Robert Morley: The King of Hearts

Quotes 

• [during the Knave's trial] 

  The King of Hearts : [to the jury]  Have we a verdict? Have we a verdict?

  [as the jury is deliberating, Alice stands up, indignant] 

  Alice : You haven't gotten the evidence yet!

  The King of Hearts : Silence!

  [bangs gavel] 

  Alice : [Alice is silent for a moment, then clutches her stomach]  Oooh.

  The Gryphon : [concerned]  What's the matter? What's the matter?

  [the court's eyes are on Alice as she stands worriedly; suddenly she begins to grow] 

  The Black Cat : [astonished]  You're growing, young lady!

  Alice : But I didn't eat a piece of mushroom or drink anything!

  The Gryphon : There's no doubt about it... you're growing up!

  [Alice now stands at 50 feet tall] 

• Queen of Hearts : Didn't I tell you this morning that heads would roll?

  The King of Hearts : Yes, indeed you did, dear. But, you know, it's an extraordinary thing. Heads do not roll as they used to. Nowadays they just plunk down on the ground and stay there.
