Line 4:
*** "It's held in place with a large rock!"
* After Lionel calls Albert's past physicians idiots:
{{quote| '''Albert''': They've all been knighted.<br />
'''Lionel''': Makes it official then. }}
* Or alternately: "Honey, I don't believe you've met... King George VI?"
Line 16:
*** From the same scene: "Defecation flows trippingly from the tongue."
* Or this:
{{quote| '''Lionel:''' Surely a Prince's brain knows what his mouth is doing.<br />
'''Bertie:''' You're not acquainted with any royal princes, are you. }}
* At the very end of the movie:
{{quote| '''Lionel:''' You still stammered a little on the 'W's<br />
'''Bertie:''' I threw a couple in there, so they'd know it was me. }}
* Lionel asking Bertie to swear more crudely.
{{quote| '''Lionel:''' Do you know the F-word?"<br />
'''Bertie:''' Ffffffornication?<br />
'''Lionel:''' Oh come on, Bertie! }}
* Both scenes in the elevator.
* Bertie doing his exercises... with his wife sitting on top of him.
{{quote| '''Lionel:''' And up goes Her Royal Highness... And down goes Her Royal Highness...}}
** Elizabeth's reaction to the whole situation is chuckle-worthy too - she is entirely unruffled.
* When Lionel tells Bertie to try singing, since he doesn't stutter when he sings to Camptown Races' tune:
{{quote| '''Bertie:''' ''You're bark-ing up the wrong tree now, Doc-tor, Doc-tor!''}}
* Logue and Bertie's first meeting:
{{quote| '''Lionel:''' When speaking with a prince, one waits for the prince to choose the topic.<br />
'''Bertie:''' Waiting for me to … commence a conversation, one can wait a rather long wait. }}
* If Logue is talking and it's not heartwarming, it's usually one of these.
* The whole bedtime story, especially:
{{quote| '''Albert:''' And do you know what he turned into?<br />
'''Daughters:''' A handsome prince!<br />
'''Albert:''' A short-tailed albatross. }}
* The scene with Logue and his two youngest sons, where he's reciting Shakespeare. It reminds this troper so much of herself, her sister, and her father on a normal evening at home... minus the Shakespeare.
* The final rehearsal, in which Bertie brings out almost every technique he's learned to get his speech across.
