QUOTES FROM A CHRISTMAS STORY
My family’s favorite Christmas movie will always be A Christmas Story. It has so many iconic and hilarious parts. We always love watching it every year, and we love making references to it.
Here are a few highlights of some of the best quotes from A Christmas Story
I want an Official Red Ryder carbine-action two-hundred shot range model air rifle. –Ralphie
This is central to the entire movie. Its Ralphie’s one big gift that he wants this year, and he knows it, so well in fact he can say the entire name from memory all in one breath. And he certain comes up with a number of schemes to try and get his Christmas wish, but there is just one thing standing in his way:
You’ll shoot your eye out! –Mother, Miss Shields, and even Santa
The major roadblock to Ralphie’s big dream is this line he hears over and over and over again. The danger of having an air rifle, and a great quote whenever there is a kid who wants something probably just a bit too dangerous for them.
I can’t put my arms down. –Randy
This quote always brings back memories of Randy wrapped up in layers of clothing to try and keep warm. And its a wonderful quote to bring up whenever you have to get all bundled up to battle the harsh cold of winter. It’s also a great scene to show to any kids who dislike putting on all their winter gear.
