The Amos 'n Andy Show

1951

(repeated line) Andrew Hogg Brown: Holy Mackarel, Kingfish!

Algonquin J. Calhoun: (Kingfish is trying to get Calhoun to help him dupe Andy) What? Do you think I is low down enough to deceive Brother Andy? (begins hitting fist on desk) Do you think I is crooked enough! Do you think I is spineless enough! (Kingfish puts $20 on the desk) Uh, well, just call me Jellyfish (pockets the $20)

George 'Kingfish' Stevens: (accepting an award from his lodge brothers) Thank you, brothers; and, in the words of that great American poet Ralph Walnut Emerson, you all has my infernal gratitude.

(Kingfish is on trial) District Attorney: Mr Brown, would you tell the court how you became acquainted with George Stevens? Andrew Hogg Brown: Yes sir. I was at the race track and when I reached back for my wallet, I shook hands with Mr Stevens.

(Calhoun is delivering his closing argument in Kingfish's trial) Algonquin J. Calhoun: Your honor, you have heard the prosecution tell you that my client is dishonest. Your honor, it's easy for him to say that because my client is a crook! (Kingfish puts his head in his hands)

(Kingfish had told Andy he can teach him to fly a plane) George 'Kingfish' Stevens: You see, Andy; the first thing you need to fly is excellent eyesight. Now, how much is 10 plus 10? (writes problem on the board) Andrew Hogg Brown: 20. George 'Kingfish' Stevens: Ok; now, what is ten times 2? Andrew Hogg Brown: 20. George 'Kingfish' Stevens: Oh, you see Andy; you has twenty-twenty vision.

Sapphire's Mama: George, why do you need a clock? You ain't got no where to go and there ain't nobody gonna care if you get there.
