"...Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things that a man needs to believe in the most: that people are basically good; that honor, courage, and virtue mean everything; that power and money, money and power mean nothing; that good always triumphs over evil; that love, true love, never dies... No matter if they're true or not, a man should believe in those things because those are the things worth believing in."

Hub McCann "Secondhand Lions"

A few I have referenced in my stories-

“This conversation is getting kind of strange. Are you trying to seduce me?” - The Graduate and Rendezvous Ch. 2.

“You may take this body but it will not be me!” - Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves and Ruleskirter.

“As you wish.” - Princess Bride and multiple stories I’ve written.

And one I haven’t-

“Mr. Charlie Simms doesn’t need to prove himself a Baird man to graduate from this ‘cradle of leadership’. He’s got integrity and courage. That’s what leaders should be made of. This boy’s soul is powerful and intact. How do I know? Someone here, I’m not going to say who, offered to buy it. Only Charlie wasn’t selling.” - Scent of a Woman (paraphrase of a longer speech).

Another from Scent of a Woman: "If I was half the man I was ten years ago I'd take a flamethrower to this place! But I'm too old, I'm too blind, I'm too fuckin' blind."

Al Pacino's delivery is so good. You get the anger, the frustration, the tiredness.

"If you work for a living, why kill yourself working?"

It's more than a good movie quote, it's my philosophy.

Porsche. There is no substitute.

Also from Risky Business- “Sometimes you just gotta say ‘what the fuck!’ “

 

[lovecraft68]

Also from Risky Business- “Sometimes you just gotta say ‘what the fuck!’ “

This is a classic 80's movie and I've never seen it. Just never appealed to me for some reason.
When I think Rebecca De Mornay, I think about the great psycho she played in Hand That Rocks the Cradle.

What we've got here is failure to communicate.

Also from Risky Business- “Sometimes you just gotta say ‘what the fuck!’ “

[AchtungNight]

This is a classic 80's movie and I've never seen it. Just never appealed to me for some reason.
When I think Rebecca De Mornay, I think about the great psycho she played in Hand That Rocks the Cradle.

I think about Milady from ‘90s 3 Musketeers and Wildcat’s mom on Jessica Jones.

Speaking of the latter-

“I don’t flirt. I just say what I want.”
