~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!”)

Some of his best -

I always keep a supply of stimulant handy in case I see a snake, which I also keep handy.

Always carry a flagon of whiskey in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake.

I never drink water because of the disgusting things that fish do in it.

I never drink water; that is the stuff that rusts pipes.

I never drink water. I’m afraid it will become habit-forming.

I cook with wine, sometimes I even add it to the food.

Isn’t that from “Unforgiven”?

Fields is a national treasure : )

I haven't read the entire thread.

In "Legends of the Fall" in the very last scene, when Tristan is fighting with the Wild Bear, and loses the fight.

"One Stab" the Indian narrates slowly.. "It was a good death"..

From the same movie:

Q: "Why do you do it? Why do you defend him?"

A: "Because he walks on the wall. He stands guard over us while we're sleeping and says 'Nobody is going to hurt you. Not tonight. Not on my watch.'"

I don't recall the movie, but here's another one:

Q: "Is it true that God always answers prayers?"

A: "Yes. But sometimes the answer is 'No.'"

WORST: Every line of dialouge between Anakin and Padame in "Revenge of the Sith"

Second the nomination. Whatever hack was responsible for that outrage should be writing fortune cookies or Hallmark Cards.

From "Bruce Almighty":

Bruce (Jim Carrey), after losing Faith, his great love, for being arrogant, says to God (Morgan Freeman): "How do you get someone to love you without violating free will?"

God: "Welcome to my world, son."

[tcostell]

I can't tell you how long I've wondered about that.

Thanks.

From the same movie ... Leonidas, speaking to the traitor Ephialtes, whose shame is consuming him ...

"Ephialtes, may you live forever."

How about the scene where the "god emperor Xerxes" comes to Thermopylae and tells Leonidas that he has done well that day, but that tomorrow, the Persians will unleash their "Immortals." Leonidas replies, "So? From what I've seen, we should have marched our women up here. We'll test your Immortals and see if they live up to their name."

There are too many good lines in that movie to pick only one ...

And of course there's the classic:

Xerxes: "My archers will blot out the sun with their arrows."

Leonidas' captain: "Then we will fight in the shade."

Little Bill Daggett: You'd be William Munny out of Missouri. Killer of women and children. Will Munny: That's right. I've killed women and children. I've killed just about everything that walks or crawled at one time or another. And I'm here to kill you, Little Bill, for what you did to Ned.

Unforgiven.

How about the quote of the queen in 300.

She hands the traitor back his own words he used when he raped her, (as she stabs him in the guts in front of the other politicians he was telling the war was unneeded.)

something like, “I am not your queen, I will not enjoy this...” as she twists the knife and falls to the floor and the bribe money spilling out.
