10 OF MY FAVORITE FILM QUOTES

“I haven’t been fucked like that since grade school.” Marla Singer (Helena Bonham Carter)/Fight Club

“In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed—but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.” Harry Lime (Orson Wells)/The Third Man

“I never thought I'd live to see eighteen. Isn't that dumb? Every day I look in the mirror and say "What? You still here?" Jim Stark (James Dean)/Rebel Without A Cause

“Ladies and gentleman, this is your stewardess speaking. We regret any inconvenience the sudden cabin movement might have caused. This is due to periodic air pockets we encountered. There's no reason to be alarmed and we hope you enjoy the rest of your flight. By the way, is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane?” Elaine (Julie Hagerty)/Airplane!

“It's funny how the colors of the real world only seem really real when you viddy them on the screen.” Alex de Large (Malcolm McDowell/A Clockwork Orange

“Loneliness has followed me my whole life. Everywhere. In bars, in cars, sidewalks, stores, everywhere. There's no escape. I'm God's lonely man.” Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro)/Taxi Driver

“I’m American, honey. Our names don’t mean shit.” Butch Cooliage (Bruce Willis)/Pulp Fiction

“There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.” Raoul Duke (Johnny Depp)/Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

“Who is Keyser Soze? He is supposed to be Turkish. Some say his father was German. Nobody believed he was real. Nobody ever saw him or knew anybody that ever worked directly for him, but to hear Kobayashi tell it, anybody could have worked for Soze. You never knew. That was his power. The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist.” Verbal (Kevin Spacey)/The Usual Suspects

“It's a hundred and six miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses. Elwood Blues (Dan Aykroyd)/The Blues Brothers
