Movie Wisdom

[NowhereMan]

Minor necro (it was on the second page *gasp*) but the films you should see just reminded me of a very appropriate quote:

"Free to those who can afford it, very expensive to those who can't" Withnail & I

[Fargull]

Language was developed for one endeavor, and that is - Mr. Anderson? Come on, are you a man or an amoeba?

Mr. Perry?

To communicate.

No! To woo women!

Dead Poets Society

[Ozzu]

Goodfellas:

"You know, we always called each other good fellas. Like you said to, uh, somebody, :You're gonna like this guy. He's all right. He's a good fella. He's one of us.: You understand? We were good fellas. Wiseguys. But Jimmy and I could never be made because we had Irish blood. It didn't even matter that my mother was Sicilian. To become a member of a crew you've got to be one hundred per cent Italian so they can trace all your relatives back to the old country. See, it's the highest honor they can give you. It means you belong to a family and crew. It means that nobody can fuck around with you. It also means you could fuck around with anybody just as long as they aren't also a member. It's like a license to steal. It's a license to do anything. As far as Jimmy was concerned with Tommy being made, it was like we were all being made. We would now have one of our own as a member."

and more Fight Club for good measure:

"Now, a question of etiquette - as I pass, do I give you the ass or the crotch?"

Narrator: "When people think you're dying, they really, really listen to you, instead of just..."
Marla Singer: "- instead of just waiting for their turn to speak?"

"I'm all out of heroes, man. Guys like you are in short supply."  The Insider

[Rendakor]

"The condom is the glass slipper of our generation. You slip one on when you meet a stranger. You dance all night, then you throw it away. The condom, I mean. Not the stranger" ~Fight Club

"When I was your age they would say we can become cops, or criminals. Today, what I'm saying to you is this: when you're facing a loaded gun, what's the difference?" ~The Departed

[Samwise]

"Just because I don't know what it is doesn't mean I'm lying." - Strange Brew

[ahoythematey]

"Music, you know... true music, not just rock and roll...it chooses you. It lives in your car, or alone, listening to your headphones, with the vast scenic bridges and angelic choirs in your brain."
"The only true currency in this bankrupt world... is what you share with someone else when you're uncool."
- Lester Bangs in Almost Famous

Actually, now that I think about it, almost everything Lester Bangs says in that movie seems wise.  I should check to see if the real Lester Bangs said anything close.
