Shug: I think it pisses God off when you walk sa pamamagitan ng the color purple in a field and don't notice it.
Shug: madami than anything God pag-ibig admiration.
Celie: You saying God is vain?
Shug: No, not vain, just wanting to share a good thing. I think it pisses God off when you walk sa pamamagitan ng the colour purple in a field and don't notice it.
Celie: You saying it just wanna be loved like it say in the bible?
Shug: Yeah, Celie. Everything wanna be loved. Us sing and dance, and holla just wanting to be loved. Look at them trees. Notice how the trees do everything people do to get attention... except walk?
[they laugh]
Shug: Oh, yeah, this field feels like singing!

Upon arrival of Shug Avery at Mister's house:
Harpo: Who this, Pa? Who this?
Albert: The woman that shoulda been yo' mammy.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Celie: The jail you planned for me is the one you're gonna rot in.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Celie: [lunging towards Albert with a knife] I curse you. Until you do right sa pamamagitan ng me everything you think about is gonna crumble!
Sofia: Don't do it Mrs. Celie. Don't trade places with what I been through.
Shug: Come on, Celie, let's go to the car.
Sofia: He ain't worth it, he ain't worth it.
Albert: Who you think you is? You can curse nobody. Look at you. Your black, you're poor, you're ugly, you're a woman, you're nothing at all!
Celie: Until you do right sa pamamagitan ng me, everything you even think about gonna fail!
Grady: It's been a pleasure meeting all of you. Good-bye.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Upon seeing Celie when she arrives at Mister's:
Shug: [to Celie] You sho' is ugly!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Squeak: Hapo! Who dis woman?
Harpo: Now come now, you know who this is.

Old Mr.: Celie, you has my sympathy. Ain't many women allow they husband's ho to lay up in they house.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Old Mr.: [Sofia begins to laugh after years of silence] My God, the dead has arisen.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Albert: What?
Shug: Celie is coming with us to Memphis.
Albert: Over my dead body.
Shug: You satisfied? That what you want?
Albert: [to Celie] NOW What's wrong with you?
Celie: You a low down dirty dog, that's what's wrong. Time for me to get away from you, and enter into Creation. And your dead body'd be just the welcome mat I need.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sofia: [after telling Celie she knows how she feels] Oh... Sofia home, now. Sofia home. Things is gonna be changin' around here. Pass me them peas, boy.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sofia: Sat in that jail, I sat in that jail til I near about done rot to death. I know what it like to wanna go somewhere and cain't. I know what it like to wanna sing... and have it beat out 'ya.

And when I seed you - I know'd there is a God. I know'd there is a God.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shug: I's married now! I's married now!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sofia: Sofia's happy now.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sofia: Now you want a dead son-in-law, Mrs. Celie? You just keep on advising him like you doing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Celie: Shug like honey. And now, I's just like a bee.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
