I’m bored again so we have…a movie quotes entry…doubt it’s intresting to anyone but me but oh well.

The American President

Andrew Shepherd: I want to buy her some flowers. That’s what men do
when they break a date.

Robin McCall: That’s not what men do. I know no men who do that.

–

Lewis: Who’re we calling, sir?

Andrew: I’m calling the organization of the United Brotherhood of It’s None of Your Damn Business, Lewis. I’ll be with you in a second.

–

President Andrew Shepherd: You want free speech? Let’s see you acknowledge a man whose words make your blood boil who is standing center stage advocating at the top of his lungs that which you would spend a lifetime opposing at the top of yours.

–

Leon Kodak: Yes sir. But it can be, sir. What you did tonight was very presidential.

President Andrew Shepherd: Leon, somewhere in Libya right now, a janitor’s working the night shift at Libyan Intelligence headquarters. He’s
going about doing his job… because he has no idea, in about an hour he’s going to die in a massive explosion. He’s just going about his job, because he has no
idea that about an hour ago I gave an order to have him killed. You’ve just seen me do the least presidential thing I do.

–

Lewis Rothschild: They don’t have a choice! Bob Rumson is the only one doing the talking! People want leadership, Mr. President, and in the absence of genuine leadership, they’ll listen to anyone who steps up to the microphone. They want leadership. They’re so thirsty for it they’ll crawl through the desert toward a mirage, and when they discover there’s no water, they’ll drink the sand.

Andrew Shepherd: Lewis, we’ve had presidents who were beloved, who couldn’t find a coherent sentence with two hands and a flashlight. People don’t drink the sand because they’re thirsty. They drink the sand because they don’t know the difference.

–

Sydney: How do you have patience for people who claim they love America, but clearly can’t stand Americans?

–

[President Shepherd watches his opponent’s campaign ad.] Andrew Shepherd: Wait, wait, here comes my favorite part.

Bob Rumson: My name is Bob Rumson, and I’m running for President!

Andrew Shepherd: Sure glad he cleared that up, ’cause those people were about to buy some Amway products!

–

President Andrew Shepherd: The symbol of your country cannot just be a flag. The symbol also has to be one of its citizens exercising his right to burn that flag in protest. Now show me that, defend that, celebrate that in your classrooms. Then you can stand up and sing about the land of the free.

–

President Shepherd: This is NOT the business of the American people!

A.J.: With all due respect, sir, the American people have a funny way of deciding on their own what is and what is not their business.

–

The Bird Cage

Albert: You know, I used to feel that way too until I found out that Alexander the Great was a fag. Talk about gays in the military!

–

Armand: So this is Hell. And there’s a crucifix in it.

–

Albert Goldman: Whatever I am, he made me! I was adorable once, young and full of hope. And now look at me! I’m this short, fat, insecure, middle-aged THING!

Armand Goldman: I made you short?

–

Dogma

Serendipity: I have issues with anyone who treats faith as a burden instead of a blessing. You people don’t celebrate your faith; you mourn it.

–

Bethany Sloane: Sex is a joke in heaven?

Metatron: The way I understand it, it’s mostly a joke down here, too.

–

Loki: Church laws are fallible because they’re created by man.

–

Serendipity: Leave it to the Catholics to destroy existence.
(Sait’s Note: No offense, I didn’t write the line)

–

The First Wives Club

Ivana Trump: Ladies, you have to be strong and independent, and remember, don’t get mad, get everything.

–

Brenda Morelli Cushman: Now, I ask you, Duarto, who’s supposed to wear that? Some anorexic teenager? Some fetus? It’s a conspiracy, I know it is! I’ve had enough. I’m leading a protest. I’m not buying another article of clothing until these designers come to their senses!

–

Independance Day

The President: “Mankind. That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can’t be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interest. Perhaps it is fate that today is the fourth of July and you will once again be fighting for our freedom. Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution, but from annihilation. We’re fighting for our right to live, to exist! And should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice, “We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We’re going to live on! We’re going to survive! Today, we celebrate our Independence Day!”

Legends of the Fall

One Stab: “Some people hear their own inner voices with great clearness and they live by what they hear. Such people become crazy, but they become legends.”

–

Men in Black

J: “Wait a minute. You just flash that thing, it erases her memory, and you just make up a new one?”

K: “A standard issue neuralyzer.”

J: “And that weak-ass story’s the best you can come up with?”

–

(To candidates rejected as MIB agents)
Zed: “Gentlemen, congratulations. You’re everything we’ve come to expect from years of government training.”

–

J: “Why the big secret? People are smart, they can handle it.”
K: “A *person* is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals and you know it.”

–

Agent K: “1500 years ago, everybody “knew” that the earth was the center of the universe. 500 years ago, everybody “knew” that the earth was flat. And 15 minutes ago, you “knew” that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you’ll “know” tomorrow.”

Mr. Holland’s Opus

Glenn Holland: Playing music is supposed to be fun. It’s about heart, it’s about feelings, moving people, and something beautiful, and it’s not about notes on a page. I can teach you notes on a page, I can’t teach you that other stuff.

–

Glenn Holland: Well, congratulations, Gene. You’ve been looking for a way to get rid of me for 30 years, and they finally gave you an excuse.

Vice Principal Wolters: You know, I’m not as popular as you. I’m not anybody’s favorite anything.

Glenn Holland: That’s because you’re the enemy, Gene. You just don’t know it.

–

Glenn Holland: I’m 60 years old, Gene. What are you going to do: write me a recommendation for the morgue?

–

Glenn Holland: Which instrument do you think you’d like to play?

Louis Russ: Well, I was kinda thinkin’ like… How about electric guitar?

Glenn Holland: Well, this is a marching band. The extension cord will kill us.

–

Vice Principal Wolters: I care about these kids just as much as you do. And if I’m forced to choose between Mozart and reading and writing and long division, I choose long division.

Glenn Holland: Well, I guess you can cut the arts as much as you want, Gene. Sooner or later, these kids aren’t going to have
anything to read or write about.

–

Mrs. Winterborne

Grace Winterbourne: How did I ever raise such a snob?

Bill Winterbourne: I don’t know, Mother. I’ll ask the servants.

–

The Mummy

Beni: Much better to be the right hand of the devil than to be in his path.

–

Rick O’Connell: I’ve been to Hamunaptra.

Evelyn: You swear?

Rick O’Connell: Every damn day.

–

Winston: So what does your little problem have to do with His Majesty’s Air
Force?

Rick O’Connell: Not a damn thing!

–

Jonathan: Well, everyone else we’ve bumped into has died. Why should you be any different?

–

Evelyn: You lied to me!

Jonathan: I lie to everyone. What makes you so special?

–

Rick O’Connell: Well if it ain’t my little buddy Beni. I think I’ll kill you.

Beni Gabor: Think of my children!

Rick O’Connell: You don’t have any children!

Beni Gabor: Someday I might!

–

Rick O’Connell: You’re gonna get yours, Beni! You’re gonna get yours!

Beni Gabor: Oh, like I’ve never heard THAT before!

–

The Mummy Returns

Izzy: Whatever it is, O’Connell, I’m not interested! Every time I hook up with you, I get shot! Last time I got shot in the arse! I’m still in mourning for my arse!

–

Meela: What a clever little boy! Your mother must be missing you terribly. If you wish to ever see her again, you better behave!

Alex O’Connell: Lady, I don’t even behave for my parents, what makes you think I’m going to do it for you?

Meela: Your parents didn’t put poisonous snakes in your bed while you were sleeping!

–

My Fellow Americans

Genny: I’m sorry, but we’re Republicans.

Matt Douglas: At least you admit it. That’s the first step to recovery

–

[Matt Douglas’ made-up words to “Hail to the Chief”]
Matt Douglas: Hail to the chief, if you don’t I’ll have to kill you. I am the chief, so you’d better watch your step, you bastards.

–

Russell Kramer: Oh, yeah. I’m about to share my coffee with the Washington Love Machine. No dice! You could spit in a Petri dish and start a whole new civilization.

–

Russell Kramer: It’s a kick in the balls! Sorry, sweetheart.

Margaret Kramer: Please, I’m a politician’s wife. I have a set of my own!

–

Man in bathroom: It’s an honor, sir.

President Matt Douglas: I can’t shake right now. I have to keep my hands on the First Penis.

–

Kramer: I was Time Magazine’s Man of the Year.

Douglas: So was Hitler!

Kramer: Not twice!

–

Kramer: I had only one assassination attempt against me and you had three!

Douglas: Two! The woman in Phoenix doesn’t count; she only had a starter’s pistol!

–

The Nightmare Before Christmas
(Sait’s Note: Yes I could quote the whole damn movie but I won’t…love this moive)

Santa - ‘Twas a long time ago, longer now than it seems in a place perhaps you’ve seen in your dreams. For the story you’re about to be told began with the holiday worlds of auld. Now you’ve probably wondered where holidays come from. If you haven’t I’d say it’s time you begun.

–

Mayor - Jack, please, I’m only an elected official here, I can’t make decisions by myself!

Patch Adams

Hunter Patch Adams: “You treat a disease, you win, you lose. You treat a person I’ll guarantee you’ll win.”

Pleasentville

David/Bud Parker: “They’re happy like this.”

Jennifer/Mary Sue Parker: “No, David. Nobody’s happy in a poodle skirt and a sweater set.”

–

David/Bud Parker: “We’re supposed to be in school.”
Jennifer/Mary Sue Parker: “We’re supposed to be at home, David. We’re supposed to be in color!”

–

David’s Mom: When your father was here, I used to think, “This was it. This is the way it was always going to be. I had the right house. I had the right car. I had the right life.”

David: There is no right house. There is no right car.

The Truman Show

Network Executive: “For God’s sake, Chris! The whole world is watching. We can’t
let him die in front of a live audience!”
