The sad thing about the Germans bombing Pearl Harbor line is that are a lot of under-25s who just don't get it. So someone will make a perfectly nice use of it on a sports board, someone else replies with 'Forget it, he's rolling. ' and then a person who knows nothing about classic comedies goes off on a rant about people who don't get history.

Robert Duvall's character in Second Hand Lion.
Hub: Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things a man needs to believe in the most. That people are basically good; that honor, courage, and virtue mean everything; that power and money, money and power mean nothing; that good always triumphs over evil; and I want you to remember this, that love... true love never dies. You remember that, boy. You remember that. Doesn't matter if it's true or not. You see, a man should believe in those things, because those are the things worth believing in.
Hood 1: Hey, who do you think you are, huh?
Garth: Just a dumb kid, Hub. Don't kill him.
Hub: Right.
[Grabs Hood 1 by the throat]
Hub: I'm Hub McCann. I've fought in two World Wars and countless smaller ones on three continents. I led thousands of men into battle with everything from horses and swords to artillery and tanks. I've seen the headwaters of the Nile, and tribes of natives no white man had ever seen before. I've won and lost a dozen fortunes, KILLED MANY MEN and loved only one woman with a passion a FLEA like you could never begin to understand. That's who I am. NOW, GO HOME, BOY!

M'Lynn: Her colors are "pink" and pink."
Shelby: My colors are "blush" and "bashful" Mama!
M'Lynn: How pretentious is this weddin' gonna get, I ask you?
This applies to most bad days in life:
Ouiser Boudreaux: This is it, I've found it, I'm in hell.
Ouiser Boudreaux: The only reason people are nice to me is because I have more money than God.
Ouiser Boudreaux: I'm not as sweet as I used to be.

Of course "Cool Hand Luke" -
Captain: You gonna get used to wearin' them chains after awhile, Luke. Don't you never stop listenin' to them clinking, cause they gonna remind you of what I've been saying -- for your own good.
Luke: I wish you'd stop being so good to me, Cap'm.
Captain: Don't you ever talk that way to me. Never! Never!

Love love love the movie Jeffrey, BB this is a must see if you haven't seen it.
[Regarding his brush with Mother Theresa]
Jeffrey: She looked good.
Sterling: Please, she's had work done.
Darius: Who's Martha Stewart?
Sterling: She writes picture books about gracious living. Martha says that nothing else matters if you can do a nice dried floral arrangement. I worship her.
Darius: And, um, who's Ann Miller?
Sterling: Leave this house.
Sterling: [putting on a red shawl] Can I do this, or will I look like some sort of gay superhero?
[Father Dan has just tried to kiss Jeffrey]
Jeffrey: Wait! You're really a priest?
Father Dan: Of course.
Jeffrey: But... I mean, aren't you supposed to be straight and celibate?
Father Dan: Maybe you didn't hear me. I'm a CATHOLIC priest. Historically, that falls somewhere between chorus boy and florist.
Skip Winkley: Who is your biggest sexual fantasy?
Barney's Waiter: [wipes the side of his mouth seductively] Den-ZEL Washington.
Jeffrey: The guy at the gym.
Sterling: Yoko Ono.
[everyone looks at Sterling with a suprised look]
Sterling: To see the apartment!

Armand: You're not a woman.

I'm not a big war movie fan, but I loved Band of Brothers.
Here are a few quotes I can post and a link for the ones I can't.
2nd Lt. George Rice: Looks like you guys are going to be surrounded.
Richard Winters: We're paratroopers, Lieutenant. We're supposed to be surrounded.
Richard Winters: We're not lost, Private... we're in Normandy.
Richard Winters: Captain Sobel, we salute the rank, not the man.
