Randomness: Movie Lines

By Pauly

At some point, over the last week I thought about the following movie lines...

"Brandt can't watch, though, or he has to pay a hundred."

"My job consists of basically masking my contempt for the assholes in charge, and, at least once a day, retiring to the men's room so I can jerk off while I fantasize about a life that doesn't so closely resemble Hell."

"I'm in the junkie limbo at the moment. Too ill to sleep. Too tired to stay awake, but the sickness is on its way."

"He is the sweetest guy. Have you ever looked into his eyes? It was like the first time I heard the Beatles."

"Haven't you seen Boyz N The Hood? Now one of us is going to get shot."

"It's not Bertrand Russell. But what do you want? I'm a cabbie."

"And I guess that was your accomplice in the wood chipper."

"Of course I'm respectable. I'm old. Politicians, ugly buildings, and whores all get respectable if they last long enough."

"What we have here, little yellow sister, is a magnificent specimen of pure Alabama Blacksnake. But it ain't too goddamned beau coup."

"One thing I could never stand was to see a filthy, dirty old drunkie, howling away at the filthy songs of his fathers and going blurp blurp in between as it might be a filthy old orchestra in his stinking, rotten guts."

"Let's make some fuckin' money, folks."

"I did Shakespeare in the Park, Max. I got mugged. I was playing Richard the Second and two guys with leather jackets stole my leotard."

"It's part of a trilogy, a musical trilogy I'm working on in D minor which is the saddest of all keys, I find. People weep instantly when they hear it, and I don't know why."

"You wake up at Seatac, SFO, LAX. You wake up at O'Hare, Dallas-Fort Worth, BWI. Pacific, mountain, central. Lose an hour, gain an hour. This is your life, and it's ending one minute at a time. You wake up at Air Harbor International. If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person?"
