List your favorites and lets see what tickles the fancy of Freepers who enjoy a Good (or Bad) Movie!

"Here's Johnny!" -- The Shining

[Skywalk]

Get busy living or get busy dying. That's goddamn right. For the second time in my life, I'm guilty of committing a crime. Parole violation. Course, I doubt they're going to throw up any road blocks for that. Not for an old crook like me. I find I'm so excited I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it's the excitement only a free man can feel. A free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope.

"Frye?... Frye?... Frye?..."

"Pardon my French but Cameron is so tight, that if you stuck a lump of coal up his a**, in six months you'd get diamonds!"

This place? This place happens to be my only world. I grew up in that house up there. I happen to have had a very happy childhood. My mother and I were more than happy.

From The Lion in Winter":

Henry II, King of England: Now see here, boy...
Philip II, King of France: I am a king--I am no man's "boy"!
Henry II, King of England: A king? Because you put your ass on purple cushions?!

Henry II, King of England: The sky is pocked with stars. What eyes the wise men must have had to see one more among so many.

Prince Richard: We could tangle spiders in the webs you weave.

Henry II, King of England: I found out the way your mind works and the kind of man you are. I know your plans and expectations--you've burbled every bit of strategy you've got. I know exactly what you will do, and exactly what you won't, and I've told you exactly nothing. To these aged eyes, boy, that's what winning looks like!

Henry II, King of England: I'm villifying you for God's sake--pay attention!

Eleanor of Aquitaine: I could peel you like a pear and God himself would call it justice!

Eleanor of Aquitaine: What would you have me do? Give out? Give up? Give in?
Henry II, King of England: Give me a little peace.
Eleanor of Aquitaine: A little? Why so modest? How about eternal peace? Now there's a thought.

Eleanor of Aquitaine: [to her jewelry] I'd hang you from the nipples, but you'd shock the children.

Eleanor of Aquitaine: I made Louis take me on Crusade. I dressed my women as Amazons and we rode bare-breasted halfway to Damascus. Louis had a seizure and I damn near died of windburn... but the troops were dazzled.

Eleanor of Aquitaine: Henry's bed is Henry's province, he may people it with sheep if he wishes. Which upon occasion he has done.

Prince Richard: So! The royal corkscrew finds ME twisted?

Prince John: A knife! He's got a knife!
Eleanor of Aquitaine: Of course he has a knife, he always has a knife, we all have knives! It's 1183 and we're all barbarians!

Prince Geoffrey: I know. You know I know. I know you know I know. We know Henry knows, and Henry knows we know it. [smiles] We're a knowledgeable family.

Prince Richard: I never heard a corpse complain of how it got so cold.

Henry II, King of England: Women! I could have conquered all of Europe, but I had women in my life.

From "1776"

John Dickinson: Mr. Jefferson, Mr. Lee, Mr. Hopkins, Dr. Franklin, why have you joined this... incendiary little man, this BOSTON radical? This demagouge, this MADMAN?
John Adams: Are you calling me a madman, you, you... you FRIBBLE!
Ben Franklin: Easy John.
John Adams: You cool, cosiderate men. You hang to the rear on every issue so that if we should go under, you'll still remain afloat!
John Dickinson: Are you calling me a coward?
John Adams: Yes... coward!
John Dickinson: Madman!
John Adams: Landlord!
John Dickinson: LAWYER!

[Praying to God in song]
John Adams: A little flood, a simple famine, plagues of locusts everywhere, or a cataclysmic earhtquake, I'd accept with some despair. But no, you send us Congress! Good God, sir, was that fair?

Benjamin Franklin: Calling me an Englishman is like callling an ox a bull: he's grateful for the honor, but he'd rather have restored what's rightfully his.
[Laughter from Congress]
John Dickinson: When did you first notice they were missing, sir?
[More laughter]

John Adams: I have come to the conclusion that one useless man is called a disgrace; that two are called a law firm, and that three or more become a Congress!!

John Adams: At a stage in life when other men prosper, I'm reduced to living in Philadelphia.

John Adams: God help us.
Ben Franklin: Oh, he will, John. He will.

Ben Franklin: Revolutions come into this world like bastard children. Half improvised and half compromised.

John Adams: This is a revolution, dammit! We're going to have to offend SOMEbody!

[As they stand on the sidewalk below Jefferson's apartment]
John Adams: This is positively indecent!
Dr. Benjamin Franklin: Oh, John, they're young and they're in love.
John Adams: Not them, Franklin. Us! Standing out here, waiting for them to... I mean, what will people think?
Dr. Benjamin Franklin: Don't worry, John. The history books will clean it up.

From "Casablanca," some very worthwhile lines that I haven't seen quoted yet:

Annina: Monsieur Rick, what kind of a man is Captain Renault?
Rick: Oh, he's just like any other man, only more so.

Rick Blaine: I remember Paris perfectly. The Germans wore grey, you wore blue.

[About Rick.]
Major Strasser: You give him credit for too much cleverness. My impression was that he's just another blundering American.
Captain Renault: We musn't underestimate American blundering. I was with them when they blundered into Berlin in 1918.

Yvonne: Where were you last night?
Rick Blaine: That's so long ago, I don't remember.
Yvonne: Will I see you tonight?
Rick Blaine: I never make plans that far ahead.

Victor Laszlo: Welcome back to the fight. This time I know our side will win.

[golas]

Shhhh! Be vewy vewy quiet! I'm hunting wabbits! (Heh-heh-heh-heh-heh!)

[ambrose]

No, no, no. That's enough, he's perfect. I want his records sent to me. This viscous young hoodlum will be transformed out of all recognition.
