Tzipporah Quotes in The Prince of Egypt (1998)

Tzipporah: Look. Look at your people, Moses. They are free.

Tzipporah: [Moses has fallen into Jethro's Well] What are you girls doing?

Sister: We're trying to get the funny man out of the well!

Tzipporah: Trying to get the funny man out of the well. Well, that's one I've never heard before.

[She looks down the well]

Tzipporah: Oh! Oh, my! Don't worry down there! We'll get you out! Hold on!

[She sees it is Moses]

Tzipporah: You!

[Tzipporah lets go of the rope, nods, and saunters away]

Sister: That's why Papa says she'll never get married.

Aaron: So, Moses, how does it feel when *you* get struck to the ground?

Moses: I... didn't mean to cause you more pain. I'm just trying to do what God told me.

Aaron: God? When did God start caring about any of us?

[shouts]

Aaron: In fact, Moses, when did *you* start caring about slaves? Was it when you found out that you were one of us?

Tzipporah: Don't listen to him.

Moses: No, he's right. I did not see because I did not *wish* to see.

Aaron: Oh, you didn't see because you didn't...

[shouts]

Aaron: wish to see! Ah! Well that makes everything fine then, doesn't it?

Tzipporah: I won't be given to anyone, especially an arrogant, pampered, palace *brat*!

Rameses: [laughs, to Moses] Are you going to let her talk to you like that?

Moses: [Scoffs] You will show the proper respect for a prince of Egypt.

Tzipporah: But I *am* showing you all the respect you deserve: None!

[Pulls rope free]

Moses: [to approaching guards] No, wait!

[Dives and grabs rope]

Moses: Be still!

Tzipporah: [Starts pulling rope] Untie this rope! I demand you set me free!

Moses: Be still!

Tzipporah: Let go!

Moses: [Notices pond behind Tzipporah, smiles] As you wish.

[Abruptly lets go]
