"'We don't need no steenking badges!" – Bandit in The Treasure of the Sierra Madre The original quote is "Badges? We ain't got no badges! We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinkin' badges!" This quote is actually from the film Blazing Saddles, in an obvious spoof of the original source. When the newly recruited Mexican Bandits are presented badges for their participation in the upcoming raid on the town of Rock Ridge, the leader responds with: "Badges? We don't need no stinking badges." The line was again misquoted in the movie The Ninth Configuration, in which a group of mental patients spend their time playing a game called "Famous Lines from Famous Movies" where one person quotes a line and the rest must identify the movie. This is also quoted in the Weird Al Yankovic film UHF, with 'badges' replaced with 'badgers'.
"Spare the rod, spoil the child" There are numerous proverbs dealing with the subject of discipline in childrearing, but this is the closest: "He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes." – Bible (King James Version), Proverbs 13:24 This quote can be found in "Hudibras" by Samuel Butler a poem in the 1600's
