Quotes From Coming To America:
King Jaffe Joffer: So you see, my son, there is a very
fine line between love and nausea.
Prince Akeem: But when I marry, I want the woman to love
me for who I am, not because of what I am.
King Jaffe Joffer: And who are you?
Prince Akeem: I am a man who has never tied his own shoes.
King Jaffe Joffer: Wrong. You are a PRINCE who has never
tied his own shoes. I tied my own shoes once. It is an overrated
experience.
Prince Akeem: But how can a man get excited about a woman
he's never seen?
Prince Akeem: Is it just me, or does every woman in Queens
have some kind of an emotional problem?
Cleo McDowell: Look... me and the McDonald's people got
this little misunderstanding. See, they're McDonald's...
I'm McDowell's. They got the Golden Arches, mine is the
Golden Arcs. They got the Big Mac, I got the Big Mick. We
both got two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese,
pickles and onions, but their buns have sesame seeds. My
buns have no seeds.
