Waiting to Exhale, Bernadine Harris
The worst thing is that he made me move out here where my children are in school with only one other black kid so they won’t be improperly influenced. Well, guess what John, you’re the motherfuckin’ improper influence! Get your shit! Get your shit! And, get out!
Hotel Rwanda, Paul Rusesabagina
There will be no rescue, no intervention for us. We can only save ourselves.
Good Will Hunting, Will Hunting
Of course that’s your contention. You’re a first year grad student. You just got finished readin’ some Marxian historian, Pete Garrison probably. You’re gonna be convinced of that ’til next month when you get to James Lemon and then you’re gonna be talkin’ about how the economies of Virginia and Pennsylvania were entrepreneurial and capitalist [...]
Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior, Narrator
My life fades, my vision dims. All that remains are memories. I remember a time of chaos, ruined dreams, this wasted land. Most of all, I remember the man we called Max, the road warrior. To understand who he was we have to go back to the other time. When the world was powered by [...]
Clash of the Titans, Zeus
Perseus and Andromeda will be happy together. Have fine sons, rule wisely, and to perpetuate the story of his courage, I command that from henceforth, he will be set among the stars and constellations.

Dinner for Schmucks, Barry Speck
Vincent Van Gogh. Everyone said to him, “You can’t be a great painter, you only have one ear.” And you know what he said? “I can’t hear you.”
All About Eve, Addison DeWitt
We know her humility, her devotion, her loyalty to her art, her love, her deep and abiding love for us, for what we are and what we do, the theater. She has had one wish, one prayer, one dream – to belong to us. Tonight, her dream has come true. And henceforth, we shall dream [...]
Holiday, Ned Seton
Well, to begin with, it brings you to life. And after a while, you begin to know all about it. You feel, I don’t know, important. … It is. And then pretty soon, the game starts. A swell game. A terribly exciting game. You see, you think clear and crystal, but every move, every sentence [...]
Carefree, Tony Flagg
We all try to escape reality. We all wanna be something entirely different than we really are.
