Quotes 

  • Benjamin : Listen to me. What happened between Mrs. Robinson and me was nothing. It didn't mean anything. We might just as well have been shaking hands.

    Mr. Robinson : Shaking hands? Well, that's not saying much for my wife, is it?

  • Mr. Robinson : Ben, can I say something to you?

    Benjamin : What?

    Mr. Robinson : Uh, how long have we known each other now? How long have you and I known each other? How long have your dad and I been partners?

    Benjamin : Quite a while.

    Mr. Robinson : I watched you grow up, Ben.

    Benjamin : Yes, sir.

    Mr. Robinson : In many ways, I feel as though you were my own son.

    Benjamin : Thank you.

    Mr. Robinson : So I hope you won't mind my giving you a friendly piece of advice.

    Benjamin : I'd like to hear it.

    Mr. Robinson : Ben, I think... I think you ought to be taking it a little easier right now than you seem to be. Sow a few wild oats. Take things as they come. Have a good time with the girls and so forth.

    Mrs. Robinson : [Mrs. Robinson joins them; Ben abruptly stands up]  Don't get up.

    Mr. Robinson : I was just telling... Ben. Ben, here, that he ought to sow a few wild oats. Have a good time while he can. You think that's sound advice?

    Mrs. Robinson : Yes, I do.

    Benjamin : I've got to go.

    Mr. Robinson : You have yourself a few flings this summer. I bet you're quite a ladies' man, huh?

    Benjamin : Oh, no.

    Mr. Robinson : [taken aback]  What?

    Mr. Robinson : You look to me like the kind of guy who has to fight 'em off.

    Mr. Robinson : [to his wife]  Now, doesn't he look to you like the kind of guy who has to fight them off?

    Mrs. Robinson : Yes, he does.

  • Mr. Robinson : Do you ummm... do you want to tell me *why* you did it

    Benjamin : Mr. Robinson!

    Mr. Robinson : Do you have a special grudge against me? Do you feel a particularly strong resentment? Is there something I've said that's caused this contempt, or is it just things I stand for that you despise?

  • Mr. Robinson : [after Ben has driven Mrs. Robinson home, Mr. Robinson unexpectedly comes home early]  Is that Ben's car in front?

    Benjamin : [nervously]  Yes, sir. I drove... I drove Mrs. Robinson home. She wanted me to drive her home so I drove her home.

    Mr. Robinson : Swell. I appreciate.

    Benjamin : She's upstairs. She wanted me to wait down here till you got home.

    Mr. Robinson : Standing guard over the old castle, are you?

    Benjamin : Yes, sir.

  • Mr. Robinson : All right, come on, let's have a nightcap together.

    Mr. Robinson : [reaches for a bottle]  Scotch?

    Benjamin : Bourbon.

    Mr. Robinson : Ben... How old are you now?

    Benjamin : Twenty. I'll be 21 next week.

    Mr. Robinson : [as he fixes drinks for both of them]  That's a hell of a good age to be.

    Benjamin : Thank you. Thank you very much, sir.

    Mr. Robinson : I, uh... I wish I was that age again. Because, Ben...

    Benjamin : Sir?

    Mr. Robinson : You'll never be young again.

    Benjamin : I know.

  • Mrs. Robinson : Benjamin, I thought I made myself perfectly clear about this...

    Benjamin : Look, I have no intention of taking your precious daughter out again in her life, so don't get upset about it!

    Mrs. Robinson : I am. I'm *extremely* upset about it, Benjamin.

    Elaine : [Mr. Robinson comes in with Elaine next to him]  Hello.

    Benjamin : Hello.

    Mr. Robinson : [playfully giving advice to Elaine about Benjamin]  Well, I want you to keep your wits about you tonight. You never know what *tricks* Ben picked up back there in the east. Heh heh...

  • Mr. Robinson : [in Ben's boarding house room]  All right, now listen to this. I don't know whether I can prosecute, but I think I can. I think I can get you behind bars if you ever *look* at my daughter again. Now, I've seen Elaine, and I've made damn sure you can't get to her. Stay away from me, Ben!

    Mr. Robinson : [heading for the door]  I don't want to mince words with you. As far as Elaine is concerned, you're to get her out of your filthy mind right now! Is that *perfectly* clear to you? And that's all, Ben. You'll pardon me if *I* don't shake hands with you.

    Mr. Robinson : I think you are filth. I think you are scum. You are a degenerate!

    [heads down the stairs, brushes past Mr. McCleery] 

  • Mr. Robinson : [in anger for ruining Elaine's wedding]  You punk! You crazy punk! I'll kill you!
