Quotes and dialogue from the movie NACHO LIBRE starring Jack Black; movie written by Jared Hess, Jerusha Hess, and Mike White:

(Jack Black attempts to become a Mexican wresting champ as Nacho (aka Ignacio) in Nacho Libre.)

Sister Encarnacion: Well, my favorite color is light tan. My favorite animal is puppies. I like serving the lord. Hiking, play volleyball...
Nacho: You gotta be kidding me. Everything you just said, is MY favorite thing to do, every day!

Nacho: Ok. Orphans! Listen to Ignacio. I know it is fun to wrestle. A nice pile drive to the face... or a punch to the face... but you cannot do it. Because, it is in the Bible not to wrestle your neighbor.
Chancho: So you've never wrestled?
Nacho: Me? No. Come on. Don't be crazy. I know the wrestlers get all the fancy ladies, and the clothes, and the fancy creams and lotions. But my life is good! Really good! I get to wake up every morning, at 5am, and make some soup! It's the best. I love it. I get to lay in a bed, all by myself, all of my life! That's fantastic! Go. Go away! Read some books!

Nacho: I am the gatekeeper to my own destiny and I will have my glory day in the hot sun.

Nacho: Precious Father, why have you given me this desire to wrestle and then made me such a stinky warrior?

Nacho: When you are a man, sometimes you wear stretchy pants.

FRANKIE: Doesn't that mean you're drunk?

FREDDY: It means you're an alcoholic.

Dewey Finn: Ok, Freddy Jones, shut up!
