Many people think Spain is... HERE. On the other hand, there is a school of thought that claims Spain is... HERE. Those people too are wrong. So where is Spain? It could be here... here... here...
Money can't buy knives. Seriously, I walked into a cutlery store the other day and said, "Here, here's a hundred thousand dollars, can I buy a knife?" And they said no, "Money can't buy knives."

"Grapes? I HATE grapes! I hate green grapes I hate purple grapes I hate grapes with seeds I hate grapes without seeds. I hate them peeled and non-peeled. I hate them in bunches, one at a time and in groups of twos and threes. I F-ING HATE GRAPES!!!!"
If you can get that quote I will be very impressed.

quote: I have no idea to this day what those two Italian ladies were singing about. Truth is, I don't wanna know. Some things are best left unsaid. I like to think they were singing about something so beautiful it can't be expressed in words, and makes your heart ache because of it. I tell you, those voices soared higher and farther than anybody in a gray place dares to dream. It was like some beautiful bird flapped into our drab little cage and made those walls dissolve away, and for the briefest of moments, every last man at Shawshank felt free.
quote:Salvation lies within.
quote:Red, I do believe you're talking out of your ass.

-Shawshank Redemption
quote:John: Why do you have to point out how stupid everyone is all the time? Charlotte: I just thought it was funny.
quote:Charlotte: I'm Lost.
quote:Bob : It gets a whole lot more complicated when you have kids. Charlotte : It's scary. Bob : The most terrifying day of your life is the day the first one is born. Charlotte : Nobody ever tells you that. Bob : Your life, as you know it... is gone. Never to return. But they learn how to walk, and they learn how to talk... and you want to be with them. And they turn out to be the most delightful people you will ever meet in your life. Charlotte : That's nice.
quote:Charlotte : Let's never come here again because it will never be as much fun.
-Lost in Translation
quote:Andrew Largeman: You know that point in your life when you realize that the house that you grew up in isn't really your home anymore? All of the sudden even though you have some place where you can put your stuff that idea of home is gone.
Sam : I still feel at home in my house.
Andrew Largeman : You'll see when you move out it just sort of happens one day one day and it's just gone. And you can never get it back. It's like you get homesick for a place that doesn't exist. I mean it's like this right of passage, you know. You won't have this feeling again until you create a new idea of home for yourself, you know, for you kids, for the family you start, it's like a cycle or something. I miss the idea of it. Maybe that's all family really is. A group of people who miss the same imaginary place.
quote:Sam : You're in it right now, aren't you?
Andrew Largeman : What?
Sam : My mom always says that, when she can see i'm like working something out in my head, she's like, 'you're in it right now' and I'm looking at you're telling this story, and you're definitely in it.
quote:Sam : OK, so... I lie. I mean, I'm weird, man. About completely random stuff too, I don't even know why. It's like a tick or something, you know? Sometimes I'll hear myself say something and think to myself, "Wow, that wasn't even REMOTELY true."

If I were ever going to buy a desk set, twice, I would probably buy this one, both times. In fact, it's shape is rather aerodynamic, isn't it? You can feel it. This desk set wants to fly. Todd, the world first unmanned flying desk set.

quote:There are only four questions of value in life, Don Octavio. What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for? And what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same: only love.
I always have the hardest time deciding what the best way to punctuate that quotation is.

You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for twelve hours. When it was all over I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end...

Oh, and one more quote, from a video game this time, but hey, might as well post it.
quote:Kadeshi Ambassador: This is the Garden of Kadesh. For thirteen generations we have protected it from the unclean. The Turanic Raiders who came before you refused to join and were punished for this trespass. Like theirs, your ship has already defiled this holy place. If you have come to join, we welcome you and will spare your ship until all have disembarked. If you have come to consume the garden, you will be removed at once. What are your intentions?
Kushan Ambassador: We were unaware of the significance of this location. We mean you no conflict. Please allow us time to prepare our engines so we may withdraw as requested.
Kadeshi Ambassador: If you will not join, then die. There is no withdrawal from the Garden.

This routine actually saved me from being beaten to a pulp in High School:
Lou Costello: You want to fight? Sarge: What? C: You heard me, You want to fight. S: Yeah. Yeah, I want to fight. C: Ok, be outside in five minutes, S: I'll be there. C: And you better come alone. S: I'll be alone. C: YOu better come alone. S; Oh, I'll be alone alright. C: You'll be alone? S: Yeah! I'll be alone! C: You bet you'll be alone, bacause I'm not going to be there. Costello turns and leaves. Sarge looks confused. Audience laughs.
You're In The Army Now
I played Costello, as the idiot wanting to pick on me after lunch fed me the Sarge's lines without realizing it. As I left the cafeteria laughter and applause kept the idiot from chasing me down and beating me to a pulp.

Wolf : No, no! "Rare" implies dangerously cooked. When I say rare I mean just let it look at the oven in terror, then bring it out to me.
Various: Suck an elf!
Wolf : Don't worry, I'm not who I used to be. I've had extensive therapy. I realize that I have been using food as a substitute for love and I have the books to prove it - "Breaking the Cycle", "Heal Yourself in 7 Days", "Stop Blaming Yourself, Please", and "Help for the Bedwetting Child", which I think I picked up by mistake.
Wolf : I get the feeling you still don't completely trust me. Virginia : I don't trust you at all! You tried to eat my Grandmother.

Grigori, I recognize a few of your quotations, but not all. 4 sounds familiar, possibly The Devil's Advocate or The Rapture. 6 is The Fifth Element. 7 is Raiders of the Lost Ark. 9 is Pulp Fiction. 3 and 10 are bugging me because I know I've heard them but I can't remember where.
