Favorite movie (or TV quote)

[Flying Spaghetti Monster]

We all need inspiration, and sometimes film can offer poignant words that help us through life, and maybe can stand apart outside the context of the film. The film doesn't need to be as great as the quote!

Whether they do or not, what are your favorite quotes?

My favorite quote is from Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. It really is something I quote to a lot of people, and it helps them through a lot of tough times.

It's from Azeem (Morgan Freeman's character):
"A wise man once said: "There are no perfect men in the world; only perfect intentions."

 

[Flying Spaghetti Monster]

Mods: can you move the parenthesis so it doesn't surround the word "quote"?

 

[Admiral2]

Colonel Jack O'Neill, Stargate:

"Give my regards to King Tut, asshole!"

It inspires me to laugh.

 

[JoeZhang]

"We can co-operate right?"

"WRONG".

"Hey, Ryan, be careful what you shoot at, hmm? Mosh tings in herah, don react too well to bullish."

"My God, man! Drilling holes in his head's not the answer!"

 

[Flying Spaghetti Monster]

"Hey, Ryan, be careful what you shoot at, hmm? Mosh tings in herah, don react too well to bullish."

[Greg Cox]

In honor of Peter O'Toole:

"If God could do the tricks that we can do, He'd be a happy man!"

Or:

"Nothing is written!"

 

[Davros]

Radiation, yes indeed. You hear the most outrageous lies about it. Half baked goggle boxxed do gooders telling everybody it's bad for you. Pernicious nonsense!-Repo Man

 

[Greg Cox]

"I am SHOCKED! SHOCKED that there is gambling going on here!" -Casablanca

Claude Rains get all the good lines in that movie.

"I like to think you murdered a man. It's the romantic in me."

 

[auntiehill]

Raiders of the Lost Ark:
It's not the years, honey. It's the mileage.

 

[Gary Mitchell]

Mike Torello (Dennis Farina) in Crime Story : "Hey you. You hurt anybody else, when this is over, I'm gonna find what you love the most and I'm gonna kill it. Your mother, your father, your dog... don't matter what it is, it's dead."

 

[Admiral2]

"Hey, Ryan, be careful what you shoot at, hmm? Mosh tings in herah, don react too well to bullish."

my favorite movie!!!

Mine too! Favorite exchange:

CARRIER CAPTAIN: "The Bird's loaded down with enough fuel to get you there but Dallas may not be there! We're trying to get a message to her now, but if she's gone deep, it's done! if you have to ditch...don't think about anything but the survival gear! At this water's temperature you'll have about four minutes!"

RYAN: "I'll try to remember that!" (then low) "Next time, Jack, write a goddamned memo..."

 

[Flying Spaghetti Monster]

MARDUKAS: Jahé, everybody, jahé
WALSH: What's that?
MARDUKAS: It means 'hello'. I can say 'hello' in a lot of different languages. Not yours, but a lot of them.



MARDUKAS: I got money, you know.
WALSH: I'm sure you do.
MARDUKAS: I'l give you whatever you want.
WALSH: Start by shutting up. I know you all of two minutes and already I don't like ya.
MARDUKAS: Gee, that's too bad. I really like you.



SERRANO: You and that other dummy better start getting more personally involved in your work, or I'm gonna stab you through the heart with a fuckin' pencil. Do you understand me?


SERRANO: Make yourself a sandwich, drink a glass of milk... Do some fuckin' thing.

(You gotta love the late great Denis Farina saying those lines. No one could pull that off like him.)


MARDUKAS: You lied to me first!
WALSH: What the - -YOU LIED TO ME FIRST!
MARDUKAS: Yes! Yes. But you didn't know I was lying to you when you lied to me down by the river. So as far as you knew, you lied to me first!
WALSH: How can I argue with this guy. I don't know what the fuck he's talking about.


MARDUKAS: [as Jack is stealing a truck] I don't like this. I don't like anything you do, to tell you the truth. Nothing.


I still believe that, despite Robert DeNiro being one of the best actors in history with some fantastic work, that he gives his best performance, bar none, as Jack Walsh. There, I've said it. And his chemistry with Grodin is unequaled.

"You are the Vulgarian, YOU FUCK!!"
- A Fish Called Wanda


"Ladies and gentlemen, I'll be brief. The issue here is not whether we broke a few rules, or took a few liberties with our female party guests - we did.

But you can't hold a whole fraternity responsible for the behavior of a few, sick twisted individuals. For if you do, then shouldn't we blame the whole fraternity system? And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn't this an indictment of our educational institutions in general? I put it to you, Greg - isn't this an indictment of our entire American society?

Well, you can do whatever you want to us, but we're not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America. Gentlemen!"
- Animal House

"Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya..."

Shit. I forgot the rest.

 

[BigJake]

"Hello. My name is Indigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."

A fave from The Princess Bride, right along with: "Why do you keep using that word? I do not think it means what you think it means."

A few from Kiss Kiss Bang Bang:

Harry: . . . But it's abandonment, it's abuse, it's, "My uncle put his ping-ping in my pah-pah!"... and then they all come out here! ... I mean, it's literally like someone took America by the East Coast and *shook* it, and all the normal girls managed to hang on.
Harmony: OK, everyone who hates Harry raise your hand!
[all the girls in the club raise their hands]
Perry: See that? Obedient little bitches too.
[girl screams "Fuck you!" and throws a glass, which he dodges]

Harry: Do you think I'm stupid?
Perry: I don't think you'd know where to put food at, if you didn't flap your mouth so much. Yes. I think you're stupid.

Perry: You don't get it, do you? This isn't "good cop, bad cop." This is fag and New Yorker. You're in a lot of trouble.

Harmony: Well, for starters, she's been fucked more times than she's had hot meals.
Harry: Yeah, I heard about that. It was neck-and-neck and then she skipped lunch.

Harry: Still gay?
Perry: Me? No. I'm knee-deep in pussy. I just like the name so much, I can't get rid of it.

Mr. Frying Pan: Well now, here we all are. Ike, Mike and Mustard.
Harry: What the hell does that mean?
Mr. Fire: You know, I'm with him on this one, man, that's pretty fuckin' obscure.

Could quote that movie forever. Don't even get me started on The Big Lebowski.

And from The Lion in Winter, in honour of Peter O'Toole:

Prince John: A knife! He's got a knife!
Eleanor: Of course he has a knife, he always has a knife, we all have knives! It's 1183 and we're barbarians!

Prince Geoffrey: I know. You know I know. I know you know I know. We know Henry knows, and Henry knows we know it. We're a knowledgeable family.

Henry II: I found out the way your mind works and the kind of man you are. I know your plans and expectations - you've burbled every bit of strategy you've got. I know exactly what you will do, and exactly what you won't, and I've told you exactly nothing. To these aged eyes, boy, that's what winning looks like!

The Doctor: Never run when you're scared.
Doctor Who, Let's Kill Hitler.


Shaggar: How would you like to die, Tyrion, son of Tywin?
Tyrion: In my own bed, at the age of 80, with a belly full of wine and a girls mouth around my c**k.
Game of Thrones, The Pointy End.
