Winnie the Pooh : Is anybody at home?
[no answer]
Winnie the Pooh : What I said was, "Is anybody at home?"
Rabbit : No.
Winnie the Pooh : Bother. Isn't there anybody here at all?
Rabbit : [hurriedly puts dishes away] Nobody!
Winnie the Pooh : Must be somebody there, because *somebody* must have said "Nobody."

Narrator : So Pooh ate and ate and ate and ate and ate and ate and ate and ate and ate, *chuckle* until at last he said to Rabbit in a rather sticky voice...
Winnie the Pooh : [in a rather sticky voice] I must be going now. Goodbye, Rabbit.
Rabbit : Well, goodbye, if you're sure you won't have any more.
Winnie the Pooh : [turns to leave then stops] *Is* there any more?
Rabbit : No, there isn't.
Winnie the Pooh : I thought not.
Winnie the Pooh : [tries to climb out the front door but is stuck] Oh, oh, help and bother! I'm stuck.
Rabbit : Oh, dear. Oh, gracious. Oh. Well, it all comes from eating too much.
Winnie the Pooh : It all comes from not having front doors big enough!

Rabbit : [drawing on Pooh's backside when he's stuck in Rabbit's door] Oh Pooh! You messed up my moose!

Rabbit : Why did I ever invite that bear to lunch? Why, oh, why, oh, why?

[Tigger has been freed from the tree after promising never to bounce again]
Tigger : [ecstatic] Oh, I'm so happy, I feel like bouncing!
[he leaps into the air to bounce, but Rabbit stops him in mid-leap]
Rabbit : Ah-ah-ah! You promised, you promised!
Tigger : [falling back down sadly] Oh, I did, didn't I? You mean I-I can't ever bounce again?
Rabbit : Never!
Tigger : [traumatized] Never?
[he lips quivers]
Tigger : N-Not even just - one teensy-weensy bounce?
Rabbit : [defiantly] Not even a smidgen of a bounce!
-
Rabbit : He budged! Hooray! "Chistopher Crabin!" Uh, uh, "Chrostofer Raban!" He bidged! He badged! He booged! Today's the day!

Christopher Robin : You're next, Tigger. Jump!
Tigger : Er, *jump*?
[chuckles sarcastically as he shakes his head]
Tigger : Tiggers don't jump, they bounce.
Winnie the Pooh : Then bounce down.
Tigger : Don't be "ridickorous"; Tiggers only bounce up!
Christopher Robin : You can climb down, Tigger.
Tigger : Ah, but tiggers can't climb down, uh, uh, because, uh... oh, oh their tails get in the way!
Rabbit : Hooray! That settles it. If he won't jump, and he can't climb down, then we'll just have to leave him up there forever!

[Gopher is about to give Pooh his pot of honey, even though Pooh is stuck in Rabbit's door, but Rabbit grabs it first]
Rabbit : No, no, no, no, no! Not one drop!
Winnie the Pooh : But Rabbit, I wasn't going to eat it. I was just gonna taste it.
Rabbit : I'll taste it for you!
-
Tigger : Hello, Rabbit! I'm Tigger! T-I-double guh...
Rabbit : Please, please, don't spell it! Oh dear, oh dear, just... just look at my beautiful garden!
Tigger : Yyyyyuck! And messy, isn't it?
Rabbit : Messy? Messy? It's *ruined*! It's ruined, Tigger! Oh, why don't you ever stop bouncing?
Tigger : Why? That's what tiggers do best! Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

Winnie the Pooh : Uh, R-Rabbit?
Rabbit : Yes?
Winnie the Pooh : Say, Rabbit, how would it be if as soon as we're outside of this old pit, we just try to find it again?
Rabbit : [baffled] What's the good of that?
Winnie the Pooh : Well, y'see, we keep looking for home, but we keep finding this pit, so I just thought that if we looked for this pit, we might find home.
Rabbit : Hm, I don't see much sense in that - if I walked away from this pit, then walked back to it - of course I shall find it! I'll prove it to you! Wait here!
[marches away]
