Quotes 

  • Young Ed Bloom : It was that night I discovered that most things you consider evil or wicked are simply lonely, and lacking in the social niceties.

  • [first lines] 

    Young Ed Bloom : There are some fish that cannot be caught. It's not that they are faster or stronger than other fish, they're just touched by something extra.

  • [When meeting young Sandra Templeton for the first time] 

    Young Ed Bloom : You don't know me but my name is Edward Bloom and I love you.

  • Sandra Bloom : You don't even know me.

    Young Ed Bloom : I have the rest of my life to find out.

  • Karl : I don't want to eat you. I just get so hungry. I'm just too big.

    Young Ed Bloom : Did you ever think that maybe you're not too big, but maybe this town is just too small?

  • Young Ed Bloom : [voice over narration]  It occurred to me then, that perhaps the reason for my growth was I was intended for larger things. After all, a giant man can't have an ordinary-sized life.

  • Young Ed Bloom : There comes a point when any reasonable man will swallow his pride and admit he made a mistake. The truth is... I was never a reasonable man.

  • Young Ed Bloom : Sandra Templeton, I love you and I WILL marry you.

  • Young Ed Bloom : She said that the biggest fish in the river gets that way by never getting caught.

  • Norther Winslow : I've been working on this poem for 12 years.

    Young Ed Bloom : Really?

    Norther Winslow : There's a lot of expectation. I don't wanna disappoint my fans.

    Young Ed Bloom : May I?

    Young Ed Bloom : [Edward reeds the poem on the notebook]  The grass so green Skies so blue. Spectre is really great!

    Young Ed Bloom : It's only three lines long.

    Norther Winslow : This is why you should never show a work in progress.

  • Young Ed Bloom : And what I recall of Sunday school was that the more difficult something became, the more rewarding it was in the end.

  • [Amos returns from the woods after being a wolf for a night] 

    Amos Calloway : Didn't kill anything, did I?

    Young Ed Bloom : A couple of rabbits, but I think one of 'em was already dead.

    Amos Calloway : That would explain the indigestion.

  • Young Ed Bloom : I just saw the woman I'm going to marry. I know it. But I lost her.

    Amos Calloway : Oh, tough break. Well, most men have to get married *before* they lose their wives.

    Young Ed Bloom : I'm gonna spend every day for the rest of my life looking for her. That, or die alone!

    Amos Calloway : Damn, kid. Lemme guess. Real pretty? Reddish-blondish hair? Blue dress?

    Young Ed Bloom : Yeah!

    Amos Calloway : I know her uncle. Friends of the family.

    Young Ed Bloom : Who is she? Where does she live?

    Amos Calloway : Forget it kid, don't waste your time. She's out of your league.

    Young Ed Bloom : What do you mean? You don't even know me.

    Amos Calloway : Sure I do! You were hot shit back in Hickville, but here in the real world, you got squat! You don't have a plan, you don't have a job, you don't have anything except the clothes on your back.

  • Young Ed Bloom : Now I may not have much, but I have more determination then any man you're ever likely to meet.

  • Young Ed Bloom : Your last name is different. You married.

    Jenny : I was 18, he was 28. Turns out it was a big difference.

  • Amos Calloway : I haven't seen a customer this depressed since the elephant sat on that farmer's wife!

    Amos Calloway : [laughs, beat] 

    Amos Calloway : Depressed?

    [Karl laughs] 

    Amos Calloway : See, the big guy likes it.

    Young Ed Bloom : I just saw the woman I'm going to marry, and I lost her.

  • Amos Calloway : She likes music.

    Young Ed Bloom : [smiles]  Music. She likes music.

  • Young Jenny : There's leaches in there.

    Young Ed Bloom : Did you see that woman?

    Young Jenny : What did she look like?

    Young Ed Bloom : Well, she was, uh...

    Young Jenny : Was she naked?

    Young Ed Bloom : Yeah, she was.

    Young Jenny : It's not a woman. It's a fish. No one ever catches her.

  • Young Ed Bloom : [voice over narration]  I was the biggest thing Ashton had ever seen. Until one day, a stranger arrived.

  • Young Ed Bloom : The biggest fish in the river gets that way by never getting caught.

  • Amos Calloway : Her favorite flower is daffodils

    Young Ed Bloom : Daffodils.

    [smiles] 

  • Young Ed Bloom : This isn't how I die.

  • Young Jenny : Promise me you'll come back

    Young Ed Bloom : I promise. Someday. When I'm really supposed to.

  • Young Ed Bloom : [voice over narration]  As soon as my bones had settled in their adult configuration, I set upon my plan to make a bigger place for myself in Ashton.

    Pretty Girl : Edward Bloom!

  • Young Ed Bloom : [voice over narration]  With my prospects few, I took a job as a traveling salesman. It suited me. If there's one thing you can say about Edward Bloom, it's that I'm a social person.

  • Karl : Friend, what happened to your shoes?

    Young Ed Bloom : [Looking down at his feet]  They kinda got ahead of me.

  • Young Ed Bloom : You don't know me, but my name's Edward Bloom... And I love you.

  • Young Ed Bloom : There are some fish that cannot be caught. It's not that they're faster or stronger than other fish. They're just touched by something extra.

  • Young Ed Bloom : I can't go back, I'm a human sacrifice.

  • [Ed and Norther are in line at a bank together] 

    Young Ed Bloom : And now what are you doing?

    Norther Winslow : I'm robbin' this place!

  • Ping : [in Cantonese, to Edward who was hiding in the dressing room]  Who are you?

    Young Ed Bloom : [In Cantonese]  Please, I'm not going to hurt you.

    Jing : [In Cantonese]  Damn right you're not! GUARD!

  • Mildred : [arriving in the town of Spectre]  You must have taken a shortcut.

    Young Ed Bloom : I did. It nearly killed me.

    Beamen : Mmm-hmm. Life'll do that to you. And truthfully, the long way is easier - but it's longer.

    Mildred : [big unnatural grin]  Much longer.

  • Jenny : I'll be here, and you'll come and go as you please, to one place or another. Do I have that right?

    Young Ed Bloom : Strange to hear it put that way, but, in so many words, yes.

    Jenny : Then I don't think so Mr. Bloom. If nothing is going to change, I'd just as soon it not change in the way it hasn't been changing all this time.
