[begins to walk away in disgust] Fuck off! Don't come following me! (Monty Python's The meaning of life) Daryl Zero: Now, a few words on looking for things. When you go looking for something specific, your chances of finding it are very bad. Because of all the things in the world, you're only looking for one of them. When you go looking for anything at all, your chances of finding it are very good. Because of all the things in the world, you're sure to find some of them. (Zero effect) Steve Arlo: There aren't evil guys and innocent guys. It's just.. It's just... It's just a bunch of guys. (Zero effect) Zardoz: The gun is good. Exterminators: The gun is good. Zardoz: The penis is evil. The penis shoots seeds, and makes new life, and poisons the earth with a plague of men, as once it was. But the gun shoots death, and purifies the earth of the filth of brutals. Go forth and kill! (Zardoz) Stanley White: The first time I saw you, I hated your guts. I think I even hated you before I met you. I hated you on TV. I hated you in Vietnam. You want to know what's destroying this country? It's not booze. It's not drugs. It's TV. It's media. It's people like you. It's vampires. I hate the way you make your living sticking microphones in people's faces. You lie every night at 6:00. I hate the way you kill real feelings. I hate everything that you stand for. Most of all, I hate rich kids and I hate this place. So why do I want to fuck you so bad? (1937) (Year of dragon) Judith Wells: A little exercise won't hurt you. George Macrae: I get all the exercise I need from going to the funerals of my athletic friends. Lulu Riley: Why don't you go out and look for a nice fatal accident?

I've heard that you will give 200 dollars for my head. Perhaps we should meet and talk. I am at the Juarez village at the border. Send 3 men, and instruct them not to shoot, as I am unarmed.

Kira: Which one, my mother's or my father's? Sonny: Either! Kira: The same as mine! Sonny: I get it. No questions. Kira: No questions, no lies. Sonny: No questions, no truth, either. Jeff: Well! Masturbate in hell! (Full contact) Railroad boss: So, how do I look? Assistant: Fat sir...uh I mean...rich...uh...fat with money.

[Reservoir dogs] Mr. Brown: O.K., let me tell you what Like a Virgin's about. It's all about this cooze who's a regular fuck machine, I'm talking morning, day, night, afternoon, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick. Mr. Blue: How many dicks is that? Mr. White: A lot. Mr. Brown: Then one day she meets this John Holmes motherfucker and it's like, whoa baby, I mean this cat is like Charles Bronson in the Great Escape, he's digging tunnels. Now, she's gettin the serious dick action and she's feeling something she ain't felt since forever. Pain. Pain. It hurts her. It shouldn't hurt her, you know her pussy should be Bubble Yum by now, but when this cat fucks her it hurts. It hurts just like it did the first time. You see the pain is reminding a fuck machine what it once was like to be a virgin. Hence, "Like a virgin." [Reservoir dogs] Mr. Pink: I'm very sorry the government taxes their tips, that's fucked up. That ain't my fault. It would seem to me that waitresses are one of the many groups the government fucks in the ass on a regular basis. Look, if you ask me to sign something that says the governemnt shouldn't do that, I'll sign it, put it to a vote, I'll vote for it, but what I won't do is play ball. And as for this non-college bullshit I got two words for that: learn to fuckin' type, 'cause if you're expecting me to help out with the rent you're in for a big fuckin' surprise. [Reservoir dogs] [Mr. Pink comes and sees that Mr. Orange is shot in the stomach] Mr. Pink: Is it bad? Mr. White: As opposed to good? [Reservoir dogs] Mr. White: If you get a customer, or an employee, who thinks he's Charles Bronson, take the butt of your gun and smash their nose in. [Reservoir dogs] Mr Brown: Mr. Brown? That sounds too much like Mr. Shit. [Reservoir dogs] [Mr. White and Mr. Pink are washing up after the robbery went sour, trying to figure out what happened] Mr. Pink: You kill anybody? Mr. White: A few cops. Mr. Pink: No real people? Mr. White: Just cops. [Reservoir dogs] Ordell: Is she dead, yes or no? Louis: Pretty much. [Jackie Brown] Max Cherry: I'll bet, besides maybe an afro, you look exactly how you did at 29. Jackie Brown: Well, my ass aint the same. Max Cherry: Bigger? Jackie Brown: Yeah. Max Cherry: Aint nothin' wrong with that! [Jackie Brown] Seth: I may be a bastard, but I'm not a fucking bastard. [From dusk till down] Richard Gecko: The Ranger's taking a piss. Why don't I just go there, blow his head off and get outta here. Pete Bottoms: Don't do that! Look, you asked me to act natural, and I'm acting as natural - in fact, under the circumstances, I think I ought get a fuckin' Academy Award for how natural I'm acting. [From dusk till down] Ramsey: How do you like that cigar? Hunter: It's good, sir. Ramsey: It's your first? Hunter coughing: Yeah. Ramsey: Well, don't like it too much. They're more expensive than drugs. [Crimson Tide] Butch: You okay? Marcellus: No. I'm pretty fuckin' far from okay. [Pulp fiction] Marcellus: No one needs to know about this except you, me and Mr.-about-to-live- the-rest-of-his-short-ass-life-in-agonizing-pain-rapist here. [Pulp fiction] Mia: Why do we feel it's necessary to yack about bullshit in order to become comfortable? [Pulp fiction] Butch: I think I have a broken rib. Fabienne: From giving me oral pleasure? [Pulp fiction] Fabienne: Whose motorcycle is this? Butch: It's a chopper, baby. Fabienne: Whose chopper is this? Butch: It's Zed's. Fabienne: Who's Zed? Butch: Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead. [Pulp fiction] [Winston Wolf takes exception to Vincent's taking exception to his brusque manner] Winston Wolf: So, pretty please - with sugar on top ... clean the fuckin' car! [Pulp fiction] Vincent Vega: Jules, if you give that fuckin' nimrod fifteen hundred dollars, I'm gonna shoot him on general principles. [Pulp fiction] Lee on the phone: Who the fuck is Dick? Elliot: Huh? You want me to suck his dick? [True romance] Clarence Worley: If there's one thing this last week has taught me, it's better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it. [True romance] Clifford Worley: You're Sicilian, ha? Vincenzo Coccotti: Yeah, Sicilian. Clifford Worley: Ya know, I read a lot. Especially about things... about history. I find that shit fascinating. Here's a fact I don't know whether you know or not. Sicilians were spawned by niggers. Vincenzo Coccotti: Come again? Clifford Worley: It's a fact. See, Sicilians have black blood pumpin' through their hearts. If you don't believe me you can look it up. Hundreds and hundreds of years ago, you see, the Moors conquered Sicily. And the Moors are niggers. Vincenzo Coccotti: Yes... Clifford Worley: So you see, way back then, Sicilians were like wops from northern Italy. They all had blonde hair and blue eyes, but uh, well, then the Moors moved in there, and uh, they changed the whole country. They did so much fuckin' with Sicilian women that they changed the whole bloodline forever. That's why blonde hair and blue eyes became black hair and dark skin. You know, it's absolutely amazing to me to think that to this day, hundreds of years later, that Sicilians still carry that nigger gene. Now this... Vincenzo Coccotti: [laughs] Clifford Worley: No, I'm quoting... history. It's written, it's a fact, it's written. Vincenzo Coccotti: [laughs] I love this guy. Clifford Worley: Your ancestors are niggers. Yeah, and your great-great-great- great grandmother fucked a nigger, yeah, and she had a half nigger kid... Now, if that's a fact, tell me, am I lying? Cause you, you're part eggplant. [True romance] Nobody: That gun will replace your tongue. You will learn to speak through it. And your poetry will be written in blood.[Dead man] William Blake: What is your name? Nobody: My name is Nobody. William Blake: Excuse me? Nobody: My name is Xamichee, "he who talks loud say nothing." William Blake: "He who talks..." I thought you said your name was Nobody. Nobody: I preferred to be called Nobody.[Dead man] Fergus: Have you ever tried to pick up your teeth with broken fingers? (The crying game) John Henderson: You're running a food museum here. (Mother) Mac Thompson: Hello, honeybun. Miss me? Jane Wilson: No, I can always go to the zoo when you're away. Mac Thompson: Oh, I've got rivals, huh? Doug: I don't care how liberated this world becomes - a man will always be judged by the amount of alcohol he can consume - and a woman will be impressed, whether she likes it or not. Ace Rothstein: Running a casino is like robbing a bank with no cops around. For guys like me, Las Vegas washes away your sins. It's like a morality car wash. (Casino) Nicky Santoro: If you don't have my money for me, I'll crack your fucking head in front of everyone in the bank. And just about the time I get out of jail, hopefully, you'll be coming out of your coma. But guess what? I'll crack your fucking head again! 'Cause I'm fucking stupid! I don't give a fuck about jail! That's my business. That's what I do. (Casino) Jack: You know, I got a black eye once for kissing the bride. Miss Mills: Why, I thought it was customary to kiss the bride after the ceremony. Jack: Yeah, well, this was two years after. (Cab waiting) Nathanial: Oh, cappy, tell me about all of this. tell me about the sea. What does it mean to you? Captain Greybar: Basically, money. I come from six generations of seamen all with the same goal in life: catch fish, sell 'em, get drunk, and get laid. (Cabin boy) Nathanial: I love sitting up here, looking at those bright, twinkly things in the sky, I forget their technical name. Trina: Stars. Nathanial: Whatever. [Cabin boy] Nathanial Mayweather: I just don't get it! She seems totally uninterested in me, despite my smothering obsessiveness! [Cabin boy] Al Czervik: Oh, this your wife, huh? A lovely lady. Hey baby, you must've been something before electricity. (Caddyshack) [Joe is trading insults with a photographer] Joe: You know what you are - you're an ass-half... Takes two of you to make an ass-whole. King Arthur: Merlin told me once never to worry about it if you don't know what a woman is thinking. They don't do it that often. Prudence Honeywood: That's your room. You won't get much of a view I'm afraid. Alison Smith: You should have seen the view from my room in London. Prudence Honeywood: Was it a long street with every house a different sort of sadness in it? Alison Smith: It was a long row of back gardens, and the tall, sad houses were all the same. Prudence Honeywood: Ghastly in winter. Alison Smith: Airless in summer. You seem to know them. Prudence Honeywood: The only man who ever asked me to marry him wanted me to live in a house like that. I'm still a maid. Gil Kinney: You know, if my foot could talk... Nestor Pyle: Easy... Gil Kinney: ...it would say, "May I please go up this geek's ass!" Joseph Svenden: What can I say. I'm a bad man. But sometimes it is fun to be bad. (Carried away) Major Strasser: Are you one of those people who cannot imagine the Germans in their beloved Paris? Rick Blaine: It's not particularly my beloved Paris. Heinz: Can you imagine us in London? Rick Blaine: When you get there, ask me! Captain Renault: Hmmh! Diplomatist! Major Strasser: How about New York? Rick Blaine: Well there are certain sections of New York, Major, that I wouldn't advise you to try to invade.(Casablanca) Captain Louis Renault: What on earth brought you to Casablanca? Rick Blaine: My health. I came to Casablanca for the waters. Captain Louis Renault: The waters? What waters? We're in the desert. Rick Blaine: I was misinformed. (Casablanca) Frau Hoffner: Hmmm, it is little Otto. He was one of your mother's lovers. We often find him lying around. Mata Bond: Is he dead? Frau Hoffner: Hard to tell. He always looked like that.(Casino royale) Winston Conway: I'm not a moralist, I'm a lawyer. (Cash McCall) Hackshaw: You don't belive in magic? Lovecraft: I believe it, just don't use it. Hackshaw: Why? Lovecraft: Personal reasons. Hackshaw: And they are? Lovecraft: Personal.(Cast a deadly spell) Jackson Two-Bears: He's a murderer, a hired killer. His nose was bit off in a fight. Frankie Ballou: If I was gonna be scared, I'd be scared of the fella who bit it off, not him. (Cat Ballou) Bert: I went out with a girl once that told me to go jump in the lake... When I got back, she was gone. (Caught in the draft) Sam Cayhall: Save me. Your don't look like you can save a turkey from Thanksgiving. (The chamber) Blacky Gorman: Funny how a good kick in the pants will make a guy's head work. (Chance at heaven) Regina Lampert: Do you know what's wrong with you? Peter Joshua: No, what? Regina Lampert: Nothing! (Charade) Inspector Grandpierre: We use the guillotine in this country. I have always imagined that the blade, coming down, causes no more than a slight tickling sensation on the back of the neck. It is only a guess, of course. I hope none of you ever finds out for certain. (Charade) Alexander Dyle: Do women find it feminine to be so illogical, or can't they help it ? (Charade) Charlie Chan: If you want wild bird to sing do not put him in cage.(Charlie Chan in London) Charlie Chan: Holiday mood like fickle girl - privileged to change mind.(Charlie Chan in Shanghai) Charlie Chan: Some heads like hard nuts - much better if well cracked. (Charlie Chan`s chance) Charlie Chan: Necessity mother of invention, but sometimes step-mother of deception.(Charlie Chan`s secret) Colonel: Marijuana isn't a drug. Look at what goes on in Vietnam. From the general down to the private, they all smoke. Mme. Thevenot: As a result, once a week they bomb their own troops. Colonel: If they bomb their own troops, they must have their reasons.(Le charme discret de la bourgeoisie) Alyssa: For you, to fuck is to penetrate. You're used to the more traditional definition -- you inside some girl you do, jackhammering away, not noticing that bored look in her eyes. Banky: Hey, I always notice that bored look in their eyes. (Chasing Amy) Escobar: Isn't that your phone number? Jake Gittes: Is it? I forget. I don't call myself that often.(Chinatown) Jake Gittes: What makes you certain that your husband is, um, involved with someone? Mrs. Mulwray: A wife can tell. Jake Gittes: Mrs. Mulwray, do you love your husband? Mrs. Mulwray: Yes, of course. Jake Gittes: Then go home and forget everything.(Chinatown) Evelyn Mulwray: Hollis seems to think you're an innocent man. Jake Gittes: Well, I've been accused of a lot of things before, Mrs. Mulwray, but never that.(Chinatown) Noah Cross: 'Course I'm respectable. I'm old. Politicians, ugly buildings, and whores all get respectable if they last long enough.(Chintown) Benny: Have...have you ever gone all the way with a girl? Jack: No. Not quite. Benny: Would you like to? Jack: Now? Benny: No. It wasn't an invitation - just a request for information. (Circle of friends) Burakov: You think that a man is what he says. Fetisov: He is, if he talks for a living.(Citizen X) Burakov: A man is what he fights for. Fetisov: I don't fight for anything. Burakov: I know. (Citizen X) Bonnie Rayburn: Listen, it took a lot of courage to do what you did. Thank you. Mitch Robbins: I'm married. (City slickers) Octavius: Antony is dead? You say that as if it were a everyday occurence. The soup is hot, the soup is cold. Antony is alive, Antony is dead. (Cleopatra) Randal: Which did you like better? "Jedi" or "The Empire Strikes Back"? Dante Hicks: "Empire". Randal: Blasphemy! Dante Hicks: "Empire" had the better ending. Luke loses his hand and finds out Vader is his father. Han is frozen and captured by Boba Fett. It ends on such a down note. Just like in real life. All "Jedi" had was a bunch of Muppets. (Clerks) Low I.Q. Video Customer: Do you have that one with that guy who was in that movie last year ? (Clerks) Silent Bob: You know, there's a million fine looking women in the world, dude. But they don't all bring you lasagna at work. Most of 'em just cheat on you.(Clerks) Dante: Yeah, I mean aside from the cheating, we were a great couple. I mean that's what high school was about, algebra, bad lunch, and infidelity.(Clerks) Dante Hicks: My girlfriend's sucked 37 dicks! Customer: In a row ?(Clerks) Randal: This job would be great if it wasn't for the fucking customers.(Clerks) Qualen: You want to kill me, don't you, Tucker? Well, get a number and get in line.(Cliffhanger) Eric Qualen: Kill a few people, they call you a murderer. Kill a million and you're a conqueror.(Cliffhanger) For this English exam question:"What is courage?" One student received and A for a one-word answer: "This". Never say "Oops" in the operating room. - Dr. Leo Troy Never murder a man when he's busy committing suicide. -Woodrow Wilson Rita Rudner's Facts About Men : -If you buy your husband or boyfriend a video camera, for the first few weeks he has it, lock the door when you go to the bathroom. Most of my husband's early films end with a scream and a flush. Men like phones with lots of buttons. It makes them feel important. A good place to meet a man is at the dry cleaner. These men usually have jobs and bathe. Women take clothing much more seriously than men. I've never seen a man walk into a party and say "Oh, my God, I'm so embarrassed; get me out of here. There's another man wearing a black tuxedo." Most men hate to shop. That's why the men's department is usually on the first floor of a department store, two inches from the door. No man is charming all of the time. Even Cary Grant is on record saying he wished he could be Cary Grant. Men are less sentimental than women. No man has ever seen the movie THE WAY WE WERE twice, voluntarily. Most women are introspective: "Am I in love? Am I emotionally and creatively fulfilled?" Most men are outrospective: "Did my team win? How's my car?" If a man says, "I'll call you," and he doesn't, he didn't forget...he didn't lose your number... he didn't die. He just didn't want to call you. Men hate to lose. I once beat my husband at tennis. I asked him, "Are we going to have sex again?" He said, "Yes, but not with each other." Getting rid of a man without hurting his masculinity is a problem. "Get out" and "I never want to see you again" might sound like a challenge. If you want to get rid of a man, I suggest saying, "I love you... I want to marry you... I want to have your children." Sometimes they leave skid marks. Men accept compliments much better than women do. Example: "Mitch, you look great." Mitch:"Thanks." On the other side: "Ruth, you look great." Ruth: "I do? Must be the lighting." Men who listen to classical music tend not to spit. Men are self-confident because they grow up identifying with superheroes. Women have bad self-images because they grow up identifying with Barbie.

[Complex world] -Ellie: Dad, do you think there's people on other planets? Ted: I don't know, Sparks. But I guess I'd say if it is just us... seems like an awful waste of space. [Contact] -Jay Leno: So there's life on other planets. That's sure going to change the Miss Universe contest! [Contact] -George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950): "The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact than a drunken man is happier than a sober one." -Dave Barry, "$#$##^#!^#&@#@!": I disapprove of the F-word, not because it's dirty, but because we use it as a substitute for thoughtful insults, and it frequently leads to violence. What we ought to do, when we anger each other, say, in traffic, is exchange phone numbers, so that later on, when we've had time to think of witty and learned insults or look them up in the library, we could call each other up: You: Hello? Bob? Bob: Yes? You: This is Ed. Remember? The person whose parking space you took last Thursday? Outside of Sears? Bob: Oh yes! Sure! How are you, Ed? You: Fine, thanks. Listen, Bob, the reason I'm calling is: "Madam, you may be drunk, but I am ugly, and ..." No, wait. I mean: "you may be ugly, but I am Winston Churchill and ..." No, wait. (Sound of refer- ence book thudding onto the floor.) S-word. Excuse me. Look, Bob, I'm going to have to get back to you. Bob: Fine. -William Faulkner: "It's a shame that the only thing a man can do for eight hours a day is work. He can't eat for eight hours; he can't drink for eight hours; he can't make love for eight hours. The only thing a man can do for eight hours is work." -Jack Handey [Deep thought]: If I lived back in the wild west days, instead of carrying a six-gun in my holster, I'd carry a soldering iron. That way, if some smart-aleck cowboy said something like "Hey, look. He's carrying a soldering iron!" and started laughing, and everybody else started laughing, I could just say, "That's right, it's a soldering iron. The soldering iron of justice." Then everybody would get real quiet and ashamed, because they had made fun of the soldering iron of justice, and I could probably hit them up for a free drink. -Beaumarchis: "Drinking without being thirsty and making love at any time, Madame, are the only things that distinguish us from other animals." -Reporter: "Is it true that you smoke eight to ten cigars a day?" Old man: "That's true." Reporter: "Is it true that you drink five martinis a day?" Old man: "That's true." Reporter: "Is it true that you still surround yourself with beautiful young women?" Old man: "That's true." Reporter: "What does your doctor say about all of this?" Old man: "My doctor is dead." -results of a survey by Jon Miller at Northern Illinois University: "36 percent of the American Public believes that boiling radioactive milk makes it safe to drink." -Hunter S. Thompson, on the US war against Iraq: "Cover a war in a place where you can't drink beer or talk to a woman? Hell no!" -Dave Barry: "In the Bowling Alley of Tomorrow, there will even be machines that wear rental shoes and throw the ball for you. Your sole function will be to drink beer." -W. C. Fields: "My illness is due to my doctor's insistence that I drink milk, a whitish fluid they force down helpless babies." -[In a book depository.] Georgina: Are we safe here? Michael: Does Albert read? [Cook the Thief His Wife & Her Lover, The (1989)] -John Talbot: Heaven does not interest mankind, it is too much like a never ending Sunday afternoon. It is Hell that captivates us. [Cormorant, The (1993) (TV)] -Anna: Generally people don't label me a lesbian. They label me nuts. When they hear I had a relationship with a woman for five years, and I only slept with her twice, they label me nuts. [Costa Brava: A Family Album] -Lucien Cordier: We've got to laugh in this world, or else we'd shoot ourselves. [Coup de torchon (1981)] -Le Peron: You've got nothing to do around here. Lucien Cordier: Doing nothing is my job. I'm paid for it. Le Peron: So go do nothing somewhere else. [Coup de torchon (1981)] -[Marcel Chevasson is bragging about how he dealt with two offenders.] Marcel Chevasson: Where do you think they are now? Lucien Cordier: In jail? Marcel Chevasson: Someday you'll learn a coffin costs the state less than a man in a cell, old chum. [Coup de torchon (1981)] -Priest: You'll never arrest anybody. How can they respect you? You've got to show folks you're brave, honest, and hard-working. Here, hold this. [Lucien Cordier holds down a statue of Christ while the Priest nails it to a cross.] Lucien Cordier: I can't. Priest: Why not? Lucien Cordier: First, because I'm not brave, honest, and hard-working, and second, because I don't think my bosses want me to be. Priest: How come? Lucien Cordier: If they wanted someone brave, honest, and hard-working, they wouldn't have hired me. [Coup de torchon (1981)] -Lucien Cordier: I do things without thinking. Later I understand. I never plan ahead. [Coup de torchon (1981)] -Lucien Cordier: Better the blind man who pisses out the window than the joker who told him it was a urinal. Know who the joker is? It's everybody. [Coup de torchon (1981)] -Lucien Cordier: Do you know the question no one can answer? The big question? George Le Peron: Go ahead. Lucien Cordier: When you scratch your balls, is it 'cause they itch, or 'cause it feels good? [Coup de torchon (1981)] -[Rose realizes she is wanted for murder.] Rose: You have to help me. I can't take it. What can I do? Lucien Cordier: How the hell do I know? Any idiot can see they were shot with your gun. Rose: But that's horrible! Lucien Cordier: At first it is horrible. But then you start to think about starving kids, little girls sold into slavery, women whose sex is sewn up... God created murder out of pure kindness. Murder is nothing compared to those horrors. [Coup de torchon (1981)] -Lucien Cordier: Do you know why dogs sniff each other's butts? When dogs still ruled the world, they held a convention to vote new laws. The head dog said: "I suggest that due to poor hygiene here, our assholes we leave at the door." The dogs agreed and de-assholed. But just then, a tornado blew in and mixed all the assholes up. Not one dog recognized his own. Ever since, they smell each other's asses. And it'll go on till the end of time. [Coup de torchon (1981)] -Rose: They say there are a hundred kinds of deaths. I hope yours will be the worst. [Coup de torchon (1981)] -Aunt Sofia: That's not a dress you wear to a wedding. That's a dress you wear to a hooker's wedding! [Cousins] -Wil Andersen: Big mouth don't make a big man. [Cowboys] -Cal Keegan: "If your computer doesn't multitask, it ain't shit." -Elwood Blues: "It wasn't lies. It was just bullshit, that's all." -Henry Miller: "When shit becomes valuable, the poor will be born without assholes." -"Excuses are like assholes: Everybody has one and they both stink." -Jeff Stout: "Opinions are like assholes: Everybody has one and nobody wants to look at the other guy's." -Rev. Shayne: Save your soul, whore! China: Save your money, shithead! [Crimes of Passion (1984)] -Wife: Didn't your mother teach you to wash your hands after you went to the bathroom? Bobby Grady: No, she taught me not to piss on my fingers. [Crimes of Passion (1984)] -Girl in bar: You're cute. Renaldo the Heel: Keep talkin', baby. Maybe you'll tell me something I don't already know. [Crimewave] -Oliver Cromwell: It's an odd thing, Mr. Ireton. Every man who wages war believes God is on his side. I'll warrant God should often wonder who is on his. [Cromwell] -Bobby: Did you get buttfucked in prison? John Booth: It only hurts the first time. [The crossing guard] -Willie Brown: The blues ain't nothin' but a good man feelin' bad, thinkin' 'bout the woman he used to have. [Crossroads] -Joseph Stalin: "A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic." -Woody Allen: "There are worse things in life than death. Have you ever spent an evening with an insurance salesman?" -Chris Rapier: "I hate life, I hate death and everything in between just doesn't interest me." -Confucius, The Confucian Analects, bk. 11:11: "While you are not able to serve men, how can you serve spirits [of the dead]?...While you do not know life, how can you know about death?" -John Wayne: "Courage is being scared to death - but saddling up anyway." -Froude: "Wild animals never kill for sport. Man is the only one to whom the torture and death of his fellow creatures is amusing in itself." -Darlene LaVonne: You drinkin' that stuff so early? Delong: Listen, doll girl, when you drink as much as I do, you gotta start early. [Cry danger] -Michael Chamberlain: I don't think a lot of people realise how important innocence is to innocent people. [A cry in the dark] -[Looking at a Playboy magazine] Dexter: This doesn't look like my mom. Eric: These aren't moms. These are women. This is what they're supposed to look like. [The cure(1995)] -Dexter: This is stupid. Eric: Yeah? Well, about twenty years ago there was this guy. He noticed some mold growing on his bread and he started feeding it to people. Everybody said he was stupid. You know what it turned out to be? Aspirin. [The cure] -Gabe: He's bigger than you are, stronger, younger, but you are black. Roy: What's that supposed to mean? Gabe: I'm just trying to motivate you, you know, it's a Roots kind of thing. Roy: Well, you are shit at motivation. [Diggstown] -Timothy Fenwick, Jr.: All I did was I parked the car on a nice lonely road, I looked at her, and I said "fuck or fight." [Diner(1982)] -Dolores: Sing to me! Willy Nilly: How about "One Hour with You"? Dolores: Sure! But first - sing to me! [Diplomaniacs] -Johnny: No, I mean the way he saved her. I mean, I... I could never do anything like that. That was somethin'. The reason people treat me like I'm nothin' is 'cause I'm nothin'. [Dirty dancing] -Baby Houseman: Me? I'm scared of everything! I'm scared of what I saw, I'm scared of what I did, of who I am, and most of all I'm scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life the way I feel when I'm with you! [Dirty dancing] -Leslie: You're much too nice to turn me out. Logan: Nice! My dear young lady, you don't know me. The trouble with me is that I'm weak. A charming young girl like you can put anything over on me in five minutes. But at least I know my weakness, so I force myself to be rude. Sometimes even brutal! [Leslie starts backing Logan into a corner] Leslie: You do like talking about yourself, don't you? Logan: Why... yes... most men do. But at least they know the truth about themselves. Women don't. They only know the truth about each other. [The divorce of Lady X] -Logan: We have ample opportunities in this court for learning what women mean, or what they mean they mean if in these days they mean anything at all. [The divorce of Lady X] -Logan: Modern woman has no loyalty, decency, or justice; no endurance, reticence, or self-control; no affection, fine feelings, or mercy. In short, she is unprincipled, relentless, and exacting; idle, unproductive, and tedious; unimaginative, humorless, and vain; vindictive, undignified, and weak. And the sooner man takes out his whip again, the better for sanity and progress. [The divorce of Lady X] -[Harry Callahan has to explain why he shot a man] Harry Callahan: Well, when an adult male is chasing a female with intent to commit rape, I shoot the bastard. That's my policy. The Mayor: Intent? How did you establish that? Harry Callahan: When a man is chasing a woman through an alley with a butcher's knife and a hard-on, I figure he isn't out collecting for the Red Cross! [Dirty Harry] -Tina: Trust you? The last time I trusted you, Mookie, I ended up with a son. [Do the right thing] -Mookie: You know, fuck you and fuck Frank Sinatra. Pino: Fuck you too and fuck Michael Jackson. [Do the right thing] -Charlie Chan: He who takes whatever gods send with smile has learned life's hardest lesson. I, personally, find it difficult to achieve that smile. [Docks of New Orleans (1948)] -Waiter: Are you ready to order? Rose: Yes, goddammit. I'm going to have the fucking poached salmon, with the son-of-a-bitching rice, and a dirty bastard salad with a shitload of Roquefort dressing. Thank you. And um, who knows what this asshole wants. Eddie Birdlace: Uh, I'll just take a fucking beer. [Dogfight] -Dolores Claiborne: If you say you're sorry one more time, I'll get your butt up so high you'll look like the Hunchback of Notre Dame. [Dolores Claiborne] -Vera Donovan: Sometimes an accident can be an unhappy woman's best friend. [Dolores Claiborne] -Dashiki: Now kids, what do we say to a man that Mommy just met? Kids: Are you my daddy? [Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood (1996)] -Penn: We believe violence is exciting in entertainment. In American, we have the First Amendment; there are no censors. But there are anti-violence censorship letter-writers. They want to make sure you'll never see anything that they wouldn't want to see. They say that if we had nothing on TV but shows like thirtysomething and Growing Pains all the world problems would be worked out in an adult, peaceful manner. They don't understand EVERYTHING's fake on TV. Homer Simpson doesn't work in a nuclear power plant! Homer Simpson is just an actor! [Don't Try This at Home! (1990) (TV)] -Jim Morrison: Actually I don't remember being born, It must have happened during one of my black outs. [The doors] -Johnny Dalton: And if we did get married, how would we manage? I have nothing. How would we live? Mildred 'Mibs' Goodhug: I'm sure something would come along. Johnny Dalton: Yeah. And we'd have to feed that too. [Double dynamite (1951)] -Poole: You should go out, sir. London offers many amusements for a gentlemen like you, sir. Dr. Jekyll: Yes, but gentlemen like me daren't take advantage of them, Poole. Gentlemen like me have to be very careful of what we do or say. [Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931)] -Mr. Hyde: Perhaps you prefer a gentleman. One of those fine-mannered and honorable gentlemen. Those panting hypocrites who like your legs but talk about your garters. [Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931)] -Nurse Molly Byrd: Nurses are just like husbands. You can abuse them, insult them, work 'em to death, jump all over 'em. They'll take it. But give 'em a bad cup of coffee and you got a revolution on your hands. [Dr.Kildare's strange case] -Ray: Can I come up, I mean just for five minutes? Lena: It wouldn't take five minutes. [Dreamlover] -[Jack McDermott sits nude in his room and drinks red wine.] Jack McDermott: This is the blood of our savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. And a damned fine beaujolais! [The dream team] -Rufus T. Firefly: Not that I care, but where is your husband? Mrs. Teasdale: Why, he's dead. Rufus T. Firefly: I bet he's just using that as an excuse. Mrs. Teasdale: I was with him to the very end. Rufus T. Firefly: No wonder he passed away. Mrs. Teasdale: I held him in my arms and kissed him. Rufus T. Firefly: Oh, I see, then it was murder. Will you marry me? Did he leave you any money? Answer the second question first. [The duck soup] -Rufus T. Firefly: We're fighting for this woman's honor, which is more than she ever did. [The duck soup] -Gabriel Feraud: I knew a man who was stabbed to death by a woman; gave him the surprise of his life. Laura: I once knew a woman who was beaten to death by a man. I don't think it surprised *her* at all. [The duellists] -Mrs. Dubrow: I like psychotic people. They get things done. [Dunston checks in] -Lord Rutledge: From the look of my soup I'd say someone in your kitchen has a serious hair loss problem. [Dunston checks in] -Criswell: Eddie, we're in show biz. It's all about razzle-dazzle. Appearences. If you look good, and you talk well, people will swallow anything. [Ed Wood] -Eddie Brodsky: Four women in the same elevator! I haven't been with four women in the same time zone. [Ed's next move] -Charles Morse: You know, I once read an interesting book which said that, uh, most people lost in the wilds, they, they die of shame. Stephen: What? Charles Morse: Yeah, see, they die of shame. "What did I do wrong? How could I have gotten myself into this?" And so they sit there and they... die. Because they didn't do the one thing that would save their lives. Robert Green: And what is that, Charles? Charles Morse: Thinking. [The edge] -Charles Morse: Never feel sorry for a man who owns a plane. [The edge] -John Wintergreen: I'm gonna do for you, in six weeks, what it took someone six months to do for me: nothin'. [Electra Glide in Blue] -John Wintergreen: I need you to give me some information. Pig Man: I'll give you some information. You're standing in pigshit. [Electra Glide in Blue] -Man: Hey! Hey, Hallie, Hallie Martin! We met in New York, remember? Hallie Martin: Did we like each other? [The electric horseman] -Ampco Industries PR Man: Grace, why don't you stand in front of that poster with Sonny, and Steve can take your picture to bring home. Sonny Steele: Oh, no, why don't you just take a picture of Grace in front of that picture of me with that box with the picture of me on the box holding the picture of me with the picture of me? Then you've got Grace, and you've got a whole bunch of pictures of me. [The electric horseman] -Elvira: Bloody Mary. Bartender: No hard liquor served past eight o'clock. Do you want a virgin? Elivra: Maybe, but, ah... I'll have a couple of drinks first. [Elvira, Mistress of the dark] -Mr. Knightley: I rode through the rain! I'd - I'd ride through worse than that if I could just hear your voice telling me that I might, at least, have some chance to win you. [Emma] -Emma: The most incomprehensible thing in the world to a man is a woman who rejects his offer of marriage.[Emma] -Emma Woodhouse: Thank you for being so thoughtful. Rev. Elton: Thank you for thinking I'm thoughtful. [Emma] -Maxton: I heard you resigned from the Scouts. Jim: I've become an atheist. [Empire of the sun] -Mike Max: Perversely. That's one thing I think I can define now. It's when things are upside down and you start to like 'em that way. [The end of violence] -Almsy: I fear Madox knows about us, he keeps mentioning Anna Karenina. [The english patient] -Almsy: I once traveled with a guide who was taking me to Faya. He didn't speak for nine hours. At the end of it he pointed to the horizon and said, "Faya!" That was a good day. [The english patient] -Bob Hauk: Remember, once you're inside you're on your own. S.D. "Snake" Plissken: Oh, you mean I can't count on you? Bob Hauk: No. S.D. "Snake" Plissken: Good! [Escape from New York] -Bob Hauk: It's the survival of the human race, Plissken. Something you don't give a shit about. [Escape from New York] -Apollo: Sports make you grunt and smell. Stay in school, use your brains. Be a thinker, not a stinker. [Rocky] -Rocky: I see three of him out there. Paulie: Hit the one in the middle. [Rocky IV] -Alvy Singer: Hey, don't knock masturbation! It's sex with someone I love. [Annie Hall]

So in conclusion, gentlemen, fuck you.--NY State Senator Allan K. Race (D), in a written response to a racist group's letter.
