Ok guys, I’d be intrigued to know what your favourite quotes from films are.

A couple of mine but lots more to come:

“Listen. And understand. That terminator is out there. It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.” – The Terminator

“We accept the reality of the world with which we are presented.” – The Truman Show

“You (human beings) are an interesting species, an interesting mix. You’re capable of such beautiful dreams and such horrible nightmares.” – Contact

“Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.” – Inigo Montoya: The Princess Bride

Its a bit long but this movie was full of great lines…

[fencing]
Inigo Montoya: You are wonderful.
Man in Black: Thank you; I’ve worked hard to become so.
Inigo Montoya: I admit it, you are better than I am.
Man in Black: Then why are you smiling?
Inigo Montoya: Because I know something you don’t know.
Man in Black: And what is that?
Inigo Montoya: I… am not left-handed.
[Moves his sword to his right hand and gains an advantage]
Man in Black: You are amazing.
Inigo Montoya: I ought to be, after 20 years.
Man in Black: Oh, there’s something I ought to tell you.
Inigo Montoya: Tell me.
Man in Black: I’m not left-handed either.

Just about any quote from any Kevin Smith film is great. He is one of the best writers of my generation. Here are a couple from Mallrats:

“Eateries that operate within the designated square downstairs count as food court. Anything outside, of said designated sqaure, counts as an autonomous unit for mid-mall snacking. Now, if you’re going to wax intellectual about the subject…”

“His Kyrptonian biological makeup is enhanced by earth’s yellow sun. If Lois gets a tan the kid could kick right through her stomach. Only someone like Wonder Woman has a strong enough uterus to carry his kid. The only way he could bang regular chicks is with a kryptonite condom. That would kill him.”

‘A man may fight for many things:his country,his principles,his friends,the glistening tear on the cheek of a golden child.But personally,I’d mud wrestle my own mother for a ton of cash,an amusing clock and a stack of French porn.
Edmund Blackadder.
