Ok, this is just about your favouriten quotes. And by that I mean everything, not just starwars quotes (those are welcome as well ofc :D).

 

Just post what your favourite quotes in movies, books, or whatever are.

 

I will give you an example:

 

"I hope there is a special place for you in hell, Arthas!"

"We may never know, Uther. I intend to live forever."

 

You should say where that quote comes from though, this one is from Warcraft.

Some of my favs:

 

The one in my sig, of course. :)

 

Raiders of the Lost Ark:

Salah (has just looked in the Well of Souls and sees the floor crawling with snakes. Turns to Indy): Asps. Very dangerous. You go first.

 

MST3K spoofing Cave Dwellers:

Tom Servo: This old guy has more pauses than a Pinter play!

Old guy: The most important thing is...imagination. The next most important thing....

Crow: Is peanut butter!!!

 

Later in the movie, our fearless hero, Ator and his Chinese side kick Tong, hear some very scary noises coming out of a dark cave. They enter the cave.

Crow: Run with me, friend, _towards_ the danger!

 

Even later in the movie: a bunch of soldiers are running up a stone staircase, which has a very modern looking metal rail.

Tom Servo comments: Use the handrail! Safety on the stairway!

 

In a more serious vein, just about anything by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

The "I Have a Dream" speech, given in Aug 1963 gives me goosebumps.

Mike("The One Armed Man") in Twin Peaks Pilot.

 

"Through The Darkness of Future's Past,

The Magician Longs to See.

One Chants Out Between Two Worlds:

Fire Walk With Me."

 

this was originally a poem written by Twin Peaks creator/director David Lynch.

 

 

Also, The "Berserker" dude's song in Clerks:

 

"My love for you is like a truck BESERKER!

Would you like some making **** BESERKER!

My love for you is ticking clock BESERKER!

Would you like to **** my **** BESERKER!"

 

lolz.. that cracks me up all the time

Pierre Trudeau, upon hearing how Richard Nixon referred to him as "My Canadian friend, that a$$hole Trudeau.": "I've been called worse things by better men."

 

Tony Soprano: "Cunnilingus and psychiatry have brought us to this!"

 

Mark Brandon "Chopper" Read: "If you pull a weapon on cops 'just to scare them', you stand a bloody good chance of scaring them into blowing your head off."

 

^^on "Nick the Greek": "He is a western suburbs drug dealer. Sure I burnt his house down. So what? ... Who would make a fuss about burning his his house down? I got two years in jail for that and shooting the drug dealer. So what? Burning Nick the Greek's house down, so what, who cares? Don't mention to me about Nick the Greek with his $60,000 a month from heroin and wanting to whinge to me about burning his house down. He's only screaming because he lost the dope in the house. ... People who ask me why I burned his house down obviously don't know Nick. Any reasonable person who met him would want to either knock him out or burn his house down. On reflection, I believe Nick the Greek should be set on fire himself on a regular basis."

 

^^on Australian bikers: "The Melbourne chapter of the Outlaws were 1% bikers. What I eventually found out was that meant if you get one inside a police station, there's a 99% chance he'll spill his guts."

Okay, I don't remember the man that said this I read it like 8 years ago and it cracked my up.

 

This is a paraphrase:

 

Your manuscript is both innovative and original. But the part the was innovative wasn't original and the part that was original wasn't innovative.

 

I read that when I was still in college and it reminded me of paper writing.

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." - Albert Einstein

 

"Never argue with an idiot. They will only pull you down to their level, then beat you with experience." - Brad Slipiec

 

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be" - Douglas Adams

 

"Let's think the unthinkable, let's do the undoable, let's prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all."

 

"If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands."

 

'"(..) Sir Isaac Newton, renowned inventor of the milled-edge coin and the catflap!"

"The what?" said Richard.

"That catflap! A device of the utmost cunning, perspicuity and invention. It is a door within a door, you see, a ..."

"Yes," said Richard, "there was also the small matter of gravity."

"Gravity," said Dirk with a slightly dismissed shrug, "yes, there was that as well, I suppose. Though that, of course, was merely a discovery. It was there to be discovered." ...

"You see?" he said, "They even keep it on at weekends. Someone was bound to notice sooner or later. But the catflap ... ah, there is a very different matter. Invention, pure creative invention."'

 

"A suffusion of yellow." (A calculator's response to the question of any math problem with an answer larger than four.)

 

"It was a couple of days before Kate Schechter became aware of any of these things, or indeed of anything at all in the outside world.

She passed the time quietly in a world of her own in which she was surrounded as far as the eye could see with old cabin trunks full of past memories in which she rummaged with great curiosity, and sometimes bewilderment. Or, at least, about a tenth of the cabin trunks were full of vivid, and often painful or uncomfortable memories of her past life; the other nine-tenths were full of penguins, which surprised her. Insofar as she recognised at all that she was dreaming, she realised that she must be exploring her own subconscious mind. She had heard it said that humans are supposed only to use about a tenth of their brains, and that no one was very clear what the other nine-tenths were for, but she had certainly never heard it suggested that they were used for storing penguins."

 

"Anything that is in the world when you're born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works. Anything that's invented between when you're fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things."

 

"Technology is a word that describes something that doesn't work yet."

 

"Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so."

 

"In fact, I wanted to be John Cleese and it took some time to realize the job was in fact taken."

 

"In the beginning the Universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move."

 

-Douglas Adams

@ Jae Onasi - I've never told you but I got a good laugh the first time I figured out what the quote in your signature was about. I won't tell you how long it took me though... :blush2:

It's a lot easier if you can see the guys with the red brooms on the top of their helmets carrying off Hercules, because then you're really thinking "Roman".

 

I had taped that episode because I couldn't see it when it was originally on. Here I was, 11 pm, merrily watching along, when that scene hits. I laughed so hard I was incapacitated on the sofa, doubled over, and I woke Jimbo up. When I could finally move again, I found the remote, shut off the tape, and laughed for another 10 minutes before I could turn it back on again to finish the movie.

 

I'm not sure how those guys on MST3K got through the shows without bursting out laughing themselves sometimes. I can only imagine how many takes they had to do to whip out those comments in such a deadpan manner.
