Jessica D. Stone: Stanley Griff

Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Stanley Griff : [pointing]  Look, everybody! There it is! I can see the farm!

• Dennis : I know we're lost... but, believe me, there's no point in running around like a bunch of chickens.

  Stanley Griff : I guess you're right, but what should we do instead?

  Lester Goldberg : Yeah. Waddle around like a bunch of ducks?

  Dennis : Well, hmm. You may actually have a point there, Lester. If you'll notice, each one of those baby ducklings is doing a good job of staying close to its parents. And you can bet none of them ever get lost either.

  ["Doing Like Ducks"] 

  Stanley Griff : Dennis, I think I want to be a farmer when I grow up.

  Dennis : Sounds good to me. What kind of animals would you have on your farm?

  Stanley Griff : Oh, you know... horses, sheep, cows. And maybe a great big pond in the middle, so we could have lots and lots of ducks.

  Dennis : A pond! How terrific! Oh yes, I always wanted my own pond... with beautiful aquatic foliage and - and an algae-free filter. And angelfish. I love angelfish. And, oh, a waterfall would be nice.

  ["Speedy Does It"] 

  Mimi : [as lively music plays]  Hey, Stanley, you should take break from stretchin' and really listen to the music.

  Dennis : Yes, it's really, uh... rockin'.

  Stanley Griff : No, thanks. I'm getting ready for...

  Mimi , Dennis : The 8-legged race.

  Dennis : Yes. We know, Stanley. You've been talking about the 8-legged race quite a bit today.

• Dennis : The road-runner eats many different types of food each day, giving it the energy it needs to run from predators, or jog next to the road.

  Stanley Griff : Oh, that's right, I didn't have lunch today. I was so interested in stretching for the race and looking at the trophy, I didn't have anything to eat.

  ["Speedy Does It"] 

  Stanley Griff : Hey, Dennis, you mind if I leave the lights on a little longer?

  Dennis : Oh? Why is that, Stanley?

  Stanley Griff : [yawns]  Just want to look at the trophy for a while longer.

  Dennis : Stanley, did I fail to mention that roadrunners also sleep?

  Stanley Griff : Oh, Dennis!

  Dennis : Good night, 8-legged, road-running, lunch-eating... 8 - 8 runnered, legging, lunch-eating, oh bother. Good night, Stanley.

  Stanley Griff : Good night, Dennis.
