Browsing the channels this eve and noted that Indiana Jones - Raiders of the Lost Ark is on and made me think of one of my favourite quotes. It’s actually from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and it’s when he looks at Willie through the hole in the enclosing cave with such a look of fear / urgency / what-the-hell-are-you-doing-woman and says “we…are going…to die!”

tickles me every time!

For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be.

Quite frankly my dear I don't give a damn

‘My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die’.

I really like the old ones, though; ‘Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn’ and ‘Tomorrow is another day’ from Gone With the Wind, and ‘I’m asking you to marry me, you little fool’ from Rebecca.

Another Erin Brockovich one (so many good quotes from this film but I love this one)

George asks for her phone number so he can take her out on a date...she asks which number do you want?

George:
How many numbers you got?
Erin Brockovich:
Oh, I got numbers comin' outta my ears. For instance: ten.
George:
Ten?
Erin Brockovich:
Yeah. That's how many months old my baby girl is.
George:
You got a little girl?
Erin Brockovich:
Yeah. Yeah, sexy, huh? How 'bout this for a number? Six. That's how old my other daughter is, eight is the age of my son, two is how many times I've been married -- and divorced; sixteen is the number of dollars I have in my bank account. 850-3943. That's my phone number, and with all the numbers I gave you, I'm guessing zero is the number of times you're gonna call it.

“I’m a donkey on the edge”

Shrek, best quote ever. Regularly quote it when I’m about to loose the plot. 😂😂

Haha yeah me too!

Or the ultimate night in quote... We can stay up all night swapping manly stories, and in the morning, I'm making waffles!!

The Third Man...

Harry Lime: In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.

When the DCs were small and we'd go to puppet shows, this line from Being John Malkovich often floated through my head ...

Maxine: Tell me a little about yourself.
Craig Schwartz: Well, I'm a puppeteer...
Maxine: [turns to bartender] Check!

And the other wonderful interstellar one:

Case “It’s not possible”

Cooper ”No, it’s necessary”

I think about this line when things feel really hard and it helps me to crack on with stuff.

About half the script of Pride.

"Where are my lesbians?"

"Listen, we don't mind the gays, and the lesbians, that's fine. But don't you dare be bringing people from North Wales down here!"

"Dai? Your gays have arrived".

"I don't mind taking more, Hefina. Not the lesbians so much, because of their cuisine, but I'll take an extra gay."

Star Wars

Luke Skywalker : Well, more wealth than you can imagine! Han Solo : I don't know, I can imagine quite a bit.
