Citat,

[Cole Williams confronts Micky for the first time again]

Ben Campbell:
[narrating, when we see Micky tied up in the basement of the casino]
I had a 1590 on my SAT. I got a 44 on my MCATs. And I have a 4.0 GPA from MIT. I thought I had my life mapped out. But then I remembered what my Nonlinear Equations professor once told me, always account for variable change.
Cole Williams:
[Cole Williams walks out of the shadows]
Hello, Micky.
Micky Rosa:
Look, I got money in Boston. A hundred grand. I’ll give it to you. If you just let me walk away. I’ll walk away.
Cole Williams:
I don’t want your money, Micky. I don’t need it. But I know someone who might be interested. He’s good with numbers, too. He works for the IRS.

Nyckeln till framgång

Nyckeln till framgång (1987)

Citat

[after sex]

Brantley Foster:
Can I make a personal observation?
Vera Prescott:
Um, anything but the thighs.
Brantley Foster:
You know, somebody sold you a bill of goods and convinced you you had to be 21 forever. That’s bullshit. I think you’re terrific; I think the only thing wrong with you is your husband is a jerk. You’re beautiful, you’re intelligent, you’re sensuous…
Vera Prescott:
Say that again!
Brantley Foster:
Which part?
Vera Prescott:
All of it!
[sounds of car]

Vera Prescott:
Oh, no.
Brantley Foster:
What, what is it?
Vera Prescott:
It’s the jerk.
[Brantley rushes to the window]

Vera Prescott:
My husband.
Brantley Foster:
My uncle!
Vera Prescott:
Your what?
Brantley Foster:
Oh God, that makes you…
Vera Prescott:
Auntie Vera?
Brantley Foster:
Oh! God!
[Vera laughs]

Brantley Foster:
Oh God, oh God, oh God! What’s my mother going to say? I’ve disgraced my whole family!
Vera Prescott:
Oh, the hell you did!

Livet från den ljusa sidan

Livet från den ljusa sidan (1997)

Citat, ,

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.
