Rosemary’s Baby became an instant favorite for me. The characters were so interesting and the conversations were very easy to listen to. Today, I wanted to share some of my favorite quotes from the movie. Due to their originality, execution, or their overall memorability, these are the quotes that stuck with me the most. I hope you enjoy and let me know your favorite Rosemary’s Baby quote!! (SPOILER ALERT!!!)

Roman Castavet (Sidney Blackmer): “No Pope ever visits a city where the newspapers are on strike.”
Minnie Castavet (Ruth Gordon): “I heard he’s going to postpone and wait till it’s over.”
Guy Woodhouse (John Cassavetes): “Well, that’s show biz.”
Roman: “That’s exactly what it is. All the costumes, the rituals. All religions.”
Guy: “Oh, I- I did a thing with my arms when Luther was having a fit. It was a kind of involuntary reach.”
Roman: “That’s it! That’s it. It had a wonderful authenticity to it.”
Roman: “He’s inclined to be suspicious of commercially prepared vitamin pills.”
Edward ‘Hutch’ Hutchins (Maurice Evans): “Is he indeed? But surely, they’re manufactured under every imaginable safeguard.”
Roman: “Oh, that’s quite true, but commercial pills can sit for months on a druggist’s shelf and lose a great deal of their original potency.”
Roman: “To 1966! The Year 1!”
Roman: “Uh, Rosemary-”
Rosemary Woodhouse (Mia Farrow): “Shut up. Shut up. You’re in Dubrovnik. I don’t hear you.”
Rosemary: “There were covens in Europe. That’s what they’re called- the, um, the-the congregation. Covens in Europe, in America, and in Australia, and they have one right here. That whole bunch. The parties with the singing and the flute and the chanting, those are esbats or sabbaths, or whatever they’re called.”
Guy: “Honey, don’t get excited.”
Rosemary: “Read what they do, Guy! They use blood in their rituals. And the blood that has the most power is baby’s blood. And they don’t just use the blood, they use the flesh, too.”
Guy: “Rosemary, for God’s sake!”
Jackie Kennedy (Patricia Ann Conway): “I’m sorry to hear you aren’t feeling well.”
Rosemary: “It’s only the mouse bite.”
Jackie: “You’d better have your legs tied down in case of convulsions.”
Rosemary: “Yes, I suppose so. There’s always a chance it was rabid.”
Jackie: “If the music bothers you, let me know and I’ll have it stopped.”
Rosemary: “Oh, no, no, no. Please don’t change the program on my account.”

Minnie: “Well, there’s a chance you’ll have lots of children, too.”
Rosemary: “Oh, we’re fertile, all right. I’ve got 16 nieces and nephews.”
Minnie: “My goodness!”
Mr. Nicklas (Elisha Cook Jr.): “She was very old and passed away without ever waking. I’d be grateful to go that way myself when the time comes.”
Rosemary: “Tannis, anyone?”
Guy: “Well, if you took it, you ought to wear it.”
Roman: “Now, I’m not going to wish you good luck because you won’t need it. You’re going to have a happy, happy life.”
Rosemary: “Have a good trip and come back safely.”
Roman: “Perhaps. But I may stay on in Dubrovnik or Pescara or maybe Majorca. We shall see, we shall see.”
Rosemary: “Come back.”
Dr. Sapirstein (Ralph Bellamy): “Any questions you have, call me night or day. Call ME, not your Aunt Fanny. That’s what I’m here for.”
Guy: “Is that what those b*****s were giving you in there? And is that their hint for today?”
Rosemary: “They’re my friends. Don’t call them b*****s.”
Guy: “They’re a bunch of not very bright b*****s who ought to mind their own g*****n business!”
Rosemary: “Pain, begone. I will have no more of thee.”

Rosemary: “I wanted to know how you are, if there’s been any improvement.”
Donald Baumgart (Tony Curtis): “Well, bless your heart. Guy Woodhouse’s wife, huh? Well, I’m splendid. I only broke six glasses today.”
Rosemary: “All of them. All of them. All in it together. All of them. All of them witches. Don’t you worry, little Andy or Jenny, I’ll kill them before I let them touch you.”
Rosemary: “It’s a fascinating part. He’ll really be noticed this time. He also has an offer for a lead in a television series, Miami Beach. He- He’s suddenly very hot.”
Hutch: “Mm-hmm. Now I understand why you’re so overjoyed.”
Rosemary: “Only three dinner plates that matched. And all that beautiful, beautiful silver.”
Guy: “We’ll be nice. Maybe they’ll will it to us.”
Minnie: “Well, I mean it’s impossible to be 100% sure! If you want MY opinion, we shouldn’t tell her at all! That’s MY opinion!”
Roman: “Generally, I pour these out precisely as a bartender, don’t I, Minnie?”
Minnie: “Just watch the carpet.”
Roman: “Why don’t you help us out, Rosemary? Be a real mother to Adrian. You don’t have to join if you don’t want to. Just be a mother to your baby. Minnie and Laura-Louise are too old. It’s not right. Think about it, Rosemary.”

Guy: “She’s awake. She sees.”
Minnie: “She don’t see. As long as she ate the mouse, She can’t see nor hear. She’s like dead. Now sing.”
Hutch: “I see you had another suicide up there at Happy House.”
Rosemary: “Oh, didn’t I tell you?”
Hutch: “No, you didn’t.”
Rosemary: “It was that girl I told you about, the drug-addict who was rehabilitated by this old couple, the Castavets. I’m sure I told you that.”
Hutch: “They didn’t rehabilitate her very successfully, it seems.”
Rosemary’s Friend: “You look like a piece of chalk. You make him feed you, luv.”
Minnie: “Sometimes I wonder how come you’re the leader of anything. Please don’t tell me what Laura-Louise said because I’m not interested. If you’d listened to me, we wouldn’t have had to do this! We’d have been all set to go now instead of having to start all over from scratch! I told you not to tell her in advance! I told you she wouldn’t be open-minded!”
Rosemary’s Girl Friend (Marianne Gordon): “You dirty, stinking, secret-keeper! Congratulations!”
Roman: “His power is stronger than stronger! His might shall last longer than longer!”
Rosemary: “I’m sorry. I thought you were Victoria Vetri, the actress. I’m sorry.”
Terry Gionoffrio (Victoria Vetri): “It’s alright. A lot of people think I’m Victoria. I don’t see any resemblance.”

Rosemary: “That must be the partition.”
Guy: “That’s the back part of the original 10 with a dining room, and there’s- there’s a closet over here, and then there’s a closet over here.”
Rosemary: “Oh, oh, really? Did- did he really say that? Oh, he didn’t- didn’t say that. What el- what else was it that he- that he said? Oh, that- that’s wonderful. That’s wonder- that’s mar- marvelous.”
Terry: “Say, listen, why don’t we come down here together regular and do our laundry?”
Rosemary: “Okay, that’d be great.”
Terry: “I have a good luck charm. It might work for both of us.”
Rosemary: “Hutch, I might as well tell you. I’m pregnant.”
Hutch: “Oh, rubbish. Pregnant women gain weight, they don’t lose it.”
Minnie: “Girls today take things much more in their stride. They’re much healthier than we were, thanks to vitamins, better medical care. What are those things over there, seat covers?”
Rosemary: “Do you travel for business?”
Roman: “Well, business and pleasure both. I’m 79 and I’ve been going one place or another since I was 10. You name a place, I’ve been there.”
Rosemary: “I just noticed he has pierced ears.”
Hutch: “Pierced ears and piercing eyes.”
Minnie: “No matter where we are, our thoughts are gonna be with you every minute, darling, till you’re all happy and thin again, your sweet little boy or girl laying safely in your arms.”
Rosemary: “Guess what they have in their bathroom.”
Guy: “A bidet.”
Rosemary: “Jokes For The John.”
Guy: “No.”
Rosemary: “A book on a hook, right next to the toilet.”
Rosemary: “I like the idea of having everything fresh and natural. I’ll bet expectant mothers chewed bits of tannis root when nobody’d even heard of vitamin pills.”
Hutch: “I was tempted to write the management that you were drug addicts and litterbugs. Instead, I decided to lie and tell them you were wonderful tenants.”
Rosemary: “Aw, you’re great, Hutch.”
Guy: “I have to be at Alan’s at 10:00.”
Rosemary: “Eat out.”
Guy: “Like hell I will.”
Hutch: “Adrian Marcato practiced witchcraft. He made quite a splash in the nineties by announcing that he’d conjured up the living devil. Apparently, people believed him, so they attacked and nearly killed him in the lobby of the Bramford.”
Hutch: “Well, we must assume Dr. Sapirstein knows whereof he speaks. He should. He charges enough.”

Minnie: “Here, drink this, you’ll feel a little better.”
Rosemary: “What’s in it? Tannis root?”
Minnie: “Nothing’s in it. Just plain, ordinary Lipton’s tea. You drink it.”
Grace Cardiff (Hanna Landy): “Oh, and I’m to tell you the name is an anagram.”
Rosemary: “The name of the book?”
Grace: “Apparently. He was delirious so it’s hard to be sure.”
Roman: “God is dead! Satan lives! The year is one! The year is one and God is done!”
Dr. Sapirstein’s Receptionist (Marilyn Harvey): “Well, it’s a big improvement on your regular, if you don’t mind my saying.”
Rosemary: “That wasn’t a perfume. That was a good luck charm. I threw it away.”
Receptionist: “Good. Maybe the doctor will follow your example.”
Rosemary: “I look awful.”
Guy: “What are you talking about? You look great. It’s that haircut that looks awful.”
Guy: “Who says there’s nothing to ESP? Madame and monsieur shall have ze dessert after all! Mousse au chocolat. Or as Minnie calls it: chocolate mouse.”
Guy: “He’s Steven Marcato, all right. Poor old geezer. With a crazy father like that, no wonder he switched his name around.”
Rosemary: “You- you don’t think he’s the same?”
Guy: “What do you mean, a witch?”
