I love the Mexican chapulines. These little crickets are beautifully roasted with salt and lime.

I have lived pain, and my life can tell: I only deepen the wound of the world when I neglect to give thanks the heavy perfume of wild roses in early July and the song of crickets on summer humid nights and the rivers that run and the stars that rise and the rain that falls and all the good things that a good God gives.

Even if you have nothing in your wallet, nothing can keep you from having a great summer. You can listen to crickets sing you to sleep, trace the Big Dipper, breathe in the stars, run through a sprinkler, host a cartwheel contest in the front yard.

Guys in our sport bump their gums quite a bit, and they get you to think they're these huge tough guys... they're these gangsters, that they'll fight anybody, anytime. And then when you get in front of a person like me... the crickets start to come out. They don't really wanna fight.

Flynn Rider: [Upon being chased by the Palace Guards, Flynn and the Stabbington Brothers reach a dead end. They are facing a cliff] All right, okay, give me a boost, and I'll pull you up.
Stabbington Brother: [the Stabbington Brothers look at each other] Give us the satchel first.
Flynn Rider: What? I just... I can't believe that

after all we've been through together, you don't... trust me?
[the Stabbington Brothers look at Flynn straight in the eye and crickets chirp in the background]
Flynn Rider: Ouch.
[Flynn hands the satchel to them]
Stabbington Brother: [Flynn climbs up the Stabbington Brothers and reaches the top of the cliff] Now help us up, pretty boy.


Flynn Rider: Sorry... my hands are full.
[Flynn cockily shows them the satchel he had stolen from them while climbing up and runs off]

Eli: [reading part of his newest novel at a press conference] The crickets and the rust-beetles scuttled among the nettles of the sage thicket. "Vámonos, amigos," he whispered, and threw the busted leather flintcraw over the loose weave of the saddlecock. And they rode on in the friscalating dusklight.

Dr. Cox: Carla you devil I can't help but notice you love telling jokes. What was it you were saying about your coffee?
Carla: I said 'It's so good it's like crack'.
[nurses stare]
Dr. Cox: Normally you would hear crickets but they were uncomfortable about just how unfunny that was.
Carla: So what I'm

Dr. Cox: I think your very funny when your up on your high horse, you know when you stay right in your wheelhouse. Everyone is funny for something. Barbie is an emotional trainwreck, your husband sells with a cocky attitude...

The Boy: [they just ate two crickets after narrowly escaping from the cannibal house where people are locked in the basement until ready to be eaten] We would never eat anybody, would we?
The Man: No, of course not.
The Boy: No matter how hungry we were?
The Man: Uh nuh.
The Boy: Even

if we were starving?
The Man: We're starving now.
The Boy: Because we're the good guys.
The Man: Yes.
The Boy: And we're carrying the fire.
The Man: [with a very proud smile] Yes.

Kuzco: [about Kronk] Oh, he's doing his own theme music?
[Kronk stops in his tracks, trying to blend in with the wall decorations while imitating the crickets as two people pass by. Of course they notice him, but disregard him anyway. When they leave, the camera pans out to reveal giant wall carvings were pointing straight at Kronk]
Kuzco:

[Narrating] Big, dumb, *and* tone deaf. I am *so glad* I was unconscious for all of this.
