We can spell "difficulty."
You couldn't spell "difficulty" if your life depended on it.
She taught us with a poem.
A poem, how sweet.
What poem would that be? - Mrs. D, Mrs. I.
Mrs. F-F-I.
Mrs. C, Mrs. U Mrs. L-T-Y
Why are all these women married?
Mrs. D? Mrs. I? You're supposed to be teaching spelling, not poetry!
I cannot, for the life of me, understand why small children
take so long to grow up.
I think they do it deliberately just to annoy me.
What's funny? Hm?
Come on, spit it out.
Speak up.
I like a joke as well as the next fat person.
Ah! It's a snake. It's a snake!
It's a snake! Uch!
One of you tried to poison me. Who?
Matilda.
I knew it!
I just thought you'd like to know, it's not a snake. It's a newt.
What did you say? - It's a newt, Ms.Trunchbull.
Stand up, you villainous sack of goat slime! You did this.
No, Miss Trunchbull.
Did you act alone, or did you have accomplices?
I didn't do it.
You didn't like the choky, did you?
Thought you'd pay me back, didn't you?
Well, I'll pay you back, young lady.
For what, Miss Trunchbull? - For this newt, you pissworm!
I'm telling you, I didn't do it!
Besides, even if you didn't do it, I'm gonna punish you
because I'm big and you're small, and I'm right and you're wrong.
And there's nothing you can do about it.
You're a liar and a scoundrel, and your father's a liar and a cheat.
You're the most corrupt lowlifes in the history of civilization.
Am I wrong'? I'm never wrong.
In this classroom, in this school, I am God!
