd never call YOU a liar.

  • Bobby Benson : Department of Commerce. She's a secretary. That man they call a secretary isn't at all. My mom's a REAL secretary.

  • Klaatu : [after reading the Gettysburg Address at the Lincoln Memorial]  Those are great words.

    Klaatu : [turns to look at the statue of Lincoln]  He must have been a great man.

    Bobby Benson : Well sure.

    Klaatu : [walking out of the memorial, then turning to look at Lincoln again]  That's the kind of man I'd like to talk to.

  • Helen : Bobby! Your shoes are soaking!

    Bobby Benson : Yeah. Grass was kinda wet.
