That's an Abraham Lincoln quote isn't it? (It's also quoted in X-Men 2.)

Memorize those four movies, and you'll have a quote handy for any and ever happening in life.

from the movie Tombstone (with Val Kilmer) Sheriff Beehan is on the street with the Earp Brothers and Doc Holliday. He is talking up Tombstone and how grown up the town was becoming. Just then a fight spills out onto the street from a bar and gunfight ensues. The camera turns to Val Kilmer and his line is "Very Cosmopolitan" when the fight is over Doc Holliday introduces two the characters involved with the shooting to Beehan and says Sheriff, "may I present a pair of Fellow sophisticates, Turkey Creek Jack Johnson and Texas Jack Vermillion." Pretty funny stuff

My all-time favorite, and words I live by.

Morgan (slapping Denzel): Smack! "and what are you? So full of hate, you just want to go out and fight everybody. Cause you've been whipped and chased by hounds. Well, that might not be living. But it sure as hell aint dying. And dying is what these white boys have been doing going on three years now. Dyin by the thousands, dying for you, fool. I know cause I dug the graves. And all the time I'm diggin I'm asking myself when, when ol lord is it going to be our time. Well, time's coming where we goin to have to ante up. Ante up and kick in like men. LIKE MEN! You watch who you call a nig_ga. Any nig_gas round here, it's you. Smart-mouth, stupid-a$$, swamp-runnin nig_ga. And if you aint careful, that's all you ever goin be."

Classic.

Joe Gillis: You're Norma Desmond. You used to be in silent pictures. You used to be big.
Norma Desmond: I *am* big. It's the *pictures* that got small.

Norma Desmond: [to newsreel camera] And I promise you I'll never desert you again because after 'Salome' we'll make another picture and another picture. You see, this is my life! It always will be! Nothing else! Just us, the cameras, and those wonderful people out there in the dark!... All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up.
