I got tagged in a facebook note today (thanks, Britt!) and it gave me an idea to put up some of my favorite movies in the form of great quotes from them...now, I'm not saying it is a good or a not so good idea, just that it is. So here they are, in no particular order (I don't want one movie to feel bad cause it's further down on the list--each are equally important, if not equally loved...) Also, some movies have inspired me to add more than one quote---they're just THAT good. And it's happening. Now.
1-"Johnny Tyler, I forgot you were there. You may go now."
2-"Help me, Oprah Win-i-frey! Help me, Tom Cruise and your scientology!"
3-"What fer? There's only three little ones!"
4-"Follow me please." "Til the ends of the earth"
5-"I swallowed a watermelon. ?"
6-"I'm just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her."
7-"I'm your huckleberry."
8-"Might I lend a machete to your intellectual thicket?"
9-"But you have heard of me?"
10-"Sweep the leg."
11-" I have not yet begun to defile myself"
12-"If I thought you weren't my friend, I don't think I could bear it."
13-"I stand corrected; you're an oak."
14-"Sato--why you have hate in heart?"
15-"Say I'm a bird." "If you're a bird, I'm a bird."
16-"My cup runneth over."
17-"Mommy, the rhino is getting too close to the car!"
18-"You stink, Justin Matese!"
19-"Nobody puts Baby in a corner."
20-"Rob--you were there."
21-"Mostly, I'm afraid of walking out of here and never feeling about anyone the way I feel about you."
22-"Toe-pick!"
23-"Things will change when my sons arrive.' 'You have sons?' 'Not yet. I was hoping you'd help me with that.' 'Is that your idea of a proposal?' 'Well it's a bit quick, but okay. I love you. Always have."
24-"I'm not mad. I'm just.....pissed off."
25-"You better pray to the god of skinny punks that this wind doesn't pick up or I'm gonna come over there and shove an oar up your a*#."
26-"I think everyone should walk around with signs.' 'What would your sign say?' 'Yes."
27-"Baby, do you think it's possible that anyone else in the world is doing this very same thing at this very same moment?' 'I hope so. Otherwise what the hell are we trying to save?"
28-"No matter what happens in the next 5 minutes, just know that when I saw you, my heart leaped."
29-"It's so early, you guys wanna go get some coffee or something?"
30-"I'll come around and fix that squeak in your door."
31-"Ah, youth"
32-"You don't believe in all this cold fusion mumbo jumbo do you?"
33-"Let's just say you're doing it for an old pal in the army."
34-"I'm a very happy man.' 'You're happy for the wrong reasons and it's the same as being lonely and miserable except it's worse."
35-"I stand with Adam.' 'Well, don't stand too close, boy."
36-"When what's left of you gets to what's left to be gotten, what's left to be gotten won't be worth getting whatever it is you've got left.' 'When I figure that out, I'll come up with a crushing reply."
37-"You can get a good look at a t-bone steak by sticking your head up a cow's a#&, but wouldn't you rather take the butcher's word for it?"
38-"Not so much as 'Kiss my foot' or 'Have an apple."
39-"Why? It wasn't over for me. I waited for you for seven years. And now it's too late.' 'I wrote you every day for a year. It wasn't over. It still isn't over."
40-"I'm worth more than Calvin Coolidge....put together."
41-"I could go at any time."
42-"Get me outta this stinkin fresh air!"
43-"I've got two guns...one for each of ya."
44-"Are you a MexiCAN or a MexiCAN'T?"
45-"I'm not saying I'd like to build a summer home here, but the trees are actually quite lovely."
46-"Female bandits? Poppycock!"
47-"Did you just say 'skulk'?"
48-"Not round. Here."
49--"Why are you here? You should be in bed.' 'Wyatt Earp is my friend.' 'Hell, I got lots of friends.' 'I don't."
.......and one of my very favorite movie quotes of all time:
50-"Will you just stay with me?'
'What for? Look at us, we're already fighting.'
'Well, that's what we do. We fight. You tell me when I'm being an arrogant son of a b*&^% and I tell you when you're being a pain in the a*%. I'm not afraid of hurting your feelings.'
'So what?'
'So it's not gonna be easy. It's gonna be really hard. And we're gonna have to work at this every day, but I want to do that, because I want you. I want all of you, forever, you and me, every day."
I'm definitely sure I'll be adding to this list, and if anyone has anything to add, be sure to let me know! Wow. That was FUN!
*****SPOILER ALERT*****

About Me
- Melanie & David
- I am daughter, sister, friend, counselor, coworker, niece, caretaker, and world-famous aunt (well, maybe not yet, but someday I will be!) And in September I added wife and stepmother to my titles....I'm loving these new ones! In October 2011 I became a mom to an angel baby, Mercy Faith, whose wings took her straight back to heaven. November 2012 we had the unparalleled joy of becoming the parents to our sweet baby girl, Journey Rose, who has added love, joy and amazement to our lives! I try every day to be kinder, stand higher, love deeper, laugh harder and dream bigger than the day before. One of my favorite sayings is "Women who behave rarely make history". So with that in mind, I do my best to BE, STAND, LOVE, LAUGH and DREAM with a mischievious smile on my face and a wink in my eye! I love my life...in short, it's everything I never knew I always wanted...
Ok, love you Mel. This made me laugh and cry but I hate you right now too because I need the list of movies. There were a couple that I know I know but can't place. So go ahead, ADD THE LIST (screaming like a maniac being driven crazy by the misplacement of a basic piece of knowledge in my brain). Thanks, Love you
ReplyDeleteOk, girl, you asked for it! I'll get it up as soon as possible! Love you too!
