Gusteau: Food always comes to those who love to cook.
Remy: Paris? All this time I’ve been underneath Paris?
Horst: I robbed the second largest bank in France using only a ball-point pen.
Skinner: Welcome to hell.
Colette: We don’t mean to be rude, but… we’re French.
Remy: We’re thieves, and what we’re stealing is, let’s be honest, garbage.
Django: It’s not stealing if no one wants it.
Remy: If no one want’s it, then why are we stealing it?
Remy: No, no, no, no, no! Don’t just hork it down!
Emile: Too late.
Linguini: What should I do now?
Skinner: Kill it!
Linguini: Now?
Skinner: No, not in the kitchen! Are you mad?
Linguini: So this is it. It’s not much but it’s, y’know… not much.
[referring to his home]
Linguini: Can I intrest you in some dessert?
Anton Ego: Don’t you always!
Linguini: What would you like?
Anton Ego: [looks at Remy through the kitchen window] Surprise me.
Remy: This is me. I think it’s apparent that I need to rethink my life a little bit. I can’t help myself. I… I like good food, ok? And… good food is… hard for a rat to find!
Django: It wouldn’t be so hard to find, if you weren’t so picky!
Remy: I don’t wanna eat garbage dad!
Remy: I just lost my family… all my friends… probably forever.
Gusteau: How do you know?
Remy: Well, I… I… You are an illustration, why am I talking to you?
Gusteau: Oh… you just lost your family… all your friends… you are lonely.
Remy: Yeah, well, you’re dead!
Gusteau: Ahh, but that is no match for wishful thinking! If you’re focused on what you’ve left behind, you will not be able to see what lies ahed. Now go up, and look around!
Linguini: You’re the one who was getting fancy with the spices! What did you throw in there? Oregano? No? What, r- uh, rosemary? That’s a spice, isn’t it? Rosemary?
Linguini: I can’t cook, can I?
[Remy shakes head]
Linguini: But you – he, he – you can, right?
[Remy shrugs]
Linguini: Come on, don’t be so modest. You’re a rat, for Pete’s sake.
Skinner: [notices that Linguini is holding a ladle] Move it garbage boy! You are COOKING? HOW DARE YOU COOK in my kitchen! Where did you get such gaul to even attempt to be so monumentally deluded? I should have you drawn and quartered! I’ll do it! I think the law is on my side! Larousse, haul and throw him down, after you put him in the freezer to squeeze the fat out of his brains!
Horst: I robbed the second largest bank in France using only a ball-point pen.
Remy: He’s ruining the soup! And no one’s noticing? It’s your restaurant, do something!
Gusteau: What can I do? I am a figment of your imagination.

does no one know the most profound quote in this movie?
Remy’s dad: The world we live in belongs to the enemy… we must live carefully… we look out for our own kind Remy, when all is said and done we’re all we got…
Remy:NO…
Remy’s Dad: what?
Remy: No, Dad, I don’t believe it… you’re telling me the future is, can only be more of this?
Remy’s Dad: This, is the way things are… you can’t change nature
Remy: Change is nature dad, the part that we can influence.. and it starts when we decide…
Remy’s Dad: where you going?
Remy: with luck… forward
Another quote from the movie is when Linguini fell asleep at home on his couch, the tv drama mentioned something about Paris:
Woman’s voice : Are you? Is this a dream?
Man’s voice : This is not a dream…
Woman’s voice : Why here? why now?
Man’s voice : Why not here? Why not now? There’s no better place to dream than in Paris….
if you are what you eat then i only want to eat the good stuff -Remy
Anton Ego: …Not anyone can become great artist, but great artists can come from anywhere..
Colette: What are you doing?
Linguini: I’m cutting. Vegetables. I’m cutting the vegetables?
Colette: No! You waste energy and time! You think cooking is a cute job, eh? Like Mommy in the kitchen? Well, Mommy never had to face the dinner rush when the orders come flooding in and every dish is different and none are simple and all of the different cooking times but must arrive on the customer’s table at exactly the same time, hot and perfect! Every second counts, and you cannot be Mommy!
