Dead
Poets Society (1989)
John Keating: We don't read
and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we
are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion.
And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and
necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are
what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, "O me! O life!... of the
questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless--of
cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life? Answer.
That you are here - that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play
goes on and you may contribute a verse." That the powerful play goes on
and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?
Keating: Sucking all the marrow out of life doesn't mean choking on the bone.
Daulton : (answering phone) Welton Academy, hello? ... Yes he is, hold on. Mr. Nolan, it's for you. (holds up phone) It's God. He says we should have girls at Welton.
John Keating : Why do we need language?
Neil Perry : To communicate...
John Keating : Nooo!! To woo women!
Keating: No matter what anybody tells you, words & ideas can change the world.
Keating: Now I'd like you to step forward over here. They're not that different from you, are they? Same haircuts. Full of hormones, just like you. Invincible, just like you feel. The world is their oyster. They believe they're destined for great things, just like many of you, their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to make from their lives even one iota of what they were capable? Because, you see gentlemen, these boys are now fertilizing daffodils. But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it? --- Carpe --- hear it? --- Carpe, carpe diem, seize the day boys, make your lives extraordinary.
Nurse: (Whispering at Viola's
bedroom door.) Madame, the house is stirring. It is a new day.
Viola: It is a new WORLD.

dad's dead. Hey, is that egg nog?
Scientist: I've invented a
pill that gives worms to ex-girlfriends.
Don: Uh, right, and what's
positive about that?
Scientist: Well, it's a pill
that gives worms to ex-girlfriends.
Don: Couldn't it also give
worms to ex-boyfriends?
Scientist: This is a drug...
for the world... to give worms to ex-girlfriends.
Don: Well, great. Thanks
for stopping by.
Scientist: You just don't
get it here!
Cabbie: When I was a little
boy, my mother used to sing me a song. It went like this: "Life is short,
life is shit, and soon it will be over."

crazy, psalm-singing, skinny old maid!
Charlie: How'd you like it?
Rose: Like it?
Charlie: White water rapids!
Rose: I never dreamed...
Charlie: I don't blame you for being scared - not
one bit. Nobody with good sense ain't scared of white water...
Rose: I never dreamed that any mere physical experience
could be so stimulating!
Charlie: We can't do that!
Rose: How do you know? You never tried it.
Charlie: Well, yeah, but I never tried shooting
myself in the head neither.
Captain of Louisa: By the authority vested in me by Kaiser William II, I pronounce you husband and wife. Proceed with the execution.

anthem.

You are skating nowhere. And you , where are you going? Back to Siberia?
Skating on small pond is big fun, eh? And let me tell you, Gretzky, I am
last person coming to look for you.
Kate: When we are through here, can we teach it how to breathe with its mouth closed?
Kate: Oh my god.
Doug: What, my hand?
Kate: Well what do you do, soak them in battery
acid?
Doug: Oh, I know they're a little rough, but you

guy who came a long way for lunch.
Kate: Well, please don't let me keep you from the
trough.
Kate: What do you do, shower once a week?
Doug: Is that an invitation?
Doug: If we gonna work together, you might try and
be polite.
Kate: You're not gonna be here long enough to make
it worth the effort.
Doug: You don't think I can put up with your shit?
Kate: I don't think you can skate.
Doug: There are only two things I do really well,
sweetheart, and skatings' the other one.
Kate: God, you really are a Neanderthal.
Doug: I hate to tell you, but I'm from Minnesota,
thats south of Neanderthal.
Kate: What were you planning on doing when your
gladiatoring days were over?
Doug: You can bet your tights I never thought I'd
be working a freak show like this.
Kate: I'm surprised you don't chuck it all and
start your own think tank.
Kate: If you're so bored, why don't you read?
Doug: What do you mean? A book?
Kate: That is an traditionally accepted format
- yes.
Doug: Is this the beginning of a conversation here?
Kate: I was just simply asking if you knew how
to read.
Doug: Yes. Doug. Can. Read.
Doug: So what do you do for fun? Polish your knife
collection?
Kate: I'm sure I don't do anything you would find
exciting.... I don't open beer bottles with my toes. I don't sit around
and count what's left of my teeth.... Hey, I don't even enjoy a good tractor
pull. A bit limited existence, but I've gotten used to it.
Doug: Life of the party, huh? Place must be crawling
with guys.
Kate: As a matter of fact, I do have a boyfriend.
Doug: There's a rough gig. What do you do with
him? Keep him chained up in the basement?
Kate: Hale at the moment is working at my father's
London office. He's an MBA. Harvard. You might have heard of it - they
do have a hockey team.
Doug: He must be a very smart guy. I bet you look
pretty good from a few thousand miles away.
Doug: Well, you know Kate.
Hale: Yes I do, and I don't like to see her upset.
Doug: If I were you, I would invest in blindfolds.

wish you never met me.
Jack: I’m already there.
Mack: We just got a ransom demand from your dead terrorist.
Tourist: We’re at the airport.
Ortiz: Yeah, so?
Tourist: (disappointed) I’ve already seen the airport.
Jack: (to Annie) Can you handle this bus?
Annie: Oh sure, it’s just like driving a big Pinto.
Annie: (explaining why she’s riding the bus instead
of driving herself) I had my driver’s licence revoked.
Jack: For what?
Annie: Speeding.
Annie: (after the bus explodes into a rolling airplane) I hate the airport.
Howard: Jack, you know I’m on top of you. Nothing tricky now. Do not attempt to grow a brain.
Ortiz: You ain’t too bright, man, but you got some
big hairy cajones.
Jack: That’s really gross, Ortiz.
Ortiz: Can’t pay a man a compliment.
Mack: (speaking to the other officers after finding out that 50 feet of the freeway are missing) You’re fired! You’re all fucking fired!
Jack: (hands the cell phone over to the tourist)
Sir, I want you to take this and tell him what I say…. (later he after
seeing the bomb beneath the bus) Fuck me.
Tourist: (relaying the message as ordered) “Oh
darn.”
Annie: Relationships that start on intense circumstances? They never last.
Mack: How many lives do you got, man?!
Jack: (to Annie, after she drove the bus over the freeway gap) You missed your calling… You should’ve been a pilot.
Howard: You know what a bomb is that doesn’t explode?
It’s a cheap gold watch!
Jack: You’re crazy.
Howard: (now with his hostage money) Poor people
are crazy, Jack. I’m eccentric.
The Santa Monica Bank advertisement on the back
of bus: Money isn’t everything. (Yeah, right).

in the way of my actualization as a man.

what a metaphysical can of worms this portal is?
Dexter: Be whatever you want -- you're my redhead.
Tracey: Oh, Mike, put me in your pocket!
Macaulay: This is the Bridal
Suite. Send us up some caviar sandwiches and a bottle of beer.
Margaret: Who is this?
Macaulay: This is the Voice
of Doom calling. Your days are numbered, to the seventh son of the seventh
son!
Dexter: I thought all writers
drank to excess and beat their wifes. You know one time I secretly wanted
to be a writer.
Dexter: Orange juice, certainly.
Tracey: Don't tell me you've
forsaken your beloved whisky and whiskies.
Dexter: No-no-no-no. I've
just changed their colour, that's all. I'm going for the pale pastel shades
now. There're more becoming of me.
Magaret: We both might face
the facts that neither of us has proved to be a very great success as a
wife.
Tracey: We just picked the
wrong first husband.
Jurassic
Park (1993)
Ian Malcolm: I'm always on the lookout for the
next ex-Mrs. Malcolm.
Alan: You married?
Ian: Occasionally
Henry Wu: You are saying that a group of animals,
entirely composed of females, will breed?
Ian: No, I am merely stating that, uh... life finds
a way.
Ian: Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.
Ian: God creates dinosaurs. God destroys dinosaurs.
God creates man. Man destroys God. Man creates dinosaurs...
Ellie: Dinosaurs eat man. Woman inherits the earth...
Ian: The complete lack of humility for nature that's
being displayed here is staggering.
Clue
(1985)
Mrs. White: He had threatened
to kill me in public.
Ms. Scarlett: Why would he
want to kill you in public?
Wadsworth: I think she meant,
he threatened in public to kill her.
Ms. Scarlett: Oh.
Col. Mustard: Wadsworth, am
I right in thinking there is no body else in this house?
Wadsworth: Ummm, no.
Col. Mustard: Then there
is someone else in this house?
Wadsworth: No, sorry. I said
no meaning yes.
Col. Mustard: No meaning
yes? Look I want a straight answer, is there someone else, or isn't there?
Yes or no?
Wadsworth: Ummm, no.
Col. Mustard: No there is,
or no there isn't?
Wadsworth: Yes.
Mrs Peacock: Do you know if
there is a ladies room around?
Yvette: (points) Oui oui,
Madame.
Mrs. Peacock: No, no, I just
have to powder my nose.
Wadsworth: Frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn.
Wadsworth: But he was your
second husband. Your first husband also disappeared.
White: But that was his job.
He was an illusionist.
Wadsworth: But he never reappeared.
White: He wasn't a very good
illusionist.
Mrs. White: It's a matter of life after death, now that he's dead I have a life.
Wadsworth: Professor Plum,
you were once a professor of psychiatry specializing in helping paranoid
and homicidal lunatics suffering from delusions of grandeur.
Professor Plum: Yes, but now I work for the United Nations.
Wadsworth: Well your work
has not changed.
Mrs. White: Husbands should be like Kleenex: soft, strong, and disposable.
Col. Mustard: How many husbands
have you had?
Mrs. White: Mine or other
women's?

house in a lightning storm)
Miss Scarlett: Why has the
car stopped?
Professor Plum: It's frightened.
The
Blair Witch Project (1999)
Heather: I'm scared to close
my eyes. I'm scared to open them.
Josh: You gonna write us a happy ending, Heather?
Josh: I see why you like this
video camera so much.
Heather: You do?
Josh: It's not quite reality.
It's like a totally filtered reality. It's like you can pretend everything's
not quite the way it is.
Mike: I found some cigarettes. I found them all the way in the bottom of my pack. We're still alive 'cause we're smoking.
Josh: (looking through Heather's
camera) It's not the same on film is it? I mean, you know it's real, but
it's like looking through the lens gives you some sort of protection from
what's on the other side.
Ian: The complete lack of humility for nature that's
being displayed here is staggering.
Big
Daddy (1999)
Sonny: Having a kid is great...
as long as his eyes are closed and he's not moving or talking.
Vanessa: (talking of her senior
citizen boyfriend) He has a five year plan.
Sonny Koufax: What is it?
"Don't die"?
Sonny Koufax: The kid just won't quit peeing and throwing up. He's like a cocker spaniel.
It
Happened One Night (1934)
(talking of Ellie Andrews)
Alexander Andrews: I asked you a simple question!
Do you love her?
Peter: YES!! But don't hold that against me, I'm
a little screwy myself!
Peter: Let's get this straightened out right now.
If you're nursing any silly notion that I'm interested in you, forget it.You're
just a headline to me.
Ellie: A headline? You're not a newspaper man are
you?
Peter: Chalk up one for your side.
Die
Hard (1988)
(Speaking about McClane.)
Powell: In fact, I think he's a cop. Maybe not
LAPD, but he's definitely a badge.
Robinson: How do you know that?
Powell: A hunch, things he said. Like being able
to spot a phony ID.
Robinson: Jesus Christ, Powell, he could be a fucking
bartender
for all we know!
Gruber: This time John Wayne does not walk off into
the sunset with Grace Kelly.
McClane: That was Gary Cooper, asshole.
(McClane tries to call up police)
Supervisor : Attention, whoever you are.
This channel is reserved for emergency calls only...
John McClane : No fucking shit, lady! Do
I sound like I'm ordering a pizza?
McClane: (in a small air duct) Now I know what a TV dinner feels like.
The
First Wives Club (1996)
Brenda: My Morty became this big shot on TV...then
it hits: midlife crisis. Major. He starts working out. He grows a mustache.
He gets an earring! I said, "Morty, what are you, a pirate? What's next,
a parrot?"
Dr. Morris Packman: If I give you any more collagen, they'll look like they were stuck in a pool drain.
Catherine: You are married. You have a daughter. You don't need self-esteem.
Dr. Morris Packman: If I give you another face lift
you are going to be able to blink your lips!
Hope
Floats (1998)
Birdee: Beginnings are scary.
Endings are usually sad, but it's what's in the middle that counts. So,
when you find yourself at the beginning, just give hope a chance to float
up. And it will.
Bringing
Up Baby (1938)
Susan: There is a leopard on your roof and
it's my leopard and I have to get it and to get it I have to sing.
David: Now it isn't that I don't like you, Susan, because, after all, in moments of quiet, I'm strangely drawn toward you, but... well, there haven't been any quiet moments.
Mrs. Random: Well, you look perfectly idiotic in
those clothes.
David: These aren't my clothes.
Mrs. Random: Well, where are your clothes?
David: I've lost my clothes!
Mrs. Random: But why are you wearing *these* clothes?
David: Because I just went gay all of a sudden!
Susan: (stuck in jail) Anyway, David, when they
find out who we are they'll let us out.
David: When they find out who you are they'll
pad the cell.
Dumb
and Dumber (1994)
Harry: Yeah I called her
up, she gave me a bunch of crap about me not listening to her, or something,
I don't know, I wasn't really paying attention.
Airport Clerk: Sir, you can't
go in there!
Lloyd: It's ok, I'm a limo
driver!
Harry: I can't believe we
drove around all day, and there's not a single job in this town. There
is nothing, nada, zip!
Lloyd: Yeah! Unless you wanna
work fourty hours a week.
Lloyd: When I met Mary, I
got that old fashioned romantic feeling, where I'd do anything to bone
her.
Harry: That's a special feeling.
Harry: Once, we successfully
mated a bulldog with a shitsu.
Mary: Really?
Harry: Yeah, we called it
a bullshit.
Fight
Club (1999)
Tyler: You are not your job.
You are not the money in your bank account. You are not the car you drive.
You are not how much money is in your wallet. You are not your fucking
khakis. You are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.
Marla: (with cash in hand) You're not getting this back. I consider it asshole tax.
Narrator: If I had a tumor, I'd name it Marla.
Tyler: The things you own end up owning you.
Narrator: I am Jack's smirking revenge.
Tyler: It's only after you've lost everything that you're free to do anything.
Tyler: Our generation has had no Great Depression, no Great War. Our war is spiritual. Our depression is our lives.
Conspiracy
Theory (1997)
Jerry: Love gives you wings.
It makes you fly. I don't even call it love. I call it Geronimo. When you're
in love, you'll jump right from the top of the Empire State and you won't
care, screaming "Geronimo" the whole way down. I love her so bad, I just...
whoa, she wrecks me. I'd die for her.
Jonas: In one hour, I want to know where she eats, where she sleeps, the name of her kindergarten teacher, everything.
Jerry: It's on the tip of my brain.
Jerry: I am an American citizen, and I demand to see Alice Sutton!
Jerry: I love you.
Alice: Jerry, no, no, you
don't love me.
Jerry: Sure I do.
Alice: No, no.
Jerry: I don't?
Alice Sutton: I love you.
Jerry Fletcher: Now you tell
me.
Jerry: You can't hurt me any
more.
Jonas: I'll be the judge
of that.
Agent Lowry: If the intelligence community is a family, think of us as the uncle no one talks about.
Alice: This guy's a restraining order waiting to happen.
Jerry: The Vietnam War was fought over a bet that Howard Hughes lost to Aristotle Onassis.
Alice: (speaking of Dr. Jonas'
injury) He said a dog bit his nose.
Jerry: Arf.
Jerry: I'm only paranoid because they want me dead.
Jonas: Have you ever been a place where hope was gone? Where all that's left is patience?
Jerry: To be normal, to drink Coca-Cola and eat Kentucky Fried Chicken is to be in a conspiracy against yourself.
Jerry: A good conspiracy is unprovable. I mean, if you can prove it, it means they screwed up somewhere along the line.
Alice: (speaking to him through
a narrow air vent) Where are you, Jerry?
Jerry: I'm here.
Alice: Where's here, Jerry?
Jerry: On the floor.
Jerry: I resolve to call her
up a thousand times a day, and ask her if she'll marry me in some old fashioned
way. Every little thing she does is magic.
Alice: Jerry, those are song
lyrics!
Jerry: (Walking through a metal detector.) Why is this thing safe for me and not for my keys?
Jerry: David Berkowitz, Ted
Bundy, Richard Speck...
Alice: What about them?
Jerry: Serial killers. Serial
killers only have two names. You ever notice that? But lone gunmen assassins,
they always have three names. John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, Mark
David Chapman...
Alice: John Hinckley. He
shot Reagan. He only has two names.
Jerry: Yeah, but he only
just shot Reagan. Reagan didn't die. If Reagan had died, I'm pretty sure
we probably would all know what John Hinckley's middle name was.
(Later in the movie. . .
)
Jerry: I just thought of
another one: James Earl Ray, the guy who got Luther King. Then of course,
there's Sirhan Sirhan. I still haven't figured that one out. Maybe it's
Sirhan Sirhan Sirhan, I don't know.
Practical
Magic (1998)
Gary Hallet: Did you kill
Jimmy Angelov?
Sally Owens: Yeah, a couple
of times.
Aunt Frances: My darling girl, when are you going to understand that "normal" is not necessarily a virtue? It rather denotes a lack of courage
La
Vita è bella (Life is Beautiful) (1997)
Guido (to his son in the
concentration camp): You can lose all your points for any one of three
things. One: If you cry. Two: If you ask to see your mother. Three: If
you're hungry and ask for a snack! Forget it!
Guido: What kind of place is this? It's beautiful: Pigeons fly, women fall from the sky! I'm moving here!
Guido: Buongiorno, Principessa!
Con
Air (1997)
Duncan Malloy: What's with
dictionary-boy over here?
Vince Larkin: I believe thesaurus-boy
would be more appropriate.
Garland Greene: He's a fountain of misplaced rage. Name your cliche; Mother held him too much or not enough, last picked at kickball, late night sneaky uncle, whatever. Now he's so angry that moments of levity actually cause him pain; give him headaches. Happiness, for that gentleman, hurts.
Vince Larkin: Are you with me or do you need me to draw it in crayon like usual?
Billy Bedlam: Have you lost your mind?
Cyrus: According to my last psych evaluation, yes.
Garland Greene: ("Sweet Home Alabama" is playing in the background) Define irony: a bunch of idiots dancing around on a plane to a song made famous by a band that died in a plane crash.
Garland Greene: What if I told you insane was working fifty hours a week in some office for fifty years at the end of which they tell you to piss off; ending up in some retirement village hoping to die before suffering the indignity of trying to make it to the toilet on time? Wouldn’t you consider that to be insane?
The
Matrix (1999)
Neo: I know you're out there.
I can feel you now. I know that you're afraid... afraid of us. You're afraid
of change. I don't know the future. I didn't come here to tell you how
this is going to end. I came here to tell how it's going to begin. I'm
going to hang up this phone, and then show these people what you don't
want them to see. I'm going to show them a world without you. A world without
rules or controls, borders or boundaries. A world where anything is possible.
Where we go from there is a choice I leave to you.
Neo: Why do my eyes hurt?
Morpheus: You've never used
them before.
Morpheus: There is a difference between knowing the path and walking the path.
Morpheus: Have you ever had a dream, Neo, that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream? How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?
Agent Smith: I'd like to share a revelation that I've had, during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to an area, and you multiply, and multiply, until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet, you are a plague, and we are the cure.
Morpheus: What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life, that there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad.
Morpheus: Throughout human history, we have been dependent on machines to survive. Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony.
Joe
Versus the Volcano (1990)
Patricia: My father says
that almost the whole world is asleep. Everybody you know. Everybody you
see. Everybody you talk to. He says that only a few people are awake and
they live in a state of constant total amazement.
Joe: I've never been to L.A.
before.
Angelica: What do you think?
Joe: It looks fake. I like
it!
Angelica: You're in a rotten
mood.
Patricia: It's the sunshine.
Gets me down.
Patricia: You mean you were diagnosed with something called a brain cloud and didn't ask for a second opinion?
Forrest
Gump (1994)
Lieutenant Dan: Have you
found God yet, Gump?
Forrest Gump: I didn't know
I was supposed to be looking for him.
Man at Bench: It was a bullet,
wasn't it?
Forrest Gump: A bullet?
Man at Bench: That jumped
up and bit you.
Forrest Gump: Oh, yes sir.
Bit me right in the buttocks. They said it was a million dollar wound,
but the army must keep that money 'cause I still haven't seen a nickel
of that million dollars.
Forrest Gump: Sometimes, there just aren't enough rocks.
Jenny Curran: Have you ever been with a girl, Forrest?
Forrest Gump: I sit next to them in my home economics
class all the time.
President Kennedy (Jed Gillin): Congratulations.
How do you feel?
Forrest Gump: I gotta pee.
Forrest: He was from a long great military tradition. Somebody from his family had fought and died in every single American war. I guess you could say he had a lot to live up to.
Mrs. Gump: Don't you be afraid, sweetheart. Death is just a part of life, something we're all destined to do.
Mrs. Gump: I happen to believe you make your own
destiny. You have to do the best with what God gave you.
Forrest Gump: What's my destiny, Mama?
Mrs. Gump: You're gonna have to figure that out
for yourself. Life is a box of chocolates, Forrest. You never know what
you're gonna get.
Forrest Gump: (referring to Apple Computer) He got me invested in some kinda fruit company.
Forrest Gump: I don't know if we each have a destiny, or if we're all just floatin' around accidental-like on a breeze. But I, I think maybe it's both, maybe both happening at the same time.
Drill Sergeant: Gump! What's
your sole purpose in this army?
Forrest Gump: To do whatever
you tell me, drill sergeant!
Drill Sergeant: God damn
it, Gump! You're a god damn genius! This is the most outstanding answer
I have ever heard. You must have a goddamn I.Q. of 160. You are goddamn
gifted, Private Gump.
Forrest Gump: Lieutenant Dan,
what are you doing here?
Lieutenant Dan: I'm here
to try out my sea legs.
Forrest Gump: But you ain't
got no legs, Lieutenant Dan.
A
Night at the Roxbury (1998)
Doug: You can take our car,
and you can take our keys, but you cannot take away our dreams!
Steve: Yeah, because we're
sleeping when we have them!
Trainspotting
(1996)
Renton: We would have injected vitamin C if only
they had made it illegal!
Mother Superior: Would sir care for a starter of
some garlic bread perhaps?
Renton: No, thank you. I will proceed directly
to the IV of hard drugs, please.
Renton: Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career.
Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television. Choose washing machines,
cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health,
low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments.
Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching
fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning.
Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit crushing game
shows, stuffing junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end
of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an
embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourself.
Choose a future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like
that?
When
Harry Met Sally (1989)
Harry: Had my dream again
where I'm making love, and the Olympic judges are watching. I'd nailed
the compulsaries, so this is it, the finals. I got a 9.8 from the Canadians,
a perfect 10 from the Americans, and my mother, disguised as an East German
judge, gave me a 5.6. Must have been the dismount.
Sally: I am not your consolation prize, Harry.
Harry: I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle in your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts. I love that after I spend day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.
Harry: You were going to be a gymnast.
Sally: A journalist.
Harry: Right, that's what I said.
Sally: Well, if you must know, it was because he was very jealous, and I had these days of the week underpants.
Harry: Ehhhh! I'm sorry. I need the judges ruling on this. "Days of the weeks underpants"?
Sally: Yes. They had the days of the week on them, and I thought they were sort of funny. And then one day Sheldon says to me, "You never wear Sunday." It was all suspicious. Where was Sunday? Where had I left Sunday? And I told him, and he didn't believe me.
Harry: What?
Sally: They don't make Sunday.
Harry: Why not?
Sally: Because of God.
Jess: Marriages don't break up on account of infidelity. It's just a symptom that something else is wrong.
Harry: Oh really? Well, that "symptom" is fucking my wife.
Marie: All I'm saying is that somewhere out there is the man you are supposed to marry. And if you don't get him first, somebody else will, and you'll have to spend the rest of your life knowing that somebody else is married to your husband.
Harry: Right now everything is great, everyone is happy, everyone is in love and that is wonderful! But you gotta know that sooner or later you're gonna be screaming at each other about who's gonna get this dish. This eight dollar dish will cost you a thousand dollars in phone calls to the legal firm of That's Mine, This Is Yours.
Sally: (discussing orgasms) Most women at one time or another have faked it.
Harry: Well, they haven't faked it with me.
Sally: How do you know?
Harry: Because I know.
Sally: Oh. Right. Thats right. I forgot. Youre a man.
Harry: What was that supposed to mean?
Sally: Nothing. Its just that all men are sure it never happened to them and all women at one time or other have done it so you do the math.
Jess: (over a game of Pictionary)
"Baby talk"? That's not a saying!
Harry: Oh, but "baby fish
mouth" is sweeping the nation?
Sally: Its amazing. You look
like a normal person but actually you are the angel of death.
Ever
After (1998)
Leonardo da Vinci: You cannot leave everything
to Fate, boy. She's got a lot to do. Sometimes you must give her a hand.
Danielle: (after realizing she had just been throwing
stones at the prince) Forgive me your highness, I did not see you.
Prince Henry: Your aim would suggest otherwise.
Paulette: The only throne I want her sitting on is the one I have to clean everyday!
Prince Henry: I feel as if my skin is the only thing keeping me from going everywhere at once.
Danielle: You, sir, are supposed to be charming.
Prince Henry: And we, princess, are supposed to
live happily ever after.
Danielle: Says who?
Prince Henry: You know, I don't know.
Danielle: (thinking of her love of the prince) A
bird may love a fish, signore, but where will they live?
Leonardo da Vinci: Then I shall have to make you
wings.
Prince Henry: You told me it was a matter of life
or death.
Leonardo DaVinci: A woman always is.
Grand Dame: And though Cinderella and her prince did live happily ever after, the point, gentleman, is that they lived.
The
Truth About Cats & Dogs (1996)
Cosmetics Saleslady: We also
have this new face cream which neutralizes the free radicals that attack
the skin. Let me ask you: what's your skin regime?
Dr. Abby Barnes: My regime?
The regime from which the radicals are trying to get free? Are we selling
face cream or staging a coup?
Abby: Did you call me?
Roy: What?
Abby: I heard dumb bitch.
I assumed you were talking to me.
Roy: I was talking to her
(gestures
towards Noelle)
Abby: (to Noelle) Your name
is dumb bitch TOO? No wonder! I keep getting all of your mail! You know,
we could be related. There are a lot of us dumb bitches here in LA.
Abby: If you are trapped in Biosphere 3, whom would you want to bring: Time's Woman of the Year or Playboy's Playmate of the Year?
Noelle: What's wrong, Abby?
Abby: Nothing that a rooftop
and an AK-47 won't take care of.
Noelle: You and I combined make the perfect woman.
Abby: No. You and I combined make the perfect political prisoner. What we really do well is act self-righteous and starve.
Noelle: Let's get shit-faced and see what happens.
Noelle: What is this? Is this cat hair?
Abby: I'm shedding. I'm extremely nervous.
The
Sixth Sense (1999)
Cole: We were supposed to draw a picture, anything we wanted. I drew a man who got hurt in the neck by another man with a screwdriver.
Malcolm: You saw that on TV, Cole?
Cole: Everyone got upset. They had a meeting. Mom started crying. I don't draw like that any more.
Malcolm: How do you draw now?
Cole Sear: Draw... people smiling, dogs running, rainbows. They don't have meetings about rainbows.
Jerry
Maguire (1997)
Dorothy: I've had three lovers
in the past four years, and they all ran a distant second to a good book
and a warm bath.
Jerry: This is going to change
everything.
Dorothy: Promise?
Dicky: If this [points to heart] is empty, this [points to head] doesn't matter.
Jerry: Do you want this jacket? I don't need it. I'm cloaked in failure!
Laurel: Dorothy, this guy would go home with a gardening tool if it showed interest.
Dicky: I have failed as much as I have succeeded. But I love my life. I love my wife. And I wish you my kind of success.
Avery: There is a sensitivity thing that some people have. I don't have it. I don't cry at movies, I don't gush over babies, I don't buy Christmas presents 5 months early, and I DON'T tell the guy who just ruined both our lives, "Oh, poor baby." But I do love you.
Ray: What's wrong, Mommy?
Dorothy: First class, that's
what's wrong. It used to be a better meal, now it's a better life.
Dorothy: On the surface, everything seems fine. I've got this great guy. And he loves my kid. And he sure does like me a lot. And I can't live like that. It's not the way I'm built.
Jerry: What do you want from
me? My soul?
Dorothy: Why not? I deserve
that much.
Now
and Then (1995)
[Explaining sex to her daughter]
Chrissy's mom: All women have a garden, and a garden needs a big hose to
water it...or a small hose...as long as it works.
Samantha: As we grow older, it becomes difficult to just believe. It's not that we don't want to, but too much has happened that we just can't.
Crazy Pete: Things will happen in your life that you can't stop. But that's no reason to shut out the world.
Teeny: Have you ever been
french kissed?
Chrissy: Are you kidding?
I don't want to get pregnant!
Empire
Records (1995)
Eddie: (About Harvard) It's
an alternate universe man, completely unlike the one we know, filled with
big blonde guys who eat ivy and row boats.
Gina: (Wearing nothing but a MusicTown apron) Welcome to MusicTown, may I service you?
Gina: Lucas, what are you doing in here?
Lucas: My life has reached its pinnacle. Joe is letting me close the store tonight.
Warren: (looking at the coins attached to the ground) Who glued these quarters down?
A.J.: I did.
Warren: What the hell for, man?
A.J.: I don't feel that I need to explain my art to you, Warren.
AJ: (to Deb after she walks out of the bathroom bald) You did have hair when you went in there, right?
Debra: Yeah. It's still in the sink, if you want to glue it.
A.J.: What's with you? Yesterday you were normal and today you're like the Chinese guy from the Karate Kid. What's with you today?
Lucas: What's with today today?
Joe: Where's the money, Lucas?
Lucas: Joe, the money is gone.
Joe: I know it's GONE, where's it gone to?
Lucas: Atlantic City.
Joe: Atlantic City?
Lucas: Yeah.
Joe: What's it DOING in Atlantic City?
Lucas: Recirculating!
Mark: Hey, Lucas. I've decided I'm going to start a band.
Lucas: The first thing you need is a name. Then you'll know what kind of band you've got.
Mark: Right, right. I was thinking about, um, Marc. How does that sound?
Lucas: Is that with a C or with a K?
Mark: Well my name is with a K, so I was thinking my band's name could be with a C. That way it's kind of that psychedelic, you know, trip thing.
Lucas: Always play with their minds.
A.J.: Mark, listening to this
crap is guaranteed to make you sterile.
Mark: [under his breath]
Maybe I want to be sterile.
Warren: Why don't you take
these CDs and shove them up your ass?
Lucas: Becasue it would hurt
a lot, Warren.
Lucas: Mitchell is the man, Joe.
Joe: Yeah, and the man calls
all the shots.
Lucas: Damn the man.
Gina: Attention Rex Manning fans! To your left you will notice a shoplifter being chased by night manager Lucas, this young man will be caught, deep fried in hot oil and served to our first hundred customers. Just another tasty treat from the gang at Empire Records!
Stand
by Me (1986)
Teddy: This is my age. I'm
in the prime of my youth and I'll only be young once.
Chris: Yeah, but you're gonna
be stupid for the rest of your life.
Teddy: Jesus H. bald-headed Christ!
Gordie: Walking talking Jesus!
Gordie: Fuck writing, I don't
want to be a writer. It's stupid, it's a stupid waste of time.
Chris: Now that's your dad
talking.
Gordie: Bullshit.
Chris: Bull true.
Notting
Hill (1999)
Spike: There's something
wrong with this yogurt.
William: It's mayonnaise.
Spike: Oh.
William Thacker: You like
Chagall?
Anna Scott: I do. It feels
like how being in love should be. Floating through a dark blue sky.
William Thacker: With a goat
playing the violin.
Anna Scott: Yes - happiness
wouldn't be happiness without a violin-playing goat.
Bella: William just turned
down Anna Scott.
Spike: You daft prick.
William: I enjoyed the movie
very much. I was just wondering, did you ever consider having more horses
in it?
Anna: Well, we would have
liked to. But it was difficult, obviously, being set in outer space.
Keziah: No thanks, I'm a fruitarian.
Max: I didn't realize that.
William: And, ahm: what exactly
is a fruitarian?
Keziah: We believe that fruits
and vegetables have feeling so we think cooking is cruel. We only eat things
that have actually fallen off a tree or bush - that are, in fact, dead
already.
William: Right. Right. Interesting
stuff. So, these carrots...
Keziah: Have been murdered,
yes.
The
X-Files: Fight the Future (1998)
Mulder: If we fail to anticipate
the unforeseen or expect the unexpected in a universe of infinite possibilites,
we may find ourselves at the mercy of anyone or anything that cannot be
programmed, categorized or easily referenced.
Mulder: You told me you had
answers!
Kurzweil: Yes, but I don't
have them all.
Scully: Are you drunk, Mulder?
Mulder: I was until about
20 minutes ago.
Scully: Was that before or
after you decided to come here?
Well-Manicured Man: Survival is the ultimate ideology.
Mulder: (to Scully) But you saved me. As difficult and frustrating as it's been sometimes, your God-damned strict rationalism and science have saved me a thousand times over. You kept me honest. You made me a whole person. I owe you everything, and you owe me nothing. I don't know if I want to do this alone. I don't even know if I can.
Strughold: He is but one man. One man alone cannot fight the future.
The
Truman Show (1998)
Truman: The early bird gathers
no moss! The rolling stone catches the worm!
Christof: We accept the reality of the world with which we are presented.
Sylvia: Look at what you've
done to him!
Christof: I have given Truman
the chance to lead a normal life. The world, the place you live in, is
the sick place.
Network Executive: For God's
sake, Chris! The whole world is watching. We can't let him die in front
of a live audience!
Christof: He was born in
front of a live audience.
Christof: Listen to me, Truman.
You can leave if you want, I won't try to stop you. But you won't survive
out there. You don't know what to do, where to go.
Truman: I have a map.
Christof: Truman, I've watched
you your whole life, I saw you taking your first step, your first word,
your first kiss. I know you better than you know yourself. You are not
going to walk out that door.
Truman: You never had a camera
inside my head.
Sleepy
Hollow (1999)
Ichabod Crane: Villiany wears
many masks, none of which are more dangerous than virtue.
Lady Van Tassel: Watch your heads!
Katrina: I have shed my tears for Brom... and yet my heart is not broken. Do you think me wicked?
Ichabod Crane: No... but perhaps there is a little bit of witch in you, Katrina.
Katrina: Why do you say that?
Ichabod Crane: Because you have bewitched me.
Ichabod Crane: Truth is appearance, but appearance isn't always truth.
Braveheart
(1995)
William Wallace: In the year
of our lord thirteen fourteen, patriots of Scotland, starving and outnumbered,
charged the fields of Bannockburn. They fought like warrior poets. They
fought like Scotsmen. And won their freedom.
Princess Isabelle: A baby, not of your line, grows in my belly.
William Wallace's father: Your heart is free. Have the courage to follow it.
Edward the Longshanks: Whom do I send? Not my gentle son. The mere sight of him would only encourage an enemy to take over the whole country.
English Commander: I hope you washed your ass this morning, it's about to be kissed by a king.
Wallace: Why do you help me?
Isabelle: Because of the
way you are looking at me now.
Hamish: Is your father a ghost,
or do you converse with the Almighty?
Stephen: In order to find
his equal, an Irishman is forced to talk to God. (Looks towards sky) Yes,
Father. (To William and his men) The Almighty says don't change the subject;
just answer the fucking question.
Stephen : God says he can get me out of this mess, but he's pretty sure you're fucked.
Nicolette : Englishmen don't know what a tongue is for.
Wallace: Lower your flags and march straight back to England, stopping at every home to beg forgiveness for a hundred years of theft, rape, and murder. Do this and your men shall live. Do it not, and every one of you will die today.
Clerks
(1994)
Randal: I don't appreciate
your ruse, ma'am.
Silent Bob: You know, there's a million fine looking women in the world, dude. But they don't all bring you lasagna at work. Most of 'em just cheat on you.
Clueless
(1995)
Cher: Searching for a boy
in high school is like searching for meaning in a Pauly Shore movie.
Cher: I want to do something
for humanity.
Josh: How about sterilization?
Cher: Do you prefer "fashion victim" or "ensembly challenged"?
Mel: What the hell is that?
(referring to Cher's white, tight, and short outfit)
Cher: A dress.
Mel: Says who?
Cher: Calvin Klein.
Independence
Day (1997)
David Levinson: They're using our own satellites
against us.
Capt. Steve Hiller: I don't think they traveled 90 million lightyears just to start a fight.
Steve: Was that an earthquake?
Jazmine: Not even a four-pointer. Go back to sleep.
Steve: What are you doing here?
Dylan: I'm shooting aliens.
President Tom Whitmore: The question of whether we are alone in this universe has finally been answered.
SETI Employee: (talking on the phone) Yes, I love the X-files too, but I just haven't had the time to watch.
Jimmy: You scared, man?
Steve: No. You?
Jimmy: No... Hold me!
Steve: Just a little anxious to get up there and whoop E.T.'s ass.
Jimmy: As the good Reverend would say... "Why we
on this particular mission, I don't know But I do know that the Black Knights
will emerge victorious once again.
Steve: Amen, Reverend.
Steve: Oh no, you did not shoot that green shit at me.
Boy: The world's going to end tommorow. You don't want to die a virgin, do you?
Whitmore: What is it you want us to do?
Alien: Die.
Steve: (after crash landing in the desert and finding the alien ship is as bad a shape as his own) That's right! That what you get! Look at you, ship all banged up! Who's the man?! (opens ship and punches out the alien) Welcome to Earth. (later, sits on top of the alien ship with his cigar) Now that's what I call a close encounter.
Julius Levinson: (to David) It's Air Force One, for crying out loud, and you still get sick! Look at me. We could go back and forth, up and down, side to side... (David, truly sick now, leaves to throw up) What did I say?
Julius: "All you need is love." (thinks) John Lennon. Good man, shot in the back, very sad.
Julius: Area 51! Right? Area 51! You knew then and
you did nothing!
Whitmore: Sir, regardless of what you may have
read in the tabloids...There is no area 51. There's no recovered spaceship.
Nimzicki: Uh, Mr. President, that's not entirely
accurate.
David: What?! Which part?
Whitmore: (looking at amazement at Area 51) Why
the hell wasn't I told about this?
Nimzicki: Two words, Mr. President: Plausible deniability.
Whitmore: I don't understand. Where do we get the
funding for this kind of thing?
Julius: What, you don't think they really spend
$2million for a hammer, $3million for a toilet, do you?
Dr. Oaken: As you can imagine, they don't let us
out much.
Whitmore: I can understand that.
Oaken: This is the vault...or, as some of us have come to call it, the freak show.
General William Grey: They knew exactly where and
how to hit us. We're looking at the worldwide destruction of every major
city in the next 36 hours.
Whitmore: We're being exterminated.
Steve: (speaking to the unconscious alien he is dragging behind him in his parachute) You know this was supposed to be my weekend off but NO, you gotta come here acting up with your dreadlocks sticking out of my parachute. (looks behind him) And what's that smell?!?! (kicks the carcass) I could've been at a barbecue!
Marilyn Whitmore: Is that your son?
Jazmine: Yup, that's my angel.
Marilyn: Was his father stationed here?
Jazmine: He wasn't his father, but I was kinda
hoping he wanted the job.
Marilyn: What do you do for a living?
Jazmine: I'm a dancer.
Marilyn: Ah! Ballet?
Jazmine: No. Exotic.
Marilyn: Oh. Sorry.
Jazmine: Don't be. I'm not. Besides my baby's worth
it. Dylan, come here. I want you to meet the First Lady. Say hi.
Marilyn: I didn't know that you'd recognized me.
Jazmine: I didn't want to say nothing. I voted
for the other guy.
Whitmore: (after ordering the nuclear missile launch) May our children forgive us.
Connie Spano: (to ex-husband, David) Haven't you
ever wanted to be part of something special?
David: I was part of something special!
David: (after the missile launch failed) If we screw this planet up enough, then maybe they won't want it anymore.
Julis: Get off this freezing concrete floor before
you catch cold...
David: Genius! My dad. A total genius.
David: (to Steve) You really think you can fly that
thing?
Steve: You really think you can do all that bullshit
you just said?
The cute Major Mitchell: These jets are very different than the F18's you are about to fly. You have to forgive the expression but you're about to get a "crash course" in modern avionics.
Connie: (on David) Now he gets ambitious.
Whitmore: "Mankind," that word should have new meaning for all of us. We can't be consumed by our petty differences any longer. Perhaps it's fate that today is Independence Day. You will once again be fighting for your freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution, but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live, to survive....Today we celebrate our Independence Day.
Steve: Wait, wait, hold on, we got to find some
cigars.
Julius: Here, take these, my last two.
Steve: You are a lifesaver. (turns to leave) Almost
put a hex on the entire thing.
Russell: (after nearly launching a missile while still on the runway) I picked a hell of a day to quit drinking.
Steve: (getting ready to start the ship) Let's rock
and roll! (moves ship into reverse, so that it bangs into the wall) Oops.
David: Oops? What's that mean? What's this---
Steve: Some jerk... (switches the post-it directions,
which are in reverse) Let's try that again.
David: Yeah, let's. Without the "oops." (points
to the open exit) That way.
Steve: (on the spaceship) I have got to get me one of these!
David: (after Steve flips around in space) Whoa,
what're you doing?
Steve: Just trying to get a feel for the ol' girl.
David: (getting airsick again) No, leave her alone.
(The spaceship is all of a sudden out of Steve's
control and Steve begins to panic)
David: No, no wait. I was counting on this. They
are bringing us in.
Steve: Yeah? And when were you gonna tell me?
David: Oops.
Steve: We have to work on our communication.
Nimzicki: (to Julius) I'm not Jewish.
Julius: Nobody's perfect.
Steve: I ain't heard no fat lady.
David: Forget the fat lady; you're obsessed with
the fat lady.
Steve: (after a very narrow escape out of the mother
ship) Elvis has left the building!
David: (doing an Elvis impression) Whoa, thank
you very much. I love you, man.
Russell: Alright you alien assholes, in the words of my generation, "up yours!"
Russell: Hello boys! I'm baaaaaack!
Mitchell: (on Russell) What your father did was
very brave. You should be proud.
Miguel: I am.
Steve: What do you think?
David: Checkmate.
David: (on the cigar in his mouth) And I always thought that things like this would kill me.
(Steve and David finally reveal their identities
to the alien manning the mother ship)
David: Hey, look at us! Take a look at the earthlings!
Goodbye!
Steve: Nothing but love for ya, nothing but love.
(to David) Do you think they know what's happening?
David: Not a clue. Good night!
Steve: (to Dylan) Didn't I promise you fireworks?
While
You Were Sleeping (1995)
Elsie: I like Mass better
in Latin. It's nicer when you don't know what they're saying.
Lucy: Have you ever fallen in love with someone you haven't even talked to? Have you ever been so alone you spend the night confusing a man in a coma?
Lucy: You're sick.
Jerry: Oh, I'm sick? You're
cheating on a vegetable.
Joy
Luck Club ()
Lindo (age 15, before seeing
her husband for the first time) I have prayed to the gods many days for
you, so that you were not too ugly or too old. (She sees her husband and
realizes he is a boy.) I must have prayed too hard.
Lena: (to husband) Why do you have to be so goddamn fair?!
Lindo: I told them the matchmaker
had made the wrong match on purpose, just for money.
Huang Tai Tai: Matchmaker,
how could you? How could you?
Matchmaker: Well, mistakes
happen in heaven.
June: I'm just sorry that
you got stuck with such a loser, that I've always been so disappointing.
Suyuan: What you mean disappoint?
Piano?
June: Everything! My grades,
my job, not getting married, everything you expected of me.
Suyuan: Not expect anything!
Never expect! Only hope! Only hoping best for you. That's not wrong, to
hope.
June: No? Well, it hurts,
because every time you hoped for something I couldn't deliver, it hurt.
It hurt me, Mommy. And no matter what you hope for, I'll never be more
than what I am. And you never see that, what I really am.
Ted: You know, I always knew
you were a, a jerk, but shit, this is the first time in my life I am ashamed
of you.
Mrs. Jordan: How dare you
use that language! I think you better apologize right now.
Ted: I'm sorry, Mom, you
made a fuckin' asshole out of yourself in front of the woman I love.
Rose: I like being tragic, Ma. I learned it from you.
Ying Ying: All around this house I see the signs. My daughter looks but she does not see. This is a house that will break into pieces. It's not too late. All my pains, my regrets, I will gather them together. My daughter will hear me calling, even though I've said no words. She will climb the stairs to find me. She will be scared because at first her eyes will see nothing. She will feel in her heart this place where she hides her fears. She will know I am waiting like a tiger in the trees, now ready to leap out and cut her spirit loose.
Waverly: Mom, why don't you
like Rich?
Lindo: Is Rich you afraid
I not like? If I don't like your Rich, I act polite, say nothing, let him
have big cancer, let my daughter be a widow. I like Rich, of course I do.
To allow him to marry such a daughter!
Waverly: You don't know,
you don't know the power you have over me. One word from you, one look,
and I'm four years old again, crying myself to sleep, because nothing I
do can ever, ever please you.
Lindo: (pauses) Now...now,
you make me happy.
Suyuan: (to June) That bad crab, only you tried to take it. Everybody else want best quality. You, you're thinking different. Waverly took best quality crab, you took worst, because you have best quality heart. You have style no one can teach. Must be born this way.
Ying Ying: Do you know what
you want? I mean, from him?
Lena: Respect. Tenderness.
Ying Ying: Then tell him
now. And leave this lopsided house. Do not come back until he give you
those things, with both hands open...Losing him does not matter. It is
you who will be found--and cherished.
Rose: You're not taking my
house, you're not taking my daughter, you're not taking any part of me,
because you don't know who I am. I died sixty years ago. I ate opium and
I died for my daughter's sake. Now get out of my house!
