My favorite quotes from movie Aladdin

You got things to do. Places to go. People to see. Futures to make.

A diamond in the rough.  像未经雕刻的原钻

The boss looks ill-tempered, but he is in fact a diamond in the rough.


The candidate pools were so large it's hard to find a diamond in the rough.

Aladdin: We get by. Every day, I just think things will be different, but it never seems to change. Just sometimes, I feel like I’m…
Jasmine: Trapped. Like you can’t escape what you were born into?
Aladdin: Yes.

Jasmine: You remember my mother used to say, “We would only ever be as happy as our least happy subject.” If she saw what I saw today, she would be heart broken.
Dalia: She would also want you to be safe. And clean. I’ll draw the bath.

Steal an apple, and you’re a thief. Steal a kingdom, and you’re a statesman.

Only weak men stop there. You’re either the most powerful man in the room, or you’re nothing. You, you stumbled upon an opportunity. I can make you rich. Rich enough to impress a princess. But nothing comes for free.

Aladdin: What would I have to do?
Jafar: There’s a cave nearby, and in it, a simple oil lamp. Retrieve it for me, and I will make you wealthy enough to impress a princess. You’re nothing to her. But you could be. Your life begins now, Aladdin.


Jafar: [to Aladdin] The Cave of Wonders. When you enter, you will see more riches than you ever dreamed of. Gold, diamonds, and the lamp. Bring it to me and I will make you rich and free. But take no other treasure, no matter how sorely you are tempted. And you will be tempted.
[as Aladdin approaches the cave, it opens up]
Cave of Wonders: Only one may enter here. One whose worth lies far within. A diamond in the rough.
Jafar: Remember, take nothing but the lamp.

Genie: Where’s your boss?
Aladdin: Um, my boss?
Genie: Look, kid, I’ve been doing this a long time, alright? There’s always a guy, you know. He’s cheated somebody, or buried somebody, or, I mean, you get my point. Where’s that guy?
Aladdin: I know that guy. He’s outside.

Genie: So here’s the basics. Step one, rub the lamp. Step two, say what you want. Step three, there is no step three. See? It’s that easy. You get three wishes. They must begin with rubbing the lamp and saying, “I wish.” Got it?

 I promise you, there’s not enough money and power on earth for you to be satisfied. Good?


Aladdin: Hey, can you make me a prince?
Genie: There’s a lot of gray area in “make me a prince”. I could just make you a prince.
[he uses his magic to create a prince]
Aladdin: Oh, no.
Genie: But you’d be snuggled up with that dude for the rest of your life.
[from the distance]
Prince: Yoh! Y’all seen my palace?


Genie: Stop, stop, stop. I made you look like a prince on the outside, but I didn’t change anything on the inside. Prince Ali got you to the door, but Aladdin has to open it.

Genie: It’s showtime.
Aladdin: No, I’m waiting for the right moment.
Genie: No, no. No waiting. We’re done waiting.
Aladdin: No. I’m in charge, okay? I say when it’s the right moment.

Genie: Wow. I mean, genie magic is really just a facade. At some point, the real character’s always going to shine through. But that’s a good thing, right? Now, she knows.

Jafar: As the old man said, “You should have left Agrabah when you had the chance.” I told you before to think bigger. You could have been the most powerful man in the room. But now, I hold the lamp. I hold the power.
Aladdin: You can’t find what you’re looking for in that lamp, Jafar. I tried and failed, and so will you.
Jafar: You think so? But I am Sultan! I am the greatest sorcerer the world has ever seen. I will create an empire that history cannot ignore. I can destroy cities. I can destroy kingdoms. And I can destroy you.
Aladdin: True. But who made you a sultan? Who made you a sorcerer? There will always be some thing, some man, some being more powerful than you.
Genie: What are you doing?
Aladdin: Genie gave you your power, and he can take it away.
Jafar: He serves me!
Aladdin: For now. But you’ll never have more power than the genie. You said it yourself, you’re either the most powerful in the room, or you’re nothing. You will always be second.
Iago: Second. Second.
Jafar: Second?! Only second? He serves me! I will make sure no one will ever say these words again!


Jafar: I will not forget you, boy! Mark my words. I will not forget what you have done to me.
Iago: Goodbye, Jafar.


Genie: Alright, last wish. Let’s get it.
Aladdin: Okay. Last wish. Genie…
Genie: I’m ready. Hold on. Here we go.
Aladdin: I wish…
Genie: The third and final wish.
Aladdin: I wish to set you free.
Genie: What? Woh. Oh! Wait.
[his genie shackels starts to disappear and becomes human and free]
Genie: Am I… Wait, wait, wait. Um, tell me to do something.
Aladdin: Um, give me some jams.
Genie: Get it yourself? Get your own jams!
[Aladdin and Genie embrace each other]
Genie: Thank you. Thank you.
Aladdin: No. Thank you, Genie. I owe you everything.

Sultan: Sit with me, my child. I’m sorry.
Jasmine: Baba, why are you…?
Sultan: Please, let me finish. I feared losing you, like I lost your mother. All I saw was my little girl, not the woman you have become. You have shown me courage and strength. You are the future of Agrabah. You shall be the next sultan.
[he kisses her hand]
Jasmine: Thank you, Baba.
Sultan: As sultan, you may change the law.
[referring to Aladdin]
Sultan: He is a good man.
[Jamsmine kisses his forehead]
