• This little exchange makes this troper crack up every time:

Ratcliffe: We shall give them a proper English greeting. Wiggins: OOH! Gift baskets!

• • "And he came so highly recommended."
    • An alternate scene has Wiggins saying, "Ooh! I do so love a fracas!" He mimics shooting a gun with a soup ladle, until he trips and an axe barely misses him, before Ratcliffe says the above line.
• John Smith's first meeting with Grandmother Willow.

John: Pocahontas, that tree is talking to me. Pocahontas: Then you should talk back. Say something. John: What do you say to a tree?

• Most of Wiggins and Ratcliffe's dialogues, but this one in particular:

Ratcliffe: Wiggins, why do you think those insolent heathens attacked us? Wiggins: Because we invaded their land and cut down their trees and dug up their earth?

• The scene at the very beginning of the movie, when Nakoma goes to fetch Pocahontas:

Nakoma: Pocahontas, your father's back! Come down here! (Pocahontas jumps down the cliff) No.. not that.. way. (Pocahontas dives into the water and topples Nakoma's canoe) Nakoma: Don't you think we're a -splut- little old for this?

• Meeko when he jumps down the cliff after Pocahontas. He goes from confident to REALLY scared in a second and it's hilarious.
• Meeko's expressions while Pocahontas is singing Just Around the Riverbend, especially when she goes down the waterfall.
• Meeko and Flit's reaction to Pocahontas suddenly managing to learn English.
• Grandmother Willow's scene with John Smith.

Grandmother Willow: (on John Smith) He has a good soul. And he's handsome, too. John: I like her.

• This dialogue.

Lon: Come on, Ben, it's just a little fun. Ben: Oh, sure, we're having loads of fun. Right, look at us-no gold, no food, while Ratcliffe sits up in his tent all day happy as a clown. (Cut to Ratcliffe) Ratcliffe: I'm doomed!

• And this dialogue between Ratcliffe, Ben, and Lon.

Ratcliffe: You there, where's Captain Smith? Lon: Well, he's...gone. Ben: Aye, your singing must've scared him off. Ratcliffe: Well, then go get him, for heaven's sake! Lon: What if we run into the Indians? Ratcliffe: That's what guns are for. Now, arm yourselves and get moving!
