"Don't let the bastards grind you down!" Albert Finney from "Saturday Night and Sunday Morning." I often say this to my grown-up kids when their bosses are giving them a hard time over some petty issue.

I recall that line being on one of the songs on U2's "Achtung Baby". That bastage, Bono!

Ash from Army of Darkness is the king of one liners.

"First you want to kill me, now you want to kiss me......Blow."

" T*** and A****, T*** and A****, T*** and A***!!!
Bloody-blue, bloody-blue, bloody-blue!!! "

Jim Belushi(Lithgow) in "About Last Night"

(and the ironic thing is that I've never been a misogynist or a ladies man.
Must be the old "living vicariuosly..." thing)

Ash, Army Of Darkness

"That was just pillow talk, baby"

"I want you to hit me as hard as you can." - Tyler Durden (Fight Club)

Theres another one from that movie:

"Sport f***ing!" Tyler Durden

Im going to punch you in the ovaries. Straight shot right to the baby makers.


-Anchorman

"So who are you and what were you before, what did you think and what did you do?"

Casablanca

As with all great lines, its less the words than the delivery:

"I Wanna F u c k!" Sarah Michelle Gellar in Cruel Intentions

Ali G Indahouse - That's a very sexist way to talk about these bitches!

"Will it hurt?" Christopher Eccelston as Derek Bentley just before he was to be hanged in the docudrama "Let Him Have It." This was one of the biggest miscarriages of justice Britain has ever seen and capital punishment was soon abolished in the U.K. due mostly to this case!

Im going to punch you in the ovaries. Straight shot right to the baby makers.


-Anchorman

Laugh... Only Will could say that and make it funny!


I like lamp..... I like lamp..... I like window..... Anchorman

"The good thing about hitmen......it don't matter what you do to them...you don't feel bad."


Sin City

"I thought Mr. Clutter was a very nice gentleman. I thought so right up to the time I cut his throat." Perry Smith (Robert Blake) in the docudrama "In Cold Blood." (This is a direct quote from the police tape recorded interview and Smith says it in a very matter-of -fact way.)
As he is about to hanged, Smith tells the guards he needs to use the toilet. Smith: When you hit the end of the rope, your muscles lose control. I'm afraid
I'll mess myself!
Guard:It's nothing to be ashamed of. They all do it!

"You call that a knife? THIS is a knife."

Crocodile Dundee

" you think you used enough dynamite thier Butch " Paul Newman
" BAM, another notch" Emeril
" Don't forget the Canolli " Godfather
" Do you want to pet my pussy" Diane Keaton, " Sure but let's get rid of the cat" Johnny Carson

"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness." opening line to "A Tale of Two Cities." (sounds like Dickens could be talking about today's world instead of the French Revolution!)

"It's a far, far better better thing that I do than I have ever done. It's a far, far better rest I go to than I've ever known!" Sydney Carton (Ronald Colman) just before he went to the guillotine.
BTW, Dr.Guillotin did NOT invent the device. He just advocated its use as a "humane" way of dispatching criminals. It is generally thought to have been invented by a Dr. Louis and the machine was referred to as a louisette (named after its inventor) at the time.

As a kid growing-up in the 1950s I always knew when somebody was going to get it (die) when I heard the following:
War Movies
Bomber pilot to his crew: "Well, today is my 25th mission and tomorrow I get shipped Stateside to see my pretty wife and my newborn son!"

Farmboy with a Southern accent: "Man, you sure could grow some nice crops in this dirt." (He dies in the next scene clutching a handful of soil.)

Rookie soldier heading out on a dangerous mission. "It's my birthday today and I'm going to really celebrate when I get back."



Terrified girl to boyfriend during a storm. "What's that noise?"
Boyfriend: "Aw, it's just the storm shutters banging against the house. I'll go up to the attic and close them."
A group of armed men are tracking a dinosaur/alien creature/ homicidal maniac (take your pick) when one of them says: "I'll circle around to head him off" and leaves the group. (all the kids in the audience would start yelling at this point, "Don't Go!" "Don't Go!")
A couple are at an isolated farmhouse during a storm when the lights go out. Terrified girl: "Eeek!"
Boyfriend: "Don't worry honey, I'll just go down and check the fusebox in the basement and I'll be back before you know it." (the creepy music in the background was also a tip-off that something nasty was about to happen)

"You rush a miracle man, you get rotten miracles." - Miracle Max (The Princess Bride)

"Is it safe?"
