I was bored so I though I would post some of my favorite quotes from the movies and
TV. Here they are...
"Bull Durham"CRASH DAVIS: Well, I believe in the
soul, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, g"ood scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing
AstroTurf and the designated hitter. I believe in the
sweet spot, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last
three days.
"The Love Guru"GURU PITKA: People may say bad things about you, but you should
never say bad things about yourself.
"Dan In Real Life"DAN BURNS: Instead of telling our young people to plan ahead, we should tell them to
plan to be surprised.
DAN BURNS: What don't I understand, Cara? Please, help me out. What is it? Is it frustrating that you can't be with this person? That there's something keeping you apart? That there's something about this person that you can connect with? And whenever you're near this person, you don't know what to say, and you say everything that's in your mind and in your heart, and you know that if you could just be together, that this person would help you become the
best possible version of yourself?
"
The Notebook"NOAH: The best love is the kind that
awakens the soul; that makes us reach for more, that plants the fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds. That's what I
hope to give you forever.
"Little Black Book"STACY: I believe we write our
own stories. And each time we think we know the end - we don't. Perhaps luck exists somewhere between the world of planning, the world of chance, and in peace that comes from knowing that you just can't know it all. You know, life's funny that way. Once you let go of the wheel, you might end up
right where you belong.
"8 Simple Rules...."CATE HENNESSY: [reading Paul's last article] Okay readers, today we're having a little pop quiz, it's multiple choice, so sharpen your number 2 pencils and put your thinking caps on. Ready? Here's a quote: "
Dad, you're an idiot." Now, contestants, this was said to me because of which of the following transgressions? A: Coming to the breakfast table wearing pajamas and black socks? B: Asking my oldest daughter if that guy I saw her talking to yesterday at school was her boyfriend? C: Referring to rapper
Fiddy Cent as "Fifty Cents"? or D: Entering the room? Okay, pencils down. Actually it was a trick question. The answer is all of the above. Now do you know how many times I called my father an idiot? Zero. Why? Because I feared him. Back then we didn't share our deep personal feelings, our deepest conversations usually revolved around the tigers bull pen. But my kids, I can't get them to shut up! There's not a feeling that my kids are afraid to express over and over and over. And my wife reassures me this is a good thing over and over and over, and she's always right. So do I wish that my kids feared me? Well my house would be quieter, and I'd spend a lot less time in the bathroom, but no. Because I know that whenever they insult me whether it's a "You're an idiot," "You're a geek," or an "I hate you," an
"I love you" isn't far behind. And it's the
knowledge that my wife and kids love me that makes it safe for me to wear pajamas and black socks to the breakfast table.
"Greys Anatomy"MEREDITH GREY: [narrating] "
Pain. You just have to ride it out. You can only hope it goes away on its own, hope the wound that caused it heals. There are no solutions, no easy answers, you just
breath deep and wait for it to subside."
MEREDITH GREY: [narrating] "I've heard that it’s
possible to grow up, I've just never met anyone who’s actually done it. Without parents to defy, we break the rules we make for ourselves. We throw tantrums when things don’t go our way. We whisper secrets with our best friend, in the dark. We look for comfort where we can find it. And we
hope against all logic, against all experience, like children, we
never give up hope."
MEREDITH GREY: Okay, here it is. Your choice, it's simple, her or me. And I'm sure she's really great. But Derek,
I love you. In a really, big really big pretend to like your taste in music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a radio over my head outside your bedroom window, unfortunate way that makes me hate you... love you. So pick me.
Choose me. Love me.
"The X-Files"SCULLY: I think the most rewarding relationships, the ones that last, are born from friendship. One day you look at the person and see more than you did the night before, like a switch was
flicked somewhere. And the person who was just a friend is suddenly the only person you can
imagine yourself with.
MULDER: All right, what you may find is you
concentrate on hitting that little ball... the rest of the world just fades away - all your everyday, nagging concerns: the ticking of your biological clock... how you probably couldn't afford that nice, new suede coat on a G-Woman's salary... how you threw away a promising career in medicine to hunt aliens with a crackpot, albeit brilliant, partner... getting into the heart of a global conspiracy... your obscenely overdue triple-X bill. Oh, I'm sorry,
Scully. Those last two problems are mine, not yours.
SCULLY: Shut up, Mulder. I'm playing
baseball.
