That's right, I've killed women and children. Killed just about eveything that walks or crawls at one time or another and I'm here to kill you, Lil Bill.

That rug really tied the room together, DID IT NOT???

"Let's look for Alf."

It's not necessarily my favorite movie quote, but one of the ones I remember the most.

 

"Wings? You have wings? I don't have wings..."
"Of course not. You're a boy."

"Women! A mistake? Or did God do it to us ON PURPOSE!!?"
- Witches of Eastwick


"I had to be up at that there crossroads last midnight, to sell my soul to the devil."
"Well, ain't it a small world, spiritually speaking. Pete and Delmar just been baptized and saved. I guess I'm the only one that remains unaffiliated."

You know what's always bothered me about James Bond? It's that whole shaken not stirred business, all you'd wind up with is vodka, vermouth and water. There's a reason they use a special stirring spoon for martinis Charlie, and that's so they don't chip the ice and make it melt too soon. James is ordering a weak, watered down drink, and he's being snooty about it." - Martin Sheen as President Jed Bartlett, The West Wing.

Oho! Now we're talking! Remember how the President wasn't supposed to talk about the issue of parking tickets being given to UN diplomats, who were constantly lobbying the White House for immunity from them?

Jed Bartlett: (roaring into the speaker phone to the UN Secretary-General) There are big signs! You can't park there! I hope they do tow them away! I hope they tow them to Queens! Where there's a impound! Or a TRACTOR SHOW!
(Hangs up)
Charlie: ...Well, for starters that was probably his secretary.
Jed Bartlett: Dammit!

Or where Sam Seaborne (Rob Lowe) is being taken apart on a live TV commentary show by a Republican on the subject of public education?
Josh Lyman: (running into Toby Ziegler's office!) Toby! You gotta see it! Sam's getting his ass kicked by a girl!
(General stampede towards the TV screens)

Jed Bartlett: (whispering to God, in a Cathedral.) Josh got shot three times in Philadelphia. That boy's like my son. What did I ever do to yours? Except honour and worship him?

(By the way, does anyone have a transcript of Jed Bartlett's little Latin discourse in that scene? The season two finale? It sounds like one badass cursing-out he's doing of the Almighty in that bit of dialogue...)

 

Scream only put me onto the West Wing a couple of months ago, so I'm currently into season 4. But yes, I want to know what he was saying in latin in that monologue, he acted it fantastically.

Actually that episode is my favourite so far.

 

Am I the only one who did Latin at school?

Gratias tibi ago, domine.
haec credam a deo pio, a deo justo, a deo scito?
cruciatus in crucem.
tuus in terra servus, nuntius fui; officium perfeci.
cruciatus in crucem!

Thanks (be) to you, (O) Lord.
Am I to believe you are a pious god, a just god, a wise god?
To hell with your punishments! (literally To a crucifixion with you!)
I was your servant on earth, and spread your word; I did my duty (and well),
To hell with your punishment.

I would say by "pious" you should take it to mean exhibiting a strict, traditional sense of virtue and morality rather than being especially religious which God isn't really supposed to do, being boss and all. But it could mean, in translation, "righteous".

maybe that it's a TV quote in a MOVIE quote thread ?

 

This next quote's from The Goodies (I know it's a TV series, but its still funny).

From Episode 7 Radio Goodies.

Bill (As a Disk Jokey): "Hi there cats kittens here we go with another brand new wingding, do your own thing. Wam bam kick up the jam sam wam bam its Radio Goodies. Goody, goody, goody! Yeah it's Radio Goodies yo better believe alright yep yep yep, sock it to it, sock it to it,sock it to it!"

Tim: "With the right up to the minute sound of ... 'A Walk in the Black Forrest.'" (It's the only record they have.)

Graeme: "And now ... 'A Walk in the Black Forrest.'"

 

Because I didn't recognise it. I thought you might even have got the wrong thread. But now that I know it was a quote the confusion is gone.

 

Hey Oz, they asked I provided.

Boogie, ahhhh... gotcha.

Thanks E_S, I should have thought to ask you in the first place...

RoadHouse - Released 1989

Patrick Swayze - His Character was Dalton.. if you havent seen the movie..


One of my favorite movies... Not really quote more like a scene and a quote from another character at the bottom
-----

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dalton: If somebody gets in your face and calls you a ***ksucker, I want you to be nice. Ask him to walk. Be nice. If he won't walk, walk him. But be nice. If you can't walk him, one of the others will help you, and you'll both be nice. I want you to remember that it's a job. It's nothing personal.

Dalton: I want you to be nice until it's time to not be nice.

Steve: Being called a ***ksucker isn't personal?
Dalton: No. It's two nouns combined to elicit a prescribed response.
Steve: What if somebody callas my mama a whore?
Dalton: Is she?
