Favourite Film Quotes

Remove all ads!

People can post their favourite quotes from films. As a bit of a game, let's not give away the names of the films the quotes are from so people can try and guess them.

I'll kick off...

[character surveying selection of guns on table] "Heh, an uzi? I'm not from south central Los-fackin'-Angeles. I didn't come here to shoot 20 black 10 year olds in a fackin' drive-by; I want a normal gun for a normal person."

 

That's a good idea. I can't tell which movie you're quoting though.

Here is mine: "I may be bad... but I feel good!"

 

Barmy's is Ralph Fiennes from 'In Bruges'. hah, classic line.


One of my faves that springs to mind right now is:

"You wanna know how I did it? This is how I did it Anton. I never saved anything for the swim back."

 

Gattica (great movie)

That's what I love about these high school girls, man. I get older, they stay the same age

 

My favourites are:

"And I will show you where the Iron Crosses grow"

"I eat concertina wire and piss napalm and I can put a round through a flea's ass at 200 meters"

"You have bled with Wallace, now bleed with me"

 

Brig. Gen. Frank Savage: ... Gately, as far as I'm concerned, you're yellow. A traitor to yourself, to this group, to the uniform you wear. It would be the easiest course for me to transfer you out, to saddle some unsuspecting guy with a deadbeat. Maybe you think that's what you're gonna get out of this, a free ride in some combat unit. But I'm not gonna pass the buck. I'm gonna keep you right here. I hate a man like you so much that I'm gonna get your head down in the mud and tramp on it. I'm gonna make you wish you'd never been born.

Lt. Col. Ben R. Gately: If that's all, sir....

Brig. Gen. Frank Savage: I'm just getting started. You're gonna stay right here and get a belly full of flying. You're gonna make every mission. You're not air exec anymore. You're just an airplane commander. And I want you to paint this name on the nose of your ship: Leper Colony. Because in it you're gonna get every deadbeat in the outfit. Every man with a penchant for head colds. If there's a bombardier who can't hit his plate with his fork, you get him. If there's a navigator who can't find the men's room, you get him. Because you rate him.

 

Help! Help! I'm being repressed!

 

Well we've got Braveheart & Holy Grail in there.

Guy#1 You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways. You don't wanna know about it, believe me.

Guy #2: Yeah, but...

Guy #1 Hell, I can get you a toe by 3 o'clock this afternoon... with nail polish. These fúcking amateurs...

 

Big Lebowski.

"The Dude abides. I don't know about you, but I take comfort in that. It's good knowin' he's out there ... The Dude ... takin' 'er easy for all us sinners."

 

T2's is Twelve O'Clock High, I believe.

(Um... can't really say I have any definite favourites, but here goes...)


"I even heard that the demon living here in Rashômon fled in fear of the ferocity of man."

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

"0.68 seconds sir. For an android, that is nearly an eternity."

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

"What we do in life echoes in eternity."

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

"Live forever, apes!" - this it the mangled form I love, the proper one would be "Come on, you apes? Wanna live forever?"

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

"Gentlemen, I s*it you not."

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

Lots of quotes from the following film, but:

Spock: I am well-versed in the classics, Doctor.
McCoy: Then how come you don't know "Row, Row, Row Your Boat?"

Kirk: Yes, Spock?
Spock: Life... is not a dream.
Kirk: Go to sleep, Spock.

Spock: Perhaps "because it is there" is not sufficient reason for climbing a mountain.

 

Lore, one of those is from "Gladiator".

" There's a passage I got memorized. Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you. I been sayin' that **** for years. And if you ever heard it, that meant your ass. I never game much thought to what it meant. I just thought it was a cold-blooded thing to say to a mother****er before I popped a cap in his ass. But I saw some **** this mornin' made me think twice. See, now I'm thinkin': maybe it means you're the evil man. And I'm the righteous man. And Mr. 9mm here, he's the shepherd protecting my righteous ass in the valley of darkness. Or it could mean you're the righteous man and I'm the shepherd and it's the world that's evil and selfish. And I'd like that. But that **** ain't the truth. The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard to be the shepherd."

 

Yours is from Pulp Fiction, Blades

Here's mine:
"Mein Führer! I can walk!"

 

@lore

the apes one is from starship troopers, right?

where is that android one from?

 

Yup.

The android one (in case someone prefers no spoilers):

Spoiler

Star Trek: First Contact, Data's response when asked how long the Borg Queen's offer tempted him

 

African Queen.

Cross of Iron.

 

That's got to be from The Rock.

Mine are...

"Always look on the bright side of life.", I bet some of you can even sing it.

""...has any one committed a crime here? I mean, assault with a deadly color?"

"What we have here is... failure to communicate."

"...some birds aren't meant to be caged."

 

Cara's is from Evil Dead 3.

Here's one:

"Sex is, well...nobody knows... But the saw is family!"

 

"Pucker up, Buttercup!"

"My Name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."

" . . . a wretched hive of scum and villainy."

"Boring conversation anyway, . . . "

"Does your dog bite?" "No." (mangling noises of vicious small dog) "I thought you said your dog does not bite!" "That is not my dog!"

"Oh, the pain!" "Oh, darling, shall I kiss it and make it better?!" "It's not that bad!"

"It's not a tumour!"

"Oh, Captain my Captain."

"It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again!"

"It's my high school number." "When do you graduate?"

"I will break you!"

"Then we're in for a long night because I don't know s***."

"It's the only thing I was ever good at."

More to come . . .

 

a couple from the same movie.. :

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

"With a bit of luck, his life was ruined forever. 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."

"Few people understand the psychology of dealing with a highway traffic cop. A normal speeder will panic and immediately pull over to the side. This is wrong. It arouses contempt in the cop heart. Make the bastard chase you. He will follow."

"It's okay. He's just admiring the shape of your skull. "

"You better take care of me, Lord. If you don't you're gonna have me on your hands."

"There's a uh, big machine in the sky, some kind of, I dunno, electric snake, coming straight at us. "Shoot it." "Not yet, I want to study its habits."

"The possibility of physical and mental collapse is now very real. No sympathy for the Devil, keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride."
