Ash: Ripley, for God's sake, this is the first time that we've encountered a species like this. It has to go back. All sorts of tests have to be made. Ripley: Ash, are you kidding? This thing bled acid. Who knows what it's gonna do when it's dead? As...
Aladdin: [singing] Riffraff, street rat. I don't buy that. If only they'd look closer. Would they see a poor boy? No, siree! They'd find out there's so much more to me. Aladdin: [sighs, no longer singing] Someday, Abu, things are gonna change. We'll ...
Batman: Falcone sent them to kill you. Rachel Dawes: Why? Batman: You rattled his cage. [throws photos of Judge Faden with prostitutes] Rachel Dawes: What's this? Batman: Leverage. Rachel Dawes: For what? Batman: To get things moving. Rachel Dawes: W...
Johanna: What's it feel like when you dive? Jacques: It's a feeling of slipping without falling. The hardest thing is when you're at the bottom. Johanna: Why? Jacques: 'Cause you have to find a good reason to come back up... and I have a hard time fi...
Lenny at 13: [after Tommy gives Lenny the block buster] Wait a minute, I'm not touching this thing. Look how small the fuse is. I'll get busted. Evan Treborn at 13: [puts a cigarette on the block buster] Here. That should give you two minutes. Lenny ...
Marty McFly: Whoa. Wait a minute, Doc. Are you trying to tell me that my mother has got the hots for me? Dr. Emmett Brown: Precisely. Marty McFly: Whoa. This is heavy. Dr. Emmett Brown: There's that word again. "Heavy." Why are things so heavy in the...
Walter Sobchak: Those rich fucks! This whole fucking thing... I did not watch my buddies die face down in the muck so that this fucking strumpet... The Dude: I don't see any connection to Vietnam, Walter. Walter Sobchak: Well, there isn't a literal c...
Ray: So Harry Waters wants me dead. What a wanker. Ken: He said this whole trip, this whole being in Bruges thing, was just to give you one last, joyful memory before you died. Ray: [Absolutely stunned] In BRUGES? The Bahamas, maybe. Why fucking Brug...
Connor: Donna's gonna be angry about her cat. Rocco: Shit. She's on every drug known to man. She'd have sold the thing for a dime-bag. Screw her. [laughs] Rocco: I do kinda feel like an asshole, though. Connor: Yeah, Roc, you sound real remorseful th...
Abby: I said, "Marty, how come you're anal, and *I* gotta go to the psychiatrist?" Ray: What'd he say? Abby: Nothing. He's like you, he doesn't say much. Ray: Thanks. Abby: Except when he doesn't say things, they're usually nasty. When you don't, the...
Russell James asked me to shoot underwater. He tied my feet under the water. I don't know how many feet - maybe five, six meters. He tied me underwater and I had no air. Somebody had a tube, and they were giving me some oxygen, but I couldn't really ...
If I commit suicide, it will not be to destroy myself, but to put myself back together again. Suicide will be for me only one means of violently reconquering myself, of brutally invading my being, of anticipating the unpredictable approaches of God. ...
The thing to do with mutual funds is to buy a couple of decent ones, set up an investment plan and then never, ever think about them again, except maybe once a quarter or so when you take a peek at your statements to make sure that you have not accid...
The notion that before you even set out to go to Thailand, you say, 'I'm not interested,' or you're unwilling to try things that people take so personally and are so proud of and so generous with, I don't understand that, and I think it's rude. You'r...
Development of Western science is based on two great achievements: the invention of the formal logical system (in geometry) by the Greek philosophers, and the discovery of the possibility to find out causal relationships by systematic experiment (dur...
I do not want to recollect. I should be afraid of preventing the future and of allowing the past to encroach on me. It is out of the utter forgetfulness of yesterday that I create every new hour's freshness. It is never enough for me to have been hap...
People think of me as a stereotype: muse, privileged, decorative. Classically, the muses were the inspiration. They'd come and go - they wouldn't actually make things, get their hands dirty. I don't think I'm a muse, although I think I can help pull ...
I was a daughterless mother. I had nowhere to put the things a mother places on her daughter. The nail polish I used to paint our toenails hardened. Our favorite videos gathered dust. Her small apron was in a box in the attic. Her shoes - the sparkly...
Yes, he had made a good choice after all when he had chosen the God of the green pasture and the still waters! He was very powerful, and the fact that He expected you to think for yourself and do something in return for His help did not matter, as lo...
I think because I did become a well-known face in my thirties and not in my twenties, I was pretty settled in my boots and I knew who I was. And I think there's a sort of Scottish thing, too, where you don't take yourself too seriously, and you don't...
I don't trust people. The good part is, i don't really have to. I've surrendered my faith to the Higher power, and it's unconditional love for me. Who am i to question it's motives? Even if there are things i can't understand. This is why there's no ...
