"We took a vote, and we want to watch the damn World Series" Jack Nicholson in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
Oh yeah! So many great lines in that movie!
Tonight I'm watching Miss Firecracker from 1989 with Holly Hunter, Mary Steenburgen, Tim Robbins, and lots of other familiar faces. Lots of good lines, but this one I had to share. Delmount is played by Tim Robbins, Popeye by Alfre Woodard:
Dr. Richard H. Thorndyke: As I was saying, it came to my attention that just before Dr. Ashley's untimely death, he was planning to make some very big changes here at the institute. Do any of you know specifically what those changes might be? Dr. Wentworth: Well, for one thing, he wanted to change... Nurse Diesel: The drapes. Dr. Richard H. Thorndyke: The drapes? Nurse Diesel: The drapes. He wanted to change the drapes in the Psychotic Game Room. Dr. Richard H. Thorndyke: That was the extent of the big change, the... drapes? Nurse Diesel: Oh, yes. Dr. Ashley felt that color has a great deal to do with the well-being of the emotionally disturbed.
Terry: It wasn't him, Charley, it was you. Remember that night in the Garden you came down to my dressing room and you said, "Kid, this ain't your night. We're going for the price on Wilson." You remember that? "This ain't your night"! My night! I coulda taken Wilson apart! So what happens? He gets the title shot outdoors on the ballpark and what do I get? A one-way ticket to Palooka-ville! You was my brother, Charley, you shoulda looked out for me a little bit. You shoulda taken care of me just a little bit so I wouldn't have to take them dives for the short-end money. Charlie: Oh I had some bets down for you. You saw some money. Terry: You don't understand. I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am, let's face it. It was you, Charley.

"I don't think it's nice you laughing!!! You see, my mule don't like people laughing, he always gets the crazy idea they're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize to him, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it."
