Well it's more of a speech thanm a line, but easily one of the best moments I've ever seen in a film.
- from The Count of Monte Cristo -

Edmond Dantes: Young Albert has made for too much of the assistance I gave him in Rome. When I arrived in the catacombs I watched as the criminals who tied Albert to a wall and threatened to cut off his finger and send it to his father as evidence of his abduction. The boys reply to all this was, "Do your worst." Life is a storm my young friend, you will bask in the sunlight one moment be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes. You must look into the storm and shout as you did in Rome. Do your worst, for I will do mine. Then the Fates will know you as we know you, as Albert Mondego, the man.

Jack: 'Rose, you must promise me you will never let go.'
Rose: 'I will never let go, Jack.'

This is a first stanza from a movie that God used to temper the hearts of, perhaps even hardened hearts of very wealthy men (Dreamworks threesome: Katzenerg of Disney animation fame, Spielberg, and, Geffen of blocbusters like 'Gremlins.')

'Many nights we prayed, with no proof anyone could hear.
In our hearts, a hopeful song we nary understood.
Now we are not afraid though there is much to fear.
We were moving mountains long before we knew we could.

Who knows what miracles you can achieve when you believe.'
-- The Prince of Egypt movie , a song in it sang by Miriam, who placed baby Moses in basket and floated him down the river.

'I can hold my breath for a Lo-o-o-o-ng time.'
-Creepshow, 1982 movie trilogy. In one of the short stories, a guy gets buried UP to his head in the sand from someone's act of revenge. And the words are exclaimed by this helpless man with each wave rushing in, putting his head more and more into the water.

Ok, one more...
'Way to go, Paula, way to go.'
--Officer And A Gentleman, 1979, part where a shouting, clapping Paula's friend, who helped her own Air Force boy friend commit a horrifying act on self when she breaks UP with him when he (David Keith is actor) decides he doesn't't want to be an A.F. officer, watches Richard Gere (an Air Force officer just became) swoop Paula (Debra Winger) UP as she's working in a factory and the two had what looked like a relationship ending argument a day or two earlier. So, Gere swoop her up in his opened arms and carries her off to the music, 'He'll lift you UP where you belong, where the eagles fly on the mountainside...'

This is a GREAT movie for putting into a God perspective, BECAUSE...He WILL lift us UP if we just stay true to Him in our lives, giving us the desires of our heart and our wait meaning great 'eagle' things in the end Isaiah 40:31.

“No, I don’t think I will kiss you, although you need kissing, badly. That’s what’s wrong with you. You should be kissed and often, and by someone who knows how.” - Gone with the Wind

"Blessed be the Lord my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight." - Saving Private Ryan

"No mam. We at the FBI do not have a sense of humor we're aware of" - Men in Black

“Me? I’m scared of everything. I’m scared of what I saw, I’m scared of what I did, of who I am, and most of all I’m scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life the way I feel when I’m with you.” - Dirty Dancing

“…If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love … I love … I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.” Pride & Prejudice

“He’s the sort who can’t know anyone intimately, least of all a woman. He doesn’t know what a woman is. He wants you for a possession, something to look at, like a painting or an ivory box. Something to own and to display. He doesn’t want you to be real, and to think and to live. He doesn’t love you. But I love you. I want you to have your own thoughts and ideas and feelings, even when I hold you in my arms. It’s our last chance.” - A Room with a View

"The list is long, but distinguished." Goose - Top Gun

What's funny is that I was going to post just this part when I saw yours and didn't want to be a copycat :) : Life is a storm my young friend, you will bask in the sunlight one moment be shattered on the rocks the next.

I spent the whole summer reading the original book, then I saw the movie I was quite upset that they messed around with the plot as they did. But yes you're right, that is a good line.

I can't think of an amazingly intelligent and inspiring line from all the movies Ive seen so I'll give you a line I saw on a tv ad for a movie that made me choke on a drink and die laughing

"Im so smart it hurts!!" - Yogi Bear

From "Airplane" (1980):


Dr. Rumack: Captain, how soon can you land?

Captain Oveur: I can't tell.

Dr. Rumack: You can tell me. I'm a doctor.

Captain Oveur: No. I mean I'm just not sure.

Dr. Rumack: Well, can't you take a guess?

Captain Oveur: Well, not for another two hours.

Dr. Rumack: You can't take a guess for another two hours?



Elaine Dickinson (flight attendant on the mic): There's no reason to become alarmed, and we hope you'll enjoy the rest of your flight. By the way, is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane?

the social network!!!

Mark Zuckerberg: As for any charges stemming from the breach of security, I believe I deserve some recognition from this board.
Ad Board Chairwoman: I'm sorry?
Mark Zuckerberg: Yes?
Ad Board Chairwoman: I don't understand.
Mark Zuckerberg: Which part?

i like those (quotes/lines or whatever it is) from the social network :D


Gage: Mr. Zuckerberg, do I have your full attention?
Mark Zuckerberg: [stares out the window] No.
Gage: Do you think I deserve it?
Mark Zuckerberg: [looks at Gage] What?
Gage: Do you think I deserve your full attention?
Mark Zuckerberg: I had to swear an oath before we began this deposition, and I don't want to perjure myself, so I have a legal obligation to say no.
Gage: Okay - no. You don't think I deserve your attention.
Mark Zuckerberg: I think if your clients want to sit on my shoulders and call themselves tall, they have the right to give it a try - but there's no requirement that I enjoy sitting here listening to people lie. You have part of my attention - you have the minimum amount. The rest of my attention is back at the offices of Facebook, where my colleagues and I are doing things that no one in this room, including and especially your clients, are intellectually or creatively capable of doing.
[pauses]
Mark Zuckerberg: Did I adequately answer your condescending question?


Marylin Delpy: What are you doing?
Mark Zuckerberg: Checking in to see how it's going in Bosnia.
Marylin Delpy: Bosnia. They don't have roads, but they have Facebook.
[Mark says nothing]
Marylin Delpy: You must really hate the Winklevosses.
Mark Zuckerberg: I don't hate anybody. The "Winklevii" aren't suing me for intellectual property theft. They're suing me because for the first time in their lives, things didn't go exactly the way they were supposed to for them.

From Top Gun:

Jester: That was some of the best flying I've seen to date - right up to the part where you got killed.

Slider: Goose, whose butt did you kiss to get in here anyway?
Goose: The list is long, but distinguished.

Carole: Hey, Goose, you big stud!
Goose: That's me, honey.
Carole: Take me to bed or lose me forever.
Goose: Show me the way home, honey.

“I killed the president of Paraguay with a fork. How have you been?” — Grosse Pointe Blank

Aaaah...I completely forgot about Martin Blank!

"Martin Q. Blank: What about you? Joined the force, huh?
Terry Rostand: Oh no, I'm not a peace officer. Yeah, this badge isn't a meaningful symbol. We don't enforce the law, we just execute company policy for homeowners.
Martin Q. Blank: Oh, right... you mind talking a little shop?
Terry Rostand: Sure.
Martin Q. Blank: When are you authorized to use deadly force?
Terry Rostand: Oh well, you know, taxes provide your basic services, you know, police and whatnot, but our customers, they need a little bit more than that, so we catch you on the property, we do what we have to do.
Martin Q. Blank: So, if I just look suspicious on your customers' property - under those, you know, "heightened circumstances" - you have the authority to shoot me?
Terry Rostand: Correct.
Martin Q. Blank: Wow, all right. How'd you get the gig?
Terry Rostand: Oh, well, they were hiring. And it was only a two-week course."


"[practicing in a mirror before his high school reunion]
Marty: Hi. I'm, uh, I'm a pet psychiatrist. I sell couch insurance. Mm-hmm, and I - and I test-market positive thinking. I lead a weekend men's group, we specialize in ritual killings. Yeah, you look great! Hi, how are you? Hi, how are you? Hi, I'm Martin Blank, you remember me? I'm not married, I don't have any kids, but I'd blow your head off if someone paid me enough."
