Not a movie but The Outsider. Sensing something ominous is afoot, Claude (Paddy Considine) leaves town to meet his brother. "....Cant ever seem to sleep these days. Im jumping out of bed a half dozen times a night...double...triple checking the locks on the door and the windows...its like theres someone there in the apartment with me or outside trying to get in.." "Ever catch anyone?" Asks the brother. "Nope," says Claude. "...Its like when you're in prison...you know when something is about to go down...but you dont know what...where...or when....but you know for a fact that its going to be as bad as it gets..." "Yep," replies the brother. "I hear ya."

Thomas meets Meg on his long walk home... "What is it, Meg?..." Very nice. But I prefer this one from the same script: "But, gentlemen of the jury, there are many kinds of silence. Consider first the silence of a man who is dead. Let us suppose we go into the room where he is laid out, and we listen: what do we hear? Silence. What does it betoken, this silence? Nothing; this is silence pure and simple. But let us take another case. Suppose I were to take a dagger from my sleeve and make to kill the prisoner with it; and my lordships there, instead of crying out for me to stop, maintained their silence. That would betoken! It would betoken a willingness that I should do it, and under the law, they will be guilty with me. So silence can, according to the circumstances, speak! Let us consider now the circumstances of the prisoner's silence. The oath was put to loyal subjects up and down the country, and they all declared His Grace's title to be just and good. But when it came to the prisoner, he refused! He calls this silence. Yet is there a man in this court - is there a man in this country! - who does not know Sir Thomas More's opinion of this title? Yet how can this be? Because this silence betokened, nay, this silence was, not silence at all, but most eloquent denial!"

I still remember 2 wonderful bits of dialogue uttered by the great and now late Max Von Sydow from my favorite Woody Allen movie, Hannah and Her Sisters 1 - "You see the whole culture. Nazis, deodorant salesmen, wrestlers, beauty contests, a talk show. Can you imagine the level of a mind that watches wrestling? But the worst are the fundamentalist preachers. Third grade con men telling the poor suckers that watch them that they speak with Jesus, and to please send in money. Money, money, money! If Jesus came back and saw what's going on in his name, he'd never stop throwing up." I use that last line all the time and change it around a bit, like "If the Founding Fathers came back...", etc. 2 - "You missed a very dull TV show on Auschwitz. More gruesome film clips, and more puzzled intellectuals declaring their mystification over the systematic murder of millions. The reason they can never answer the question "How could it possibly happen?" is that it's the wrong question. Given what people are, the question is "Why doesn't it happen more often?"

Robin Williams in his best role in Goodmorning Vietnam, the greatest retort you can give anyone who uses excessive abbreviations. "...Seeing as how the V.P is such a V.I.P, shouldn't we keep the P.C on the Q.T? 'Cause if it leaks to the V.C he could end up M.I.A, and then we'd all be put out in K.P...."
