"It's extraordinary to me that you people cannot take care of yourselves and your children. One or the other of you is forever in the way. How do you know what injury you might do to my horses?" - The Marquis St. Evremonde (Basil Rathbone) , A Tale of Two Cities, 1935

Get busy living or get busy dying.

 

Wasted talent.

 

What are you going to do, charge me with smoking?

"Every living creature dies alone."   -Roberta Sparrow from Donnie Darko


 

In The Usual Suspects the whole jail scene at the beginning is pretty funny and memorable.  Also "The greatest trick the devil pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist."


 

"There is something about yourself that you don't know. Something that you will deny even exists, until it's too late to do anything about it. It's the only reason you get up in the morning. The only reason you suffer the [BLEEP] boss, the blood, the sweat and the tears. This is because you want people to know how good, attractive, generous, funny, wild and clever you really are. Fear or revere me, but please, think I'm special. We share an addiction. We're approval junkies. We're all in it for the slap on the back and the gold watch. The hip-hip-hoo-[BLEEP]' rah. Look at the clever boy with the badge, polishing his trophy. Shine on you crazy diamond, because we're just monkeys wrapped in suits, begging for the approval of others."      Revolver


 

"One thing I've learned in the last seven years: in every game and con there's always an opponent, and there's always a victim. The trick is to know when you're the latter, so you can become the former."     Revolver


 

"As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster. To me, being a gangster was better than being President of the United States." and
"One day some of the kids from the neighborhood carried my mother's groceries all the way home. You know why? It was outta respect."     Goodfellas


 

"Without pain, without sacrifice, we would have nothing."    Fight Club


 

"It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything."      Fight Club

I could go on for days and days about good movie quotes but those are just a few of my favorites.

"When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk" - Tuco in The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

This diatribe (?) by DeNiro playing Capone is still one of my favorite lines. This quote and the corresponding camera shot at the end just may be my favorite De Palma scene ever.

 

<p style="margin-left:40px;">Capone: Life goes on!


<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

<p style="margin-left:40px;">A man becomes preeminent, he's expected to have enthusiasms. Enthusiasms, enthusiasms...


<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

<p style="margin-left:40px;">What are mine? What draws my admiration? What is that which gives me joy? Baseball!


<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

<p style="margin-left:40px;">A man stands alone at the plate. This is the time for what? For individual achievement. There he stands alone. But in the field, what? Part of a team. Teamwork... Looks, throws, catches, hustles. Part of one big team. Bats himself the live-long day, Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, and so on. If his team don't field... what is he? You follow me? No one.


<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

<p style="margin-left:40px;">Sunny day, the stands are full of fans. What does he have to say? I'm goin' out there for myself. But... I get nowhere unless the team wins.


<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

<p style="margin-left:40px;">Hoods: Team!

Great scene.  A tad on the gory side.

That is one of my all time favorite movie characters.   Eli Wallach could have won an Oscar for that role, in my opinion.   Seriously.

Quote:Great scene.  A tad on the gory side.
 

To me it isn't so much gory as it is graphic. I mean, you can feel something coming, but the violence that DeNiro exudes is just chilling. Then the shot from above where De Palma is really trying to contrast the red with the black & white... just perfect.
Frank: Who would you rather bone, Meg Ryan or Jack Nicholson?
Billy Madison: Jack Nicholson now, or 1974?
Frank: '74.
Billy Madison: Meg Ryan.

Here's another great back-and-forth from Josey Wales. The more I see that film, the more amazed I am that it got the reception it did at the time.

 

<p style="margin-left:40px;"><b>Josey:</b> You be Ten Bears?


<p style="margin-left:40px;">
<b>Ten Bears:</b> I am Ten Bears.


<p style="margin-left:40px;">
<b>Josey: (spits tobacco)</b> I'm Josey Wales.


<p style="margin-left:40px;">
<b>Ten Bears:</b> I have heard. You're the Gray Rider. You would not make peace with the Blue Coats. You may go in peace.


<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

<p style="margin-left:40px;"><b>Josey:</b> I reckon not. Got nowhere to go.


<p style="margin-left:40px;">
<b>Ten Bears:</b> Then you will die.


<p style="margin-left:40px;">
<b>Josey:</b> I came here to die with you. Or live with you. Dying ain't so hard for men like you and me, it's living that's hard; when all you ever cared about has been butchered or raped. Governments don't live together, people live together. With governments you don't always get a fair word or a fair fight. Well I've come here to give you either one, or get either one from you. I came here like this so you'll know my word of death is true. And that my word of life is then true. The bear lives here, the wolf, the antelope, the Comanche. And so will we. Now, we'll only hunt what we need to live on, same as the Comanche does. And every spring when the grass turns green and the Comanche moves north, he can rest here in peace, butcher some of our cattle and jerk beef for the journey. The sign of the Comanche, that will be on our lodge. That's my word of life.


<p style="margin-left:40px;">
<b>Ten Bears:</b> And your word of death?


<p style="margin-left:40px;">
<b>Josey:</b> It's here in my pistols, there in your rifles. I'm here for either one.


<p style="margin-left:40px;">
<b>Ten Bears:</b> These things you say we will have, we already have.


<p style="margin-left:40px;">
<b>Josey:</b> That's true. I ain't promising you nothing extra. I'm just giving you life and you're giving me life. And I'm saying that men can live together without butchering one another.


<p style="margin-left:40px;">
<b>Ten Bears:</b> It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double-tongues. There is iron in your word of death for all Comanche to see. And so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron, it must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life. <b>(he takes his knife and cuts his hand. Josey does the same and they grasp each others hand.)</b> So shall it be.

LOL, that whole sequence is intense.

 

I also liked, "Our operation is small, but there's alot of room for aggressive expansion"

 

I honestly thought that that movie was gonna be weak when it first came out.  Man how I was wrong.  Anytime it's on TV I can't help but watch the entire thing.  
I'd say, the entire script for Blazing Saddles.

Good one.  I listed another byte from that film earlier in the thread.    

 

Another classic Eastwood moment from Fistful....
