Quotes from Season of Life:

Ehrmann: What is our job as coaches?

Ehrmann: What is your job?
Football Players: To love each other.

Ehrmann: What breeds terrorism? It’s relationally driven. It’s hatred. It’s prejudice. It’s religious intolerance. It’s racism. We live in a world that just breeds this stuff

A Margarettown quote...

The Prestige quotes...

More Sweeney Todd quotes...

Sweeney Todd: I can guarantee the closest shave you'll ever know.

Sweeney Todd: [holding up one of his razors] At last! My arm is complete again!

Sweeney Todd: 15 years gone on a false charge, 15 years spent dreaming I might come home to a wife and child.
Mrs. Lovett: Well, I can't say the years have been particularly kind to you Mr. Barker.
Sweeney Todd: No, not Barker, that man is dead, it's Todd now, Sweeney Todd and he will have his revenge.

Judge Turpin: Oh yes... such practices. The Geishas of Japan, the concubines of Siam, the catamites of Greece, the harlots of India. I have them all here, drawings of them. Everything you've ever dreamed of doing with a woman. Would you like to see?
Anthony Hope: I think there's been some mistake.
Judge Turpin: I think not. You gandered at my ward, Johanna. You gandered at her. YES, sir, you gandered!
Anthony Hope: I meant no harm.
Judge Turpin: Your meaning is immaterial. Mark me! If I see your face again on this street, you'll rue the day you were born.

Sweeney Todd: And who is it to be said is your intended, sir?
Judge Turpin: My ward... and pretty as a rosebud.
Sweeney Todd: Pretty as her mother?
Judge Turpin: [confused] Wha... what was that?
Sweeney Todd: Nothing. Nothing, sir. May we proceed?

Judge Turpin: How seldom it is one meets a fellow spirit.
Sweeney Todd: With fellow tastes... in women at least.
Judge Turpin: [unsettled] What's that?
Sweeney Todd: The years, no doubt, have changed me, sir. But then I suppose the face of a barber, the face of a prisoner in the dark, is not particularly memorable.
Judge Turpin: [with immense shock] Benjamin... Barker...
Sweeney Todd: [shouts] Benjamin Barker!

A Stardust quote...

Guard: [at the wall] I'm charged with guarding the portal to another world, and you're asking me to just let you through!
Young Dunstan Thorn: Yes. Because, let's be honest, it's a field. Look,[pointing to the field at the other side of the wall] do you see another world out there? No, you see a field. Do you see anything non human? No. And you know why? Because it's a field!

All right. I'm done now. I promise.

Okay, so I have some more. These are actually all from movies, I'll put some book ones up.

I believe that some of the best quotes known to man come from the movie Forrest Gump. I'm only going to put up two of my favorite deep quotes, but every single quote from that movie is amazing.


Forest Gump: I don't know if we each have a destiny, or if we're all just floating around accidental-like on a breeze, but I, I think maybe it's both. Maybe both is happening at the same time.


Jenny Curran: Were you scared in Vietnam?
Forrest Gump: Yes. Well, I-I don't know. Sometimes it would stop raining long enough for the stars to come out... and then it was nice. It was like just before the sun goes to bed down on the bayou. There was always a million sparkles on the water... like that mountain lake. It was so clear, Jenny, it looked like there were two skies one on top of the other. And then in the desert, when the sun comes up, I couldn't tell where heaven stopped and the earth began. It's so beautiful.

Yeah... Then the movie Across the Universe is also one of my favorites, so naturally I picked out some quotes from there.


JoJo: Music's the only thing that makes sense anymore, man. Play it loud enough, it keeps the demons away.


Army Sergeant: Is there any reason you shouldn't be in this man's Army?
Max: I'm a cross-dressing homosexual pacifist with a spot on my lung.
Army Sergeant: As long as you don't have flat feet.


Jude: [referring to Lucy] She's probably out fighting for the cause.
JoJo: Looks like you've been fighting for it too, huh?
Jude: I don't have one. That's the problem.


Max: Why is it always what will I do? "What will he do", "What will he do," "Oh, my god what will he do", Do, do, do, do, do. Why isn't the issue here who I am?
Uncle Teddy: Because, Maxwell, what you do defines who you are.
Max: No, Uncle Teddy. Who you are defines what you do. Right Jude?
Jude: [awkward] ... Well, surely it's not what you do, but the, uh... the way that you do it.


Then my newest favorite is Iron Man. These quotes are mostly awesome because of inside jokes, and you really have to see the movie to get them.



Christine Everheart: You've been called the Da Vinci of our time. What do you say to that?
Tony Stark: Absolutely ridiculous. I don't paint.
Christine Everheart: And what do you say to your other nickname, the Merchant of Death?
Tony Stark: That's not bad.


Tony Stark: Yeah. I can fly.


Tony Stark: [recording a log as he tests his rocket boots] Day 11, Test 37, Configuration 2.0. For lack of a better option, Dummy is still on fire safety.
[turns to robot]
Tony Stark: If you douse me again, and I'm not on fire, I'm donating you to a city college.
[performs test then lands]
Tony Stark: Please don't follow me around with it either because I feel like I'm going to catch on fire spontaneously. Just stand down. If something happens, then come in.
