> [@Zebra](#): > > There is no way I can pick one. +1 I quote movies like literature (…and occasionally, they are 😉 ). * * * Genie: You’re a clever little man little master of the universe, but mortals are weak and frail. If their stomach speaks, they forget their brain. If their brain speaks, they forget their heart. And if their heart speaks [laughter] … they forget everything!!! The Thief of Bagdad (1940) Spade: We didn’t exactly believe your story, Miss O’Shaughnessy. We believed your 200 dollars. I mean, you paid us more than if you had been telling us the truth, and enough more to make it all right. The Maltese Falcon (1940) Adam Canfield: Hasn’t it occurred to you that I’m having a tough time keeping my hands off you? Oh, you should see your face. Reggie Lampert: What’s the matter with it? Adam Canfield: It’s lovely. Charade (1963) Dr. Loomis: “As a matter of fact, it was.” Halloween (1978) Dr. Peter Venkman: “We’ve been going about this all wrong. This Mr. Stay Puft’s okay! He’s a sailor, he’s in New York; we get this guy laid, we won’t have any trouble!” Ghostbusters (1984) Jimmy Conway: " I’m not mad, I’m proud of you. You took your first pinch like a man and you learn two great things in your life. Look at me, never rat on your friends and always keep your mouth shut." GoodFellas (1990) ---
