~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 I’d been attending. At first glance, everything looked the same. It wasn’t. Something evil had taken possession of the town...”)(”Help! Wait! Stop. Stop and listen to me!...These people who’re coming after me are not human!...Look, you fools. You’re in danger. Can’t you see? They’re after you. They’re after all of us. Our wives, our children, everyone. They’re here already. YOU’RE NEXT!”)

(”It’s sad when a mother has to speak the words that condemn her own son. I couldn’t allow them to believe that I would commit murder. They’ll 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 can’t even move a finger and I won’t. I’ll just sit here and be quiet, just in case they do suspect me. They’re probably watching me. Well, let them. Let them see what kind of a person I am. I’m not even gonna swat that fly. I hope they are watching. They’ll see. They’ll see and they’ll know and they’ll say, ‘Why, she wouldn’t 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 wouldn’t go away. Sometimes that shark, he looks right into ya, right into your eyes. Y’know, the thing about a shark, he’s got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eyes. When he comes after ya, he doesn’t 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 weren’t 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. There’s more to life than a little money, you know. Don’t you know that? And here ya are, and it’s a beautiful day. Well, I just don’t 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 I’ve been parched of thirst and unable to quench it. Too long I’ve been starving to death and haven’t died. I feel nothing. Not the wind on my face nor the spray of the sea, nor the warmth of a woman’s flesh. You best start believing in ghost stories, Miss Turner. You’re in one!”)

Sometimes a dull movie is worth watching. I only saw Bar Fly once, when it came out on video. I can still remember smiling and making a mental note to remember that line when I heard it. Another mental note I made was to never let myself become a loser who needs a drink like the two main characters did.

“There’s still some good left in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for!”
Samwise (Sean Austin) in “Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers”

[Aquinasfan]

From "Airplane." The control tower scene.

Robert Stack: "Do you know what it's like to be lying face down in the mud, being kicked in the head with a steel toe boot? No! Of course not. No one does. It never happens."

Later on...

Air traffic controller: "Shouldn't we put the landing strip lights on now?!"

Robert Stack: "No! That's just what they'll be expecting."

From the movie, *Cool Hand Luke* with Paul Newman

Now Luke, You gotta get your mind right.....

You run away once, you get one set of Chains,

You run away twice, you get two set of Chains,

You ain’t gonna run away a third time....

WELCOME TO

(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)

Good morning, Everyone. Good morning

Thank you, fatima, for preparing the Canteen for today's activities.

GOOD GOD! Over 1000 posts first thing in the morning?

I thought about throwing a tantrum and not play this morning since there is no way to get through all 1000-some-odd posts (I am not MA). But, I decided that I had to throw in at least one

"All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us." ---Gandalf to Frodo in Lord of the Rings ...

DC Metroland weather report ~ Today....A mix of clouds and sun with gusty winds. High 53F. Winds WNW at 15 to 25 mph. Winds could occasionally gust over 40 mph. ~ Tonight.....Mostly clear. Cold. Low near 30F. Winds W at 10 to 20 mph.

I'm behind schedule.....AGAIN! So, I have to make my way through the Canteen to see whatz been happening.

But, you stay right where you are. Don't touch that dial. Don't change that channel. Put down that remote. Don't leave the room. Keep your eyes on your monitor. Cause...............I'll be bock!

And, for the rest of you………..

Now remember, the Canteen is

So, come on in and sit for a while. There's always plenty of coffee, pancakes, conversation, silliness, and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM ....
