We all have them. A line out of a movie that we use any chance we get. For me it is from the original airplane movie.

"I have a question."
"A question, what is it?"
"It's an interrogative statement used to test knowledge, but thats not important now."

I have SO many favorite quotes, I couldn't pick out just one. So I decided to go with one from each movie genre.

Comedy - Clerks Randal Graves: There's nothing more exhilarating than pointing out the shortcomings of others, is there?

Drama - The Shawshank Redemption
Red: (narrating) I have no idea to this day what those two Italian ladies were singing about. Truth is, I don't want to know. Some things are best left unsaid. I'd like to think they were singing about something so beautiful, it can't be expressed in words, and makes your heart ache because of it. I tell you, those voices soared higher and farther than anybody in a gray place dares to dream. It was like some beautiful bird flapped into our drab little cage and made those walls dissolve away, and for the briefest of moments, every last man in Shawshank felt free.

Action - Predator
Major Dutch Schaeffer: You're one ugly mother******.

I couldn't think of any horror quotes I liked. I could actually give you zillions of good quotes from Clerks though...heh heh

"What are we going to do now you morons?" Stork, Animal House.

OK, I'll go for the longest (and darkest) favorite line(s).
-----------------
Ed O'Neill & Customer at Stan Mikita's Donuts in Wayne's World.

"I got paid today."

"Oh yeah, I know what that's like."

"No, you don't understand. I got one of these." (shows pink slip)

"Yeah, I know how you feel."

"You know what I'd like to do?"

"Yeah, I know what you'd like to do. You'd like to find the guy that did it, rip his still-beating heart out of his chest, and hold it in front of his face so he can see how black it is before he dies."

"Actually, I was thinking about filing a grievance with the union."

"Well the world's a twisted place."

Night Shift with Henry Winkler & Michael Keaton. Two guys working as pimps from the city morgue on the night shift. The whole thing is a string of classic lines.

- I was about to dunk on you. You couldn't dunk donuts. A dollar?

- (during the opening credits and score) I was here, he was there, that guy's dead and he still aint paid me my dollar.

- Edible paper. You eat it it's gone.

- They barred me. How much were you up? well I was down about $400 but they could tell I was good so they barred me.

- I can turn it up, I can turn it down, from the front to the back, left right, I can make it revurb (used most often when the wife asks you if you could turn the radio/tv down)

- I'm an idea man see.

- Hey kid you like music. Great. Do dooo, do do do, ..do do do (to the tune of jumping jack flash).

- Barney Rubble, what an actor.

- Name of deceased, something polish.

- Love Brokers!

- You couldn't do this in Russia.

- Some business man comes to town, goes to a strip club, gets all worked up, attacks a gil scout and breaks all her cookies (Newspaper folded in half, headline reads Young Girl Attacked)

- (Newspaper head line - unfolded - Young Girl Attacked by German Shepard) German shepard, business man, what's the difference.

- Sometimes the best way to understand a word is to break it down in its parts. Prostitution....... Tion from the latin shun, to push away. That doesn't belong here, I don't know what it's doing in here anyway.

- Chuck you bought a cemetary. Great idea. They'll be dying to get in. Hey this one's full, shouldn't you have bought an empty one.

- Put mayonaisse in the can with tunafish. No wait, feed mayonaisse to the tuna. (into a recorder) Bill call Starkist in the morning.

- (in a cell at Central Lockup) Are you running for cell president? They have that?

- I've sunk as low as I can go. (across the cell a fellow prisoner opens up a string of paper dolls and blows Chuck a kiss) I was wrong.

- (Chuck foaming at the mouth just tried to hit Bill with Bill's tennis racket and wiped out their lawyer's desk) Chuck, you need to keep that elbow straight.

- We killed Washington, and he was our friend.

- Get out of town, you two guys?

too many to mention.

From Predator:

Arnold: You're bleeding.

Jesse Ventura: I don't have time to bleed.

"--Granted, that's a worse case scenario. The destruction might in fact be ... limited to our own galaxy."

From The Wrath of Kahn and some British military commander before that.
