Some truly great films (and memorable lines)represented here. AFI did a good job.
Not sure if it made the list, but my favorite line from Gone with the Wind went something like this:
I always thought a few lashes with a buggy whip would have benefitted you immensely.
"I'd horsewhip you if I had a horse" - Groucho Marx in "Horsefeathers"
My favorite from GWTW was "you need kissing and often, and by someone who knows how"
I beg to differ. The list omitted so many of the Godfather classic quotes, it's not worthy of discussion. Here are just a few of the ones they missed, from Godfathers I and II:
1) Leave the gun, take the cannolis.
2) It's not personal, Sonny. It's strictly business.
3) Luca Brazi sleeps with the fishes.
4) I know it was you, Fredo. You broke my heart, you broke my heart.
5) I spent my whole life trying not to be careless. Women and children can be careless but not men.
6) I don't feel I have to wipe everyone out, Tom. Just my enemies.
7) If anything in this life is certain, if history has taught us anything, it is that you can kill anyone.
8) In my home! In my bedroom where my wife sleeps! Where my children come and play with their toys. In my home.
9) In Sicily, women are more dangerous than shotguns. [In Italian]
10) That's my family, Kay. It's not me.
11) Do you spend time with your family? Good. Because a man that doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man.
12) Tattaglia's a pimp. He never could've out-fought Santino. But I didn't know until this day that it was Barzini all along.
13) What have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully? If you'd come to me in friendship, then this scum that ruined your daughter would be suffering this very day. And if by chance an honest man like yourself should make enemies, then they would become my enemies. And then they will fear you.
14) Look how they massacred my boy.
15) Never let anyone outside the family know what you're thinking.
16) We're both part of the same hypocrisy, Senator. But never think it applies to my family.
This is just a few quotes off the top of my head. (This AFI piece really ticked me off.)
