Tigger

• [singing his song "The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers"] Oh, I'm bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy!
  Fun, fun, fun, fun, fun!
  But the most wonderful thing about Tiggers is that I'm the only one
  I'm the only one!
  Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
• This is how you're going to get the backson.
• Hey, Piglet, buddy, it's me, Tigger! Do you remember me?!

Dialogue

[from trailer]

Tigger: Bluga-dee-bloo!

[Tigger pounces on top of Pooh]

Pooh: A simple hello would do, thank you very much.

Tigger: It's a dangerous path I bounce, but I bounce it alone. Because the Hundred Acre Wood needs a hero, Pooh Bear, and I'm the only one.

Owl: Yes, well, the thing to do is as follows: First, issue a reward...

Pooh: Gesundheit.

Owl: I beg your pardon?

Pooh: Well, you sneezed just as you were going to tell me what the first thing to do was.

Owl: I didn't sneeze.

Eeyore: Oh, you did, Owl.

Owl: No, I didn't! You can't sneeze without knowing it!

Pooh: Well, you can't know it without something haven't been sneezed.

Owl: As I was saying, first: issue a reward...

Pooh: [to Eeyore] He's doing it again. [to Owl] You must be catching a cold.

Eeyore: [gloomily] I'll probably catch it, too.

Owl: [frustrated] No, no, no! I'm not catching a cold! The word is ISSUE, not AH-CHOO! And 'ah-choo' isn't even a word! It's just some sort of sneezy sound, like 'Ah-choo!'

Pooh: Perhaps you should lie down, Owl.

Owl: Oh! [hits himself on the forehead and falls over backwards]

Pooh: Perhaps I could borrow some honey.

[Pooh's stomach growls]

Pooh: Just a taste. A small lick, I should think.

Christopher Robin: Silly old bear.

[Pooh, Rabbit, Owl, Eeyore, Kanga and Roo are trapped in a hole and Piglet gets a rope - only to cut it up into six pieces]

Piglet: And six! There! Now we can ALL get out!

Pooh: How very thoughtful you are, Piglet.

Rabbit: [loses patience] Good grief! Tie them together, Piglet! Can you tie a knot?

Piglet: I cannot.

Rabbit: Ah, so you CAN knot.

Piglet: No. I cannot knot.

Rabbit: [in disbelief] Not knot?

Pooh: Who's there?

Rabbit: Pooh!

Pooh: Pooh who?

Rabbit: No! Pooh... eh... Piglet, you'll need more than two knots.

Piglet: Not possible.

Owl: Ah, so it is possible to knot those pieces.

Piglet: Not these pieces!

Pooh: Yes. Knot those pieces.

Piglet: Why not?

Eeyore: Because it's all for naught.

Pooh: Have you ever had one of those days when you just can't win, Eeyore?

Eeyore: Yup, I know how that feels.

[last lines; in the post-credits scene]

The Backson: [enters stomping until he spots the trail of objects] Wow! It's amazing what you can find in the woods. A marble! And a boot! [picks up blackboard with picture of Backson] And oh, my, that's a scary looking fella. Gosh, maybe these are his things. You know, I better pick 'em up so they won't get broken. That's the last thing I would want. [falls in pit] Whoa! Oh, my gosh! Is this a pit? I think I'm in a pit! Hello! Anybody up there? Oh, well. I hope that fella will be back soon.
