Lady Bracknell: Mr. Worthing. I must confess that I feel somewhat bewildered by what you have just told me. To be born, or at any rate bred in a handbag, whether it have handles or not, seems to me to display a contempt for the ordinary decencies of family life which reminds one of the worst excesses of the French revolution, and I presume you know what that unfortunate movement led to?​

- The Importance of Being Earnest (Yes, I know it was a play first, but I wanted to quote it...)

Lady Bracknell: You seem to be displaying signs of triviality.
Jack: On the contrary, Aunt Augusta. I've now realized for the first time in my life the vital importance of being Ernest.​

Catharine Sloper: Yes, I can be very cruel. I have been taught by masters.



Austin Sloper: You have found a tongue at last, Catherine. 'Tis only to say such terrible things to me.

Catherine Sloper: Yes. This is a field where you will not compare me to my mother. ​

Faye Dunaway - Mommie Dearest:

"NO MORE HANGERS!"

Every time I watch that scene, I feel like they should be playing Psycho music in the background - those screaming "wheeeee wheeeeee" violin sounds from the shower scene... (shudder!)

Sorry, haven't read all the posts to see if these have already been mentioned, but here are mine (all from one of my favourite movies, "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest") .....

McMurphy: Which one of you nuts has got any guts?

--------------------------------------------------

Chief Bromden: My pop was real big. He did like he pleased. That's why everybody worked on him. The last time I seen my father, he was blind and diseased from drinking. And every time he put the bottle to his mouth, he don't suck out of it, it sucks out of him until he shrunk so wrinkled and yellow even the dogs didn't know him.

McMurphy: Killed him, huh?

Chief Bromden: I'm not saying they killed him. They just worked on him. The way they're working on you.

--------------------------------------------------

McMurphy: I must be crazy to be in a loony bin like this.

--------------------------------------------------

McMurphy: I'm a goddamn marvel of modern science.

--------------------------------------------------

Nurse Ratched: Aren't you ashamed?

Billy: No, I'm not.

Nurse Ratched: You know Billy, what worries me is how your mother is going to take this.

Billy: Um, um, well, y-y-y-you d-d-d-don't have to t-t-t-tell her, Miss Ratched.

Nurse Ratched: I don't have to tell her? Your mother and I are old friends. You know that.

Billy: P-p-p-please d-d-don't tell my m-m-m-mother.

(I so wanted to jump into the movie and kick that bitch in the head at that point!)

--------------------------------------------------

McMurphy: What are you doin' here? You oughta be out in a convertible bird-doggin' chicks and bangin' beaver.

--------------------------------------------------

McMurphy: They was giving me ten thousand watts a day, you know, and I'm hot to trot! The next woman takes me on's gonna light up like a pinball machine and pay off in silver dollars!

--------------------------------------------------

McMurphy: She was fifteen years old, going on thirty-five, Doc, and she told me she was eighteen, she was very willing, I practically had to take to sewing my pants shut. Between you and me, uh, she might have been fifteen, but when you get that little red beaver right up there in front of you, I don't think it's crazy at all and I don't think you do either. No man alive could resist that, and that's why I got into jail to begin with. And now they're telling me I'm crazy over here because I don't sit there like a goddamn vegetable. Don't make a bit of sense to me. If that's what being crazy is, then I'm senseless, out of it, gone-down-the-road, wacko. But no more, no less, that's it.

--------------------------------------------------

McMurphy: What do you think you are, for Chrissake, crazy or somethin'? Well you're not! You're not! You're no crazier than the average asshole out walkin' around on the streets and that's it.

--------------------------------------------------

Dr. Spivey: Well, the real reason that you've been sent over here is because they wanted you to be evaluated... to determine whether or not you are mentally ill. This is the real reason. Why do you think they might think that?

McMurphy: Well, as near as I can figure out, it's 'cause I, uh, fight and fuck too much.

--------------------------------------------------

McMurphy: Well I don't wanna break up the meeting or nothin', but she's somethin' of a cunt, ain't she Doc?

--------------------------------------------------

Harding: I'm not just talking about my wife, I'm talking about my LIFE, I can't seem to get that through to you. I'm not just talking about one person, I'm talking about everybody. I'm talking about form. I'm talking about content. I'm talking about interrelationships. I'm talking about God, the devil, Hell, Heaven. Do you understand... FINALLY?

--------------------------------------------------

McMurphy: I can't take it no more. I gotta get outta here.

Chief Bromden: I can't. I just can't.

McMurphy: It's easier than you think, Chief.

Chief Bromden: For you, maybe. You're a lot bigger than me.

--------------------------------------------------

And there are many more such memorable moments from this wonderful movie .... Definitely Jack Nicholson's crowning achievement!

 

[ozguy]

Also loved this 'divinely decadent' moment from "Cabaret" (my favourite movie of all time) ....

Brian: Oh screw Maximilian!

Sally Bowles: I do.

Brian[after a moment]: So do I.

A few from The Blues Brothers

Elwood "Shit"
Jake "What?"
Elwood "Rollers"
Jake "No"
Elwood "Yes"
Jake "Shit"

Jake "You swapped the Caddy for a police car?"
Elwood "No I swapped it for a microphone"

Mr Fabulous "the soup is fucking ten dollars"

Good Ole Boy "your going to look pretty funny trying to eat corn on the cob with no fucking teeth!"

"The use of unnecessary force in the aprehension of the Blues Brothers has been approved"

Noxeema: When a straight man puts on a dress to get his sexual kicks, he is a transvestite. When a man is a woman, trapped in a mans body and has the little operation, he is a transsexual, and when a gay man has way too much fashion sense for one gender he is a drag queen.... and when a tired little latin boy puts on a dress, he is, a boy in a dress.

>>>>>>>>>>>

Noxy: Look at her, running like shes running across the border.

Vita : Sure you may start out a mere boy in a dress but by the time we are done with this crusade your Auntie Vita and Auntie Noxy will give you,.... The outrageous outlook and indomitable spirit it will take to make you a full fledged queen.... Now you turn your swayback little self around on those Robert Clargerie knock offs and get back in this car.

Vita: Internal Combustion, the ultimate accessory.

Vita: OOOH I feel like miss Jane Mansfield in this car.
Noxy: oh Jane Mansfield, not a good auto reference.


Some of my favourite lines from To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything. Julie Newmar

Crystal Allen: There is a name for you, ladies, but it isn't used in high society... outside of a kennel. "

Joan Crawford in "The Women" (1939).

If remade today she'd just storm off saying "bitches". I guess censorship was at least good for making screenwriters make an extra effort writing a good, clever line.

 

[jsd62]

"Can I do this? Or does it make me look like some sort of gay superhero?"

"Oh, what in gay hell?"
