Do you have a favorite movie quote? And why do you like it? Here are some of mine.
1. From Silence of The Lambs - Hannibal Lecter: "You know what you look like to me, with your good bag and your cheap shoes? You look like a rube. A well scrubbed, hustling rube with a little taste. Good nutrition's given you some length of bone, but you're not more than one generation from poor white trash, are you, Agent Starling? And that accent you've tried so desperately to shed: pure West Virginia. What is your father, dear? Is he a coal miner? Does he of the lamp? You know how quickly the boys found you... all those tedious sticky fumblings in the back seats of cars... while you could only dream of getting out... getting anywhere... getting all the way to the F-B-I-." I love this because he knows EXACTLY who she is and completely psychoanalyzes her to the letter.
2. From Step Brothers - Dale accusing Brennan of playing his drum set (and he was and he did nasty things to it...haha) Dale Doback: "Why are you so sweaty?" Brennan Huff: "I was watching Cops."
3. From The Blues Brothers - Elwood: "It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses." Jake: "Hit it."
Well off the top of my head (I did cheat and look up the quotes so I wouldn't scr*w em up):
1. From Se7en - Mills and Somerset: S: I just don't think I can continue to live in a place that embraces and nurtures apathy as if it was virtue. M: You're no different. You're no better. S: I didn't say I was different or better. I'm not. Hell, I sympathize; I sympathize completely. Apathy is the solution. I mean, it's easier to lose yourself in drugs than it is to cope with life. It's easier to steal what you want than it is to earn it. It's easier to beat a child than it is to raise it. Hell, love costs: it takes effort and work. Cause it's true!
2. From Alien - Ash and Lambert: A: You still don't understand what you're dealing with, do you? A perfect organism. Its structural perfection is matched only by its hostility. L: You admire it. A: I admire its purity. A survivor...unclouded by conscience, remorse, and all delusions of morality. Cause it's creepy!
3. From 2001 - HAL: H: Dave, my mind is going. Cause it's HAL!

From my favorite movie of all time, Titanic... there were SO many memorable quotes... But this one really hits home to me the most:
Jack: "I figure life’s a gift, and I don’t intend on wasting it. You never know what hand you’re gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you, to make each day count.”
1. Steve Martin in The JERK: "Well I'm gonna go then. And I don't need any of this. I don't need this stuff, and I don't need you. I don't need anything except this. [picks up an ashtray] And that's it and that's the only thing I need, is this. I don't need this or this. Just this ashtray. And this paddle game, the ashtray and the paddle game and that's all I need. And this remote control. The ashtray, the paddle game, and the remote control, and that's all I need. And these matches. The ashtray, and these matches, and the remote control and the paddle ball. And this lamp. The ashtray, this paddle game and the remote control and the lamp and that's all I need. And that's all I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one - I need this. The paddle game, and the chair, and the remote control, and the matches, for sure. And this. And that's all I need. The ashtray, the remote control, the paddle game, this magazine and the chair. [walking outside] And I don't need one other thing, except my dog. [dog growls] I don't need my dog.
2. Here are two from one of my all time favorite movies: Jimmy Stewart[George Bailey to Mr. Potter, after he tries to hire George] I don't need 24 hours. I don't have to talk to anybody. I know right now, and the answer's no. No! Doggone it! You sit around here and you spin your little webs and you think the whole world revolves around you and your money! Well, it doesn't, Mr. Potter! In the, in the whole vast configuration of things, I'd say you were nothing but a scurvy little spider! And... [turning to his aide] And that goes for you, too!
Written on The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, the book Clarence leaves for George Bailey "Dear George: Remember no man is a failure who has friends. P.S. Thanks for the wings! Love, Clarence."

Taken
- I don't know who you are. i don't know what you want. If it is a ransom you hope, you say that i have no cash, but what i have is special skills that i have acquired over a long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for you. If you let my daughter now, it will stop there. If you do not release it, I will look for you, I will find you and kill you. - ... Good luck.
Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci): What do you mean I'm funny? Henry Hill (Ray Liotta): 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(Frank Adonis): 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 f***ed 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 f***in' 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 f**k am I funny, what the f**k is so funny about me? Tell me, tell me what's funny!

I wonder about you sometimes, Henry. You may fold under questioning.
Harry Callahan: I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?
