Can I search for all quotes that were uttered by an actor's characters?

If an actor played, say, 15 characters, can I search all of these characters' quotes (if such exist, of course)?

Someone might come up with a fiendish way to get Google to cough up results like that (as there seems to be no way to do it in IMDB) but I genuinely can't figure out an angle of attack on the query (as the actor's name isn't give on the quote pages).

The only really way to do it would be through a database query with perhaps a few joins thrown in to connect actor to character (in specific film) to quotes.

It is an interesting question and I think it'd be worth posting this as a suggestion - I think being able to pull up all the quotes from someone like Arnie would be something people would be interested in (after all the quotes have entered popular culture, so some might be looking for the film it first appeared in). I'd +1 it.
