Best Lines Ever

[Keroin]

Was watching "Jaws" today and remembered how much I loved that infamous line:


"We're gonna need a bigger boat."



Feel free to share favourite lines from movies.

Eddie Valentine; "Whaddaya see in that guy, anyway?"
Jessica Rabbit; "He makes me laugh."

 

[Chiara_searches]

Nearly all the Fight Club quotes in this blog are favorites, but especially these two:

Tyler Durden: "It’s only after we’ve lost everything that we’re free to do anything."

Narrator: "This is your life, and it’s ending one minute at a time."

 

[DarkBee]

From The matrix:

"Stop trying to hit me and hit me."

 

[ImOnIt]

Is it kosher if I suck on that?

Wait, what?

 

[rekane]

from The Fisher King:

Video Customer: [Jack has tossed an annoying customer a videotape] "Ordinary Peepholes"?
Jack Lucas: It's a big titty, spread cheeky kinda thing.

Ah yes, the cry to heaven of the bourgeoisie. You'll look at those quotes a different way if you ever wind up jobless and nearly on the streets...

It's so easy to claim you aren't your paycheck when you have one.

It's fun to throw away every pair of khakis you own-- just don't end up trouserless.

I think a lot of people aren't going to feel so fannish about those quotes in a couple months.

Sorry, not to harsh your mellow or nothing.

To Kill a Mockingbird is my absolute favorite movie and book. I think of this line often:

"Neighbors bring food with death, and flowers with sickness, and little things in between. Boo was our neighbor. He gave us two soap dolls, a broken watch and chain, a knife, and our lives."


Another fave movie, Mr. Roberts "Captain, it is I, Ensign Pulver, and I just threw your stinkin' palm tree overboard! Now what's all this crud about no movie tonight?"

For something completly different: "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

"Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!"

You aren't harshing my mellow...but you may be jumping to conclusions about me again because of the implications of your statements (i.e. how I read your statements starting with the "You'll look at these quotes a different way....", albeit that may not be how you intended your comments).

I lost my job in 2009, laid off because of the economic times. My home was robbed twice in 2009, although the second time there was not much to take. I was divorced in 2009. I was the major breadwinner and so, while legally fair, there is a part of me that feels I was damaged the most, financially and materialistically, by the divorce. Just prior to the divorce a community asset business failed in late 2008, mostly due to a flaky partner, aka my then brother-in-law. These material losses triggered more materialistic losses.

I picked those quotes because I have lost nearly everything in the last two years. I picked those quotes because I have been nearly homeless. I picked those quotes because I don't have a paycheck still. I picked the quotes because I live daily with the fear that I will soon be sleeping in my car.

I am, however, lucky enough that friends and family have helped me hold these fears at bay. I'm lucky enough that if I don't let pride get in the way, I wouldn't be sleeping in my car long because enough people care about me to not let that go on. Because I am blessed in so many ways despite these losses, I try to live my life still looking for the positive. Yet I think it's important people learn some life lessons even from innocuous sources like Fight Club. If more people learned some of these lessons, perhaps they wouldn't fall as far as I have fallen.

Just because I've had to learn lessons the harsh way (or harsh for me) doesn't mean I want everyone else to suffer the actual losses. Maybe posting those kinds of things will make someone, even one person, stop and think.

And despite it all, I'm still gonna pick myself up and kick ass, but I'm gonna remember these lessons, too.

"Are you cussing with me?"

Fantastic Mr. Fox

quote, in context:
Badger: In summation, I think you just got to not do it, man. That's all.
Mr. Fox: I understand what you're saying, and your comments are valuable, but I'm gonna ignore your advice.
Badger: The cuss you are.
Mr. Fox: The cuss am I? Are you cussing with me?
Badger: No, you cussing with me?
Mr. Fox: Don't cussing point at me!
Badger: If you're gonna cuss with somebody, you're not gonna cuss with me, you little cuss!
Mr. Fox: You're not gonna cuss with me!
[Both start snarling at each other, and then settle down]
Mr. Fox: Just buy the tree.
Badger: Okay.

Cussing with Mr. Fox

I like my women the way I like whiskey, 18 years old and mixed up in coke.

And the obligatory Fight Club quote:

I haven't been fucked like that since grade school.

 

[JamieJ424]

"Don't trust Whitey. Lord loves a working man, don't trust Whitey. ... If you catch it, see a doctor and get rid of it."

Say three hail Mary's, eat a cracker as fast as you can and try to whistle and all will be forgiven my child.

Say, any of you boys smithies? Or, if not smithies per se, were you otherwise trained in the metallurgic arts before straitened circumstances forced you into a life of aimless wanderin'?

Ulysses Everett McGill: Well, I don't want Fop, goddamn it! I'm a Dapper Dan man!
Pomade Vendor: Watch your language, young feller, this is a public market. Now if you want Dapper Dan, I can order it for you, have it in a couple of weeks.
Ulysses Everett McGill: Well, ain't this place a geographical oddity. Two weeks from everywhere!

Well, ain't it a small world, spiritually speaking. Pete and Delmar just been baptized and saved. I guess I'm the only one that remains unaffiliated.
