Thread of movie quotes only...?

A few from 99 Francs:

- An advertising copywriter is a maker of marketable aphorisms.

- The world isn't real, except when it sucks.

- After all humanity has done for him, God could at least have had the decency to exist, don't you think?

- Everything can be bought: love, art, the Earth, you, me.

- The euro has been invented to make the rich's salary six times less indecent.

(Frédéric Beigbeder, the main character)
 
You sure do got a pertty mouth. You're gonna do some praying for me boy!

Get up, boy. I bet you can squeal. I bet you can squeal like a pig.


Mister, I love the way you wear that hat

1: what the hell you wanna go **** around with that river for? 2: Because it's there. 1: It's there alright. You get in there and can't get out, you gonna wish it wasn't. (full quote)
 
This appears to be turning into a 'post your favourite movie quotes/show off your movie knowledge cred' thread. :p

We should start a structure where you answer the previous question and ask a new question with two seperate quotes in each post. (bonus points if you use one quote and it still makes sense)

Thoughts?

Anyway:

'means buckle your seatbelt Dorothy, cos Cansas is goin' byebye' Cypher - The Matrix

'So, they don't have last names in your world?' Kirk - Star Trek
 
Bonfire of the Vanities

Judge Leonard White: Racist? You dare call me racist? Well I say unto you, what does it matter the color of a man's skin if witnesses purjure themselves, if a prosecutor enlists the perjurers, when a district attorney throws a man to the mob for political gain, and men of the cloth, men of God, take the prime cuts? Is that justice? Let me tell you what justice is. Justice is the law. And the law is man's feeble attempt to set down the principles of decency. Decency! And decency is not a deal, it isn't an angle, or a contract, or a hustle! Decency... decency is what your grandmother taught you. It's in your bones! Now you go home. Go home and be decent people. Be decent. (expertly delivered by Morgan Freeman)


Big Trouble in Little China

Jack Burton: When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail."

Jack points to the wall
Jack Burton: Hollow?
Wang Chi: Hollow.
Jack Burton: F*** it.
Jack wacks open the hollow wall with his knife
 
Hombre (1967)

Grimes: Mister, you've got a lot of hard bark on you walkin' down here like this. Now, I owe you. You put two holes in me.
John Russell: Usually enough for most of 'em.
Grimes: Don't try it again, that Vaquero is more than a fair hand.
Grimes: You got the money?
John Russell: Guess I brought my dirty laundry down by mistake.
Grimes: Let me see it.
John Russell: Look for yourself.
Grimes: [opens bag, pulls out a handful of clothes] Well now, what'ya suppose hell's gonna look like?
John Russell: We all die, just a question of when. )-(
