This was a tough decision and I had to leave a lot of great ones out but these are my all time favorite lines from the original Home Alone. If I miss any out I’m sorry.
10. Kevin McCallister: Guys, I’m eating junk and watching rubbish! You better come out and stop me!
9. Kevin Is this toothbrush approved by the American Dental Association?
8. Harry: Why the hell did you take your shoes off?
Marv: Why the hell are you dressed like a chicken?
7. Kevin: Can I sleep in your room? I don’t want to sleep on the hide-a bed with Fuller. If he has something to drink, he’ll wet the bed.
Buzz: I wouldn’t let you sleep in my room if you were growing on my ass.
6. Linnie McCallister: No, Kevin, you’re what the French call les incompetents.
5. Kevin McCallister: You guys give up yet? Or are you thirsty for more?
4. Rod McCallister: [watching Old Man Marley] What’s he doing now?
Buzz McCallister: He walks up and down the streets every night, salting the sidewalks.
Rod McCallister: Maybe he’s just trying to be nice.
Buzz McCallister: No way. See that garbage can full of salt? That’s where he keeps his victims. The salt turns the bodies… into mummies.
Rod McCallister: Whoa.
Kevin McCallister: Mummies?
[Marley looks up at the boys]
Rod McCallister: Look out!
[they close the drapes and run]
3. Kevin: Can I sleep in your room? I don’t want to sleep on the hide-a bed with Fuller. If he has something to drink, he’ll wet the bed.
Buzz: I wouldn’t let you sleep in my room if you were growing on my ass.
2. Kevin McCallister: I made my family disappear.
1. Gangster ‘Johnny’: [hears knock at door] Who is it?
Gangster ‘Snakes’: [Snakes comes in] It’s me, Snakes. I got the stuff.
Gangster ‘Johnny’: Leave it on the doorstep and get the hell outta here.
Gangster ‘Snakes’: All right, Johnny, but what about my money?
Gangster ‘Johnny’: What money?

Gangster ‘Johnny’: That a fact? How much do I owe ya?
Gangster ‘Snakes’: Acey said 10%.
Gangster ‘Johnny’: [smirks] Too bad Acey ain’t in charge no more.
Gangster ‘Snakes’: What do you mean?
Gangster ‘Johnny’: He’s upstairs taking a bath. He’ll call you when he gets out.
[pause]
Gangster ‘Johnny’: Hey, I tell ya what I’m gonna give *you*, Snakes.

Gangster ‘Johnny’: I’m gonna give you to the count of 10, to get your ugly, yellow, no-good keister off my property,
[shouts]
Gangster ‘Johnny’: before I pump your guts full of lead!
Gangster ‘Snakes’: [wide eyed and calm] All right, Johnny, I’m sorry. I’m goin’!
Gangster ‘Johnny’: 1… 2… 10!
[starts unloading bullets into Snakes while laughing maniacally]
Gangster ‘Johnny’: Keep the change ya filthy animal!
