H.I.: I tried to stand up and fly straight, but it wasn't easy with that sumbitch Reagan in the White House. I dunno. They say he's a decent man, so maybe his advisors are confused.
Mr. Blonde: Hey Joe, you want me to shoot this guy? Mr. White: [laughs] Shit... You shoot me in a dream, you better wake up and apologize.
Gordon Cooper: You boys know what makes this bird go up? FUNDING makes this bird go up. Gus Grissom: He's right. No bucks, no Buck Rogers.
Sammy: Can we play Big and Small? Grace: Is that a real game, or is that a game you just made up? Sammy: It's a real game that I just made up.
Doyle: If y'all don't shut up, I'm gonna go out of my mind. Besides, Karl here is liable to bust his spring. He's already off balance.
Karl: I don't think anything bad ought to happen to children. I think the bad stuff should be saved up for the people whose grown up. That's the way I see it.
Sabrina Fairchild: Just imagine, you press a button and factories go up, or you pick up a telephone and a hundred tankers set out for Persia, or you switch on the dictaphone and say, "Buy all of Cleveland and move it to Pittsburgh."
Stanley Kowalski: You're gonna kill who, you dumb jerk? You don't even know when you get wised up. Come on. Mitch: You don't have to wise me up.
The Donkey: [waking up] Uh... What'd I miss? What'd I miss? [suddenly notices the guards walking by] The Donkey: [trying to throw his voice] Who said that? Couldn't have been the donkey.
George: Waking up begins with saying am and now. For the past eight months waking up has actually hurt. The cold realization that I am still here slowly sets in.
Tiffany: I do this! Time after time after time! I do all this shit for other people! And then I wake up and I'm empty! I have nothing!
[Tommy receives a letter from the Board of Education] Red: You gonna open it, or stand there with your thumb up your butt? Tommy Williams: Thumb up my butt sounds better.
Rosco: [after seeing the film screw-up] The sound, its out of synchronization! R.F. Simpson: [irritated] Well tell them to fix it! Rosco: [while getting up] Yes sir, fix it!
Rooster Cogburn: [looks up at the hanging corpse] Is it Cheney? Mattie Ross: I would not recognize the soles of his feet. Rooster Cogburn: Well, you'll have to clamber up and look. I'm too old and too fat.
Homer, the aged poet: Must I give up now? If I do give up, then mankind will lose its storyteller. And if mankind once loses its storyteller, then it will lose its childhood.
Withnail: Are you the farmer? Marwood: Shut up, I'll deal with this. Withnail: We've gone on holiday by mistake. We're in this cottage here. Are you the farmer? Marwood: Stop saying that Withnail, of course he's the fucking farmer!
Withnail: This place is uninhabitable. Marwood: Give it a chance. It's got to warm up. Withnail: Warm up? We may as well sit round this cigarette. This is ridiculous. We'll be found dead in here next spring.
[They drive past some schoolgirls] Withnail: [leaning out the car window] SCRUBBERS! Schoolgirl: Up yours, grandad! Withnail: SCRUBBERS! SCRUBBERS! Marwood: Shut up. Withnail: Little tarts, they love it.
[Valiant runs up to a trolley that is about to leave. He holds up his $50 check to the conductor] Conductor: What do I look like? A bank?
Shinkichi: I have to say, it's incredible. You really look like a woman! Does make-up make men beautiful? Geisha Seitaro 'Osei' Naruto: It doesn't work on everyone. It depends on the face!
I got my influences from '70s bands - Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, blah blah blah. When I was growing up, we had all these crazy bands on the Top 40. Today, if Pink Floyd released 'Money,' it wouldn't even get played.
