"Ooh!  It damn well hurts!"

"Certainly it hurts."

"Well, what's the trick, then?"

"The trick, William Potter, is not minding that it hurts."

"Did you ever hear Admiral Tarrant go on about the war? About the chosen few who have to lay it on the line?"

"Naw, me and Nester don't do too much fraternizing with admirals."
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

"Hey, Carl.  How'd you like to be my faithful sidekick, Diego Santana?  Wanted for train robbery in three territories."
  "I am?"
"Railroad Pinkertons are hot on our trail, amigo."
  "How do I be Diego?"
"Well, for starters, lose the bunny hop."

That's the first decent *expletive deleted*it I've passed in three weeks.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Samuel Adams

"So, you're a formerly dead black model, who is now suddenly a living white hobo after spending the weekend on the moon. Is that correct?"

"Yes, that's correct."

"So I was listening. And you are Neil Armstrong after the sex change operation. Is this correct?"

"No, that is not correct. You were not listening at all."

I see now I should have tagged my quotations with a film title. I can no longer remember the source of some of them.

This one I posted in late December, but don't recall where it came from.

Quote
"I want to die."

"You'd like that, wouldn't you? Just lie around in a coffin all day, with nothing to do."

Or this one. I think it's Audrey Hepburn, but from where?

"Three Little Pirates"
Can we dispense with the formalities and make with the gifts?
