~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!”)

Hi, Kathy. A blessed Holy Thursday to you and yours...

What is your favorite movie quote; I looked thru all your posts on this thread and didn't see it ...?

Being asked my favorite anything always tenses me up, I always have lots of favorites, how to pick one?

Let's see... How about "Face it, girls. I'm older and I have more insurance!" spoken by Kathy Bates (Evelyn) in Fried Green Tomatoes

LOL! I haven’t been to a movie in so long that the quotes I’ve been reading remind me of the very few I’ve seen from so long ago. I’ve seen so few of them

One of my favorites, was “We’re burning daylight”.

A tremendous movie! I thought the recent “Pearl Harbor” with Ben Affleck was lame, and then after watching Tora Tora Tora a few more times, I realized that “Pearl Harbor” is a total and complete piece of crap.

You actually got through more than one viewing of Afflecks "Pearl Harbor"? Geez, you deserve a Medal of Valor. I got halfway through and went looking for my Tora! Tora! Tora! VHS or DVD whichever I could lay my hands on first. :)

Thanks for the welcome...I guess this must be my first time here...I really did not look to see where I was, just was interested in the thread...but thanks..

I just love this movie, and when Christmas comes around, the channel that runs that movie, gets put on, in the family room, and everyone knows not to touch it...I always make sure I get at least 2 quiet hours in, to watch that film in its entirety, but I like having it running all day long, so that I can pop in here and there and just catch glimpses...

Yeah, I probably do know most of the movie by heart...I just love it...
