Professor Kirke Quotes in The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (2005)

Susan Pevensie: [about Lucy] She thinks she's found a magical land... In the upstairs wardrobe.

Professor Kirke: [eyes widening, he rushes to the children] What did you say?

Peter Pevensie: Um, the wardrobe. Upstairs. Lucy thinks she's found a forest inside.

Susan Pevensie: She won't stop going on about it.

Professor Kirke: What was it like?

Susan Pevensie: Like talking to a lunatic.

Professor Kirke: No, no, no. Not her, the forest!

Susan Pevensie: [stares] You're not saying you believe her?

Professor Kirke: You don't?

Susan Pevensie: But, of course not. I mean, logically it's impossible.

Professor Kirke: What do they teach in schools these days?

[last lines]

Professor Kirke: What were you all doing in the wardrobe?

Peter Pevensie: You wouldn't believe us if we told you, sir.

Professor Kirke: [tosses the cricket ball that had been hit through the window, to Peter]

Professor Kirke: Try me.

[later, alone with Lucy, who is trying to use the wardrobe to enter Narnia]

Professor Kirke: I don't think you'll get back in that way. You see... I've already tried.

Lucy Pevensie: Will we ever go back?

Professor Kirke: Oh, I expect so. But it'll probably happen when you're not looking for it. All the same... best to keep your eyes open.

[Aslan roars]

Professor Kirke: You seem to have upset the delicate internal balance of my housekeeper.

Peter Pevensie: We're very sorry, sir, it won't happen again.

Susan Pevensie: It's our sister, sir. Lucy.

Professor Kirke: The weeping girl?

Susan Pevensie: Yes, sir. She's upset.

Professor Kirke: Hence the weeping.
