Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in awhile, you could miss it. - Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
Dear Mr. Vernon: We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it is we did wrong, but we think you’re crazy for making us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us: in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain, and an athlete, and a basket case, a princess, and a criminal. Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, The Breakfast Club

Lloyd : You probably got it all figured out, Corey. If you start out depressed everything’s kind of a pleasant surprise.

Joe: By choice, man!

I can’t believe my grandmother actually felt me up!
It’s really human of you to listen to all my bullshit.
That’s why they call them crushes. If they were easy, they’d call them something else.
From The Breakfast Club
Naked blonde walks into a bar with a poodle under one arm, and a two-foot salami under the other. The bartender says, I guess you won’t be needing a drink. Naked lady says-- oh shit!
Screws just fall out all the time, the world is an imperfect place.
Allison: Why are you being so nice to me?
Claire: Because you’re letting me.
Does Barry Manilow know that you raid his wardrobe?
I don’t have to runaway and live in the street. I can runaway and I can go to the ocean, I can go to the country, I can go to the mountains. I could go to Israel, Africa, Afghanistan.
Obviously she’s crazy if she’s screwing a shrink.
Well, if you say you haven’t, you’re a prude. If you say you have you’re a slut. It’s a trap.
Being bad feels pretty good, huh?
Hey, how come Andrew gets to get up? If he gets up, we’ll all get up, it’ll be anarchy!
I wanna be just like you. I figure all I need, is a lobotomy and some tights.

Obviously, I spent too much time watching these as a teenager…
