What is your Favorite Film Quote?

"Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. ******** it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy **** we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off." - Tyler Durden, Fight Club


"The rug really tied the room together", The Dude, The Big Lebowski


"You are so money and you don't even know it" - Trent, Swingers
 
"Two, four, niner, five, six, seven... "
"I can't hear you, you're trailing off and did I catch a niner in there? Were you calling from a walkie-talkie?"

"Can't rain all the time."
 
My number one quote is from the movie 'Chinatown':
"Come on, Lou, you're in charge. Make a decision."
Everytime I encounter anybody beating around the bush I think of this quote.
 
"A sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie but I wouldn't know coz I wouldn't eat the filthy motherf***er!"
 
"There's only two things I hate in this world. People who are intolerant of other people's cultures ... and the Dutch." - Nigel Powers - Goldmember
 
as a teacher I frequently use the following lines from DV
"I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further"
and my favorite
"Perhaps you think you’re being treated unfairly?"

5 Wendy? Darling? Light, of my life. I'm not gonna hurt ya. You didn't let me finish my sentence. I said, I'm not gonna hurt ya. I'm just going to bash your brains in
 
"I dunno what the hell's in there, but it's weird and p*ssed off, whatever it is. "

Clark from "The Thing"

This is my favorite line, too. When I first heard it, I laughed my a** off because it applied so well to all the other films involving a creature that I had seen before.
 
Hudson: Let's just bug out and call it even, okay? What are we talking about this for?

Ripley: I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit....it's the only way to be sure.

Hudson: ****ing A!
 
A line I love to say every once in awhile at work that gets people to TOTALLY forget about what they were discussing prior is:

"Not entirely stable? I'm so GLAD you're here to tell us these things. Chewie, take the professor back and plug him into the hyperdrive!" :D
 
Rorschach: "None of you seem to understand. I'm not locked in here with you. You're locked in here with ME!"

--From Watchmen
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
"They have got you looking so hard for any flaw, that after awhile, that's all you see."

--Vincent (Ethan Hawke), from Gattaca
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I am NOT the man with whom to {frak}!"

--Frank Elgyn (Michael Wincott), from Alien Resurrection
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
James Bond (Daniel Craig): [To Le Chiffre, laughing - after being struck five times with a knotted rope] "Now the whole world's gonna know that you died scratching my balls!"

--From Casino Royale
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Conan: "Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!"

--Conan's version of a prayer to his god, from Conan the Barbarian
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Get that weak {crap} off my track!"

--Speed (Emile Hirsch), to his rival during the climactic race sequence, in Speed Racer (2008)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
"'Speak the oath'... 'cuz everybody knows the oath...
Holds power ring up to face of power battery
I, Hal Jordan, do solemnly swear...
to pledge allegiance...
to a lantern...
that I got from a dying, purple alien...
in a swamp..."

--Hal Jordan's (Ryan Reynolds) first attempt to speak the Green Lantern Corps Oath, from Green Lantern (2011)

:cool
 
maybe not favorite, but stuff that randomly gets spouted on well timed occasions:

"Negative, Ghost Rider, the pattern is full" - Top Gun

"Are you crying? There's no crying. There's no crying in baseball" - League of Their Own

"Bad dates" - ROTLA


This one from Doctor Who I find rather amusing:

'Oh no, of course, you mostly went hands-free didn't you? It was like, "Hey, I'm the Doctor, I can save the universe using a kettle and some string! And look at me, I'm wearing a vegetable"'

I'm sure there are tons of others, but those are at the top of my brain at the moment.
