Favorite Movie Quotes

[civiclx]

I can't believe there isn't a more relevant thread. The thread I found hadn't had any replies since 2011. Ok so not sure what makes me think this will get anymore attention

Two of my faves aren't from movies so it's not easy to find them to make sure I got them verbatim. Both shows were documentaries on The History Channel several years ago. I believe the first one was something about a history of the KKK.
This guy is telling a story about three defendants on trial for the murder of an African American man. Goes something like this:

"So one of the defendants looks at the man's mother and says I'm so sorry for what I did to your son, please forgive me. And she looks at him and says son, I already have. And I tell you there wasn't a dry eye in that courtroom. Even that ol' Mississippi judge had to hold a few back."

The other is about 9/11 and this guy is talking about the brave firefighters going in to save people.

"And here I am stumbling down the stairs and I pass this firefighter in the stairwell and I look him in the eyes, and I tell you he didn't miss a God damn step"

Ok, I'll get us started

Braveheart
Robert the Bruce: Lands, titles, men, power…nothing.
Robert’s father: Nothing?
Robert the Bruce: I have nothing. Men fight for me because if they do not, I throw them off my land and I starve their wives and children. Those men who bled the ground red at Falkirk fought for William Wallace. He fights for something that I never had. And I took it from him, when I betrayed him. I saw it in his face on the battlefield and it’s tearing me apart.
Robert’s father: All men betray! All lose heart.
Robert the Bruce: I don’t want to lose heart. I want to believe as he does.

Stephen the Crazy Irish to William Wallace
The Lord tells me he can get me out of this mess, but he's pretty sure you're f*****

Robert the Bruce as he leads his men into battle
You have bled with Wallace, now bleed with me

Valkyrie
Major General Henning von Tresckow to Col Stauffenberg
God promised Abraham that he would not destroy Sodom if he could find ten righteous men...I have a feeling that for Germany it may come down to one.

Major General Henning von Tresckow
We have to show the world that not all of us were like him

Col Stauffenberg: I’m engaged in high treason with all means available to me. Can I count you in?
Lt Haeften: For anything sir, anything at all.

Inglourious Basterds
Lt Archie Hicox: Well if this is it old boy, I hope you don't mind if I go out speaking the king's

Bad Boys II
Marcus gets the call and finds out that his sister has been kidnapped. Thinking they're on their own, Mike goes to console Marcus. Then they realize they're not as alone as they thought.
DEA Agent Tony Dodd: Don't know you. You look like you're about to do something stupid. I'm in.
TNT Agent Fanuti: Dodd here tell you how f****** crazy us ex-Delta guys are?

13 Hours: Secret Soldier of Benghazi
Tyrone "Rone" Woods: How willing are you to die for your country? I'm ready to go right here, right now.

Black Hawk Down
The team has just been briefed on their mission
Matthews: What's the matter Danny? Something you don't like?
McKnight: No Spectre gunships, daylight instead of night, late afternoon when they're all ****ed up on Khat, only part of the city Aidid can mount a serious counter-attack on short notice...[chuckles] What's not to like?
Harell: Life's imperfect.
McKnight: Yeah, for you two, circling above it at five hundred feet it's imperfect. Down in the street, it's unforgiving.

Hoot: When I go home, people ask me, "Hey Hoot, why do you do it, man? Why? You some kind of war junkie?" I won't say a goddamn word. Why? They won't understand. They won't understand why we do it. They won't understand it's about the men next to you...and that's it. That's all it is.

The Crow

"Its funny; little things used to mean so much to Shelly. I always thought they were kind of trivial. Believe me...nothing is trivial."

"If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them. Buildings burn, people die...but real love is forever."

Back to the Future, Part II

"Within two hours of his arrest, Martin McFly, Jr. was convicted and sentenced to 15 years in the state penitentiary?! In two hours?"
"The justice system works swiftly in the future, now that they've abolished all the lawyers!"

"Obviously, the time continuum has been disrupted, creating this new temporal-event sequence, resulting in this alternate reality!"
"English, Doc!"

"Hey, kid! Are you alright? You need any help?"
"There's only one man who can help me..."

Frequency

"You went down thirty years ago, pal. You just don't know it yet."

Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring
All from the same scene.

Gandalf: I will help you bear this burdern Frodo Baggins, as long as it's yours to bear.

Aragorn: If by my life or death I can protect you, I will.

Boromir: And what would a ranger know of this matter?
Legolas: This is no mere ranger. He is Aragorn, son of Arathorn. You owe him your allegiance.

Raiders of the Lost Ark

Indiana: It's not the years, honey. It's the mileage.

Belloq: How odd that it should end this way for us after so many stimulating encounters. I almost regret it. Where shall I find a new adversary so close to my own level?
Indiana: Try the local sewer.

Belloq: You and I are very much alike. Archeology is our religion, yet we have both fallen from the pure faith. Our methods have not differed as much as you pretend. I am but a shadowy reflection of you. It would take only a nudge to make you like me. To push you out of the light.
Indiana: Now you're getting nasty.

Nice ones Michael. I'm not sure if I've ever seen that film, or maybe I have but I'm not sure if I saw the whole thing.

Jurassic Park

"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."

"The point is, you are alive when they start to eat you. So try and show a little respect."

"These animals...require our absence to survive, not our help. And if we could only step aside, and trust in nature...life will find a way."

rofl, I think I might have seen that one. I searched for "quotes" first and then did a search for "line". I might have skipped that one since it's single greatest line and it's so hard to just pick one

"Now that we know who you are, I know who I am. I'm not a mistake! It all makes sense! In a comic, you know how you can tell who the arch-villain's going to be? He's the exact opposite of the hero. And most times they're friends, like you and me! I should've known way back when... You know why, David? Because of the kids!

They called me Mr Glass."

Do you remember the philosopher Epictetus? You remember what he said? He said if you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid.
