Which character in "The African Queen" said...

So you think you are a fan of "The African Queen." Let's see how well you know it. Match the following lines with the characters that spoke them. Can you get them all right?

  1. Ah, it's a great thing to have a lady aboard with clean habits. It sets the man a good example. A man alone, he gets to living like a hog. Then, too, with me, it's always: 'Put things off. Never do today what you can put off till tomorrow.' But with you: 'Business before pleasure.' Every time. Do all your personal laundry, make yourself spic and span, get all the mending out of the way and then - and only then - sit down for a nice quiet hour with the Good Book. I tell you, it's a model - like an inspiration. Why, I ain't had this old engine so clean in years, inside and out. Just look at her, Miss. She actually practically sparkles. Myself, too. Guess you ain't never had a look at me without my whiskers and all cleaned up. I bet you wouldn't hardly recognize me, works that much of a change. Freshens you up, too. If I only had some clean clothes, like you. Now you - why you could be at high tea. Say, that's an idea, Miss. How's about a nice little cup of tea? Now don't you stir, I'll be glad to make it for you.

  2. A good shepherd doesn't desert his flock when the wolves are prowling. We must ask the Almighty to bless the arms of England to carry her through her hour of triumph.

  3. If there's anything in the world I hate, it's leeches - filthy little devils!

  4. Ooooh! Coward yourself! You ain't no lady. No, Miss. That's what my poor old Mother would say to you, if my poor old Mother was to hear you. Whose boat is this, anyway? I asked you on board 'cause I was sorry for you on account of your losing your brother and all. What you get for feeling sorry for people! Well, I ain't sorry no more, you crazy, psalm-singing, skinny old maid!

  5. [about The African Queen] She ought to look her best, representing as she does the Royal Navy.

  6. By the power vested in me by Kaiser Wilhelm II, I pronounce you man and wife. Carry on with the execution.

  7. 'What an absurd idea!' Lady, you got ten absurd ideas for my one.

  8. [to the German captain] Would you hang us together, please?

  9. You're the bravest man that ever lived.

  10. What a time we've had, Rosie. What a time. We'll never lack for stories to tell our grandchildren, will we?

  11. [to Charlie] The court sentences you to death by hanging. Sentence to be carried out immediately.

  12. Are you cracked? The currents down there are fierce. I don't want a drowned woman on my hands. What will you be thinking of next?
