Steve Martin as Harris

David Oyelowo as Djonjo
- am tired of hatred, Doctor Garrigan. This country is drowning in it. We deserve better. Go home. Tell the world the truth about Amin. They will believe you; you are a white man.
David Oyelowo as Djonjo
- Let me tell you, if I could be anything instead of a Ugandan, I would be a Scot. Except for the red hair, which I'm sure is attractive to your women, but which we Africans, we find is quite disgusting.
Forest Whitaker as Idi Amin

Daniel Day-Lewis as Hawkeye
- You be strong, you survive. You stay alive, no matter what occurs! I will find you. No matter how long it takes, no matter how far, I will find you.
Daniel Day-Lewis as Hawkeye
The Last Starfighter (1984)

Dan O'Herlihy as Grig
- Teriffic. I'm about to get killed a million miles from nowhere with a gung-ho iguana who tells me to relax.
Lance Guest as Alex Rogan
- Alex! Alex! You're walking away from history! History, Alex! Did Chris Columbus stay home? Nooooo. What if the Wright Brothers thought that only birds should fly? And did Galoka think that the Ulus were too ugly to save?
Robert Preston as Centauri
- Death is a primitive concept. I prefer to think of them as battling evil, in another dimension.
Dan O'Herlihy as Grig

Willem Dafoe as Jesus

- With Major Lawrence, mercy is a passion. With me, it is merely good manners. You may judge which motive is the more reliable.
Alec Guinness as Prince Feisal
- So long as the Arabs fight tribe against tribe, so long will they be a little people, a silly people - greedy, barbarous, and cruel, as you are.
Peter O'Toole as T.E. Lawrence
- No Arab loves the desert. We love water and green trees. There is nothing in the desert and no man needs nothing.
Alec Guinness as Prince Feisal
- A thousand Arabs means a thousand knives, delivered anywhere day or night. It means a thousand camels. That means a thousand packs of high explosives and a thousand crack rifles. We can cross Arabia while Johnny Turk is still turning round, and smash his railways. And while he's mending them, I'll smash them somewhere else. In thirteen weeks, I can have Arabia in chaos.
Peter O'Toole as T.E. Lawrence

Rosie O'Donnell as Doris Murphy
- If we paid you a little bit more, Jimmy, do you think you could be just a little more disgusting?
David Strathairn as Ira Lowenstein
- Uh, Lord, hallowed be Thy name. May our feet be swift; may our bats be mighty; may our balls... be plentiful. Lord, I'd just like to thank You for that waitress in South Bend. You know who she is - she kept calling Your name. And God, these are good girls, and they work hard. Just help them see it all the way through. Okay, that's it.
Tom Hanks as Jimmy Dugan

Lean On Me (1989)
- Discipline is not the enemy of enthusiasm.
Morgan Freeman as Joe Clark
- They said this school was dead - like the cemetery it's built on, but we call our Eastside teams 'Ghosts,' don't we? And what are ghosts? Ghosts are spirits that rise from the dead. I want you to be my ghosts. You are going to lead our resurrection by defying the explanation that all of us are doomed to failure. My motto is simple. If you do not succeed in life, I don't want you to blame your parents, I don't want you to blame the white man, I want you to blame yourselves. The resposibility is yours!
Morgan Freeman as Joe Clark
- Forget about the way it used to be. This is not a damn democracy! We are in a state of emergency and my word is law!

Morgan Freeman as Joe Clark
Legally Blonde (2001)

Reese Witherspoon as Elle Woods
- The rules of hair care are simple and finite. Any Cosmo girl would have known.
Reese Witherspoon as Elle Woods
- I just don't think that Brooke could've done this. Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don't shoot their husbands, they just don't.
Reese Witherspoon as Elle Woods
- Hi. I'm Elle Woods and this is Bruiser Woods. We're both Gemini vegetarians.
Reese Witherspoon as Elle Woods
- Oh, sweetheart, you don't need law school. Law school is for people who are boring and ugly and serious. And you, button, are none of those things.
James Read as Elle's Father
- She could use some mascara and some serious highlights, but she's not completely unfortunate looking.
Reese Witherspoon as Elle Woods

Jim Carrey as Count Olaf
- Nothing happens by coincidence.
Liam Aiken as Klaus Baudelaire
- Do you think anything will ever feel like home again?

- Don't point that gun at him, he's an unpaid intern.
Bill Murray as Steve Zissou
- You really think it's cool for you to hit the sauce with a bun in the oven?
Bill Murray as Steve Zissou
- Supposedly Cousteau and his cronies invented the idea of putting walkie-talkies into the helmet. But we made ours with a special rabbit ear on the top so we could pipe in some music.
Bill Murray as Steve Zissou
- You don't know me, you don't want to know me. I'm just a character in your stupid film.
Owen Wildon as Ned Plimpton
Life of Brian (1979)
- All right, but apart from the sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?
John Cleese as Reg

John Cleese as Reg
- I am NOT the Messiah!
Graham Chapman as Brian
- He's not the Messiah. He's a very naughty boy!
Terry Jones as Brian's Mother
- Always look on the bright side of life.
(crucifixion song)
Lilies of the Field (1963)
- Gringo? I don't know if that's a step up or a step down from some other things I've been called.
Sidney Poitier as Homer Smith
- A man, he gives wood, bricks. In time, what does he get? A chapel - a place where his children can receive the sacraments. To these men, for their children to have faith, it is important. To me, it is insurance. To me, life is here on this earth. I cannot see further, so I cannot believe further. But, if they are right about the hereafter, I have paid my insurance, Senor.
Stanley Adams as Juan
Lilo & Stitch (2002)
- This is my family. I found it, all on my own. Is little, and broken, but still good. Yeah, still good.
Chris Sanders as Stitch
- Ohana means family, family means nobody gets left behind. Or forgotten.
Daveigh Chase as Lilo
- Thus far, you have been adrift in the sheltered harbor of my patience.
Ving Rhames as Mr. Cobra Bubbles
- You were built to destroy; you can never belong. Now come quietly and we will take you apart.
David Ogden Stiers as Jumba
- His destructive programming is taking effect. He will be irresistibly drawn to large cities, where he will back up sewers, reverse street signs, and steal everyone's left shoe.
David Ogden Stiers as Jumba

- In a world where carpenters get resurrected, everything is possible.
Katharine Hepburn as Eleanor
- Oh God, but I do love being king!
Peter O'Toole as Henry II
- My life, when it is written, will read better than it lived. Henry Fitz-Empress, first Plantagenet, a king at twenty-one, the ablest soldier of an able time. He led men well, he cared for justice when he could and ruled, for thirty years, a state as great as Charlemagne's. He married out of love, a woman out of legend. Not in Alexandria, or Rome, or Camelot has there been such a queen. She bore him many children. But no sons. King Henry had no sons. He had three whiskered things but he disowned them
Peter O'Toole as Henry II
- Kings, queens, knights everywhere you look and I'm the only pawn. I haven't got a thing to lose - that makes me dangerous.
Jane Merrow as Princess Alais
- I've snapped and plotted all my life. There's no other way to be alive, king, and fifty all at once.
Peter O'Toole as Henry II
- Of course he has a knife, he always has a knife, we all have knives! It's 1183 and we're barbarians! How clear we make it. Oh, my piglets, we are the origins of war: not history's forces, nor the times, nor justice, nor the lack of it, nor causes, nor religions, nor ideas, nor kinds of government, nor any other thing. We are the killers. We breed wars. We carry it like syphilis inside. Dead bodies rot in field and stream because the living ones are rotten. For the love of God, can't we love one another just a little - that's how peace begins. We have so much to love each other for. We have such possibilities, my children. We could change the world.
Katharine Hepburn as Eleanor
- I am a constant soldier, a sometimes poet and I will be king.
Anthony Hopkins as Prince Richard
Little Big Man (1970)
- Do you see this fine thing? Do you admire the humanity of it? Because the human beings, my son, they believe everything is alive. Not only man and animals. But also water, earth, stone. And also the things from them... like that hair. The man from whom this hair came, he's bald on the other side, because I now own his scalp! That is the way things are. But the white man, they believe EVERYTHING is dead. Stone, earth, animals. And people! Even their own people! If things keep trying to live, white man will rub them out. That is the difference.
Chief Dan George as Old Lodge Skins
- Nothing in this world is more surprising than the attack without mercy!
Richard Mulligan as General Custer
- Today is a good day to die.
Chief Dan George as Old Lodge Skins
- There is an endless supply of white men. There has always been a limited number of human beings.

The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner (1962)
- Running's always been a big thing in our family, especially running away from the police.
Tom Courtenay as Colin Smith
- It's not that I don't like work. It's just that I don't like the idea of slaving me guts out so the bosses can get all the profits. Seems all wrong to me.
Tom Courtenay as Colin Smith
The Longest Day (1962)
- The thing that's always worried me about being one of the few is the way we keep on getting fewer.
Richard Burton as Flight Officer David Campbell
- He's dead. I'm crippled. You're lost. Do you suppose it's always like that? I mean war.
Richard Burton as Flight Officer David Campbell
- This is history. We are living an historical moment. We are going to lose the war because our glorious Führer has taken a sleeping pill and is not to be awakened. Sometimes I wonder which side God is on.
Curd Jürgens as Major General Gunther Blumentritt
- A landing at Normandy would be against military logic. It would be against ALL logic.
Paul Hartmann as Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt
The Longest Yard (1974)
- Most of these old boys don't have nothing. Never had nothing to start with. But you, You had it all. Then you let your teammates down, got yourself caught with your hand in the cookie jar.
James Hampton as Caretaker
- All I'm saying is that you could have robbed banks, sold dope or stole your grandmother's pension checks and none of us would have minded. But shaving points off of a football game, man that's un-American.
James Hampton as Caretaker
- You take your football down here real serious, don't you?
Burt Reynolds as Paul Crewe
- The most important thing to remember is: to protect your quarterback - ME!
Burt Reynolds as Paul Crewe
- Alright men, now here's the play we're gonna use. I don't think the guards know this formation. It's called 'incidental punishment after the ball is blown dead.' Remember, any man you tackle gets an elbow, knee, or kick in the mouth.
Harry Caesar as Granville
Lost in Translation (2003)
- I was feeling tight in the shoulders and neck, so I called down and had a Shiatsu massage in my room. And the tightness has completely disappeared and been replaced by unbelievable pain.
Bill Murray as Bob
- It gets a whole lot more complicated when you have kids. The most terrifying day of your life is the day the first one is born.
Bill Murray as Bob
- Let's never come here again because it will never be as much fun.
Scarlett Johansson as Charlotte
Love Actually (2003)
- Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around.
Hugh Grant as Prime Minister
- Life is full of interruptions and complications.
Rodrigo Santoro as Karl
- We've been given our parts in the nativity play. And I'm the lobster.
Lulu Popplewell as Daisy
- The trouble with being the Prime Minister's sister is it does put your life into rather harsh perspective. What did my brother do today? He stood up and fought for his country. And what did I do? I made a papier maché lobster head.
Emma Thompson as Karen
- You know, Sammy, I'm sure she's unique and extraordinary, but the general wisdom is that, in the end, there isn't just one person for each of us.
Liam Neeson as Daniel
Love Story (1970)
- Love means never having to say you're sorry.
Ryan O'Neal as Oliver Barrett IV
