Decided to make a thread on movie quotations we all know and love. Please put the actor or character's name and the name of the film next to the movie quotation. I'll start us off.


"An obese man. A disgusting man who could barely stand up. A who if you saw him on the street, you'd point him out to your friends so that you can join them in mocking him. A man who if you saw him while you were eating, you wouldn't be able to finish your meal."

-Keven Spacey, Se7en

Seven gave me nightmares. Really grim stuff.

Peter Sellers as Col. Mandrake in Dr. Strangelove:

Yes, well of course you can, Jack, of course you can. You can! I'm a religious man myself, you know, Jack. I believe in all that sort of thing, and... I'm hoping, you know, Jack...You dropped your gun, Jack. Yes... here, no, Jack. Let me take that for you. I'll take that for you, Jack. And, ah, you know what I'm hoping, Jack? I'm hoping you're going to give me the code, boy. That's what I'm hoping. And, ah...oh, you're going have a little wash and brush up, are you? What a good idea. Always did wonders for a man, that, Jack. A little wash and brush up. Water on the back of the neck...makes you feel marvelous. And that's what we need, Jack! Water on the back of the neck and the code. Now, ... now supposing I play a little guessing game with you, Jack, boy. I'll try and guess... I'll try and guess what the code is,...

I almost have the whole movie memorized. That screenplay is hilarious. There had to have been a ton of outtakes from people cracking up.

I don't know what to say really. Three minutes to the biggest battle of our professional lives all comes down to today. Either we heal as a team or we are going to crumble. Inch by inch, play by play till we're finished.
We are in hell right now, gentlemen, believe me. And we can stay here
and get the shit kicked out of us or we can fight our way back into the light. We can climb out of hell. One inch, at a time.

Now I can't do it for you. I'm too old. I look around and I see these young faces and I think, I mean, I made every wrong choice a middle age man could make. I uh....I pissed away all my money, believe it or not. I chased off anyone who has ever loved me. And lately, I can't even stand the face I see in the mirror.

You know when you get old in life, things get taken from you. That's, that's part of life. But, you only learn that when you start losing stuff. You find out that life is just a game of inches. So is football. Because in either game, life or football, the margin for error is so small. I mean
one half step too late or to early you don't quite make it. One half second too slow or too fast and you don't quite catch it. The inches we need are everywhere around us. They are in ever break of the game every minute, every second.

On this team, we fight for that inch. On this team, we tear ourselves, and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We CLAW with our finger nails for that inch. Cause we know when we add up all those inches
that's going to make the fucking difference between WINNING and LOSING. Between LIVING and DYING.

I'll tell you this, in any fight it is the guy who is willing to die who is going to win that inch. And I know if I am going to have any life anymore it is because, I am still willing to fight, and die for that inch. Because that is what LIVING is. The six inches in front of your face.

Now I can't make you do it. You gotta look at the guy next to you. Look into his eyes. Now I think you are going to see a guy who will go that inch with you. You are going to see a guy who will sacrifice himself for this team because he knows when it comes down to it, you are gonna do the same thing for him.

That's a team, gentlemen. And either we heal now, as a team, or we will die as individuals. That's football guys. That's all it is. Now, whattaya gonna do?

Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome:
Master: These our witness, Aunty. Us suffer bad. Want justice. We want Thunderdome!
Aunty Entity: You know the law: Two men enter, one man leaves.
Master: This Blaster! Twenty men enter, only him leave!
Aunty Entity: Then it's your choice. Thunderdome.

and

Aunty Entity: You think I don't know the law? Wasn't it me who wrote it? And I say that this man has broken the law. Right or wrong, we had a deal. And the law says: bust a deal and face the wheel!

Hi Fidelity:
Barry's Customer: Hi, do you have the song "I Just Called To Say I Love You?" It's for my daughter's birthday.
Barry: Yeah we have it.
Barry's Customer: Great, Great, can I have it?
Barry: No, no, you can't! (proceeds to go totally ballistic on the guy)

Jacob's Ladder:
Louis: Eckhart saw Hell too. He said: The only thing that burns in Hell is the part of you that won't let go of life, your memories, your attachments. They burn them all away. But they're not punishing you, he said. They're freeing your soul. So, if you're frightened of dying and... and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the earth.

Gladiator:
Maximus: My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.

and

Maximus: At my signal, unleash hell.

Kill Bill vol 2:
The Bride: Are you calling me a superhero?
Bill: I'm calling you a killer. A natural born killer. You always have been, and you always will be. Moving to El Paso, working in a used record store, goin' to the movies with Tommy, clipping coupons. That's you, trying to disguise yourself as a worker bee That's you tryin' to blend in with the hive. But you're not a worker bee. You're a renegade killer bee. And no matter how much beer you drank or barbecue you ate or how fat your ass got, nothing in the world would ever change that.

Alive:
Nando: Do you know what it is that we've lived this long the way we have? Seventy days? It's impossible. It's impossible and we did it. I'm proud to be a man on a day like this. Alive. That I lived to see it, and see it in such a place. Take it in. I love you, man. It's beautiful. It's God. And it'll carry us over every stone, I swear.

As Good as it Gets:
Melvin Udall: Where do they teach you to talk like this? In some Panama City "Sailor wanna hump-hump" bar, or is it getaway day and your last shot at his whiskey? Sell crazy someplace else, we're all stocked up here.

and

Melvin Udall: I'm drowning here, and you're describing the water!

Blade Runner:
Batty: C'mon, Deckard. I'm right here, but you've gotta shoot straight.

and

Leon: Do you make up these questions, Mr. Holden? Or do they write 'em down for you?
Holden: The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over but it can't. Not without your help. But you're not helping.
Leon: WHAT DO YOU MEAN, I'M NOT HELPING?
Holden: I mean you're not helping! Why is that, Leon?

and

Leon: Let me tell you about my mother. (blam!)

and

Batty: I've done... questionable things.
Tyrell: Also extraordinary things. Revel in your time.
Batty: Nothing the god of biomechanics wouldn't let you in heaven for.
Batty: I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

Egbert Sousé (http://imdb.com/name/nm0001211/): Ten cents a share. Telephone sold for five cents a share. How would you like something better for ten cents a share? If five gets ya ten, ten'll get ya twenty. A beautiful home in the country, upstairs and down. Beer flowing through the estate over your grandmother's paisley shawl.
Og Oggilby (http://imdb.com/name/nm0840316/): Beer?
Egbert Sousé (http://imdb.com/name/nm0001211/): Beer! Fishing in the stream that runs under the aboreal dell. A man comes up from the bar, dumps $3,500 in your lap for every nickel invested. Says to you, "Sign here on the dotted line." And then disappears in the waving fields of alfalfa.


Prologue: "This is the story of two men who met in a banana republic. One of them never did anything dishonest in his life except for one crazy minute. The other never did anything honest in his life except for one crazy minute. They both had to get out of the country."


Motorcycle Cop (http://imdb.com/name/nm0423564/): I'd like to stick my whole head in your mouth and let you suck out my eyeballs!


Clemenza: Leave the gun. Take the cannolis.


Mr Deltoid (http://imdb.com/name/nm0606368/): I've just come from the hospital; your victim has died, little Alex! You're a murderer! (barely containing his glee)

Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man


Harley Davidson: It's better to be dead and cool, than alive and uncool.


Marlboro: Guns were made to be shot not thrown, Harley.


Marlboro: You know, that gun costs about two dollars every time you fire it. That's two bucks a bullet.

Harley Davidson: Well how many'd I hit?

Marlboro: You spent twelve dollars and didn't hit a goddamn thing. I nailed one and it cost about four and a quarter.

Rutger Hauer wrote those lines not the screen writers. It's poetic, and I think it's the best line in the movie. I can't imagine what banal thing would have been in it's place.

That movie was where Ahnold got on my radar. I didn't see any of the Conan movies before.

I like where he sticks a pipe in through the guys chest.... " hey, let off some steam." :D

What did he say when he chops the guys arm off and then hits him over the head with it? That was pretty funny too.

And the very young Allyssa Milano before she banged every guy in the Western US.

"With a little bit of luck, his life would be ruined forever" Johnny Depp, Fear & Loathing in LV


rest of that one is good too "Always thinking that just behind some narrow door in all of his favorite bars, men in red woolen shirts are getting incredible kicks from things he'll never know."


I kinda like that movie/book.

"There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die."

"Who are these people? These faces? Where did they come from? They look like caricatures of used car dealers from Dallas, and sweet Jesus, there are a hell of a lot of them at 4:30 on a Sunday morning. Still humping the American dream."

they are perfect quotes from that awesome movie. Come to think of it, you could just about quote the whole script.

"Don't worry, just admiring the shape of your skull"

The Toxic Avenger

Leroy: All right everybody, drop your tacos or I'll blow your brains out.

(in a bad chinee accent) "Aww Hawhawhawhawhaw...No tickee, no washee"
I don't know why, that that bit used to absolutely crack me up. I think it is the Toxic Avenger's expression when saying it. My mates had an old betamax copy of it, and that bit was a little fuzzy from the number of times I'd rewound and replayed it.

Commando is almost the perfect shoot 'em up movie. It's so easy to watch.

"What did you do with Sully?"
"I let him go" LOL

From Paul Bettany in Gangster #1
Eddy: "What's that?"
Gangster: "That? That's my favourite Axe, Eddy"

"I've got a machete on the back seat, my choppers on the passenger seat, and this old Beretta down the front of my trousers....and I'm fucking 'appy"

And from a big, fat, insane Marlon Brando cloaked in shadow in his cave like some psychotic Zarathustra in Apocalypse Now
"I watched a snail crawl along the edge of a straight razor. That's my dream. That's my nightmare. Crawling, slithering, along the edge of a straight razor, and surviving"

A convincingly aggrieved Humongous in Mad Max 2
"I am gravely disappointed. Again you have made me unleash my dogs of war. Look at what remains of your gallant scouts. Why? Because you're selfish. You hoard your gasoline. You do not listen to reason. Now my prisoners say you plan to take the gasoline out of the wasteland. You sent them out this morning to find a vehicle. A rig big enough to haul that fat tank of gas. What a puny plan. Look around you. This is the valley of death. The Humongous will not be defied"

Sicilian scene from True Romance

Coccotti (Walken): Sicilians are great liars. The best in the world. I'm a Sicilian. And my old man was the world heavyweight champion of Sicilian liars. And from growin' up with him I learned the pantomime. Now there are seventeen different things a guy can do when he lies to give him away. A guy has seventeen pantomimes. A woman's got twenty, but a guy's got seventeen. And if you know 'em like ya know your own face, they beat lie detectors to hell. What we got here is a little game of show and tell. You don't wanna show me nothin'. But you're tellin' me everything. Now I know you know where they are. So tell me, before I do some damage you won't walk away from.
Cliff (Hopper): Could I have one of those Chesterfields now?
Coccotti: Sure.
Cliff: Got a match? Oh, don't bother. I got one. So you're a Sicilian, huh?
Coccotti: Uh-huh.
Cliff: You know I read a lot. Especially things that have to do with history. I find that shit fascinating. In fact, I don't know if you know this or not, Sicilians were spawned by niggers.
Coccotti: Come again?
Cliff: It's a fact. Sicilians have nigger blood pumpin' through their hearts. If you don't believe me, look it up. You see, hundreds and hundreds of years ago the Moors conquered Sicily. And Moors are niggers. Way back then, Sicilians were like the wops in northern Italy. Blond hair, blue eyes. But, once the Moors moved in there, they changed the whole country. They did so much fuckin' with the Sicilian women, they changed the blood-line for ever, from blond hair and blue eyes to black hair and dark skin. I find it absolutely amazing to think that to this day, hundreds of years later, Sicilians still carry that nigger gene. I'm just quotin' history. It's a fact. It's written. Your ancestors were niggers. Your great, great, great, great, great-grandmother was fucked by a nigger, and had a half-nigger kid. That is a fact. Now tell me, am I lyin'?

Martins (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001072/): Have you ever seen any of your victims?
Harry Lime (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000080/): You know, I never feel comfortable on these sort of things. Victims? Don't be melodramatic. Tell me. Would you really feel any pity if one of those dots stopped moving forever? If I offered you twenty thousand pounds for every dot that stopped, would you really, old man, tell me to keep my money, or would you calculate how many dots you could afford to spare? Free of income tax, old man. Free of income tax - the only way you can save money nowadays.

****************************
Harry Lime (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000080/): Don't be so gloomy. After all it's not that awful. Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock. So long Holly.

"Parting a soup is not a miracle, Bruce. It's a magic trick. A single mom who's working two jobs, and still finds time to take her son to soccer practice, that's a miracle. A teenager who says "no" to drugs and "yes" to an education, that's a miracle. People want me to do everything for them. What they don't realize is *they* have the power. You want to see a miracle, son? Be the miracle. " - God, to Bruce in Bruce Almighty

Goodfellas:


Henry Hill: You're a pistol, you're really funny. You're really funny.

Tommy DeVito: What do you mean I'm funny?

Henry Hill: It's funny, you know. It's a good story, it's funny, you're a funny guy.
[laughs]

Tommy DeVito: what do you mean, you mean the way I talk? What?

Henry Hill: It's just, you know. You're just funny, it's... funny, the way you tell the story and everything.

Tommy DeVito: [it becomes quiet] Funny how? What's funny about it?

Anthony Stabile: Tommy no, You got it all wrong.

Tommy DeVito: Oh, oh, Anthony. He's a big boy, he knows what he said. What did ya say? Funny how?

Henry Hill: Jus...

Tommy DeVito: What?

Henry Hill: Just... ya know... you're funny.

Tommy DeVito: You mean, let me understand this cause, ya know maybe it's me, I'm a little fucked up maybe, but I'm funny how, I mean funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to fuckin' amuse you? What do you mean funny, funny how? How am I funny?

Henry Hill: Just... you know, how you tell the story, what?

Tommy DeVito: No, no, I don't know, you said it. How do I know? You said I'm funny. How the fuck am I funny, what the fuck is so funny about me? Tell me, tell me what's funny!

Henry Hill: [long pause] Get the fuck out of here, Tommy!

Tommy DeVito: [everyone laughs] Ya motherfucker! I almost had him, I almost had him. Ya stuttering prick ya. Frankie, was he shaking? I wonder about you sometimes, Henry. You may fold under questioning.
My only gripe is they put this too early in the movie. But yeah, they don't write them like that any more. Every piece of dialogue has to be approved by a committee, then shown to a test audience, then re-edited, and so on, 'til it's completely dead. :disagree:

Goodfellas is a great movie. I always liked it as a counterpoint to dignified elderly Sicilian men in tailored suits meeting in bank conference rooms to agree that only negroes should deal drugs. Someone once pointed out to me that Mario Puzo has never met or interviewed an actual Mafia member.
