(Anyone who has watched a lot of Bugs Bunny knows how much the musical director liked to use old show tunes.) My favorite Yosemite Sam quotes: "I'm the roughest, toughest hombre this side of the Rio Grande! And I don't mean Mahatma Gandhi!" (totally gratuitous) "St. Louis? EMMA!! Come say hello to your Sammy boy!" (opens door and is blown away by cannon) -Steve Shiue "You may be big, but I'm small!" -Daffy Duck
