The new Barbie movie has seemingly taken over the world. We're not complaining, though! The film starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling hasn't just given us great cinema, but it has also inspired some fun Barbie recipes, Barbie Halloween costume ideas, and of course, the actual collectable dolls themselves! The feel-good movie is great for so many reasons, but the comedic banter and inspirational monologues has stuck with us even after just one watch. While picking out every line from the movie we loved would be impossible, we decided to list 20 of our favorite Barbie movie quotes.

Sure, you'll get a good laugh from many of these hilarious lines, like this famous Ken quote that gets us every time: “Yeah, because actually my job, it’s just Beach.” Even this quote from the Narrator (who just happens to be 1923 star Helen Mirren) is a good example: “Barbie has a great day every day, but Ken only has a great day if Barbie looks at him.” Other quotes on this list are certainly inspirational quotes that will definitely give you a different perspective. This quote from the inventor of Barbie is a great example: "We mothers stand still so our daughters can look back to see how far they have come." Read through them all, and you'll be reminded why the film was so great!
