There are far too many quotations to pick a best quote. Then, there are all of those poor wee quotations that are never spoken or written but deserve attention, too. So, I shall share some of those overlooked words that people can either read or ignore if they wish.



"I don't have the face for tentacles."~Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow in "Pirates of the Caribbean At World's End"



"I've been kidnapped by Kmart!"~Bette Midler upon learning that hubby Danny DeVito has been trying to strike a bargain with kidnappers Judge Reinhold and Helen Slater



"How DARE he make love to me and not be a married man!"~Ingrid Bergman of Cary Grant in "Indiscreet"



"Remember: Perfection is a road, not a destination."~Joel Grey to Fred Ward in "Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins"



"Let's get outta here before I get the epizootes!"~Robert Duvall of the doctor's office in "Rambling Rose"



"You know, if you really loved me, you'd die in the next three seconds."~vixenish wife Famke Janssen to hubby Geoffrey Rush in "House on Haunted Hill"



"Are you guys sure you don't want to kick my tires?"~Cate Blanchett to Bruce Willis and Billy Bob Thornton, who are arguing about "ownership" of her in "Bandits"



"No party for me, Reuben. My girlfriend did a tapdance on my heart."~Andrew McCarthy to bartender Reni Santoni in "Only You"



"The sun is shining~~but the ice is slippery."~the two-part code in "The Shadow"



a) "How can they keep treating us like stupid teenage girls?!"

b) "We ARE stupid teenage girls!"

a) Michelle Williams and b) Kirsten Dunst in "Dick"

NOTE: Give yourself a treat with a mini-marathon of "All the President's Men" then "Dick"~both about Nixon and Watergate. This is the funniest comedy and recreates that time period beautifully! Dan Hedaya portrays Nixon.

I know I never get picked for quotations, but I get to share some of what I've gleaned during my five-movie-a-day habit. You would *gasp* if you saw my film journal!

My Favorite Quote: 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 basketcase, a princess, and a criminal. Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, The Breakfast Club.









Quotes I like:

I wanted to see exotic Vietnam... the crown jewel of Southeast Asia. I wanted to meet interesting and stimulating people of an ancient culture... and kill them. I wanted to be the first kid on my block to get a confirmed kill!-Full Metal Jacket



The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.- Pulp Fiction



And these children

that you spit on

as they try to change their worlds

are immune to your consultations.

They're quite aware

of what they're going through...-Breakfast Club
