I saw Wicked for the first time last night. I loved it. It was amazing. I can't remember a lot of the funny quotes from it, though. Does anyone have any.
And..
DOes anyone have the script?

Glinda: It's dreadful, it is to have a house fall on you.. but accidents will happen..
Elphaba: You call this an accident?!
Glinda: Well maybe not an accident..
Elphaba: Well what do you call it?!
Glinda: A regime change.. caused by a bizarre and unexpected twister of fate..
Galinda: Oh! It seems the artichoke is steamed
Fiyero: I've been thinking
Elphaba: Yes, I've heard (this one is funnier at the actual show)
Galinda: I will turn your frock into a beautiful ball gown! Stand up.. Ball gown!! Ball gown!! Is this thing on?
Elphaba: Do you want me to try?
Galinda: No, I've got it! Oh, just wear the frock.. it's pretty!

Glinda: I don't know why you can't just teach us history instead of dwelling on the past!

I thought of another one.
Glinda: I hope she doesn't get lost...I'm so bad with directions.
Elphaba: (in response to the sound of Dorothy crying): Oh, for Oz's sake, stop crying! I can't listen to it anymore! You want to see your Aunt Em and your Uncle whats'his name again? Get those shoes off your feet, Little brat! Who takes a dead woman's shoes, must have been raised in a barn!
Morrible: i'm sure she (Elphaba) is very bright...
Galinda: Bright???!!!??? She's phosporescent!!!
...It's harping on the past, not dwelling....
:)
Nessa: What's in the punch?
BOQ: Lemons and melons and pears...
Nessa: Oh, my!
--
Nessa: Elphaba, why have you come?
Elphaba: Well, there's no place like home...
--
Nessa: ...Elphaba, shut up! First of all, I can't harbor a fugitive - I'm an unelected fugitive!
I love this one:
What is it? What-do I have something in my teeth? Okay, lets just get this over with: No I'm not seasick, Yes I've always been green, and no I didn't chew grass as a child.

Sorry, my bad....I thought perhaps it was "harping," but I've only seen the show once!
Glinda: "Let the little girl go, and her little dog, Dodo"
Glinda: "Come on, they're just shoes. Let it go!"

Elphaba: I'm beautifully tragic
Glinda: It's good to see me isn't it? No need to answer, that was rhetorical, (or something like that)
When Glinda talks about Elphaba's dirty broom,
Elphaba: Well we can't all travel by bubble
And its not a line, but when Fiyero swings in on the rope it always makes me laugh, even though I don't think its supposed to be funny

Glinda: You're not still carrying that old thing around?? (Elphaba's broom)
Elphaba: Well, we can't all come and go by bubble!
Glinda: I am a public figure! People expect me to...
Elphaba: Lie??
Glinda: ...BE ENCOURAGING!!!!
My favorite line ie the Bubble one. Elphie gets all hard-core.
Also - toss, toss
But yes the fiyero swinging in is the funniest part of the show for me. I've laughed the both times that I've seen the show. But this last time, my seat had the view of Joey Mac jumping on the rope before he was on stage, it was classic.

Oh I am so jealous SWTaffy, the last time I saw it, Joey was all of 4 or 5 inches off the ground which made it even funnier. My sister pinched me becuase she was embarassed that I was laughing so hard.
Galinda - "Magic wands need they have a point"
Fiyero: You must think I'm really stupid.
Elphaba: No, not really stupid.
Elphaba: Well we can't all come and go by bubble.
Galinda: Fiyero and I are going to be married! (high pitched squeal)
Elphaba:He's asked you already?!
GAlinda: No, he doesn't know yet.
Elphaba: I don't cause commotions, I AM one.
Most of mine have already been said. There are more, I have them written down somewhere....

AHHH! I love the Fiyero swinging in...Norbert was classic..."Llllllllllet the green girl go!"
I loved it!
Elphaba: No matter how shallow and self absorbed you *pretend* to be--
Fiyero: Excuse me, there's no pretense here. I happen to be genuinely self-absorbed and *deeply* shallow!
Yes, Norbert's swing was wonderful...Joey fell when I saw it a couple weeks ago. It was cute.
"Oh come on, they're just shoes. Let it go!" - Glinda
"It's terrible it is, to have a house fall on you - but accidents will happen!" - Glinda
"Yeah, well there's no place like home" - Elphaba
And, since all of those have been taken, I'm just going with a good line from the show -
"Elphaba, we're going to be together always. You can see houses flying through the sky, can't you see that?" - Fiyero
I adore, "let the green girl go" -- it makes me wayy more excited than it should.
