From Lawrence of Arabia:
Lawrence lights a match, then runs his fingers slowly up from the bottom until he extinguishes the flame with his fingers, and then just smiles.
A fellow lieutenant tries the same trick, lights the match and then howls with pain.
Potter: OWWWW...it damn well hurts.
Lawrence: Certainly it hurts.
Potter: Well, what's the trick then?
Lawrence: The trick, William Potter, is not MINDING that it hurts.
I used to be Max Bialystock, KING of BROADWAY, six shows running at once. Look at me now... LOOK AT ME NOW... I'm wearing a cardboard belt.
- Bialystock: This is it. This is the mother lode. Real gold, not fools gold. Touch it. Kiss it.
- Leo Bloom: "Springtime for Hitler: A Gay Romp with Adolph and Eva at Bergtesgarden". WOW !!! This show won't run a week!
- Bialystock: A week? Are you kidding? This show has got to close... on page 4.
"You want me to kiss her, eh?"
"Oh, youth is wasted on the wrong people."
"Hey, come back mister! I'll show you kissing that'll put hair back on your head!"
"So let it be written, so let it be done."
Jack: Whole boxes of material could be missing.
Daniel: No, the Pentagon said this was everything.
Jack: Oh, please. The Pentagon's lost entire countries.
Jack: We have a rule here on Earth. Every kid has got to have a dog. This is a dog. And he's yours.
Bra'tac: Perhaps when the warships of your world attack...
Sam: Ah, ah, excuse me, did you say the ships of our world?
Bra'tac: Surely you have such vessels?
Daniel: Well, we have a number of... of... shuttles.
Jack: ... Shuttles.
Bra'tac: These shuttles, they are a formidable craft?
Jack: Oh yeah, yeah. Bad day.
Carter: Are you crazy? It's a paradise.
O'Neill: Yeah, sure, have an apple. What could happen?
O'Neill: It's "O'Neill," with two L's. There's another Colonel O'Neil with only one L, and he has no sense of humor at all.
Maybourne: Striking an officer is a quick way to a court martial.
O'Neill: I'm not gonna hit you, Maybourne. I'm gonna shoot you.
O'Neill: You know that "we come in peace" business? Bite me.
Teal'c: I have read of a place where humans do battle in a ring of Jell-o.
O'Neill: Call Daniel.
Her'ak: No matter what you have endured, you have never experienced the likes of what Anubis is capable of.
O'Neill: You ended that sentence with a preposition. Bastard.
Good, but it's not a movie. How about this one:
"Missed it by that much."
They did make a movie of that show, so it qualifies.
Its recorded on film! And its the "American Film Institute", not the "American Movie Institute"!
(just funnin' you a bit) :)
I think the quote goes something like...
"The gaudier the patter...(the cheaper the hood)."
My favorite line goes something like...
"You can have these (handing Sydney Greenstreet two pistols), a blind newsie took 'em off him."
Thank you for clarifying that. I LOVE that movie. (I just don't have it all memorized.)
Just a question, why the name "Watery Tart" instead of "Moistened Bink"?
Actually, I believe it's "moistened bint", bint being a lot less nice than tart.
Flick Lives!
He had Yellow eyes!
Me neither. *looks over shoulder, whispers*
You've got to download that portion of the script to your 'ard drive!

SlowBoat is correct. I found a pic approximatin' a watery tart for my profile page. I believe that my computer is set to filter out the pictures of the latter.

Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses?
No, but it's so hard to find a good place to work that line into conversation.
"It's twue!"
"'UUUPER DUPER!"
"I suggest you put on a tie!"
"He vas my....BOYFRIEND!"
"Nice hopping."
"Put ze candle BECK!"
"You take the blonde, and I'll take the one in the toiban!"
"Stay close to the candles. The stairway can be.... treacherous."
"SEDA-GIVE??"
"Ovaltine?"
"Could be worse....could be raining."
"There wolf. There castle"
I could go on....but then I'd have to go watch it again.
;o)
I'm just here for the gruel.

Wow, almost as quoted as Shakespeare!
