We’re not getting all of these attributed and lot’s of folks won’t know what we’re talking about without context:

Isn't that the point?

If you saw the movie, you'll know.

If you didn't, explaining the context still falls short.

Then I'm wanting to make a different point, too. I posted what I did so that those who don't recognize the great quotes from great movies will have an easier time searching out the great movie to see/hear it for themselves.

I'm also surprised no has posted what may be the most ripped off/imitated quote that there is. This is the way I remember the original, from Treasure of the Sierra Madre:

Bogart to Mexican claiming to be a Federale: "if you're a Federale, where are your badges?"

Reply from Mexican: "Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinking badges!"
