- [after smashing an alarm clock] Snoooooooooooze!
- Look, Ma, I'm roadkill! Ha ha ha!

- Hold onto your lugnuts - it's tiiiiime for an overhaul!!!
- Hold on, sugar! Daddy's got a sweet tooth tonight!
- Sssomebody stop me!
- Uh-oh...can't make the scene if you don't have the green; I better make a little stop.
- How do?
- Let's rock this joint!
- Our love is like a red, red rose... and I am a little thorny.
- Ya got me, partner!
- [after being shot] Hold me closer, Ed, it's getting dark... [coughs] Tell Auntie Em to let Old Yeller out... [coughs]...tell Tiny Tim I won't be coming home this Christmas... [coughs]...tell Scarlett I do give a damn!! (coughs on thug, a fart is heard) Pardon me... [he dies, an audience appears and applauds while The Mask is handed Oscar acting award] Thank you! You love me! You really love me!
- [in Clint Eastwood voice] You gotta ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" WELL, DO YA... PUNKS?!
- [after swallowing a bomb, then belching out the explosion; Italian accent] THAT'S A SPICY MEATBALL!!!
- This guy's incorrigible.
- [after defeating Dorian, with an Eddie G. Robinson voice] You were good, kid, real good. But as long as I'm around, you'll always be second best, see?
Dorian Tyrell
- Son of a bitch!
- [about The Mask] That guy dancin' with Tina? He's dead meat. Come on.
- Ice this deadbeat!
- 50 grand. 50 grand to the man who finds that green-faced son of a bitch before the cops do. I want you to get the word out to every street hustler, to every lowlife in this town. I want him in here tomorrow, alive. You still here? Come on, let's go!
- I'm just an ex-employee, who's come for his back pay. Or should I say, payback!
- Ladies and gentlemen, I'll be your host for the remainder of the evening.
Dialogues
- Driver: Hey, get out of the road!
- The Mask: I think he wants to communicate! [The Mask holds up a horn and blows it at the driver, which shatters the car's windows with its volume.]
- Dorian Tyrell: Son of a bitch! [throws the cigarette lighter over the glass window; to Eddie] Eddie, who did this, man?!
- Eddie: [pointing to The Mask] Him. That's--that's the guy.
- Dorian Tyrell: That guy dancin' with Tina? He's dead meat. Come on!
- Dorian Tyrell: Okay, Twinkle-Toes, I want to know where my money is and I want to know right now!
- The Mask: Okay. [reveals a cashier] You've got 17.5% in T-bills amortized over the fiscal year. 8% in stocks and bonds. Carry the nine, divide by the gross national product. Fortunately, funeral bouquets are deductible!
- Dorian Tyrell: [to Orlando] Ice this deadbeat!
- Kellaway: Margaret! You son of a bitch!
- The Mask: Jeez, I figured you had a sense of humour. After all... YOU MARRIED HER!

- The Mask: That's gotta hurt! [makes weird sound then whizzes off.]
- Doyle: Aw, come on, Lieutenant. It's not all your fault. Something would turn up.
- Kellaway: Sure, Stanley Ipkiss is gonna fall right into my lap. [falls when Stanley falls on him, then tears the tape off Stanley's mouth]

- Stanley Ipkiss: Um...
- Kellaway: Get him up!
- Kellaway: Freeze! [The Mask literally freezes] Put your hands up!
- The Mask: [with teeth clenched] But you told me to freeze!
- Kellaway: All right, all right, un-freeze. [The Mask defrosts and falls to the ground] You're under arrest.
- The Mask: [Desperate voice] No! It wasn't me! It was the one-armed man! [gets up, in normal voice] All right, I confess! I did it, ya hear? And I'm glad, glad I tell ya! [begs on the ground] What are they gonna do to me, Sarge? What are they gonna do?!
- Kellaway: [slaps handcuffs on The Mask] Sorry, son, that's not my department. Search him! [The Mask is pulled up and his [endless] pockets are searched]
