~Favorite Movie Quotes ~
(...But if you threaten to extend your violence, this Earth of yours will be reduced to a burned-out cinder. Your choice is simple. Join us and live in peace, or pursue your present course and face obliteration. We shall be waiting for your answer. The decision rests with you.)
(It started - for me, it started - last Thursday, in response to an urgent message from my nurse, I hurried home from a medical convention Id been attending. At first glance, everything looked the same. It wasnt. Something evil had taken possession of the town...)(Help! Wait! Stop. Stop and listen to me!...These people whore coming after me are not human!...Look, you fools. Youre in danger. Cant you see? Theyre after you. Theyre after all of us. Our wives, our children, everyone. Theyre here already. YOURE NEXT!)
(Its sad when a mother has to speak the words that condemn her own son. I couldnt allow them to believe that I would commit murder. Theyll put him away now, as I should have, years ago. He was always bad and in the end, he intended to tell them I killed those girls and that man. As if I could do anything except just sit and stare, like one of his stuffed birds. Oh, they know I cant even move a finger and I wont. Ill just sit here and be quiet, just in case they do suspect me. Theyre probably watching me. Well, let them. Let them see what kind of a person I am. Im not even gonna swat that fly. I hope they are watching. Theyll see. Theyll see and theyll know and theyll say, Why, she wouldnt even harm a fly.)
(...So we formed ourselves into tight groups...the idea was, the shark comes to the nearest man and he starts poundin and hollerin and screamin. Sometimes the shark go away. Sometimes he wouldnt go away. Sometimes that shark, he looks right into ya, right into your eyes. Yknow, the thing about a shark, hes got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a dolls eyes. When he comes after ya, he doesnt seem to be livin until he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white, and then - aww, then you hear that terrible high-pitch screamin, the ocean turns red, and in spite of all the poundin and the hollerin, they all come in and rip ya to pieces...)
(As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster. To me, being a gangster was better than being President of the United States...Even before I first wandered into the cabstand for an after-school job, I knew I wanted to be a part of them. It was there that I knew that I belonged. To me, it meant being somebody in a neighborhood that was full of nobodies. They werent like anybody else. I mean, they did whatever they wanted. They double-parked in front of a hydrant and nobody ever gave them a ticket. In the summer when they played cards all night, nobody ever called the cops)
(So that was Mrs. Lundegaard on the floor in there. And I guess that was your accomplice in the wood chipper. And those three people in Brainerd. And for what? For a little bit of money. Theres more to life than a little money, you know. Dont you know that? And here ya are, and its a beautiful day. Well, I just dont understand it.)
(Look! The moonlight shows us for what we really are! We are not among the living so we cannot die, but neither are we dead! For too long Ive been parched of thirst and unable to quench it. Too long Ive been starving to death and havent died. I feel nothing. Not the wind on my face nor the spray of the sea, nor the warmth of a womans flesh. You best start believing in ghost stories, Miss Turner. Youre in one!)

Ilsa: How nice, you remembered. But of course, that was the day the Germans marched into Paris.
Rick: Not an easy day to forget.
Ilsa: No.
Rick: I remember every detail. The Germans wore gray, you wore blue.
Ilsa: Play it again Sam
Rick: Here’s looking at you kid.
Rick: Louie, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
Capt. Renaud: Round up the usual suspects.

Hombre (from Elmore Leonard's novella) has more quotable lines than any other film, bar none. I could list fifty but here's just a few....
"I'd like to buy you dinner"
"A lot of guys would do that"
Just as soon make it breakfast"
-------
"What are you doing here Frank?"
"Going bad Jessie"
------------
"They all heard you call me a dirty name"
"I didn't say anything."
"And if they didn't, I did"
--------
"One day you will learn, White people stick together"
"They'd better"
--------
"You'd eat dog, fight over the bones too"
--------
"Try not to puke, you might have to lie in it a long time"
---------
"Looks like you did good and we did better"
--------
"Can I have my horse, I want to get out of here"
"Why, you scared of the dark?"
"Hell, I don't like what I see around here in the daytime"
---------
"If he moves shoot him once. If he tries to leave shoot him twice. If he tries to take the water empty your gun"
--------
"Hey Hombre! You have put a hole in ME!"
--------
"Cicero Grimes, meet John Russell"
Every line a gem but most importantly, every line moves the story and defines each character better. That is what words are for.
