Let’s take a look at the most infamous Gaston quotes from ‘Beauty and The Beast’ that remind us that beasts come in all shapes and forms and don’t always live in a castle.Inspiring Gaston QuotesGaston’s words were never quite inspiring in the movie. In fact, he was always quite condescending to others. However, a few gems spark inspiration by reminding us not to make the same mistake as Gaston. He honestly did not see anything wrong with his views, but we can see just how one-sided they were. Gaston only wanted Belle because she was not like the other women in town who were in love with him. However, he did not appreciate her love of books and reading.“It’s not right for a woman to read. Soon she starts getting ideas and thinking.““You know, Belle. There’s not a girl in town who wouldn’t love to be in your shoes.““Dismissed. Rejected. Publicly humiliated. Why, it’s more than I can bear.““Gaston: What for? Nothing helps. I’m disgraced.Lefou: Who, you? Never. Gaston, you’ve got to pull yourself together. Gosh it disturbs me to see you, Gaston, looking so down in the dumps. Every guy here’d love to be you, Gaston.““I’ll have Belle for my wife, make no mistake about that!““Yes, but ever since the war I’ve been missing something.““I needed encouragement; thank you, LeFou.““That’s what makes Belle so appealing. She hasn’t made a fool of herself just to gain my favor. What would you call that?““The only children you should concern yourself with are your own.““Who does she think she is? That girl has tangled with the wrong man. No one says ’no’ to Gaston!““Belle: Is he gone? Can you imagine, he asked me to marry him. Me, the wife of that boorish, brainless. Madame Gaston, can’t you just see it. Madame Gaston, his little wife Not me, no sir, I guarantee it. I want much more than this provincial life.““All right old man. We’ll help you out.““This is the day your dreams come true.““Yep. This is her lucky day!““Maybe you should take another look. Some of us have changed.““See I promised myself I’d be married to Belle, and right now I’m evolving a plan!““The point is, Belle would do anything to keep him from being locked up.““Have it your way.““Gaston: If I didn’t know better, I’d think you had feelings for this monster.Belle: He’s no monster Gaston. You are!““So it’s time to take some action, boys. It’s time to follow me!““It’s hero time!““If you’re not with us, you’re against us.““Screw your courage to the sticking place!““Get up! Get up! What’s the matter, Beast? Too kind and gentle to fight back?““Were you in love with her, beast? Did you honestly think she’d want you when she had someone like me?““Put me down. Put me down. Please, don’t hurt me! I’ll do anything! Anything!““Look, enough is enough. We have to turn back.““Don’t lose your nerve, LeFou.““There are no such things as beasts, or talking teacups, or… magic! But there are wolves, frostbite, and starvation.““This is our world, Belle. For simple folk like us, it doesn’t get any better.“Cute Gaston QuotesGaston may have been delusional in his quest to marry Belle, but he did have some cute things to say about her. These cute Gaston sayings were usually during his conversations with Lefou about Belle throughout the movie. However, Belle did not quite agree with his dreams of making her his wife and often told him to stop making plans. This did not deter Gaston, and he let his imagination run free with his future life with Belle.“And that makes her best. And don’t I deserve the best?““Just watch — I’m going to make Belle my wife!““It’s true, Lefou, and I’ve got my sights set on that one!““I’m just full of surprises.““Gaston: It’s the ones who play hard to get that are always the sweetest prey. That’s what makes Belle so appealing; she hasn’t made a fool of herself just to gain my favor. What would you call that?“LeFou: Dignity?Gaston: It’s outrageously attractive, isn’t it?““Maybe you haven’t met the right man.““She’s the one! The lucky girl I’m going to marry.““The most beautiful girl in town.““Right from the moment when I met her, saw her I said she’s gorgeous and I fell.““It’s like this. I’ve got my heart set on marrying Belle, but she needs a little persuasion.““Say you’ll marry me.““Ah LeFou, you’re the best. How is it that no girl has snatched you up yet?“Funny Gaston QuotesAs much as self-love is important, Gaston took it to a whole new level! His huge ego and love for his reflection provided some of the funniest quotes from the movie. In addition, his faithful friend Lefou was never shy to help remind him of his greatness. Whether it was making plans for a wedding that Belle didn’t even know about or rallying the town to go to the beast’s castle, Gaston added humor to everything he did without him even knowing it.“Here in town, there’s only she who is as beautiful as me. So, I’m making plans to woo and marry Belle.““You are the wildest, most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. No one deserves you, but at least I know our children will be beautiful.““Gaston: How can you read this? There’s no pictures!Belle: Well, some people use their imagination.““Belle, it’s about time you got your head out of those books and paid attention to more important things…like me!““I’d like to thank you all for coming to my wedding.

And now that I’m grown, I eat five dozen eggs so I’m roughly the size of a barge!““Who can make up these endless refrains like Gaston?““Yeah, don’t talk about her father that way!““Please, forgive me, old bean. That’s no way to talk to my future father-in-law, now is it?““Maurice, it pains me to say this, but you’ve become a danger to yourself and others. No wonder Belle ran away. You need help, sir. A place to heal your troubled mind.““Hey, whaddya say you and me take a walk over to the tavern and have a look at my hunting trophies.““That’s right! And every last bit of me’s covered with hair!““Well, there’s no one as easy to bolster as you!““I’m especially good at expectorating!““I use antlers in all of my decorating!““Gaston: Lefou, I’m afraid I’ve been thinking.Lefou: A dangerous pastime.Gaston: I know!““You’d hang your accusations on the testimonial of a filthy hag.
