Quotes 

• Roger De Bris : What have you done, L.S.D.?

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : About six months... but I'm on probation, so it's all good, baby!

  Roger De Bris : No, I mean, what do you do best?

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : I can't do that here. That's why they put me away, baby!

• Lorenzo St. DuBois : [singing]  And I give a flower to the big fat cop / He takes his club and he beats me up / I give a flower to the garbage man / He stuffs my girl in the garbage can / And I give it to the landlord when the rent comes 'round / He throws it in the toilet and he flush it down / It goes into the sewer / With the yuck runnin' through 'er / And it runs into the river that we drink / Hey, world, YOU STINK! Ugh! Man it's later than you think! Girl you got just one more chance/ Come on baby while I dance!

  [dances] 

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : [speaking]  You don't think 'bout no little flowers! Oh no, all you think about is guns. If everybody in the world today had a flower instead of a gun, there would be no wars. There would be one big smell-in. Just the flowers...!

  [rips his flowers in half] 

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : Hey, man, my flower... My flower. What'd you do to my flower, man? You hurt it, like everything else... Everything else... flowers.

  [he sits down onstage and starts eating a banana, then sucks his thumb] 

  Max Bialystock : THAT'S OUR HITLER!

• [singing as Hitler in the play] 

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : One and one's two/ Two and two's four/ I feel so bad 'cause I'm losin' the war!

• Lorenzo St. DuBois : [after Goebbels throws a reefer into a vase, and a large explosion occurs]  They try; man, how they try!

• [performing in the play] 

  Doc Goebbels : [on stage]  Danke schön, mein Führer.

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : [as Hitler]  Hey, you're a German.

  Doc Goebbels : We're all Germans.

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : That's right.

  [gasps] 

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : That means we *cannot* attack Germany.

• Lorenzo St. DuBois : Lorenzo, baby. Lorenzo St. DuBois. But my friends call me L.S.D.

• Lorenzo St. DuBois : I would like to sing this song, it's about love, and hate. Psychedelically speaking I am talking about the power.

• Lorenzo St. DuBois : Love Power! Talkin' 'bout Love Power! The Power of a Sweet Flower... is gonna rule the Earth!

  [prances] 

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : And there'll be a Great Rebirth! Love is the Power that is mine...

• Eva Braun : [on stage]  If you lieb me so much, why don't you pay attention to me, you big dictator?

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : [on stage as Hitler]  Oh, you chicks! Oh, you chicks! You're all alike! All you think about is lieben, lieben, lieben, lieben!

• Eva Braun : [on stage]  Er liebt mich, er liebt mich nicht. Er liebt mich, er liebt mich nicht. Er liebt mich nicht!

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : [on stage as Hitler]  Hey, man. I lieb you. I lieb you, baby. I lieb you! Now lieb me alone.

• Lorenzo St. DuBois : [on stage as Hitler]  We got to do something. I got it! I've got it! I've got it! I've got it!

  Doc Goebbels : What?

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : I've got it!

  Doc Goebbels : What have you got?

  Lorenzo St. DuBois : A medal. It fell down my pants, man. Get it out, baby. Dankeschön, baby.

• Lorenzo St. DuBois : [on stage as Hitler]  Cool it, while I map out my campaign.

I'm gonna take over Poland, And then I'm gonna crush France, Oh baby, whatcha know, Mama, And I'm gonna cross that English Channel, Wow! And then I'm gonna kick them cats in the pants, Pow! Pow! Pow!
