favorite lines

[Full Quiver]

I am terrible about remembering lines from movies. Some folks, like Barkey Bryant, can recite from memory entire scenes and maybe even movies.

What are some of your favorite lines and which films are they from?

[DaJudge]

"Try not. Do, or do not. There is no try." Yoda, The Empire Strikes Back

[crispfin]

"Wanna know how I got these scars?" The Joker, The Dark Knight

[bibleguy]

"I know that we are the chosen people. But sometimes couldn't you choose someone else?" Tevye, Fiddler on the Roof

[Full Quiver]

Great line by Yoda!!!!

Just about anything from O Brother:

Thank God your mammy died giving birth. If she'd have seen you, she'd have died of shame.

Well, ain't this place a geographical oddity. Two weeks from everywhere!

[RamboPreacher]

"...What have you done today?"

"If you're good at something, never do it for free." - The Joker from The Dark Knight

~ Ná glac pioc comhairle gan comhairle ban.~
(Never take advice without a woman's guidance.)

"Have no friend. Trust no woman." -- Sethi to Rameses, The Ten Commandments.

(Just kidding about the quote. )


Actually, The Ten Commandments is full of great quotes. As is The Godfather.

"Leave the gun. Take the cannolis."

I have several favorites:

Toto, I’ve a feeling we’re not in Kansas any more! (The Wizard of Oz)

Run, Forrest, run (Forrest Gump)

There’s no place like home (The Wizard of Oz)

I’m ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille (Sunset Boulevard)

And bibleguy this one is for you...... (payback for my signature comment!)

Stupid is as stupid does. (Forrest Gump)

Ouch YellowRose...

Scarecrow: I haven't got a brain... only straw.
Dorothy: How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?
Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

The Wizard of Oz
