• Carrie : [after being given the handle of "Frog" by Bandit]  Why?

  Bandit : Because you're always hoppin around. And you're kinda cute, like a frog. And I'd like t'jump ya!

• Carrie : You have a great profile.

  Bandit : Yeah, I do, don't I? Especially from the side.

  Carrie : Well, at least we agree on something.

  Bandit : Yeah. We both like half of my face.

• [Communicating through the C.B. radio] 

  Bandit : Sheriff, uh, Buford T. Justice, please.

  Buford T. Justice : Who there?

  Bandit : This is Bandit Darville talkin'.

  Buford T. Justice : Where are you, you sumbitch?

  Bandit : Before I tell you where I am, Sheriff, there's just one thing I wanna say. You must be part coon-dog, 'cause I've been chased by the best of them, and son, you make 'em look like they're all runnin' in slow motion. I just wanna say that.

  Buford T. Justice : Well, thank you, Mr. Bandit. And as the pursuer, may I say you're the goddamnedest pursuee I've ever pursued. Now that the mutual bullshit is over, WHERE ARE YOU, YOU SUMBITCH?

  Bandit : Well, I'm right down at the bottom of the hill, Sheriff. I'm about 6-foot-8, in a cowboy outfit, got a little pygmy standing right beside me dressed just like me. You can't miss me. 10-4.

  [Buford looks down the hill] 

  Bandit : You know what? Scratch that. I can't lie to you, Sheriff. You're too good a man. Look over your left shoulder.

  [Buford turns, and sees the Bandit] 

  Bandit : We're on our way to Boston to pick up some clam chowder. Bye-bye!

  Carrie : No hard feelings, Junior!

  [the Bandit drives off, but Buford follows on his wreck of a car] 

  Buford T. Justice : I'm not givin' up! I'm not givin' up! I'm never gonna give up! I'm never gonna give up! I'll get you, you sumbitch!

  Junior : [running after the car]  Daddy, wait for me! Don't leave me! Who's gonna hold your hat?

• Carrie : Don't you ever take off that hat?

  Bandit : I take my hat off for one thing, and one thing only.

  Carrie : Oh...

  [beat] 

  Carrie : Take your hat off.

  [Bandit looks stunned] 

  Carrie : If you want to...

  Bandit : I want to.

• Bandit : Well, go, girl, go!

  Carrie : [She is driving]  I'm goin', I'm goin! I got the metal to the pedal and the thing to the floor!

• Bandit : Cledus, get the money.

  Cledus Snow : Yeah, how 'bout the money?

  Little Enos : How 'bout double or nothin'?

  Cledus Snow : How 'bout forgettin' it?

  Bandit : Wait a minute. What about double or nothin'?

  Little Enos : You run up to Boston, and bring back some clam chowder for me and my daddy.

  Carrie : You're on.

  Bandit : Uh, you're on.

  Big Enos : In 18 hours?

  Bandit : You're still on.

  Cledus Snow : WHAT? You're *crazy*! And I'm *divorced*!

• [Bandit has just used a broken bridge to jump a river] 

  Carrie : That was great! I want to jump something else! I want to jump a car, or a house, I wanna jump something!

  Bandit : [still shaking]  Then jump me!

• Bandit : [Bandit and Frog walking through the wooded area]  When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the country you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.

  Carrie : Mr Bandit, you have a lyrical way of cutting through the bullshit.

  Bandit : And you have a unique way with the English language, Miss Frog.

• Carrie : Actually, my heaviest relationship was with an acid-rock singer... named Robert Crumly. We were together, oh, 8 1/2 days. God, I really thought that was it.

  Bandit : And?

  Carrie : One day, I came home and found him in the shower... with a girl... and her mother!

  Bandit : Well, at least he kept it in the family.

• Carrie : Would a cop taking a leak on the side of the road interest you?

  Bandit : [looking]  Yes it would... He was taking a 10-100

  Carrie : Well that's better than a 10-*2*00

  [both laugh] 

• Bandit : [commenting on Carrie's legs]  Well, cowboys love fat calves.

  Carrie : They're not fat!

  Bandit : Well, they're bigger then mine.

  Carrie : Do we really wanna talk about legs?

  Bandit : Well, one of us does. Otherwise we...

  Carrie : Smartass!

• Bandit : What the hell was that?

  Carrie : A left. Or a half a U.

• Bandit : Cledus, this is Frog.

  Cledus : Hello, Frog, meet Fred.

  Carrie : Hey, Fred.

  Bandit : [hands Cledus a bag]  This is for Fred.

  Cledus : [hands bag to Carrie]  Frog, feed Fred.

  Carrie : Fine.

• Bandit : What's a Texas county mountie doing in Arkansas?

  Cledus Snow : I don't know.

  Carrie : I don't know.

  [Bandit looks at her] 

  Carrie : I don't know!

  Bandit : [on the CB]  Well, who the heck knows?

  Cledus Snow : I really don't know.

• Carrie : I think I just went 10-100.

  Bandit : Well that's better than 10-200.

  Carrie : [a little flustered]  Yes, that's true.

  [they both laugh] 

• Carrie : I think I'm in love with your belt buckle.

• Carrie : Well, what are we going to do when we go home?

  Bandit : Go to bed... for a week.

  Carrie : Good idea!

  Bandit : ...And sleep!

  Carrie : Wanna bet?

• Bandit : Sorry. I don't wanna get married.

  Carrie : Terrific. That makes two of us.

• Bandit : Wanna do a little pond-hopping, Frog?

  Carrie : Ah, swell.

• Carrie : Does this thing move?

  Bandit : Oh yeah!
