Favorite Movie Quotes: Broken Flowers
"Well, the past is gone, I know that. The future isn't here yet, whatever it's going to be. So, all there is, is this. The present. That's it."

Favorite Movie Quotes: Broken Arrow
"I don't know what's scarier, losing nuclear weapons, or that it happens so often there's actually a term for it."
Favorite Movie Quotes: Broadcast News
"What do you think the Devil is going to look like if he's around? C'mon, nobody is going to be taken in by a guy with a long, red, pointy tail. C'mon, what's he going to sound like, "Yaaargh."? No. I'm semi-serious here. He will be attractive, he'll be nice and helpful. He'll get a job where he influences a great God-fearing nation. He'll never do an evil thing, he'll never deliberately hurt a living thing. He'll just bit by little bit lower our standards where they are important. Just a tiny little bit, just coax along flash over substance, just a tiny little bit. And he'll talk about all of us really being salesmen. And he'll get all the great women."

Favorite Movie Quotes: Bride of the Monster
"Home? I have no home. Hunted, despised, living like an animal! The jungle is my home. But I will show the world that I can be its master! I will perfect my own race of people. A race of atomic supermen which will conquer the world! Ha ha ha ha!"

Favorite Movie Quotes: Kids in the Hall Brain Candy
"When I was a little boy, my mother used to sing me a song. It went like this: 'Life is short, life is shit, and soon it will be over.'"

Favorite Movie Quotes: The Boys From Brazil
"Do you know what I saw on the television in my motel room at one o'clock this morning? Films of Hitler! They are showing films about the war! The movement! People are fascinated! The time is ripe! Adolf Hitler is alive! This album is full of pictures of him. Bobby Wheelock and ninety-three other boys are exact genetic duplicates of him, bred entirely from his cells. He allowed me to take half a liter of his blood and a cutting of skin from his ribs. We were in a biblical frame of mind on the twenty-third of May 1943, at the Berghof. He had denied himself children because he knew that no son could flourish in the shadow of so godlike a father! But when he heard what was theoretically possible, that I could create one day not his son, not even a carbon-copy but another original, he was thrilled by the idea! The right Hitler for the right future! A Hitler tailor-made for the 1980s, 90s, 2000!"
Gregory Peck was a surprisingly disturbing villain.

Favorite Movie Quotes: Boogie Nights
"When I close my eyes, I see this thing, a sign, I see this name in bright blue neon lights with a purple outline. And this name is so bright and so sharp that the sign, it just blows up because the name is so powerful. It says, 'Dirk Diggler.'"

Favorite Movie Quotes: The Bonfire of the Vanities
"I was at dinner last evening, and halfway through the pudding, this four-year-old child came alone, dragging a little toy cart. And on the cart was a fresh turd. Her own, I suppose. The parents just shook their heads and smiled. I've made a big investment in you, Peter. Time and money, and it's not working. Now, I could just shake my head and smile. But in my house, when a turd appears, we throw it out. We dispose of it. We flush it away. We don't put it on the table and call it caviar."

Favorite Movie Quotes: The Blues Brothers
"Honest! I ran out of gas. I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car! There was an earthquake! A terrible flood! Locusts! It wasn't my fault, I swear to God!"
