Michael: I don't know anyone who could get through the day without two or three juicy rationalizations. They're more important than sex.
Sam Weber: Ah, come on. Nothing's more important than sex.
Michael: Oh yeah? Ever gone a week without a rationalization?

~~~~~~~~~~~

[about men]
Meg: They're either married or gay. And if they're not gay, they've just broken up with the most wonderful woman in the world, or they've just broken up with a ***** who looks exactly like me. They're in transition from a monogamous relationship and they need more space. Or they're tired of space, but they just can't commit. Or they want to commit, but they're afraid to get close. They want to get close, you don't want to get near them.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Richard: You set your priorities straight and that's what life is. I wonder if your friend Alex knew that, one thing's for sure, he couldn't handle it. I know I shouldn't talk about him, you guys knew him. It's just that... no one ever said it would be fun, at least... no one ever said it to me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sam Weber: So how's your life?
Karen: Oh, great. How's yours?
Sam Weber: Not so great.
Karen: Ohhh, we're telling the truth.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

[At Alex's wake] Michael: Amazing tradition. They throw a great party for you on the one day they know you can't come.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meg: The last time I spoke with Alex, we had a fight. I yelled at him.
Nick: That's probably why he killed himself.
Meg: (snorts)
Nick: That's probably why he killed himself. So... what did you talk about?
Meg: I told him he was wasting his life.
 
The Defense department regrets to inform you that your sons are dead because they were stupid.

Top Gun
 
Major Strasser: Do you mind if I ask you a few questions? Unofficially of course.
Rick: You can make it official if you want.
Strasser: What is your nationality?
Rick: (pauses to think 1 second); I'm a drunkard.
Louie: (laughs) That makes Ricky a citizen of the world.
Rick: I was born in New York City, if that'll help you any.
Strasser: I understand that you came here from Paris at the time of the occupation.
Rick: There seems to be no secret about that.
Strasser: Are you one of those people who cannot imagine Germans in their beloved Paris?
Rick: It's not particularly my beloved Paris.
Heinrich: Can you imagine us in London?
Rick: When you get there, ask me.
Louie: Oh, diplomatist.
Strasser: (baiting) How about New York?
Rick: Well there are sections of New York, Major, that I wouldn't advise you to try to invade.

Of course from the monumental film: Casablanca

Great movie...Bogart was awesome in that one.

And since someone else mentioned Blade: "The world you live in is just a sugar coated topping. There is another world beneath it, the real world...and if you want to survive it you have to learn to pull the trigger"
 
"That really was a Hatori Hanzo sword." - O-Ren Ishii in Kill Bill Vol. 1
 
You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

That's a new favourite for me as well.

I also like Portman's lines upon first meeting V in V for Vendetta - "So are you a crazy man, then?".
 
...also from A Few Good Men
Col. Nathan Jessup

"I run my unit how I run my unit. You want to investigate me, roll the dice and take your chances. I eat breakfast 300 yards from 4000 Cubans who are trained to kill me, so don't think for one second that you can come down here, flash a badge, and make me nervous."
