Quote #1
SULTAN: Dearest, you've got to stop rejecting every suitor that comes to call. The law says you...
SULTAN & JASMINE: ...must be married to a prince.
SULTAN: By your next birthday.
JASMINE: The law is wrong.
SULTAN: You've only got three more days!
JASMINE: Father, I hate being forced into this. If I do marry, I want it to be for love.
SULTAN: Jasmine, it's not only this law. I'm not going to be around forever, and I just want to make sure you're taken care of, provided for.
JASMINE: Try to understand. I've never done a thing on my own. I've never had any real friends. Except you, Rajah. I've never even been outside the palace walls.
SULTAN: But Jasmine, you're a princess.
JASMINE: Then maybe I don't want to be a princess.
Disney movies usually make being a princess look awesome, but Jasmine isn't digging it. She's got some serious #PrincessProblems to deal with: she's being forced into a marriage she doesn't want, and her entire life so far has been restricted to the palace. She's just as caged as her pet birds.
Quote #2
JASMINE: Oh, I'm sorry, Rajah. But I can't stay here and have my life lived for me. I'll miss you. Good bye!
What do you do when your dad is forcing you to choose a prince to marry in the next three days? Run away. Jasmine can't take the repression anymore, so she makes a break for it.
Quote #3
ALADDIN: Well, it's not much, but it's got a great view. Palace looks pretty amazing, huh?
JASMINE: Oh, it's wonderful.
ALADDIN: I wonder what it would be like to live there, to have servants and valets...
JASMINE: Oh, sure. People who tell you where to go and how to dress.
ALADDIN: It's better than here. Always scraping for food and ducking the guards.
JASMINE: You're not free to make your own choices.
ALADDIN: Sometimes you feel so—
JASMINE: You're just—
BOTH: —trapped.
Aladdin and Jasmine come from opposite worlds, but they sure have a lot in common. Both of them are trapped in circumstances they didn't ask for. They're both in cages. Sure, Aladdin's cage is dirt and rat-filled, while Jasmine's cage is gold plated with pretty jewels on it, but they're both still cages. Now might be a good time to kiss, guys?
