Speaking of Cary Grant, do you know this one?

Eve Kendall: [Hanging by their fingers from Mount Rushmore] What happened with your first two marriages?
Roger Thornhill: My wives divorced me.
Eve Kendall: Why?
Roger Thornhill: They said I led too dull a life.

It's from a not-so-little gem of a movie. Hint: it's all about transportation and the journey from here to there.

James Mason played the most fascinating villains.

 

[Emilymcplugger]

One of the best monologues of all time.

(Chico) Fiorello: So now I tell you how we fly to America. The first time we started we got-a half way there when we run out a gasoline, and we gotta go back. Then I take-a twice as much gasoline. This time we're just about to land, maybe three feet, when what do you think: we run out of gasoline again. And-a back-a we go again to get-a more gas. This time I take-a plenty gas. Well, we get-a half way over, when what do you think happens: we forgot-a the airplane. So, we gotta sit down and we talk it over. Then I get-a the great idea. We no take-a gasoline, we no take-a the airplane. We take steamship, and that, friends, is how we fly across the ocean.

Night at the opera.

“I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it’s been in my dreams. I hope…”

You brought up another Grant movie:

Reggie Lampert: Is there a Mrs. Cruikshank...?
Adam Canfield: Yes.
Reggie Lampert: But you're divorced.
Adam Canfield: No...
Reggie Lampert: [Regina's face falls] Oh.
Adam Canfield: [Brian/Adam gets out his wallet to show her the picture] My mother, she lives in Detroit, you'd like her, she'd like you too.

From the trailer of Napoleon, "I'm the first to admit when I make a mistake. I simply never do."

- Shawshank Redemption

I love the final scene of that movie.

Self-awaremess is not the mark of any dictator. There's that little matter of the invasion of Russia, which wiped out almost all of his army.

Look, Joel. You look like a smart kid. So I'm going to tell you something I'm sure you'll understand. . . . In a sluggish economy, never, ever fuck with another man's livelihood.

 

[MillieDynamite]

I'm certain they will show it. I know they have a scene showing the Russian cannon fire directed at the ice the French soldiers (and German mercenaries) are walking across. I'm not 100% certain about the Germans, but they were guns for hire back then, and I do think Napoleon used them.

I will not say do not weep. For not all tears are an evil.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion... I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain... Time to die.

"Do you think your average Stormtrooper knows how to install a toilet main?"

Probably been quoted before.

Yesterday, actually. But it's still a good quote.

Commander Leonard 'Bones' McCoy, M.D.: Spock, you haven't changed a bit. You're just as warm and sociable as ever.
Commander Spock: Nor have you, doctor, as your continued predilection for irrelevancy demonstrates.

Going from memory,

Portal: Many such journeys are possible.
Kirk: Let's get the hell* out of here.

*it was an era when 'hell' was shocking to hear on TV.

"Love. You can learn all the math in the 'Verse, but you take a boat in the air that you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurtin' 'fore she keens. Makes her a home."

 

[SimonDoom]

An attempt at humor, I suppose.
