Prince Naveen Quotes in The Princess and the Frog (2009)

[spoiler]

[after Tiana and Naveen get married, they unexpectedly become human again]

Mama Odie: Like I told y'all, kissing a princess breaks the spell.

Prince Naveen: Once you became my wife, that made you...

Tiana: ...a princess. You just kissed yourself a princess.

Prince Naveen: And... I'm about to do it again.

[They kiss]

Tiana: [She and Naveen are floating above trees by balloons] Voodoo? You mean to tell me all this happened because you were messing with the Shadow Man?

Prince Naveen: He was very charismatic!

Tiana: [groans] It serves me right for wishing on stars. The ONLY way to get what you want in this world is through hard work.

Prince Naveen: Hard work? Why... why would a princess need to work hard?

Tiana: Huh? Oh, I'm not a princess. I'm a waitress.

Prince Naveen: A waitress? Well no wonder the kiss did not work! You lied to me!

Tiana: I - I never said I was a princess.

Prince Naveen: You never said you were a w- a waitress! You were wearing a crown!

Tiana: It was a costume party, you spoiled little rich boy!

Prince Naveen: Oh, oh yes, oh ye-? Well, the egg is on your face, alright, because I do not have any riches!

Tiana: [shocked] What?

Prince Naveen: I am completely broke! Hahaha!

[branches begin popping the balloons]

Prince Naveen: Uh-oh...

Charlotte: Goodness gracious! This is so much to absorb. Let me see if I got this right. If I kiss you before midnight, you and Tiana will turn human again, and then we gonna get ourselves married and live happily ever after! The end!

Prince Naveen: Yeah, more or less. But remember, you must give Tiana all the money she requires for her restaurant. Because Tiana...

[glances at Evangeline, the star]

Prince Naveen: She is my Evangeline.

Charlotte: Anything you want, sugar.

[applies lipstick]

Charlotte: Pucker up, buttercup!

Tiana: [Naveen half-heartedly puckers his lips] Wait!

Charlotte: Tiana?

Charlotte: Tiana?

Tiana: Don't do this.

Prince Naveen: I have to do this and we are running out of time!

Prince Naveen: I won't let you!

Prince Naveen: It's the only way to get you your dream!

Tiana: My dream? My dream wouldn't be complete... without you in it.

[shrugs with a smile]

Tiana: I love you, Naveen.

Prince Naveen: Warts and all?

Tiana: Warts and all.

Charlotte: [sniffs] All my life, I read about true love and fairytales, and... Tia, you found it! I'll kiss him! For you, honey! No marriage required.

[is about to kiss Naveen when the clock strikes midnight]

Charlotte: Oh my word! M-maybe that ol' clock's a little fast!

[kisses Naveen]

Charlotte: Oh!

[kisses him a few more times in panic and Naveen shrugs]

Charlotte: Oh, I'm so sorry!

Ray: [singing Ma Belle Evangeline] Je t'adore.

Prince Naveen: [to Tiana] I adore you.

Ray: Je t'aime.

Prince Naveen: I love you...

[Tiana gives him a weird look]

Prince Naveen: Just translating!

Louis: Louis would give anything to play jazz with the big boys.

Prince Naveen: So why don't you?

Louis: Oh, I tried once.

[Flashback: Louis climbs onto a river boat and starts playing along with a band; he is screamed and shot at as he jumps back out]

Louis: It didn't end well.

Tiana: Where are you taking me?

Prince Naveen: Oh, I just... wanted to show you a little something to celebrate our last night together as frogs.

[tugs her up and she sees his set-up of a table and wine bottle]

Tiana: Oh... All my years. No one's ever done anything like this for me.

[glances at Naveen and sees he is wearing a butterfly as a bowtie]

Prince Naveen: Oh, heh, i - it is too much, isn't it? Um...

[clears throat]

Prince Naveen: Thank you, Bow.

Bow: I thought it was a nice touch.

[flies away]

Bow: Pretend you did not see that.

[leads Tiana to the table]

Bow: Please, please sit down.

[sets a platter in front of her]

Tiana: What's this?

Prince Naveen: [lifts the lid and shows food] Ta-da!

Tiana: You minced!

Prince Naveen: I did!

[Tiana giggles]

Prince Naveen: You have had quite an influence on me. Which is amazing because I have dated thousands of women and -

[cuts himself off in panic]

Prince Naveen: No, like two, three... just other women! A-and anyway, you could not be more different! You know, you are - you are practically, heh, one of the guys!

[Tiana looks shocked]

Prince Naveen: No, no, no! You are not a guy! Let me begin again! Uh...

[leans on the table and he slips to the floor, the food spilling on him]

Prince Naveen: Ha... I am not myself tonight. Tiana!

[stands up]

Prince Naveen: Sorry, that was loud.

[Tiana laughs]

Prince Naveen: This is a disaster.

Tiana: [laughs] No, it's cute.

[Naveen chuckles]

Prince Naveen: You know, waitress, I finally figured out what is wrong with you.

Tiana: Have you, now?

Prince Naveen: You do not know how to have FUN. There. Somebody had to say it.

Tiana: Thank you, 'cause I figured out what your problem is too.

Prince Naveen: I am... too wonderful?

[the branch Tiana was holding smacks him backwards]

Tiana: No, you're a no-count, philandering, lazy bump on a log.

Prince Naveen: Ahaha...

[fakes a cough]

Prince Naveen: KILLJOY.

Tiana: What'd you say?

Prince Naveen: Ah, nothing.

[fakes another cough]

Prince Naveen: STICK IN THE MUD.

Tiana: Listen here, mister. This stick in the mud has had to work two jobs her whole life while you've been sucking on a silver spoon chasing chambermaids around your - your ivory tower!

Prince Naveen: [glances away] Actually, it's polished marble.

Prince Naveen: Excuse me, but your accent, it is funny.

Ray: I'm a Cajun, bro. Born and bred in the bayou! Y'all not from 'round here, are ya?

Prince Naveen: Actually, we are from a place far, far away from this world.

Ray: Go to bed! Y'all from Shreveport?

Tiana: [freaking out] Stella just talked to me. A dog just spoke to me!

Prince Naveen: You know, if you are going to let every little thing bother you, it is going to be a very long night!

Prince Naveen: [Tiana had just turned into a frog] Easy, Princess! Princess! Do not panic!

Tiana: [covering herself and panicking] Augh! What did you do to me? I - I'm green and I'm - and I'm slimy!

Prince Naveen: No, that is not slime!

[he takes her hand and rubs a finger over her arm]

Tiana: What?

Prince Naveen: [grinning] You are secreting mucus.

[Tiana twitches and tackles him]

Dr. Facilier: [appearing to read Prince Naveen's palm] Were I a betting man - and I'm not, I stay away from games of chance - I'd wager I'm in the company of visiting royalty.

Prince Naveen: [amazed] Lawrence, Lawrence! This remarkable gentleman has just read my palm!

Lawrence: [noticing the morning newspaper, which had a cover story about Naveen's visit, sticking out of Dr. Facilier's pocket] Or this morning's newspaper.

Tiana: You said you were fabulously wealthy!

Prince Naveen: No, no, no my parents are fabulously wealthy! But they cut me off for being a...

[notices a leech is attached to his arm]

Prince Naveen: LEECH! LEECH!

Tiana: [tugs off the leech] You're broke, and you had the gall to call me a liar?

[tosses the leech behind them and a large fish leaps out of the water to eat it and they freak and run]

Prince Naveen: It was not a lie! I fully inte...

[glances up to see a large bird about to eat them]

Prince Naveen: AAAH! I fully intend to be rich again! Once I marry Miss Charlotte La Bouff if she will have me!

Tiana: You a prince?

Prince Naveen: Obviously!

Tiana: She'll have you!

Prince Naveen: Lawrence! Glad to see you're finally getting into the music. Do you get my joke? Because your head is, it's in the tuba.

Prince Naveen: What we want, what we need... All the same thing, yes?

[Mama Odie whacks him with stick]

Prince Naveen: TIANA!... Sorry, that was loud...

Prince Naveen: [talking about her comment to the frog-hunters] 'And we talk, too!' I like that! You are secretly funny.

Tiana: Not a stick in the mud?

Prince Naveen: W-well I was...

Tiana: Say it.

Prince Naveen: Co...

Tiana: Say it.

Prince Naveen: All right... You're not exactly...

Tiana: I can't hear you, I'm sorry. What?

Prince Naveen: ...a complete stick DEEP in the mud.

[Tiana giggles]

Tiana: Once you two are married, you are gonna keep your promise and get me my restaurant, right?

Prince Naveen: Whoa, oh, not so fast. I made that promise to a beautiful princess, not some cranky wai - why are those logs moving?

Tiana: [Notices the alligators approaching] Those aren't logs!

Tiana: [while standing on the balcony, she sees a wishing star; sighs] I can't believe that I'm doing this.

[looks up]

Tiana: lease... Please... Please.

[looks down and sees a frog sitting on the balcony]

Tiana: Oh, very funny. So, what now? I reckon you want a kiss?

Prince Naveen: Kissing would be nice, yes?

[Tiana screams and backs into Charlotte's room]

Prince Naveen: 'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.

[sees Tiana about to launch stuffed animals at him]

Prince Naveen: Wait, wait, wait, hold on.

[Tiana starts throwing the stuffed animals at him]

Prince Naveen: You know, you have a very strong arm, Princess. Wait, please! Put the monkey down.

Tiana: [throws a stuffed monkey at him and lifts up a book] Stay back, or I'll... I'll...

Prince Naveen: Please, please.

[hops ontop of a table]

Prince Naveen: , allow me to introduce myself: I am Prince Naveen

[Tiana squashes him]

Prince Naveen: ... of Maldonia.

Tiana: A prince? But I didn't wish for any... Hold on, if you're the prince, then WHO was that waltzing with Lotte on the dance floor?

Prince Naveen: The only thing I know, is that one minute I am a prince, charming and handsome, cutting-a-rug, and the next thing I know

[trips over his feet]

Prince Naveen: ... I am tripping over these.

[points to his feet and Tiana lifts the book again]

Prince Naveen: Wait, wait.

[catches sight of the book's title]

Prince Naveen: Wait a moment, I know this story! The Froggie Printo!

Tiana: [hands the book to Naveen] The Frog Prince?

Prince Naveen: Yes, my mother had the servants read this to me every night.

[begins to flip back and forth between the last two pages of the book]

Prince Naveen: Yes, yes, this is exactly the answer! You must kiss me!

Tiana: Excuse me?

Prince Naveen: You will enjoy it, I guarantee. All women enjoy the kiss of Prince Naveen. Come, we pucker.

[his throat bulges out and then returns to normal]

Prince Naveen: That's new.

Tiana: Look, I'm sorry. I'd really like to help you, but I DO NOT kiss frogs.

Prince Naveen: But on the balcony, you ask me.

Tiana: I didn't expect you to answer!

Prince Naveen: Oh, but you must kiss me. Look, besides being unbelievably handsome, I come from a fabulously wealthy family. Surely, I can offer you some reward or a wish that I could grant, perhaps?

Tiana: [reluctantly] Just one kiss?

Prince Naveen: Just one. Unless you beg for more.

[licks lips; they lean in to kiss, but Tiana flips at the last second, Naveen sighs]

Tiana: All right, all right. Get it together, Tiana.

[she turns around quickly and kisses Naveen, who lets out a disappointed sigh, upon realizing that he is still a frog, then looks down and gasps in horror and epeaks Maldonian]

Prince Naveen: [gazes up at the table] Well, you don't look any different. But how did you get way up there? And how did I get way down here, in all this...

[gazes up at the table]

Prince Naveen: Well, you don't look any different. But how did you get way up there? And how did I get way down here, in all this...

[sees her hands are webbed. She looks in the mirror, sees she is a frog, and screams]

[Naveen and Tiana are cooking dinner]

Prince Naveen: [mincing vegetables] I'm not really used to doing this. I mean, most of the time I had servants do everything for me: dress my clothes, brush my teeth, even help me get out of bed!

Princess Tiana: [stirring broth] Aw, you poor baby.

Prince Naveen: Yes, they did everything for me, until the day my parents cut me off, and that's when I realized... I don't know how to do anything.

Lawrence: Sire! I've been looking for you everywhere!

Prince Naveen: What a coincidence, Lawrence. I've been *avoiding* you everywhere!

Dr. Facilier: [to Naveen, singing] Now you, young man, are from across the sea / come from two lines of royalty. I'm royal myself, on my mother's side... Your spirits are high, but your funds are low... / You need to marry a pretty honey whose daddy got some dough!... Mum and Dad cut you off, huh, pretty boy?

Prince Naveen: Sad, but true!

Dr. Facilier: Now you gotta get hitched. But hitching ties ya down. You just wanna be free, hop from place to place! But freedom takes GREEN...

[turns the cards into dollars]

Dr. Facilier: It's the green, it's the green, it's the green that you need / and in your future it's the green I see!

Prince Naveen: [practicing a marriage proposal with Evangeline] I'm not sure I want to be a prince anymore, cause then we would have to go our separate ways. I don't want that, I want to stay close to you, no matter what. Because... I love you.

[Ray sees, misunderstands and goes berserk on Naveen]

Prince Naveen: I am Naveen, Prince of Maldonia, and she is Tiana, the waitress.

[leans close to Louis]

Prince Naveen: Do not kiss her.

Ray: What's up?

Prince Naveen: I love her. Tiana is my Evangeline...

Prince Naveen: [as he is taken into the church] Lawrence, why are you doing this?

Lawrence: [viciously] It's payback for all those years of... humiliation.

Prince Naveen: Take your hands off me!
