Black Butler Quotes

Sebastian Michaelis

A butler begins his day early. He is the last to finish his work late at night, and first to begin work in the morning; such is the duty of a butler who manages the household." 

(In reference to Funtom)"You see it's name here and there in greater London everyday. However...no one would guess...that the head of the company is among the children who love it's toys."

"I am the butler of the Phantomhive Family. It goes without saying that i can manage something like this."

"So long as the young master possesses 'the mark of the 'covenant'...I am his faithful dog. A sacrifice...a wish...and a covenant' bind me to my 'master."

"Young master. Forgive me. As butler of the Phantomhive Family, this is an unpardonable disgrace...I do not know how I should atone for this...I have been unable to prepare dinner this evening."

(in reference to Ciel) "...Why, this little bra-- young master. Does he believe he can get anything done so long as I am here to take care of it? He works his people(?) far too hard."

(in reference to Mey-Rin) Why, this imbec-- that is to say, housemaid. It would seem the problem no longer lies in her eyesight. Why does she fail to realise that there is something clearly wrong with her own brain and not the instructions? Word has it that the public adores silly maids. But I do not think I will ever understand it (and I have no intention of even trying to do so). I myself would like to wring her neck."

(in reference to Baldroy) "Why this imbec-- rather chef. You should talk about cooking after you have actually cooked' something. I believe eighty percent of what you have mangaed to 'cook'has been charcoal. Save your art for you hairstyle, and cook something edible...otherwise...I wish for you to become charcoal yourself."

(in reference to Finnian) "Why this imbec-- this imbecile!! How can a gardener be so clumsy? Though the saying goes, 'an idiot and a pair of scissors can both be of use', giving this useless idiot a pair of scissors is trouble in itself. He refers to something that happened two or three days ago as being 'a while back.' The way his brain can easily cast aside a blunder of that degree...I have surpassed anger, and I am, in fact rather impressed. 

"I am simply... one hell of a butler"
