"If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?" ~ Anton Chigurh, No Country For Old Men
From Spaceballs (1988), lots of great quotes from this one but these are two of my favourites. I'm a sucker for stupid comedies obviously
Yogurt: "Merchandising, merchandising, where the real money from the movie is made. Spaceballs-the T-shirt, Spaceballs-the Coloring Book, Spaceballs-the Lunch box, Spaceballs-the Breakfast Cereal, Spaceballs-the Flame Thrower..{turns it on}..The kids love that one." Dark Helmet: Before you die there is something you should know about us, Lone Star. Lone Starr: What? Dark Helmet: I am your father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate. Lone Starr: What's that make us? Dark Helmet: Absolutely nothing! Which is what you are about to become.
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite. Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment. Quote:Some people deserve hell. I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong. RE: Best movie quotes

Rosencrantz And Guildenstern Are Dead. Every line from Tom Stoppard's magnificent octopus is quote gold - here are some of my favourites:
Quote:Guildenstern: I think I have it. A man talking sense to himself is no madder than a man talking nonsense not to himself. Quote:Rosencrantz: Another curious scientific phenomenon is the fact that the fingernails grow after death. As does the beard. Quote:The Player: The old man thinks he's in love with his daughter. Quote:Guildenstern: What's the first thing you remember? And of course the soliloquy: Quote:Rosencrantz: Whatever became of the moment when one first knew about death? There must have been one; a moment. In childhood. When it first occured to you that you don't go on forever. Must have been shattering. Stamped into one's memory. And yet... I can't remember it. It never occured to me at all. We must be born with an intuition of mortality. Before we know the word for it. Before we know that there are words. Out we come, bloodied and squawling, with the knowledge that for all the points of the compass, there's only one direction. And time is its only measure.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
John Hammond: All major theme parks have delays. When they opened Disneyland in 1956, nothing worked!
Ian Malcolm: Yeah, but, John, if The Pirates of the Caribbean breaks down, the pirates don't eat the tourists. -Jurassic Park
Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.
Two great tough guy quotes:
'I'm thirty years older than you are. I had my back broke once, and my hip twice. And on my worst day I could STILL beat the hell out of you.' - John Wayne, 'The Cowboys' 'Have you ever tried to pick up your teeth with broken fingers? - Stephen Rea, 'The Crying Game' Boru
‘I can’t be having with this.’ - Esmeralda Weatherwax
I think this was off camera, but it's a great quote: “Life's hard. It's even harder when you're stupid.” ― John Wayne
Another nice LotR one!
Bilbo Baggins Wrote:I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.
One of my favourites: How a prayer should be:
Conan: "Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!" Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni: "You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???"
K-Pax
Prot: I will admit the possibility that I am Robert Porter, if you will admit the possibility that I am from K-PAX. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a beam of light to catch. Dr. Mark Powell: What would you say if I told you I think you're as human as I am? Prot: I would say you're in need of a thorazine drip, Doctor. Titanic Rose It's been 84 years, and I can still smell the fresh paint. The china had never been used. The sheets had never been slept in. Titanic was called the Ship of Dreams, and it was. It really was. Rose I feel like I'm standing in the middle of a crowded room, screaming at the top of my lungs, and no one even looks up?. |
