In My Humble Opinion

ah, a35362, A Lion in Winter OToole and Hepburn at their best. One of my favorite films.

Some more great quotes from it:

“I made Louis take me on Crusade. I dressed my women as Amazons and we rode bare-breasted halfway to Damascus. Louis had a seizure and I damn near died of windburn… but the troops were dazzled.”

“Give me a little peace.”
“A little? Why so modest? How about eternal peace? Now there’s a thought.”

162

Oh, come on! How about:

One of my favorite lines is from the otherwise totally forgettable Honey, I blew up the kid. A baby has been transformed into supergiant size, and is running amok, so to save it they also expand its mother, so this very large mom goes chasing after the baby, and an onlooker says:
“Look at the size of that mother”

others:

“Don’t you mean the virgin Connie Swayle?”

“Dodge this”

“Gentlemen, let’s broaden our minds… Lawrence?”

“Stacy, we broke up three months ago”
“That doesn’t mean we can’t still go out”
“Well it does, actually. That’s what breaking up is”

“Nobody’s really going to be free until nerd persecution ends”

“Hey, you. You get your damn hands off of her”

“You rebel scum!”

“Toe pick”

“MORTAL KOMBAT!” (followed by loud techno music)

“I see that you are speechless… a fine quality in a wife”

“He chose… poorly”

“Don’t hurt my mules”
“Suuuuppppeeeerrrrmmmaaaannn”

Jessica Marbles: Knock it off, Sam!
Sam Diamond: I apologize. This case is getting to me. I’m sorry, Slanty.
Sidney Wang: Um… thank you.

174

Narile, it’s The Lion in Winter. Sorry for the nitpick, but this is my very favorite movie of all time.
The dialogue is, by far, the best I’ve heard.

a35362, the line you quote from was my very first sig here.

More quotes from the movie:

“The day those stout hearts band together is the day that pigs get wings.”
“There’ll be pork in the treetops come morning!”

“Poor John. No one ever says poor John. Why if I went up in flames, no one would pee on me to put the fire out.”
“Let’s strike a flint, and see.”

“You have a gift…for hating.”
“You’re the expert, you should know.”

175

It’s a fact. Sicilians have nigger blood pumpin’ through their hearts. If you don’t believe me, look
it up. You see, hundreds and hundreds of years ago the Moors conquered Sicily. And Moors are niggers.
Way back then, Sicilians were like the wops in northern Italy. Blond hair, blue eyes. But, once the
Moors moved in there, they changed the whole country. They did so much fuckin’ with the Sicilian
women, they changed the blood-line for ever, from blond hair and blue eyes to black hair and dark
skin. I find it absolutely amazing to think that to this day, hundreds of years later, Sicilians
still carry that nigger gene. I’m just quotin’ history. It’s a fact. It’s written. Your ancestors
were niggers. Your great, great, great, great, great-grandmother was fucked by a nigger, and had a
half-nigger kid. That is a fact. Now tell me, am I lyin’?

The best scene in a movie IMO.

176

“Well, I guess I’ve done murder. Oh, I won’t think about that now. I’ll think about that tomorrow.”

“Insanity runs in my family. It practically gallops!”

“I’m looking at you, miss.”

“You be strong, you survive. You stay alive. No matter what occurs. I will find you. No matter how long it takes, no matter how far. I will find you – I will find you!”

“Sometimes, Selena, being a bitch is all a woman has to hold on to.”

“Trust me, darling, it’s for the best.” [BLAM!!]

“Fasten your seat belts, kids. It’s going to be a bumpy night.”

“My natural habitat is the theater. In it, I toil not, neither do I spin. I am a critic.”

“Murder is my favorite crime.”

“When a dame gets killed, she doesn’t worry about how she looks.”

“In my case, self-absorption is completely justified.”

“I don’t use a pen. I write with a goose quill dipped in venom.”

“I’m not kind, I’m vicious. It’s the secret of my charm.”

“It took more than one man to name me Shanghai Lily.”

“Monsieur Valmont never opens his mouth without calculating what damage he can do.”

“Love is too weak a word for what I feel. I lurve you. I luff you.”

177

“Children of the night – shut up!”

178

“You see, boys forget what their country means by just reading ‘the land of the free’ in history books. Then they get to be men they forget even more. Liberty’s too precious a thing to be buried in books, Miss Saunders. Men should hold it up in front of them every single day of their lives and say: ‘I’m free to think and to speak; my ancestors couldn’t; I can, and my children will.’ Boys ought to grow up remembering that.”

“Just remember this, Mr. Potter: that this rabble you’re talking about, they do most of the working and paying and living and dying in this community. Well, is it too much to have them work and pay and live and die in a couple of decent rooms and a bath?”

“Hellllllp meeeee!! HELLLLLLP MEEEEEEE!!!”

“You want that gun? Pick it up. I wish you would.”

“Is it showing off when a man does what he’s capable of doing? Is a bird showing off when it flies?”

“How much for your daughter?”

“It’s like the car. He hates her, loves the car.”

Christopher Walken has the uncanny ability to come into a movie and with one scene, steal the whole picture, just like he did with True Romance above
This is from Pulp Fiction

Your granddad was a Marine and he was
killed with all the other Marines
at the battle of Wake Island. Your
granddad was facing death and he
knew it. None of those boys had
any illusions about ever leavin’
that island alive. So three days
before the Japanese took the
island, your 22-year old
grandfather asked a gunner on an
Air Force transport named Winocki,
a man he had never met before in
his life, to deliver to his infant
son, who he had never seen in the
flesh, his gold watch. Three days
later, your grandfather was dead.
But Winocki kept his word. After
the war was over, he paid a visit
to your grandmother, delivering to
your infant father, his Dad’s gold
watch. This watch. This watch was
on your Daddy’s wrist when he was
shot down over Hanoi. He was
captured and put in a Vietnamese
prison camp. Now he knew if the
gooks ever saw the watch it’s be
confiscated. The way your Daddy
looked at it, that watch was your
birthright. And he’d be damned if
and slopeheads were gonna put their
greasy yella hands on his boy’s
birthright. So he hid it in the
one place he knew he could hide
somethin’. His ass. Five long
years, he wore this watch up his
ass. Then when he died of
disentary, he gave me the watch. I
hid with uncomfortable hunk of
metal up my ass for two years.
Then, after seven years, I was sent
home to my family. And now, little
man, I give the watch to you.
