• Homer 'Doc' Brown : You know, I disliked children all my life. Little monsters - most of them.

  David : It's grownups make 'em that way.

  Homer 'Doc' Brown : Well, I don't know whether I like you very much either. You're about the strangest young fellow I ever met.

  David : Yes, sir. But aren't you a very strange gentleman?

  Homer 'Doc' Brown : Well... that's tit for tat.

• Homer 'Doc' Brown : Well, bless my soul. Why you're not a boy at all. You're a philosopher.

  David : Am I?

  Homer 'Doc' Brown : Well, of course you are. You see things clearly; you answer questions truthfully. Well, you'd be amazed how few grownups can do the same.

• Homer 'Doc' Brown : Hmmm. You never laugh at any of my jokes. Don't you like 'em?

  David : Oh, yes sir. I like jokes.

  Homer 'Doc' Brown : Hmmm.

• Homer 'Doc' Brown : I struck gold - my brother, Ben, and I. And I count that the unluckiest day of my life.

  David : Why?

  Homer 'Doc' Brown : Because money is filthy stuff. I despise it. It corrupts - eats out your heart. It separates brother from brother.

  David : You mean you'd rather be poor?

  Homer 'Doc' Brown : Well, let's say that I, uh, I enjoy my present modest income. I'm free from all the worry that money brings. I have good food, good air, the meadows to walk in. Could I ask for more?

• David : Won't you ever go back?

  [to San Francisco] 

  Homer 'Doc' Brown : Never! The city is a wicked place.

• David : Samuella said you was a gay old blade.
