Quotes 

• Queen Elizabeth : [Using the name "Mrs. Johnson"]  My husband is, um... well, he's required to speak publicly.

  Lionel Logue : Perhaps he should change jobs.

  Queen Elizabeth : He can't.

  Lionel Logue : Indentured servitude?

  Queen Elizabeth : Something of that nature, yes.

• Myrtle Logue : [sees the Queen at her dining table, stunned]  You. You...?

  Queen Elizabeth : It's 'Your Majesty' the first time. After that, it's 'ma'am', as in 'ham'. Not 'ma'am', as in 'palm'.

• Lionel Logue : [Bertie is lying on the floor, and Elizabeth is sitting on his chest]  Take good deep breaths...

  [Bertie inhales] 

  Lionel Logue : ...and up comes Her Royal Highness... and slowly exhale...

  [Bertie exhales] 

  Lionel Logue : ...and down comes Her Royal Highness...

  Queen Elizabeth : You all right, Bertie?

  King George VI : Yes.

  Queen Elizabeth : It's actually quite good fun.

• Lionel Logue : Well, we need to have your hubby pop by. Uh, Tuesday would be good. He can give me his personal details, I'll make a frank appraisal, and then we'll take it from there.

  Queen Elizabeth : Doctor, forgive me, ah... I don't have a "hubby," we don't "pop," and nor do we ever talk about our private lives. No, you must come to us.

  Lionel Logue : I'm sorry, Mrs. Johnson - my game, my turf, my rules.

• Lionel Logue : Am I considered the enemy?

  Queen Elizabeth : You will be, if you remain unobliging.

• Queen Elizabeth : [to Winston Churchill, on the hold that Wallis Simpson seems to have on Edward VIII]  Apparently she has certain skills - acquired in an establishment in Shanghai.

• Myrtle Logue : Will their Majesties be staying to dinner?

  Queen Elizabeth : We'd love to - such a treat - but, ah... alas, a... previous engagement. What a pity.

• Queen Elizabeth : My husband has this... mechanical difficulty.
