The 20 Favorite Movie Quotes of all time

July 28, 2007 |

When I started writing this post it was actually a much longer list. With time and format being an issue I decided to break it down into smaller parts. It easily could have ended up being Ryan’s top 2000 movie quotes of all time. This just made more sense.

“On your birthday, when you asked me to do a striptease to the theme from Mighty Mouse, I said okay. When we were at that hotel prom night, and you asked me to sleep underneath the bed in case your mother burst in, I did it. And, even when we were at my grandmother’s funeral and you told most of my relatives that you could see her nipples though her burial dress, I let it slide.”

“Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned for Sega.” -Mallrats

“I think the real obscenity comes from raising out youth to believe that sex is bad and ugly and dirty. And yet, it is heroic to go spill guts and blood in the most ghastly manner in the name of humanity. With all the taboos attached to sex, it’s no wonder we have the problems we have. It’s no wonder were angry and violent and genocidal. But, ask yourself the question, what is more obscene: sex or war?”

“Your Honor, you have not made one intelligent decision during the course of this trial, and I don’t expect one now.”

“Murder is illegal. But, you take a picture of somebody committing the act of murder and they’ll put you on the cover of Newsweek. You might even win a Pulitzer Prize. And yet . . . sex is legal. Everybody’s doing it, or everybody wants to be doing it. Yet, you take a picture of two people in the act of sex of just take a picture of a woman’s naked body and they’ll put you in jail. “–The People vs Larry Flynt

“I’ve had plenty of Joe jobs. Nothing I’d call a career. Let me put it this way, I have an extensive collection of name tags and hair nets.”

“Did you ever see the Twilight Zone where the guy signed a contract and they cut out his tongue? And, they put it in a jar, and it wouldn’t die; it just grew and pulsated and gave birth to baby tongues. Pretty cool, huh?” -Wayne’s World
