• [repeated line] 

  Frosty : Happy birthday!

• Frosty : Happy birthday! Hey, I said my first words. But... But snowmen can't talk.

  [chuckles] 

  Frosty : All right, come on now, what's the joke? Could - could I really be alive?

• Traffic Cop : Aaall right, didn't you see that traffic light?

  Frosty : What's a traffic light?

  Traffic Cop : Up there on that lamppost.

  Frosty : What's a lamppost?

  Traffic Cop : Ohh, so you want a ticket, wise guy?

  Frosty : I'd love one. To the North Pole, please.

  Traffic Cop : Huh?

• Frosty : [after he and Karen enter the greenhouse]  Phew! Stay in here much longer and I'll really make a splash in the world.

• Frosty : I mean - I can make words. I can move... I can juggle... I can sweep... and I can count to ten. One, two, three, four, five, nine, six, eight... Well, I can count to five.

  [chuckles] 

  Frosty : What do you know? I'm even ticklish. In fact, I'm all livin'! I *am* alive! What a neat thing to happen to a nice guy like me.

• Frosty : Uh-oh!

  Karen (later airings) : What's the matter, Frosty?

  Frosty : Whew! Is there a thermometer around here?

  Karen (later airings) : Over there in the wall. Why?

  Frosty : [looks at the thermometer]  Oh. I was afraid of that. The thermometer's getting red. I hate red thermometers.

  Karen (later airings) : Why, Frosty?

  Frosty : 'Cause when the thermometer gets all reddish, the temperature goes up. And when the temperature goes up, I start to melt! And when I start to melt, I get all wishy-washy.

• Frosty : Are you coming to the North Pole, too?

  Karen (later airings) : I'm sure my mother won't mind, as long as I'm home in time for supper.

• Narrator : Now actually, a refrigerated boxcar was a splendid way to travel. Splendid, that is, if one is a snowman or a furry coated rabbit. But for Karen...

  [Karen sneezes] 

  Frosty : Are you cold, Karen? Now that's a silly question. You wouldn't be sneezing if you weren't cold.

  Karen (later airings) : [shivering]  Well... just - a lit - a little.

  [sneezes] 

• Frosty : It's got to be all warm and snug inside for those Christmas flowers to grow so beautiful. Let's go in.

  Karen (later airings) : Oh, but... but you'll melt.

  Frosty : Just a little. I'll only stay inside for a minute. Besides, I've been meaning to take off a little weight, anyway.

• Frosty : Hocus, speak to the animals. See if they won't all pitch in and build a fire for Karen.

• Professor Hinkle : Now, give me that hat, or else.

  Frosty : Or else - what?

  Professor Hinkle : Ohhh, well, don't bother me with details; give me that hat!
