Nothing to do with a film but I've always like this one by Peter Cook:

Peter Cook on God:

"Good of him not to torment us with being eternally young and being able to f@*k everyone. Instead of that he gave us this great gift of cancer.
I wouldn't have thought of that if I'd been creator of the universe, would you? I would've left that out."

Here's some of mine

"Is evil just something you are, or something you do?"



"it's so easy to laugh
it's so easy to hate
it takes strength to be gentle and kind
over and over"




"And if you must go to work tomorrow, well if I were you I wouldn't bother...for there are brighter sides to life and I should know because I've seen them but not very often"



"what makes most people feel happy, leads us headlong into harm"



These are all by the one and only Morrissey

Haha, glad to see another fan on goonersworld.

I love the line "i dreamt about you last night, and i fell out of bed twice" from that song.

sorry if this is a bit bit long-winded ...

this exchange between wyatt earp and ike , one of the cowboys who murdered wyatts youngest brother from the film "tombstone" does it for me . the look in kurt russell's eye and the way he delivers his last two lines still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up even after the 20 or so viewings i have had of this great western .

Wyatt Earp: All right, Clanton... you called down the thunder, well now you've got it! You see that?
[pulls open his coat, revealing a badge]
Wyatt Earp: It says United States Marshal!
Ike Clanton: [terrified, pleading] Wyatt, please, I...
Wyatt Earp: [referring to Stilwell, laying dead] Take a good look at him, Ike... 'cause that's how you're gonna end up!
[shoves Ike down roughly with his boot]
Wyatt Earp: The Cowboys are finished, you understand? I see a red sash, I kill the man wearin' it!
[lets Ike up to run for his life]
Wyatt Earp: So run, you cur... RUN! Tell all the other curs the law's comin'!
[shouts]
Wyatt Earp: You tell 'em I'M coming... and hell's coming with me, you hear?...
[louder]
Wyatt Earp: Hell's coming with me!

A quote from Downfall. It was actually said by a rather "famous" person.

"How fortunate for leaders that men do not think."

In The Big Sleep Lauren Bacall tells Humphrey Bogart

"So you're a private detective. I didn't know they existed, except in books, or else they were greasy little men snooping around hotel corridors. My, you're a mess, aren't you?"

To which Bogie (Philip Marlowe.) replies

"Next time I'll come on stilts, wear a tuxedo and carry a tennis racket" :rofll:

One of the greatest lines ever committed to celluloid, and rumour has it, ad-libbed :hail:
