All of Boondock Saints...
Time is your friend. Impulse is your enemy. -John Bogle
Here's one of my favorite scenes:
Keating passes by Todd and the others and gets to the back of the
classroom before Todd leaps up from his seat and turns to face him.
TODD
Mr. Keating! They made everybody sign
it.
Mr. Nolan gets up from his desk and approaches Todd.
MR. NOLAN
Quiet, Mr. Anderson.
TODD
You gotta believe me. It's true.
KEATING
I do believe you, Todd.
MR. NOLAN
Leave, Mr. Keating.
TODD
But it wasn't his fault!
MR. NOLAN
Sit down, Mr. Anderson!
Todd reluctantly returns to his seat.
MR. NOLAN
One more outburst from you or anyone
else, and you're out of this school!
Leave, Mr. Keating.
Keating hesitates at the back of the classroom.
MR. NOLAN
I said leave, Mr. Keating.
Keating slowly turns and heads to the door. As he opens
it, Todd, stands upon his desk and turns to Keating.
TODD
O Captain! My Captain!
MR. NOLAN
Sit down, Mr. Anderson!
Keating pauses at the door and looks back at Todd on his desk.
MR. NOLAN
Do you hear me? Sit down! Sit down! This
is your final warning, Anderson. How
dare you? Do you hear me?
After a moment of indecision, Knox climbs up onto his desk.
KNOX
O Captain! My Captain!
MR. NOLAN
Mr. Overstreet, I warn you! Sit down!
Pitts climbs up onto his desk, followed by several others,
including Meeks.
MR. NOLAN
Sit down! Sit down. All of you. I want
you seated. Sit down. Leave, Mr.
Keating.
More students stand on their desks until half the class is standing.
MR. NOLAN
All of you, down. I want you seated. Do
you hear me?
MR. NOLAN
Sit down!
Keating stands in the doorway, staring up at the boys in wonder. A
smile comes to his face.
KEATING
Thank you, boys. Thank you.
Now on a lighter side:
3 EXTERIOR - DAY
ARTHUR and PATSY riding. They stop and look. We see a castle in the
distance, and before it a PEASANT is working away on his knees trying
to dig up the earth with his bare hands and a twig. ARTHUR and
PATSY ride up, and stop before the PEASANT
ARTHUR
Old woman!
DENNIS
Man!
ARTHUR
Man. I'm sorry. Old man, What knight live in that castle
over there?
DENNIS
I'm thirty-seven.
ARTHUR
What?
DENNIS:
I'm thirty-seven ... I'm not old.
ARTHUR:
Well - I can't just say: "Hey, Man!'
DENNIS
Well you could say: "Dennis"
ARTHUR
I didn't know you were called Dennis.
DENNIS
You didn't bother to find out, did you?
ARTHUR
I've said I'm sorry about the old woman, but from the behind
you looked ...
DENNIS
What I object to is that you automatically treat me like
an inferior ...
ARTHUR
Well ... I AM king.
DENNIS
Oh, very nice. King, eh! I expect you've got a palace and fine
clothes and courtiers and plenty of food. And how d'you get that?
By exploiting the workers! By hanging on to outdated imperialist
dogma which perpetuates the social and economic differences in our
society! If there's EVER going to be any progress ...
An OLD WOMAN appears.
OLD WOMAN
Dennis! There's some lovely filth down here ... Oh!
how d'you do?
ARTHUR
How d'you do, good lady ... I am Arthur, King of the Britons ...
can you tell me who lives in that castle?
OLD WOMAN
King of the WHO?
ARTHUR
The Britons.
OLD WOMAN
Who are the Britons?
ARTHUR
All of us are ... we are all Britons.
DENNIS winks at the OLD WOMAN.
... and I am your king ....
OLD WOMAN
Ooooh! I didn't know we had a king. I thought we were
an autonomous collective ...
DENNIS
You're fooling yourself. We're living in a dictatorship,
A self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working classes ...
OLD WOMAN
There you are, bringing class into it again ...
DENNIS
That's what it's all about ... If only -
ARTHUR
Please, please good people. I am in haste. What knight lives in
that castle?
OLD WOMAN
No one live there.
ARTHUR
Well, who is your lord?
OLD WOMAN
We don't have a lord.
ARTHUR
What?
DENNIS
I told you, We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune, we take
it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week.
ARTHUR
Yes.
DENNIS
... But all the decision of that officer ...
ARTHUR
Yes, I see.
DENNIS
... must be approved at a bi-weekly meeting by a simple majority
in the case of purely internal affairs.
ARTHUR
Be quiet!
DENNIS
... but a two-thirds majority ...
ARTHUR
Be quiet! I order you to shut up.
OLD WOMAN
Order, eh -- who does he think he is?
ARTHUR
I am your king!
OLD WOMAN
Well, I didn't vote for you.
ARTHUR
You don't vote for kings.
OLD WOMAN
Well, how did you become king, then?
ARTHUR
The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite,
held Excalibur aloft from the bosom of the water to signify by
Divine Providence ... that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur ...
That is why I am your king!
|
| OLD WOMAN
| Is Frank in? He'd be able to deal with this one.
|
DENNIS
Look, strange women lying on their backs in ponds handing out
swords ... that's no basis for a system of government. Supreme
executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from
some farcical aquatic ceremony.
ARTHUR
Be quiet!
DENNIS
You can't expect to wield supreme executive power
just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!
ARTHUR
Shut up!
DENNIS
I mean, if I went around saying I was an Emperor because some
moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, people would
put me away!
ARTHUR
(Grabbing him by the collar)
Shut up, will you. Shut up!
DENNIS
Ah! NOW ... we see the violence inherent in the system.
ARTHUR
Shut up!
PEOPLE (i.e. other PEASANTS) are appearing and watching.
DENNIS
(calling)
Come and see the violence inherent in the system.
Help, help, I'm being repressed!
ARTHUR
(aware that people are now coming out and watching)
Bloody peasant!
(pushes DENNIS over into mud and prepares to ride off)
DENNIS
Oh, Did you hear that! What a give-away.
ARTHUR
Come on, patsy.
They ride off.
DENNIS
(in the background as we PULL OUT)
did you see him repressing me, then? That's what I've
been on about ...
Gotta edit this one for content. From Scent of a Woman:
Lt. Col. Frank Slade: Out of order, I show you out of order. You don't know what out of order is, Mr. Trask. I'd show you, but I'm too old, I'm too tired, I'm too f*****' blind. If I were the man I was five years ago, I'd take a FLAMETHROWER to this place! Out of order? Who the hell do you think you're talkin' to? I've been around, you know? There was a time I could see. And I have seen. Boys like these, younger than these, their arms torn out, their legs ripped off. But there isn't nothin' like the sight of an amputated spirit. There is no prosthetic for that. You think you're merely sending this splendid foot soldier back home to Oregon with his tail between his legs, but I say you are... executin' his soul! And why? Because he's not a Bairdman. Bairdmen. You hurt this boy, you're gonna be Baird bums, the lot of ya. And Harry, Jimmy, Trent, wherever you are out there, F*** YOU TOO!
Time is your friend. Impulse is your enemy. -John Bogle
Lt. Col. Frank Slade: Clear them little bottles off. And when I get off the phone here, call up Hyman and tell him I want it wall to wall with John Daniels.
Charlie Simms: Don't you mean Jack Daniels?
Lt. Col. Frank Slade: He may be Jack to you son, but when you've known him as long as I have... that's a joke.
Time is your friend. Impulse is your enemy. -John Bogle
Friday:
when smokey stand over red and says "u got knocked the f out!"
when ezell says" i aint gonna tell nobody else!"
LORI - you cheated
GUS - Well I won't say I did and I won't say I didn't, but I will say this. Any man that wouldn't cheat for a poke, don't want one bad enough.
Now, someone write down the beginning of Full Metal Jacket when they are in the barracks.
How about the pizza delivery to Mr. Hand's room in Fast Times at Ridgemont High?

Boondock Saints:
Connor: Now you will receive us.
Murphy: We do not ask for your poor, or your hungry.
Connor: We do not want your tired and sick.
Murphy: It is your corrupt we claim.
Connor: It is your evil that will be sought by us.
Murphy: With every breath, we shall hunt them down.
Connor: Each day we will spill their blood, 'til it rains down from the skies.
Murphy: Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace.
Connor: These are not polite suggestions, these are codes of behavior, and those of you that ignore them will pay the dearest cost.
Murphy: There are varying degrees of evil. We urge you lesser forms of filth, not to push the bounds and cross over, in to true corruption, into our domain.
Connor: For if you do, one day you will look behind you and you will see we three, and on that day you will reap it.
Murphy: And we will send you to whatever god you wish.
Time is your friend. Impulse is your enemy. -John Bogle
And my favorite line from that movie (can't remember if it is the same scene or not:Originally Posted by johnnylightnin
"My hypocrisy knows no bounds."
Team America: World Police
Speech following Alec Baldwin:
"There are three kinds of people......

A couple of scenes:
Kingdom of Heaven...
"This is your oath, --slap--, and this is so you remember it!"
"What man is a man who does not make the world better."
"God will understand, my lord. And if he doesn't, then he is not God and we need not worry."
Closing scene when Saladin has taken the surrendered Jerusalem, he is walking thru a palace and comes across a gold Crucifix. The Muslim leader leans down and lifts the Crucifix and sets it upon the table, pauses, looks at it and walks away. --Very powerful scene IMO
The Illusionist:
His last performance and the following sequence of events where the detective figures everything out. --Muche like the Usual Suspects or Oceans' Eleven
My favorite from Tombstone
