Favorite all time movie quotations...

So I was reading Prince death threads today and it made me think of one of my favorite movie quotations from Shawshank Redemption: "Get busy living...or get busy dying." The following has to be one of my favorite scenes from a movie... What are your favorite movie quotations?

"Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

The Shawshank Redemption is one of the best movies ever made, and that quote is really pivotal to solidifying Andy's resolve in breaking out, although the 60 days in the shoe before certainly put him on that path.

But this comes to mind:

"eye don’t really care so much what people say about me because it is a reflection of who they r."

Great thread, from this film I love the sequence of the old man coming out of prison, it's just heartwrenching.

A work mate and I are always throwing movie quotes at each other that only we find funny. It must annoy the hell out of others!

Predator is ripe for quoting: What's all this f*cking tie business ... I ain't got time to bleed ... Jeez you got a big pussy

Anchorman is a gold mine to: I am hungovvveeeurh ... go back to your home on whore island ... I'm in a glass case of emotion ...

And we love quoting Pinhead from Hellraiser, he had such a way with words.

Every line from "Animal House"; "Caddyshack"; "This is Spinal Tap"; and most of the lines from "Stripes".

I'm always quoting movies I grew up watching. Sometimes I do it without realising I'm doing it. Arnold Schwarzenegger is probably responsible for half the things I say.

My favourite movie quote is not an Arnie one though. My favourite comes from the Ghostbusters. Specifically, the part where Janine (the receptionist) is interviewing Winston for a place in the Ghostbusters and she asks if he believes in "UFOs, astral projections, mental telepathy, ESP, clairvoyance, spirit photography, telekinetic movement, full trance mediums, the Loch Ness monster and the theory of Atlantis". And his reply is simply "if there's a steady paycheck in it, I'll believe anything you say".

That line was actually responsible for me getting a job once. After my audition the casting director asked what I believed the play was about. I responded with that line and was cast on the spot because he was a big Ghostbusters fan.

"Crom! I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that today, two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom; so grant me this one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to hell with you!"
- Arnold as CONAN



"What I do is I just try to take my hat and I turn it around, and it's like a switch that goes on. And when the switch goes on, I feel like another person, I feel, I don't know, I feel like a... like a truck. Like a machine."
-Sylvester Stallone as "Lincoln Hawk" in OVER THE TOP

Arthur with Dudley Moore and Liza Minelli is one of my favorite movies. There are so, so many favorite moments in there, but one is (Gloria is a hooker he picks up at the beginning of the movie and takes her to an expensive restaurant in the Waldorf-Astoria):


Gloria: My mother died when I was six.

Arthur: [bangs his fist on the table] Son of a bitch! Don't they know what they do to kids?

Gloria: My father raped me when I was twelve.

Arthur: So, you had six relatively good years? I'm sorry. Listen, my father screwed me, too.

I love, love, LOVE that scene and that quote from Conan.

If you want to post Youtube videos, just use this kind of bracket and write youtube, then paste the link, then another bracket but the second bracket should have a slash....like this ;

[youtube]........YOUR YOUTUBE LINK HERE...... [/youtube]

edit. this video´s quality is a bit better than the one above.

What daring! What outrageousness! What insolence! What arrogance! I salute you !

I don't like your kind of people. I don't like to see you come out to this clean country with your oily hair, dressed up in those silk suits, passing yourselves off as decent Americans. I'll do business with you, but the fact is that I despise your masquerade, the dishonest way you pose yourself. Yourself and your whole fucking family.

Like KoolEaze, I think The Godfather, Part II is rich with quotes"

"One thing Pop taught me, was to try to think as the people around you think. Now, on that basis, anything's possible."

________

I also like The Lion In Winter,which for my twocents is one of the finest screenplays ever written:

Geoffrey (the prince): No one ever thinks of crown and mentions Geoff. Why is that?

Henry II (the King): We've made you Duke of Brittany. Is that so little?

Geoffrey: It's not the power I feel deprived of, it's the mention is miss.

-and-

Eleanor of Acquitaine: "In a world where carpenters are resurrected, anything's possible."



-------

Casablanca is full of lines, but this one's my favorite, when Rick is asked by the Nazi major about invasion of NYC:

"Well, there are certain sections of New York, Major, that I wouldn't advise you to invade."

---------------

The Star Wars saga is also highly quotable, but this line from Obi-Wan Kenobi sticks out:

"Luke, I think you'll find that many of the truths we cling to, depend greatly on our own point of view."

"Does Barry Manilow know you raid his wardrobe?" - The Breakfast Club

And this dialog from the opening sequence of Airplane!, as people are arriving at the airport:


Male announcer: The white zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only. There is no stopping in the red zone.

Female announcer: The white zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only. There is no stopping in the red zone.

Male announcer: [later] The red zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only. There is no stopping in the white zone.

Female announcer: No, the white zone is for loading of passengers and there is no stopping in a RED zone.

Male announcer: The red zone has always been for loading and unloading of passengers. There's never stopping in a white zone.

Female announcer: Don't you tell me which zone is for loading, and which zone is for stopping!

Male announcer: Listen, Betty, don't start up with your white zone shit again.

[Later]

Male announcer: There's just no stopping in a white zone.

Female announcer: Oh really, Vernon? Why pretend, we both know perfectly well what this is about. You want me to have an abortion.

Male announcer: It's really the only sensible thing to do if it's done safely. Therapeutically there's no danger involved.
