One of my favourite movie scenes ever. Awesome.
And whether the blood be highland, lowland or no.
And whether the skin be black or white as the snow.

Woody Allen (I forget which movie) trying to be cool and profound to impress some chick:

"I like the rain. It washes the memories from the sidewalks of life..."

(at which point, he tries to rest on his elbow pensively to show her how soulful he is. Trouble is, he rests his elbow on a record turntable which promptly spins and dumps him on the floor :D )

Vincent: And you know what they call a... a... a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Paris?
Jules: They don't call it a Quarter Pounder with cheese?
Vincent: No man, they got the metric system. They wouldn't know what the f*** a Quarter Pounder is.
Jules: Then what do they call it?
Vincent: They call it a Royale with cheese.
Jules: A Royale with cheese. What do they call a Big Mac?
Vincent: Well, a Big Mac's a Big Mac, but they call it le Big-Mac.
Jules: Le Big-Mac. Ha ha ha ha. What do they call a Whopper?
Vincent: I dunno, I didn't go into Burger King.

Tuco: "If you need to shoot, shoot! Don't talk!"

(from memory, so maybe a paraphrase)
At the end of it all, I want to be told "Well done". I don't want to _be_ well done!

I.D.10-t wrote:ASH:"KLAATU... VERATA... N--... necktie."
Also from Ash: You're leading two things, Jack and sh*t, and Jack just left town.
Not exactly a quote, but when Ash has to cut off his hand in Evil Dead II, he puts a bucket over it and weighs the bucket down with a hardcover copy of "A Farewell to Arms."

Woody Allen in Sleeper: I'm what you would call a teleological existential atheist. I believe that there's an intelligence to the universe, with the exception of certain parts of New Jersey.

From Buckaroo Banzai:

Buckaroo: Don't be mean; 'cause remember, no matter where you go, there you are
General: I am scared. I'm barely holding my fudge, right now.
John Whorfin: History is made at night. Character is what you are in the dark.

Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.

"I'm sure, with counseling, you'll come to forgive me."
--Mr. Incredible

"Here's lookin' at you, kid."
--Rick (from the most quotable movie ever!)

"I suppose surrounding them's out."
--John Rambo (III)

Hamish: "Where are you goin'?"
Wallace: "To pick a fight."
Hamish: "What should we do?"
Wallace: "Oh, just be yourselves."
--Braveheart (my favorite quote is Wallace's proposal; too long to include here, so I'll just include "Well, that's a bit sudden, but alright.")

"Move the THING! And that OTHER thing!"
--the Princess Bride

Captain Love: "The lady and I were trying to dance."
Allejandro: "You were trying. She was succeeding...A shameless joke at your expense. I'm sure it won't be the last."
--The Mask of Zorro

"Dumber than a bag of hammers!"
--O Brother, Where art Thou?

Enough for now!

Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.

Nah, mate. Doesn't come close to the original radio series, the books, or even the TV show. :wink:

[Martha has changed into an embarrassingly tight and revealing outfit]

"Why Martha! Your Sunday chapel dress! "

George, from Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

" You take the trouble to construct a civilization, to build a society based on the principles of... of principle. You make government and art and realize that they are, must be, both the same. You bring things to the saddest of all points, to the point where there is something to lose. Then, all at once, through all the music, through all the sensible sounds of men building, attempting, comes the Dies Irae. And what is it? What does the trumpet sound? Up yours. "

George, from Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf.

“It’s not easy having a good time. Even smiling makes my face ache.”

Frank, from Rocky Horror Picture Show


Cole Younger and Sam Starr are about to fight over Belle]
Cole Younger: What does the winner get?
Belle Starr: Nothin' both of you ain't already had.
Cole Younger: Don't hardly seem worth it.
Belle Starr: It ain't. You're both crazy, but you do keep me amused. I am having a *real* good time.

from The Long Riders

Betty: If there's one thing I've learned, it's learning things never taught me nuthin'. And books is the worst.

Yellowbeard: I'll kill anyone who get's in the way of me killing anyone.

Dan: Father! We thought you were dead.
Yellowbeard: Us Yellowbeards are never more dangerous than when we're dead. How are you gettin' on pirating?
Dan: Um, well...
Yellowbeard: How many men have you killed so far?
Dan: One. Two, I think.
Yellowbeard: You think? You'll never kill anyone if you go around thinkin'.

from Yellowbeard

Susan: A real woman could stop you from drinking.
Arthur: It'd have to be a real BIG woman.

Arthur: You're a hooker? Jesus, I forgot! I just thought I was doing GREAT with you!

Hobson: Normally, someone would have to go to a bowling alley to meet someone of your stature.

Arthur: Not all of us who drink are poets. Some of us drink because we're not poets.

from Arthur
"Let low-country intruder approach a cove
And eyes as gray as icicle fangs measure stranger
For size, honesty, and intent."
