Top rated lines from this movie

Hello, little girl. How dare you enter the Grinch's lair? The impudence! The audacity! The unmitigated gall!
I hate you. Hate, hate, hate. Hate, hate, hate. Double hate. Loathe entirely!
If you utter so much as one syllable, I'll hunt you down and gut you like a fish!
It came without ribbons! It came without tags! It came without packages, boxes or bags!
Be it ever so heinous, there's no place like home.
