Going to the Movies

If you read on you will find some of my favorite movie lines.

1. Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. [Matthew "Ferris" Broderick in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off."]

2. The kid gets it all. Just plant us in the damn garden, next to the stupid lion. [Josh "Walter" Lucas, reading the uncles' will in "Secondhand Lions.]

3. Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies. [Tim "Andy" Robbins in a letter to Morgan "Red" Freeman in "The Shawshank Redemption."]

4. I never dreamed that any mere physical experience could be so stimulating! [Katherine "Rose" Hepburn to Humphrey "Charlie" Bogart in "The African Queen."]

5. You're too old and fat to be jumping horses. {Kim "Mattie" Darby to John "Rooster" Wayne in "True Grit."]

6. Fill your hands! [John "Rooster" Wayne to Robert "Ned" Duvall in "True Grit."]

7. No grit, Rooster Cogburn? Not much! (Mattie in "True Grit.")

8. It ain't dyin' I'm talkin' about...it's livin'. [Robert "Gus" Duvall to Tommy Lee "Woodrow" Jones in "Lonesome Dove."]

9. Comes down to a pretty simple choice. Get started living, or get started dying. [Tim "Andy" Robbins in "The Shawshank Redemption."]

10. Promise me. Whatever happens, don't let them eat my dog. [Tom "Lewis" Berenger to Barbara "Lillian" Hershey in "The Last of the Dogmen."]

11.  George made a bed; he's expecting to get laid.  [Kyra "Lace" Sedgwick] No, just hoping.
[John "George" Travolta] in Phenomenon.

12.  Am I right?  I'm right.  You all go to hell! [Robert "Doc" Duvall in Phenomenon.]

"Get on your horse, Jasper, we got cattle to drive!"

Incidentally, I think that line in #10  woud have been a great place to end the movie. Too many flicks pass a good ending line and sometimes even two or three of them before it fizzles out. What are your favorite cinematic quotes?
