Straight to the Lines from Movies ...

Movie: The Adventures of Mark Twain(1944)


Mark Twain:
There's no sadder sight than a young pessimist. Except an old optimist.



Movie: The Karate Kid, Part II(1986)


[Miyagi has given Daniel a drum toy]

Daniel:
This is the secret of your family's karate?

Mr. Miyagi:
Hai.

Daniel:
I don't get it.

Mr. Miyagi:
Practice, you will.



Movie: On the Downlow(2004)


Angel:
No use living in hell when you know where the door to Heaven is.



Movie: Only One New York(1964)


Narrator:
How beautiful these shining towers are. Architecture expresses an attitude. It reveals the psychology of the builder. It occurs to me that people who expect a bomb to fall don't build their walls of glass. A city of glass is like a declaration of peace.



Movie: Face/Off(1997)


Castor Troy:
Well, you're gonna have to shoot me, 'cause I don't really give a fuck!



Movie: Unendliche Geschichte, Die(1984)


Rock Biter:
Where-where-where I come from in the North, we used to have exquisite gourmet rocks. Only now... now, they're all gone.

Night Hob:
I know how it happened.

Rock Biter:
Oh, I - I *swear* it wasn't me!


Night Hob:
Oh, heck, no!



Movie: Mad Max 2(1981)


[first lines]

Narrator:
My life fades. The vision dims. All that remains are memories. I remember a time of chaos. Ruined dreams. This wasted land. But most of all, I remember The Road Warrior. The man we called "Max". To understand who he was, you have to go back to another time. When the world was powered by the black fuel. And the desert sprouted great cities of pipe and steel. Gone now, swept away. For reasons long forgotten, two mighty warrior tribes went to war and touched off a blaze which engulfed them all. Without fuel, they were nothing. They built a house of straw. The thundering machines sputtered and stopped. Their leaders talked and talked and talked. But nothing could stem the avalanche. Their world crumbled. The cities exploded. A whirlwind of looting, a firestorm of fear. Men began to feed on men. On the roads it was a white line nightmare. Only those mobile enough to scavenge, brutal enough to pillage would survive. The gangs took over the highways, ready to wage war for a tank of juice. And in this maelstrom of decay, ordinary men were battered and smashed. Men like Max. The warrior Max. In the roar of an engine, he lost everything. And became a shell of a man, a burnt out, desolate man, a man haunted by the demons of his past, a man who wandered out into the wasteland. And it was here, in this blighted place, that he learned to live again...



Movie: Orgazmo(1997)


Maxxx Orbison:
What's your name, again?

Sancho:
I am Sancho.

Maxxx Orbison:
Look, I get a lot of people auditioning all the time. What makes you think that you'd be good enough for porno?

Sancho:
I am Sancho.


Maxxx Orbison:
Great... but what do you do?

Sancho:
What do I do? I am Sancho.

Maxxx Orbison:
And...?

Sancho:
And there are many Jeffs in the world, and many Toms as well. But I... am Sancho.

Maxxx Orbison:
And...?

Sancho:
Are you Sancho? No you are not. Neither is Scott Baio Sancho. Frank Gifford is not Sancho. But I...

Maxxx Orbison:
You... are Sancho!

Sancho:
That's right.

Maxxx Orbison:
Okay, you're hired.




Movie: Undercover Blues(1993)


Muerte:
My name is MORTY!



Movie: Jack the Ripper (TV)(1988)


[Godley and Abberline are in a cab heading for Bucks Row]

Godley:
So what else did Old Bootface have to say?


Abberline:
Detective Chief Superintendent Arnold thinks I need a rest.

Godley:
Rest? I've never heard it called that before!

Abberline:
Anyway, I like Whitechapel.

Godley:
Oh good, cause one day they'll send you back here, permanently, end of a brilliant career.

Abberline:
Don't start George, not now.

Godley:
L Well, why do you do it, Fred? We all like a drink now and again, but give you a bottle and...

Abberline:
Alright, George, you've had your say.



Movie: Accattone(1961)


Lady at work:
We've been working since 6 o'clock this morning.

Vittorio "Accattone" Cataldi:
These rotten things can happen.
