This isn't really a movie but I think it's got some of the best writing on television so that's good enough for me. Plus I think this quote kinda helps describe the purpose of astology. Bottom line is, even if you see 'em coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really. But it does. So what are we, helpless? Puppets? No. The big moments are gonna come. You can't help that. It's what you do afterwards that counts. That's when you find out who you are. You'll see what I mean.-Whistler from Buffy

One more, this one kinda makes me laugh  Giles: You mean life? Buffy: Yeah. Does it get easy? Giles: What do you want me to say? Buffy: Lie to me. Giles: Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after. Buffy: Liar.

"Gentlemen! You can't fight in here! This is the War Room!" -President Merkin Muffley, "Dr. Strangelove, or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb" ---------- Everett: "Baptism! You two 're just dumber'n a bag uh hammers." -- Delmer: "Say, I haven't seen a house out here for miles...what're you doin' out in the middle uh nowhere?" Tommy: "Well, I had to be at that there crossroads las' midnight - sell my soul to the devil..." Everett: "Well, ain't it a small world, spirit'lly speaking - Pete and Delmer just been baptized and saved. I guess I'm the only one that remains unaffiliated." -"O Brother, Where Art Thou?" ---------- "That's the day I realized that there was this entire life behind things, and this incredibly benevolent force that wanted me to know that there was no reason to be afraid. Ever. (...) Sometimes there's so much...Beauty...in the world, I feel like I can't take it. And my heart...is just going to cave in." -Ricky -- "I had always heard your entire life flashes before your eyes the second before you die. First of all, that one second isn't a second at all - it stretches on forever like an ocean of time. (...) I guess I could be pretty ****** -off about what happened to me, but it's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst - and then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold onto it. And then it flows through me like rain, and I can't feel anything but Gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life." -Lester Burnham, "American Beauty" ---------- ...and then the entire movie "Brazil"...Corri IP: Logged |

Corri, your 'O Brother Where Art Thou?' quotes cracked me up! I had totally forgotten about that movie. So here's a few more:Pete: I always wondered. What's the devil look like? Everett: Well, of course there are all manner of lesser imps and demons, Pete. But the great Satan hisself is red and scaly with a bifurcated tail and he carries a hay fork. ***************** Delmar: Can't you see it, Everett? Them sirens did this to Pete. They loved him up, and turned him into a...horny toad. ***************** "This stew's awful good." "Think so? I slaughtered this horse last Tuesday. I'm afraid she's startin' to turn." ***************** "My hair!" *****************  IP: Logged |

Sineya, that first quote is AWESOME!  "My darling girl, when are you going to realize that being normal is not a virtue, rather it denotes a lack of courage?" "decided tonight to let go of an issue have been wrestling with - just not worth the energy as decided the people who have caused me pain have to live with their own crap - which in a way would take heaps of energy to keep up." ~State of Grace  ------------------ To fall in Love, is to rise. . . . ~Upendra IP: Logged |

"The most important thing I can add from my own observations is this: Knowing it started from unremarkable circumstances should be a comfort to us all. Because it proves that you don't need much to change the entire world for the better. You can start with the most ordinary ingredients.

"I will find you. No matter how long it takes, no matter how far, I will find you." The Last of the Mohicansbtw. I remember reading the book in the ripe konowledgable age of nine and I thought that most of characters behaved totally unnaturally. So I was quite pleased with this adaptation.

(Katie is played by Michele Pfieffer and Ben is played by Bruce Willis) KATIE I think we should go to Chow Fun's. Ben stops. BEN Chow Fun's? I thought we agreed we couldn't really talk at Chow Fun's. Katie looking deep into his eyes, responds: KATIE I know. Ben crosses over to her. BEN What are you saying? KATIE (with resolve) I'm saying Chow Fun's. BEN Are you saying Chow Fun's because you don't want to face telling the kids? Because if that's why you're saying Chow Fun's, don't say Chow Fun's. KATIE That's not why I'm saying Chow Fun's. I'm saying Chow Fun's because we're an "us". There's a history and histories don't happen overnight. In Mesopotamia or Ancient Troy or somewhere back there, there were cities built on top of other cities, but I don't want to build another city. I like this city. I know where we keep the Bactine, and what kind of mood you're in when you wake up by which eyebrow is higher. And you always know that I'm a little quiet in the morning and compensate accordingly. That's a dance you perfect over time. And it's hard, it's much harder than I thought it would be, but there's more good than bad. And you don't just give up. And it's not for the sake of the children, but they're great kids aren't they? And we made them - I mean think about that - there were no people there and then there were people - two of them. And they grew. And I won't be able to say to some stranger, "Josh has your hands" or "Remember how Erin threw up at the Lincoln Memorial?" So what if that stranger listens to me? I mean, Lucas Adler listens but then he always says "between you and I" and it should be "between you and me" because "between" is a preposition. And it's not that there's not a charming part about you not remembering the washerfluid - which I don't understand why you can't - but that's not ultimately important. I'll try to remember that those things can be mildly endearing at times and really not worth not having sex over. And I'll try to relax. I mean is it the end of the world to have sex when you don't totally feel like it? There are all kinds of sex, aren't there? Comfort sex, tender sex, relief sex, 'I'm not in the mood, but you are" sex...And let's face it, anybody is going to have traits that get on your nerves, why shouldn't it be your annoying traits? I'm no day at the beach, but I do have a good sense of direction so at least I can find the beach, but that's not a criticism of you, it's just a strength of mine. And you're a good friend and good friends are hard to find. Charlotte in "Charlotte's Web" said that and I love the way you read that to Erin - when you take on the voice of Wilbur the pig with such commitment even when you're bone tired. It speaks volumes about character. And ultimately isn't that what it comes down to? What a person's made of at the end of the day? Because that pith helmet girl is still in here - "BEE-BOO, BEE-BOO!" And I didn't even know she existed until I met you. And if you leave, I may never see her again - even though I said at times you beat her out of me - Isn't that the paradox? Haven't we hit the essential paradox? Give and take, push and pull, yin and yang, the best of times, the worst of times. I think Dickens said it best. It's the Jack Sprat of it, he could eat no fat, his wife could eat no lean, but that doesn't really apply here. Does it? I mean I guess what I'm trying to say is - I'm saying Chow Fun's because I love you." One of my absolute favorite movies, Story Of Us. IP: Logged |

Wooderson: Say, man, you got a joint? Mitch: No, not on me man. Wooderson: It'd be a lot cooler if you did. Wooderson: The older you get the more rules they are going to try and get you to follow. You just gotta keep on livin man! L-I-V-I-N!
Wooderson: That's what I like about these high school girls, I keep getting older, they stay the same age. Cynthia: I'd like to quit thinking of the present, like right now, as some minor, insignificant preamble to somethin' else. Ms. Ginny Stroud: Okay guys, one more thing, this summer when you're being inundated with all this American bicentennial Fourth Of July brouhaha, don't forget what you're celebrating, and that's the fact that a bunch of slave-owning, aristocratic, white males didn't want to pay their taxes. --Dazed and Confused Dewey Finn: Ok, here's the deal. I have a hangover. Who knows what that means? Frankie: Doesn't that mean you're drunk? Dewey Finn: No. It means I was drunk yesterday. Freddy: It means you're an alcoholic. Dewey Finn: Wrong. Freddy: You wouldn't come to work with a hangover unless you were an alcoholic. Dude, you got a disease! Dewey Finn: Hmmm... hmmm... What's your name? Freddy: Freddy Jones. Dewey Finn: Ok, Freddy Jones, shut up! Dewey Finn: Give up, just quit, because in this life, you can't win. Yeah, you can try, but in the end you're just gonna lose, big time, because the world is run by the Man. The Man, oh, you don't know the Man. He's everywhere. In the White House... down the hall... Ms. Mullins, she's the Man. And the Man ruined the ozone, he's burning down the Amazon, and he kidnapped Shamu and put her in a chlorine tank! And there used to be a way to stick it to the Man. It was called rock 'n roll, but guess what, oh no, the Man ruined that, too, with a little thing called MTV! So don't waste your time trying to make anything cool or pure or awesome 'cause the Man is just gonna call you a fat washed up loser and crush your soul. So do yourselves a favor and just GIVE UP! --School of Rock This is too fun.... I am the princess of movie trivia... someone stop me... Ghani IP: Logged |
