Movie Quotes

 I absolutely love movies!!!  There are a few movies that I could watch again and again and again.  Here are a few of my favorite movies and a few of my favorite quotes from those movies.
Pulp Fiction

Vincent: Want some bacon?
Jules: No man, I don't eat pork.
Vincent: Are you Jewish?
Jules: Nah, I ain't Jewish, I just don't dig on no swine, that's all.
Vincent: Why not?
Jules: Pigs are filthy animals.  I don't eat filthy animals.
Vincent: Bacon tastes gooood.  Pork chops taste gooood.
Jules: Hey, sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie, but I'll never know 'cause I wouldn't eat the filthy motherfucker.  Pigs, sleep and root in shit.  That's a filthy animal.  I ain't eating nothin' that ain't got sense enough to disregard it's own feces.
Vincent: How about a dog? Dog eats it's own feces. 
Jules: I don't eat dog either.
Vincent: Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal?
Jules: I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy, but they're definitely dirty.  But a dog's got personality.  Personality goes a long way.
Vincent: Ah, so by that rationale, if a pig had a better personality, he would cease to be a filthy animal. Is that true?
Jules: Well we'd have to be talkin' about one charming motherfuckin' pig. I mean he'd have to be ten time more charmin' than that Arnold on Green Acres, you know what I'm sayin'?


Jules: Normally, both you asses would be dead as fucking fried chicken, but you happened to pull this shit while I'm in a transitional period so I don't wanna kill you, I wanna help you.  But I can't give you this case, it don't belong to me.  Besides, I've already been through too much shit this morning over this case to hand it over to your dumb ass.
Jules: The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.  Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.  And you will know my name is the Lord why I lay my vengeance upon thee.


[while  cleaning their bloody hands]
Jules: Fuck, nigga, what the fuck did you do to his towel?
Vincent: I was dryin' my hands.
Jules: You're supposed to wash 'em first!
Vincent: You watched me wash 'em.
Jules: I watched you get 'em wet.
Vincent: I was washing 'em.  But this shit's hard to get off.  Maybe if I had Lava or something, I coulda done a better job.
Jules: I used the same fuckin' soap you did and when I got finished, the towel didn't look like no goddamn Maxi-Pad! 
 The Matrix Reloaded
The Merovingian: I love French wine, like I love the French language. I have sampled every language, French is my favorite. Fantastic language. Especially to curse with. Nom de dieu de putain de bordel de merde de saloperie de connard d'enculer ta mère. It's like wiping your arse with silk. I love it.

The Merovingian:   Choice is an illusion created between those with power and those without.
Snatch

 Brick Top: Do you know what "nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible cunt... me.

 Bullet Tooth Tony: So, you are obviously the big dick. The men on the side of ya are your balls. Now there are two types of balls. There are big brave balls, and there are little mincey faggot balls.
Vinny: These are your last words, so make them a prayer.
Bullet Tooth Tony: Now, dicks have drive and clarity of vision, but they are not clever. They smell pussy and they want a piece of the action. And you thought you smelled some good old pussy, and have brought your two little mincey faggot balls along for a good old time. But you've got your parties muddled up. There's no pussy here, just a dose that'll make you wish you were born a woman. Like a prick, you are having second thoughts. You are shrinking, and your two little balls are shrinking with you. And the fact that you've got "Replica" written down the side of your guns...
[Zoom in on the side of Sol's gun, which indeed has "REPLICA" etched on the side; zoom out, as they sneak peeks at the sides of their guns]
Bullet Tooth Tony: And the fact that I've got "Desert Eagle point five O"...
[Withdraws his gun and puts it on the table]
Bullet Tooth Tony: Written down the side of mine...
[They look, zoom in on the side of his gun, which indeed has "DESERT EAGLE .50" etched on the side]
Bullet Tooth Tony: Should precipitate your balls into shrinking, along with your presence. Now... Fuck off!


Policeman: So, what you doin here?
Turkish: I'm taking the dog for a walk. What's the problem?
Policeman: What's in the car?
Turkish: Seats and a steering wheel.


 Franky Four Fingers: So the Biblical scholars mis-translated the Hebrew word for "young woman" into the Greek word for "virgin," which was a pretty easy mistake to make, since there is only a subtle difference in the spelling. But back then it was the "virgin" that caught people's attention. It's not every day a virgin conceives and bears a son. So you keep that for a couple of hundred years, and the next thing you know, you have the Holy Catholic church.




 Avi: Should I call you Bullet? Tooth?
Bullet Tooth Tony: You can call me Susan if it makes you happy.


 Brick Top: In the quiet words of the Virgin Mary... come again?




Bullet Tooth Tony: I want to know who blagged Brick-Top's bookies.
Mullet: Do me a favor, Tony!
Bullet Tooth Tony: I will do you a favor, Mullet.  I'll not get out of this car and bash the living fuck out of you in front of all your girlfriends.
[Mullet hunkers down to the car window]
Mullet: Got to make it worth by while, mate. Jesus, Tony, you know that...
[Tony seizes his tie and rolls up the window, wedging Mullet's head in it]
Bullet Tooth Tony: Comfortable, Mullet? It seems sadly ironic  that it's that tie that's got you into this pickle. Now you just take all the time you want.
[He starts the car forward]
Mullet: What the fuck are you doing, Tony?
Bullet Tooth Tony: I'm driving down the street with your head stuck in my window.  What do you think I'm doing, you pen-ass?
Mullet: Slow down, Tony.
Bullet Tooth Tony: [sniffs] You been using dogshit for toothpaste, Mullet?
Mullet: Slow down, Tony! Slow down, Tony!
Bullet Tooth Tony: I don't think I'll slow down.  I think I'll speed up.  You can play some music if you like.
[He turns on the radio; Madonna's "Lucky Star" is playing]
Bullet Tooth Tony: Oh, I love this track.
Mullet: I think....
Bullet Tooth Tony: Yes, Mullet?
Mullet: I think it's two black guys, in a pawn shop on Smith Street.
Bullet Tooth Tony: You better not be telling me porky pies.
Mullet: I'm fucking telling you, it's two black guys who work off a pawn shop in fucking Smith Street!
Avi: That's very effective, Tony.  It's not too subtle, but effective.
[Tony accelerates and turns toward Smith Street]
Avi: Are we taking him with us?
[Tony rolls down the window, releasing Mullet's head and dumping him on the roadside]
  
These three movies crack me up whenever I see them.  Tell me, what movies do you find memorable and/or what are some of your favorite quotes?!?

    Sophia: All my life I had to fight. I had to fight my daddy. I had to fight my uncles. I had to fight my brothers. A girl child ain't safe in a family of men, but I ain't never thought I'd have to fight in my own house!

    Boyz in the hood-

    Furious Styles: Any fool with a dick can make a baby, but only a real man can raise his children.

    Love Jones-

    Nina Mosley: You always want what you want when you want it. Why is everything so urgent with you?

    Darius Lovehall: Let me tell you somethin'. This here, right now, at this very moment, is all that matters to me. I love you. That's urgent like a motherfucker.

  3. Pulp Fiction has some of the best conversational dialogue in the history of filmdom. Easily, in my top five.



    Boogie Night---

    Dirk: Look, man, all we need is the tapes, all right?
    Record Producer: No, you don't get the tapes until you've paid.
    Dirk: In our situation, that doesn't make any f**king sense.
    Reed Rothchild: Look, we can not pay for the tapes, unless we take the tapes to the record company, and get paid.
    Dirk: Hello? Exactly.
    Record Producer: I understand, What we have here is a catch 22.
    Dirk: What the fuck is a catch 22? All I know is, I'm about to kick some fucking ass! lol


    The Godfather Part II

    Fredo: “Mike! You do not come to Las Vegas and talk to a man like Moe Green like THAT!”

    Michael: “Fredo.. you’re my older brother and I love you. But don’t ever take sides with anyone against the family again…

    ever…”


    Chameleon Street---

    Douglass Street: It amazes me that whites avidly seek after all the accoutrements of black style. You pickle your bodies in gallons of tanning lotion, you broil your pale flesh brown in the tanning spas at great expense and all the while maintaining such a marvelous contempt for black people. You wily Caucasians.

  4. From Sunset Blvd:
    Norma Desmond: Don't be silly.
    [hands Joe a present]
    Norma Desmond: Here, I was going to give it to you at midnight.
    Joe Gillis: Norma, I can't take it, you've bought me enough.
    Norma Desmond: Shut up, I'm rich! I'm richer than all this new Hollywood trash! I've got a million dollars.
    Joe Gillis: Keep it.
    Norma Desmond: Own three blocks downtown, I've got oil in Bakersfield, pumping, *pumping*, pumping! What's it for but to buy us anything we want!
    Joe Gillis: Cut out that "us" business!
    Norma Desmond: What's the matter with you?
    Joe Gillis: What right do you have to take me for granted?
    Norma Desmond: What right? Do you want me to tell you?
    Joe Gillis: Has it ever occurred to you that I may have a life of my own? That there may be some girl I'm crazy about?
    Norma Desmond: Who? Some car hop, or dress extra?
    Joe Gillis: What I'm trying to say is that I'm all wrong for you. You want a Valentino, somebody with polo ponies, a big shot!
    Norma Desmond: What you're trying to say is that you don't want me to love you. Say it. Say it!
    [slaps him hard across the face]


    From Naked Lunch
    Tom Frost: They say you murdered your wife. Is that true?
    Bill Lee: Who told you that?
    Tom Frost: Word gets around.
    Bill Lee: It wasn't murder. It was an accident.
    Tom Frost: There are no accidents. For example, I've been killing my own wife slowly over a period of years.
    Bill Lee: What?
    Tom Frost: Well, not intentionally. I mean, on the level of conscious intention, it's insane, monstrous.
    Bill Lee: But you do consciously know it. You just said it. We're discussing it.
    Tom Frost: Not consciously. This is all happening telepathically, non-consciously.
    Bill Lee: What do you mean?
    Tom Frost: If you look carefully at my lips, you'll realize that I'm actually saying something else. I'm not actually telling you about the several ways I'm gradually murdering Joan.

    From Mommie Dearest
    Joan Crawford- Why can't you give me the respect that I'm entitled to? Why can't you treat me like I would be treated by any stranger on the street?

    Christina Crawford-Because I am NOT one of your fans.


    From Waiting to Exhale
    Gloria: Would you like to have dinner with us tonight? It's just leftovers. Collard greens and corn bread, some candied yams, a little potato salad, fried chicken, peach cobbler and a few slices of ham.
    Marvin: I would love to, but I've got so much to do around here. Maybe some other time.
    Gloria: To be honest, I don't have no business eating any of it as big as I am.
    Marvin: My wife was a big woman too. I like a woman with some meat on her bones.


    From Imitation of Life
    Delilah Johnson: What's my baby want?
    Peola Johnson, Age 19: I want to be white, like I look.

  5. Fellow cinemaphile in the building...

    Key Largo

    Gangster Eddie G. Robinson taunts washed-up moll, Claire Trevor, an alcoholic former showgirl. He demands her to sing for him & he’ll give her a drink. Desperate for it, she sings. It’s not great, but she puts her whole drunken heart into it, & it’s humiliating. Afterward, she asks for her drink, & Eddie G says:

    "Naw… you don’t get a drink-- you were rotten!”


    Ghost

    Oda Mae Brown: I know you don't think I'm giving this 4 million dollars to a bunch of nuns!

    Sam: Think of it this way, you'll go to Heaven.

    Oda Mae Brown: I don't want to go to Heaven, I want to go to the bank and cash a GODDAMN CHECK!

    Dangerous Liaisons: (well-deserved Oscar, Best Screenplay)

    Madame de Rosemonde: I'm sorry to say this, but, those who are most worthy of love are never made happy by it.

    Madame Marie de Tourvel: But, why? Why should that be?

    de Rosemonde: Do you still think men love the way we do? No... men enjoy the happiness they feel. We can only enjoy the happiness we give. They are not capable of devoting themselves exclusively to one person. So to hope to be made happy by love is a certain cause of grief.

    Later-

    Madame Marie de Tourvel: I'm beginning to think you may have planned the whole exercise.

    Vicomte de Valmont: I had no idea you were staying here! Not that it would have disturbed me in the slightest if I had known. You see, until I met you, I had only ever experienced desire. Love, never.

    Madame: That's enough.

    De Valmont: No, no, you made an accusation and you must allow me the opportunity to defend myself! Now, I'm not going to deny that I was aware of your beauty. But the point is, this has nothing to do with your beauty. As I got to know you, I began to realize that beauty was the least of your qualities. I became fascinated by your goodness. I was drawn in by it. I didn't understand what was happening to me. And it was only when I began to feel actual, physical pain every time you left the room that it finally dawned on me: I was in love, for the first time in my life. I knew it was hopeless, but that didn't matter to me. And it's not that I want to have you. All I want is to deserve you. Tell me what to do. Show me how to behave. I'll do anything you say.


    Longtime Companion:

    Bartender: What do you want?
    John: I'll have the sweat of that hairy man's brow, thank you.


    Love Jones:


    Hollywood: I don't need poetry to get women.

    Sheila Downes: No, you need a personality to get women.

    Savon Garrison: Try a breath mint and a visa.


    The Best Man:

    Quentin: You know how many single honeys be at weddin's? It's about to be a ho-asis in that baby, honey.


    From Ray:

    Aretha Robinson ( her son Ray Charles): Always remember your promise to me. Never let nobody or nothing turn you into no cripple.

    (Later)

    Fathead Newman: This ain't no weed, Ray, & we ain't snorting no bitch. This is boy! Boy'll make your ass null & void.

    Ray Charles: Null & void, just like my life.


    Eve’s Bayou


    Mozelle Batiste Delacroix:

    Life is filled with goodbyes, Eve, a million goodbyes, and it hurts every time. Sometimes, I feel like I've lost so much, I have to find new things to lose. All I know is, there must be a divine point to it all, and it's just over my head. That when we die, it will all come clear. And then we'll say, "So that was the damn point." And sometimes, I think there's no point at all, and maybe that's the point. All I know is most people's lives are a great disappointment to them and no one leaves this earth without feeling terrible pain. And if there is no divine explanation at the end of it all, well... that's sad.



    BTW: Tarantino is waaay to in love w/ the n-word. Uses it constantly in his screenplays. He either needs his consciousness raised, or else a swift azz-kickin! Just sayin'.

    1. Gorgeous Puddin The Five Heartbeats is a great movie, I remember that particular scene as well.

      When I first saw Pulp Fiction, I watched in On Demand from my local cable company, that was years and years ago. I was shocked by the language, only because my children were really young and I didn't want them to hear anything like that. I sent them to their rooms because the language was just awful. I was offended again and again the first time I saw it, but I came to appreciate Quentin Tarantino the more I watched it.

    Suyuan: That bad crab, only you tried to take it. Everybody else want best quality. You, your thinking different. Waverly took best-quality crab. You took worst, because you have best-quality heart. You have style no one can teach. Must be born this way. I see you.

    June (Age 9): You want me to be someone I'm not. I'll never be the kind of daughter that you want me to be.
    Suyuan: Only two kinds of daughter: obedient or follow-own-mind. Only one kind of daughter could live in this house: obedient kind.
    June (Age 9): Then I wish I wasn't your daughter. I wish you weren't my mom.
    Suyuan: Too late to change this.

    -----------------------------------
    Ying Ying: All around this house I see the signs. My daughter looks but she does not see. This is a house that will break into pieces. It's not too late. All my pains, my regrets, I will gather them together. My daughter will hear me calling, even though I've said no words. She will climb the stairs to find me. She will be scared because at first her eyes will see nothing. She will feel in her heart this place where she hides her fears. She will know I am waiting like a tiger in the trees, now ready to leap out and cut her spirit loose.
    Ying Ying: Losing him does not matter. It is you who will be found - and cherished.

    1. I sat through The Joy Luck Club with the wife. I must say that I found it entertaining. The other two movies you mentioned I've never seen.

  14. When I first read this post, I understood where you were coming from, but couldn't think of a movie that I liked so many of the lines from. Then it hit me today (3 days after reading this post) that Rock n Rolla - Guy Ritchie movie has some really good lines. If, you've not seen it and you can understand British humour/slang etc, you'll enjoy it. The Archie slap is classic.

    2. I suppose that's the primary difference in being in like and being in love Anna Renee. It's really hard to cut off the person that's you're truly in love with.

    3. @Reggie, I guess so, boo.

      But the menz got to know that there's an expiration date on love on hold. That thing will spoil if you leave it unattended too long.

      Not that I speak from experience or anything.

  18. Coming late to the party but here's one of my all time favorite...
    Pulp Fiction[after Butch saves Marsellus from rapists]

    Butch: You okay?
    Marsellus: Naw man. I'm pretty fuckin' far from okay.
    Butch: What now?
    Marsellus: What now? Let me tell you what now. I'ma call a coupla hard, pipe-hittin' niggers, who'll go to work on the homes here with a pair of pliers and a blow torch. You hear me talkin', hillbilly boy? I ain't through with you by a damn sight. I'ma get medieval on your ass.
    Butch: I meant what now between me and you?
    Marsellus: Oh, that what now. I tell you what now between me and you. There is no me and you. Not no more.

    Butch: So we cool?
    Marsellus: Yeah, we cool. Two things. Don't tell nobody about this. This shit is between me, you, and Mr. Soon-To-Be-Living-The-Rest-of-His-Short-Ass-Life-In-Agonizing-Pain Rapist here. It ain't nobody else's business. Two: you leave town tonight, right now. And when you're gone, you stay gone, or you be gone. You lost all your L.A. privileges. Deal?
    Butch: Deal.
    Marsellus: Get your ass out of here.

    The Godfather has just too many for me to name. Anything from that movie is a favorite of mine. That is the one movie I can watch forever and never get tired of. I read the book when I was in high school. Awesome.

  19. That scene from Pulp Fiction is an absolute classic. I love the movie, that scene definitely stands out.

  20. I need to get my movie quote game up, and quick. I hardly know any of these quotes. But I can quote others such as A Bronx Tale, Carlito's Way and New Jack City all day, every day.

  21. There's too many movies with too many good lines for me to ever pick one over the other. So the cliche one would be where Clark Gable gets his nuts back and says at the end of GWTW:

    "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn."

    It sums up the entire picture for me.

    Although there is the that verbal exchange in the diner that sets the tone for Reservoir Dogs that always gets me.

    Mr. Pink: Hey, why am I Mr. Pink?
    Joe: Because you're a faggot.
    Mr. Pink: Why can't we pick our own colors?
    Joe: No way, no way. Tried it once, doesn't work. You got four guys all fighting over who's gonna be Mr. Black, but they don't know each other, so nobody wants to back down. No way. I pick. You're Mr. Pink. Be thankful you're not Mr. Yellow.
    Mr. Brown: Yeah, but Mr. Brown is a little too close to Mr. Shit.
    Mr. Pink: Mr. Pink sounds like Mr. Pussy. How 'bout if I'm Mr. Purple? That sounds good to me. I'll be Mr. Purple.
    Joe: You're not Mr. Purple. Some guy on some other job is Mr. Purple. You're Mr. Pink.

    1. I remember laughing my ass off when I first heard that Reservoir Dogs dialogue.

      That GWTW's quote is the movie for me as well.

  22. Reggie this is a fantastic post!!! It makes me want to watch each movie mentioned just to get to the quoted dialogue! And I'm not even a movie buff like that.

      Mickey: That depends.
      Turkish: On what?
      Mickey: On you buying this caravan. Not the rouge one, the rose.
      Turkish: It's not the same caravan.
      Mickey: It's not the same fight.
      Turkish: It's twice the fucking size of the last one.
      Mickey: Turkish, the fight is twice the size. And me ma still needs a caravan. I like to look after me ma. It's a fair deal. Take it.
      Turkish: Mickey, you're lucky we aren't worm food after your last performance. Buying a tart's mobile palace is a little fucking rich.
      [Realizes his mistake]
      Turkish: I wasn't calling your mum a tart. I just meant...

      Mickey: [starts talking incoherently] I want the hector two roof lights, with the discover cushions and the matching side stripe caravan.
      Mickey: Right. And she's terrible partial to the periwinkle blue, boys. Have I made myself clear, lads?
      Turkish: Yeah, that's perfectly clear, Mickey. Just give me one minute to confer with my colleague.

  29. Definitely believe that which you stated. Your favorite justification seemed to be on the internet the easiest thing to be aware of.
    I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while people consider worries that
    they just do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon
    the top and also defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people can take
    a signal. Will likely be back to get more.

  30. The Wolf Pack were able to pick up one point in the young season with the
    shootout loss. When I was a child I always had a curiousity about what
    my little guy got into while I was away with my family out of the house.
    Increased consumption of hormone-infused foods including most.
