Peter Gibbons: What would you do if you had a million dollars?
Lawrence: I’ll tell you what I’d do, man: two chicks at the same time, man.
Peter Gibbons: That’s it? If you had a million dollars, you’d do two chicks at the same time?
Lawrence: Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I were a millionaire I could hook that up, too; ‘cause chicks dig dudes with money.
Peter Gibbons: Well, not all chicks.
Lawrence: Well, the type of chicks that’d double up on a dude like me do.
Peter Gibbons: Good point.
Drat, there’s a very similar question with some great quotes, but I can’t find it…...
@johnpowell, do you remeber the question? I seem to recognize your quote from before.

@AstroChuck… Couldn’t agree more!
There was a similar question; wonderful quotes from Mae West, Humphrey Bogart, the last dialog in Some Like it Hot between Jack Lemon and Joe E Brown (quoted rapturously by SRM), Lauren Bacall, WC Fields, Abbott and Costello, Cary Grant, Audrey Hepburn. I can’t find it either.
“It’s not the years, honey, it’s the mileage.”

Reply: “How could the train be lost? It’s on wheels!
Bette Davis: ALL ABOUT EVE; “Fasten your seat belts. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride.”
My favorite quote from the silent movie era -

Homer Simpson: Spider Pig! Spider Pig! Does whatever a Spider Pig does! Can he swing from a web? No he can’t he’s just a pig!
@gail-
Joe E. Brown: “Well, nobody’s perfect.”
Can anyone find the earlier question? I am really frustrated. So many terrific answers there. Astro: Indeed, that was the final memorable line; Steve Morgan showed us the entire proposal scene. And I can’t find the question. That’s the trouble with the tag system .

You can turn your back on a person, but, never turn your back on a drug. Especially when it’s waving a razor-sharp hunting knife in your eye.

“Now I have a message for all you good, moral Christian people who are complaining that breasts and vaginas are obscene. Hey, don’t complain to me. Complain to the manufacturer, okay. And, although Jesus told you not to judge, I know you’re going to judge away. So judge sanely. Judge with your eyes open. What do you consider obscene? Is this obscene to you?” -

“Nobody puts Baby in the corner” – this isn’t really a favorite, i just saw someone wearing a shirt saying this today. From the movie Dirty Dancing of course.
I just didn’t get the point of posting a picture of a Star Wars creature on here.
because it was his quote.—_—ya know in a thread talking about movie quotes.

My opinion only. For part two of the question, I find the earlier quotes are better crafted, more embedded in the cultural consciousness and more elegant than a lot of the new ones. Check out the link I listed above for some permanent parts of the cinema history – not just recent ones. Viz: (for you, Bri_L)
“Why don’t you come up and see me some time.”
“We’ll always have Paris.”

@wizard: The character the says it in the film? Admiral Ackbar? ... Nevermind. Hehehe. :)
Where does this come from? “It’s a fair cop.” I hear this on a lot of British television shows.
I saw a commercial and thought it was hilarious. But I thought you all saw the movie, so I changed it around a bit as a joke.

The point is, ladies and gentleman, that greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right, greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of its forms; greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge has marked the upward surge of mankind.
