Lui:
Some years from now, when I have forgotten you and other romances like this one have recurred through sheer habit, I will remember you as a symbol of love’s forgetfulness. This affair will remind me how horrible forgetting is.

Melvin Udall:
Now, I got a real great compliment for you, and it’s true.
Carol Connelly:
I’m so afraid you’re about to say something awful.
Melvin Udall:
Don’t be pessimistic, it’s not your style. Okay. Here I go. Clearly a mistake.
[shifts in his seat uncomfortably]
Melvin Udall:
I’ve got this, what, ailment? My doctor, a shrink that I used to go to all the time, he says that in fifty or sixty percent of the cases, a pill really helps. I hate pills. Very dangerous thing, pills. Hate. I’m using the word ”hate” here, about pills. Hate. My compliment is, that night when you came over and told me that you would never… all right, well, you were there, you know what you said. Well, my compliment to you is, the next morning, I started taking the pills.
Carol Connelly:
I don’t quite get how that’s a compliment for me.
Melvin Udall:
You make me want to be a better man.
[pause]
Carol Connelly:
[stunned]
That’s maybe the best compliment of my life.
Melvin Udall:
Well, maybe I overshot a little, because I was aiming at just enough to keep you from walking out.
Maya:

Quite frankly, I didn’t even want to use you guys, with your dip and velcro and all your gear bullshit. I wanted to drop a bomb. But people didn’t believe in this lead enough to drop a bomb. So they’re using you guys as canaries. And, in theory, if bin Laden isn’t there, you can sneak away and no one will be the wiser. But bin Laden is there. And you’re going to kill him for me.
Wrigley:
Uh, I’ll just have a, um, salad, please. Um, baby field greens.
Nero’s Waitress:
What did you call me?
Wrigley:
Uh, no, I-I… I-I didn’t call you anything.
Nero’s Waitress:
You want a salad?
Wrigley:
Yeah. Do you… Do you have a, uh, green salad?
Nero’s Waitress:
What the fuck color would it be?

James Bond:
The whole office goes up in smoke and that bloody thing survives.
M:
Your interior decorating tips have always been appreciated, 007.
Mr. Fitzhugh: Shouldn't we be avoiding law enforcement? I never saw an episode of Matlock where the criminal banged Matlock!
Walter Lovell:
The thing is, you can’t take away one terrible thing you did any more than you can take away the millions of beautiful things that we had together. That’s a million to one. If you can live with that ratio for another few years, then so can I.
Frodo:
I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.
Gandalf:
So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you were also meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought.
Barry Gibb:
I am beginning to recognize the fact that nothing is true. Nothing. It’s all down to perception.

Christina ’Chris’ Cotter:
[sitting on the dock next to each other looking out at the ocean]
I’ll be asleep, and all the sudden there he is, that big smile. You know that smile. And I say, ’Hey, Bobby – where you been?’ but he won’t tell me. He just smiles and says, ’Remember, Christina: I’ll always love you; I loved you the moment I saw you; I love you now; and I love you forever. There’s no goodbyes – there’s only love, Christina; only love. Then he’s gone. But he’s always happy when he goes so I know he’s got to be okay – absolutely okay.
Ethel Shatford:
[holds her hand]
I love your dream.
Billy’s voice:
The fog’s just lifting. Throw off your bow line; throw off your stern. You head out to South channel, past Rocky Neck, Ten Pound Island. Past Niles Pond where I skated as a kid. Blow your air-horn and throw a wave to the lighthouse keeper’s kid on Thatcher Island. Then the birds show up: black backs, herring gulls, big dump ducks. The sun hits ya – head North. Open up to 12 – steamin’ now. The guys are busy; you’re in charge. Ya know what? You’re a goddam swordboat captain! Is there any thing better in the world?
