Quotes 

• Eric Cartman : [leading the "gingers" while chanting]  Red Power - Red Power - Red Power - Red Power - Better red than dead - Better red than dead - Better red than dead.

• Ms. Garrison : Okay kids, looks like we only have time for one more speech today, so let's have, uh, Eric.

  Cartman : Thank you, Ms. Garrison. My speech is entitled "Ginger Kids". Children with red hair, light skin, and freckles. We've all seen them. On the playground, at the store, walking on the streets. They creep us out, and make us sick to our stomachs. I'm talking, of course, about Ginger kids.

  [slide projector clicks] 

  Cartman : Aw, sick! Gross! Ginger kids are born with a disease, which causes very light skin, red hair and freckles.

  [projector clicks] 

  Cartman : Aw, nasty, yuck!

  Kyle : What?

  Cartman : This disease is called "Gingervitis". Kids who have Gingervitis cannot be cured.

  [projector clicks] 

  Cartman : Aw sick!

  Cartman : Gross!

  Cartman : Yuck! Because their skin is so light, Ginger kids must avoid the sun.

  [class ooooohs] 

  Kyle : That's not true, fat ass! I have red hair, and I don't have to avoid the sun.

  Cartman : I was getting to that if you'll let me. Some people have red hair, but not light skin and freckles. These people are called daywalkers.

  Butters : Ooooooh, Daywalkers!

  Kyle : This is all a bunch of crap!

  Cartman : Ms. Garrison, I'm really having a difficult time with all these interruptions.

  Kyle : People aren't creeped out by gingers!

  Butters : I am.

  Ms. Garrison : Kyle, if you want to debate Eric, you can do so with your paper tomorrow.

  Kyle : Fine, I will!

  Cartman : Fine, in the meantime, shut your goddamn Daywalker mouth!

  Kyle : Grrrrrrrr!

  Cartman : In conclusion, I wil leave you with this. If you think that the ginger problem is not a serious one...

  Cartman : think again!

• Eric Cartman : [to the assembled "gingers" as he plots to take over the world yet again]  I will not live my life, as a goddam minority!

• Eric Cartman : [waking up and walking across the hallway to the bathroom just before he discovers he's a "ginger" Cartman] 

  [sings] 

  Eric Cartman : You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille...

• Dr. Doctor : Ms Cartman, I know this must be... very difficult for you. I for one can't stand red-haired freckled kids, but you need to understand, there is no cure. Your son will be ginger his whole life. You might want to just... put him down.

• Eric Cartman : And if there's one thing I've learned, it's that the only way to fight hate... is with more hate! We're not the freaks of society, everyone else is!
