Re: All Time - Greatest Movie Quotes
I have a Man on Fire quote or two as well. I love the delivery in that one.
Quote:
Lisa: What are you gonna do?
Creasy: What I do best. I'm gonna kill 'em. Anyone that was involved. Anybody who profited from it. Anybody who opens their eyes at me.
Lisa: [Whispering] You kill 'em all.
|
Quote:
Pita: I love you, Creasy. And you love me too, don't you?
Creasy: Yes, I do. With all my heart, Pita. Go.
|
I could list more, because the combination of the dialogue and Denzel's rich, purposeful voice make so many of them magic. But those'll do.
john listed a bunch I liked. But I expected that he would  |

Re: All Time - Greatest Movie Quotes
My favorite Man On Fire line isn't even delivered by Denzel.
Rayburn: What were you shooting at, Crease?

Re: All Time - Greatest Movie Quotes
From The Patriot:
Benjamin Martin: "I have long feared that my sins would return to visit me, and the cost would be more than I could bear."
From Oh Brother Where Art Thou: (Which is a treasure trove of quotes)
Ulysses Everett McGill: "Pete, it's a fool that looks for logic in the chambers of the human heart." |

Re: All Time - Greatest Movie Quotes
Josh, excellent quotes, but for my money the whole movie is one excellent quote. My fiance and I have entire conversations using nothing but Grail quotes.
Run away
Bring out your dead
Its just a flesh wound
Ie Jesu domine, donna eas requiem. . . WHAP
What manner of man are you that can summon fire without flint or tinder?
Ni!
Message for you, sir
\"The old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost.\"

Re: All Time - Greatest Movie Quotes
ok, i apologize for the length of this, but i had to post it as one of the greatest, most well-written scenes with of all time:
Arthur: Old woman!
Dennis: Man!
Arthur: Man, sorry... What knight lives in that castle over there?
Dennis: I'm 37!
Arthur: What?
Dennis: I'm 37, I'm not old!
Arthur: Well I can't just call you "Man"...
Dennis: You could say "Dennis"...
Arthur: I didn't know you were called Dennis.
Dennis: Well you didn't bother to find out, did you?
Arthur: I did say sorry about the "old woman", but from behind you looked...
Dennis: (interrupting) What I object to is your automatically treatin' me like an inferior!
Arthur: Well I AM king...
Dennis: Oh, King, eh? Oh, very nice... And how'd you get that, eh? By exploiting the workers! By hanging on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic an' social differences in our society! If there's ever gonna be any progress in our society...
Woman: Denny, there's some lovely filth down here!
[Noticing Arthur] Oh! How d'you do?
Arthur: How do you do, good lady. I am Arthur, King of the Britons. Whose castle is that?
Woman: King of the who?
Arthur: The Britons.
Woman: Who are the Britons?
Arthur: Well we all are... We are all Britons... And I am your king.
Woman: I didn't know we had a king... I thought we were an autonomous collective.
Dennis: You're foolin' yourself. We're livin' in a dictatorship! A self-perpetuatin' autocracy in which the working classes...
Woman: (interrupting) Oh there you go, bringing class into it again...
Dennis: That's what it's all about! If only people would...
Arthur: Please, please, good people, I am in haste. Who lives in that castle?
Woman: No one lives there.
Arthur: Then who is your lord?
Woman: We don't have a lord.
Arthur: What?
Dennis: I told you. We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to sort of act as a sort of executive officer for the week.
Arthur: Yes.
Dennis: But all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting...
Arthur: Yes I see.
Dennis: ...by a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs...
Arthur: Be quiet!
Dennis: But by a two-thirds majority in the case of more major...
Arthur: Be quiet! I order you to be quiet!
Woman: Order, eh? Who does he think he is?
Arthur: I am your king!
Woman: Well I didn't vote for you!
Arthur: You don't vote for kings.
Woman: Well how'd you become king then?
[Angelic music plays...]
Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king!
Dennis: (interrupting) Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government! Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcicial aquatic ceremony!
Arthur: Be quiet!
Dennis: Well you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you!
Arthur: SHUT UP!
Dennis: I mean, if I went 'round sayin' I was Emperor, just because some moistened bink lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!
Arthur: SHUT UP! WILL YOU SHUT UP! [Grabs Dennis]
Dennis: Ah! Now we see the violence inherent in the system!
Arthur: SHUT UP!
Dennis: Oh, come and see the violence inherent in the system! Help! Help! I'm being repressed!
Arthur: (muttering) Bloody peasant!
Dennis: Oh, what a giveaway! Did you hear that? Did you hear that, eh? That's what I'm on about! Did you see him repressin' me? You saw it, didn't you?

Re: All Time - Greatest Movie Quotes
Your Friends and Neighbours
[during sex]
Terri: is there any chance you could just shut the fuck up?
---
Jerry: [after much prodding by Barry] Ok. The best fuck I ever had. That would be your wife. That was the best fuck I ever had.
Cary: That beats my story.
2001: A Space Odyssey
HAL: I'm sorry, Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.
---
HAL: Just what do you think you're doing, Dave?
Lone Star
Chucho Montoya: You're the sheriff of Rio County, right? Un jefe mui respectado.
[drawing a line in the sand]
Chucho Montoya: Step across this line. You're not the sheriff of nothing anymore, just some tejano with a lot of questions I don't have to answer. A bird flying south, you think he sees this line? Rattlesnake? Javelina? Whatever you got. You think halfway across that line they start thinking different? Why should a man?
Sheriff Sam Deeds: Your government's always been pretty happy to have that line, the question's just been where to draw it.
Chucho Montoya: My government can go fuck itself, and so can yours! I'm talking about people here. Men.
---
Pilar: All that other stuff, all that history? To hell with it, right? Forget the Alamo.

Gattaca
Vincent: You want to know how I did it? This is how I did it, Anton: I never saved anything for the swim back.
