How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from The Incredibles.
Quote #1
MR. INCREDIBLE: Sometimes I think I'd just like the simple life, you know? Relax a little and raise a family.
Yeah, right. Although Mr. Incredible acts like he wants to be an average joe, we'll come to see that he doesn't fit the role quite as well as expected. Should've hired an understudy. Is Incrediboy still looking for a gig?
Quote #2
ELASTIGIRL: Settle down? Are you kidding? I'm at the top of my game. I'm right up there with the big dogs.
Ironically, it's Helen who's hesitant to dive into family life, yet when they actually do start a family together, she adapts far more quickly—and in a far healthier fashion—than Bob. Up there with the big dogs, indeed.
Quote #3
DASH: Dad always said our powers were nothing to be ashamed of. Our powers made us special.
Bob and Helen's conflicted relationship with their past lives rubs off on the Little Incredibles. Although they've been born with superpowers like their parents, they've never had the opportunity to use them, so they don't even have that to fall back on. It would like if Lebron James was never allowed to play basketball.
