Charlie Conway Quotes in D3: The Mighty Ducks (1996)

Gordon Bombay: [to the board] You know why I'm so good? Because I had a good education, you gave it to me. And you're going to give it to these kids.

Coach Orion: [to Charlie] He *is* good.

Charlie Conway: Just getting started.

Gordon Bombay: I was like you, Charlie. When I played hockey, I was a total hot shot... tried to take control of every game. I wound up quitting. So I tried the law. Same thing. I ruled the courtroom, but inside I was a mess. Started drinking. Man, I was going down. But then this great thing happened, maybe the best thing ever: I got arrested and sentenced to community service. And there you were: Charlie and the Ducks. And as hard as I fought it, there you were. You gave me a life, Charlie, and I want to say thank you. I told Orien about all this when I talked to him about taking over. I told him that you were the heart of the team and that you would learn something from each other. I told him that you were the real Minnesota Miracle Man.

Charlie Conway: [astonished] You did?

Gordon Bombay: [nods] So be that man, Charlie. Be that man.

Charlie Conway: [Gordon has set Charlie's alarm for 6AM] Go away.

Gordon Bombay: Can't do that. Come on.

[flips Charlie and his mattress over]

Gordon Bombay: Get dressed, Charlie.

Coach Orion: You're playing hard. I'm proud of you guys.

Luis Mendoza: They're cheap-shotting us to death.

Coach Orion: I know they are. I know they are.

Lester Averman: It's going to take a miracle for us to hold on.

Dean Portman: [enters the lockeroom reading his scholarship] Dean Portman is awarded a full athletic and academic scholarship to the Eden Hall Academy. I had this lying around the house in Chicago, my attorney thought I should sign, I agreed. It's official boys. I'm back!

Charlie Conway: [aside to Orien] Bombay.

Charlie Conway: [after Cole steals Charlie's lunch] Aww. C'mon, my mommy made me brownies

Fulton: Yeah, fresh warm ones.

Rick: It's too bad about your bash brother, I heard he was too scared to leave home.

Fulton: Portman ain't scared of nothin'.

Cole: Eww, what the hell kind of brownies are these?

Charlie Conway: I gotta tell her to stop using horse turds in the recipe.

Coach Orion: Hey Charlie. We've really backed into a corner here. We hold them for 2 minutes, we've got ourselves a tie.

Charlie Conway: We're up to it.

Coach Orion: I know you are. But you deserve to win. Not carless, but not to careful either. You see your shot take it.

[Puts a "C" on Charlie's jersey]

Coach Orion: Go get them Captain.

Charlie Conway: Goldberg! Gold! I knew you could do it!

Goldberg: Don't ever do that to me again!

Charlie Conway: Goldberg you scored. We win!

Coach Orion: [in reference to Bombay] He IS good.

Charlie Conway: Just getting started.

[the kids aren't thrilled about being named the Ducks]

Gordon Bombay: I didn't have a choice, we're being sponsored.

Les Averman: By who, Donald and Daisy?

Gordon Bombay: Hey, you don't wanna be Ducks? You'd rather be District Five? Some stupid number?

Peter Mark: Better than some stupid animal.

Gordon Bombay: I'll have you know, Peter, that the Duck is one of the most noble, agile and intelligent creatures in the animal kingdom.

Connie Moreau: But they're wimpy!

Guy Germaine: They don't even have teeth.

Gordon Bombay: Neither do hockey players. Have you guys ever seen a flock of ducks flying in perfect formation? It's beautiful. Pretty awesome the way they all stick together. Ducks never say die. Ever seen a duck fight? No way. Why? Because the other animals are afraid. They know that if they mess with one duck, they gotta deal with the whole flock. I'm proud to be a Duck, and I'd be proud to fly with any one of you. So how about it? Who's a Duck?

Fulton Reed: [pause] I'll be a duck.

Charlie Conway: Yeah, me too.

Gordon Bombay: You may make it. You may not. But that doesn't matter, Charlie. What matters is that we're here. Look around. Who ever thought we'd make it this far. 1 2 3 Triple Deke. Take your best shot. I believe in you, Charlie. Win or lose.

Charlie Conway: Thanks coach!

Gordon Bombay: Go get em.

Goldberg: Be careful man, it almost hit me that time!

Charlie Conway: Goldberg, you're the goalie. It's supposed to hit you.

Goldberg: Does that sound stupid to anyone else?

Charlie Conway: You know, she has many fine qualities that men find attractive.

Gordon Bombay: I'm aware Charlie, that fact has not escaped me.

Gordon Bombay: [talking about Casey's date life] So what kind of guys does she date?

Charlie Conway: Jerks. Not because of her, but when they take a glimpse of me, POW! WARP SPEED! They are gone!

Gordon Bombay: Don't take it personally, Charlie.

Charlie Conway: Oh, I don't care, except it's not fair to my mom.

Charlie Conway: Oh, man. It's my mom. She looks pissed.

[Bombay shoves him down]
