Ferris Bueller's Day Off
 

 

Ferris Bueller:
I do have a test today, that wasn't bullsh**. It's on European Socialism. I mean, really, what's the point? I'm not European. I don't plan on being European. So, who gives a crap if they're Socialists? They could be fascist anarchists, it still wouldn't change the fact that I don't own a car.

Ferris Bueller:
The key to faking out the parents is the clammy hands. It's a good non-specific symptom. I'm a big believer in it. A lot of people will tell you a good phoney fever is a deadlock, but you get a nervous mother, you could wind up in a doctor's office--that's worse than school. You fake a stomach cramp, and when you're bent over, moaning and wailing, you lick your palms. It's a little childish and stupid, but then so is high school.
-----
Ferris Bueller:
Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
-----
Ferris Bueller:
A person should not believe in an "-ism," he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me."
-----
Ferris Bueller:
This is my ninth sick day this semester. It's getting pretty tough coming up with new illnesses. If I go for ten, I'm probably gonna have to barf up a lung. So, I better make this one count.
-----
Ferris Bueller:
[W]e can't pick up Sloane in your car. Mr. Rooney would never believe Mr. Peterson drives that piece of sh**.
Cameron Frye:
Not a "piece of sh**."
Ferris Bueller:
It is a piece of sh**. Don't worry about it. I don't even have a piece of sh**. I have to envy yours.
-----
Cameron Frye:
The 1961 Ferrari, two-fifty GT California. Less than a hundred were made. My father spent three years restoring this car. It is his love, it is his passion . . .
Ferris Bueller:
It is his fault he didn't lock the garage.
-----
Jeanie Bueller:
[T]his is not a phoney phone call. There is an intruder: male, Caucasian, possibly armed, certainly weird, in my kitchen. My, my, my name is Bueller . . . look, it's real nice that you hope my brother is feeling better. But, I'm in danger, okay? I'm very cute, I'm very alone, and I'm very protective of my body--I do not want it violated or killed, alright? I need help! Speaking in English?! Dickhead!
-----
Ferris Bueller:
A) You can never go too far. B) If I'm gonna get busted, it is not gonna be by a guy like that.
-----
Ferris Bueller:
I asked for a car, I got a computer. How's that for being born under a bad sign?

Cameron Frye:
Ferris, my father loves this car more than life itself.
Ferris Bueller:
A man with priorities so far out of whack doesn't deserve such a fine automobile.
-----
Ferris Bueller:
Pardon my French, but Cameron is so tight that if you stuck a lump of coal up his ass, in two weeks you'd have a diamond.
-----
Sloane Peterson:
Cameron, what's gonna happen to it? It's in a garage.
Cameron Frye:
It could get wrecked, stolen, scratched, breathed on wrong, a pigeon could sh** on it. Who knows?
-----
Ferris Bueller:
I'm takin' the day off. Now get dressed and come on over.

-----
Jeanie Bueller:
You're letting him stay home? I can't believe this! If I was bleeding out my eyes you guys would make me go to school.
-----
Ferris Bueller:
How could I possibly be expected to handle school on a day like this?
-----
Edward R. Rooney:
[T]he example he sets is a first class ticket to nowhere!
-----
Ferris Bueller:
They bought it. Incredible. One of the worst performances of my career, and they never doubted it for a second.
-----
Cameron Frye:
Ferris Bueller, you're my hero.
-----
Ferris Bueller:
Cameron, dear friend, you thought we wouldn't have any fun. Shame on you.
-----
Ferris Bueller:
Four-thousand restaurants in the downtown area, I pick the one my father goes to.
