Movie quotes

  • (..) Wait. Just a second. Out of the way. What should I do with this? - Should I leave it here? - Finish what you started, human. Hey, you runts. You wanna turn back into soot? And you, back off. You can't just take someone else's job. If they don't work, the spell wears off. They turn back into soot. (..)

  • (..) Haku told me to come here and ask you for work. Could you give me a job, please? Four bath tokens at once. Come on. Get to work, you little runts. Yeah, I'm Kamajii, slave to the boiler that heats the baths. Move it, ya stupid soot balls. Please, I've gotta get a job here. I don't need any help. (..)
