If we threw away the guns, the grenades – we could have been brothers, but they never want us to know that.
-All Quiet on the Western Front (1979)
You’re taught your entire life that what you do matters and that you’re special. And that, there are things you can point towards that would… which’ll show that you’re special, that show you’re different, when, in all reality, those things… don’t matter. And you’re not special.
-American Animals (2018)
“… tennis uses the language of life. Advantage, service, fault, break, love, the basic elements of tennis are those of everyday existence, because every match is a life in miniature. Even the structure of tennis, the way the pieces fit inside one another like Russian nesting dolls, mimics the structure of our days. Points become games become sets become tournaments, and it’s all so tightly connected that any point can become the turning point. It reminds me of the way seconds become minutes become hours, and any hour can be our finest. Or darkest. It’s our choice.” Andre Agassi
– Borg vs. McEnroe (2017)
The system is rigged. They want us to believe that it’ll protect us, but that’s a lie. We protect us. We do. Nobody else. Not the companies, not the scientists, not the government. Us.
– Dark Waters (2019)
That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the end of the road. And when I got there, I thought maybe I’d run to the end of town. And when I got there, I thought maybe I’d just run across Greenbow County. And I figured, since I run this far, maybe I’d just run across the great state of Alabama. And that’s what I did. I ran clear across Alabama. For no particular reason I just kept on going. I ran clear to the ocean. And when I got there, I figured, since I’d gone this far, I might as well turn around, just keep on going. When I got to another ocean, I figured, since I’d gone this far, I might as well just turn back, keep right on going.
– Forrest Gump (1994)
Now, I know what you’re thinkin’. How the heck does a 52 year old, over-the-hill milkshake machine salesman… build a fast food empire with 16,000 restaurants, in 50 states, in 5 foreign countries… with an annual revenue of in the neighborhood of $700,000,000.00… One word… PERSISTENCE. Nothing in this world can take the place of good old persistence. Talent won’t. Nothing’s more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius won’t. Unrecognized genius is practically a cliche. Education won’t. Why the world is full of educated fools. Persistence and determination alone are all powerful.
-The Founder (2016)
You know, my father used to say, whatever you do, do it 100%. When you work, work. When you laugh, laugh. When you eat, eat like it’s your last meal.
– Green Book (2018)
The draft is white people sending black people to make war on the yellow people to defend the land they stole from the red people!
– Hair (1979)
But is there a line? You know, maybe you go too far and you discourage the next Charlie Parker from ever becoming Charlie Parker?
No, man, no. Because the next Charlie Parker would never be discouraged.
-Whiplash (2014)
I spent my life trying to reduce the brain to a series of electrical impulses. I failed. Human emotion, it can contain illogical conflict. Can love someone, and yet hate the things that they’ve done. Machine can’t reconcile that.
-Transcendence (2014)
It is difficult to understand the sum of a person’s life. Some people will tell you it’s measured by the ones left behind. Some believe it can be measured in faith. Some say by love. Other folks say life has no meaning at all
-The Bucket List (2007)
Dear Lord, (…). Thank you for guiding me straight and true through the many obstacles in my path. And for keeping me resolute when all around seemed lost. Thank you for your protection and your many signs along the way. Thank you for any good that I may have done, I’m so sorry about the bad. (…) Thank you for finally allowing me to rest. I’m so very tired, but I go now to my rest at peace. Knowing that I have done right with my time on this earth. I fought the good fight, I finished the race, I kept the faith.
– The Book of Eli (2010)
We live in an era of fraud in America. Not just in banking, but in government, education, religion, food, even baseball… What bothers me isn’t that fraud is not nice. Or that fraud is mean. For fifteen thousand years, fraud and short sighted thinking have never, ever worked. Not once. Eventually you get caught, things go south. When the hell did we forget all that? I thought we were better than this, I really did.
– The Big Short (2015)
God must have some kind of plan to teach me some kind of lesson. I just can’t figure out what it is.
– Southpaw (2015)
These kids coming up in here I’m telling them a bunch of stuff this bullshit. „It’s gonna be alright”. You can control your destiny. You could control this you could control that”. You can’t control shit.
-Southpaw (2015)
We have a saying in Tibet: If a problem can be solved there is no use worrying about it. If it can’t be solved, worrying will do no good.
This is another great difference between our civilization and yours. You admire the man who pushes his way to the top in any walk of life, while we admire the man who abandons his ego.
– Seven Years in Tibet (1997)
When I was little, my grandmother, she used to say: „You like because, and you love despite.” You like someone because of all of their qualities, and you love someone despite some of their qualities.
– Set It Up (2018)
Oh, uh, Charlie – about your little problem – there are two kinds of people in this world: those who stand up and face the music, and those who run for cover. Cover is better.
– Scent of a Woman (1992)
The day we stop lookin’, Charlie, is the day we die.
– Scent of a Woman (1992)
Frank, let me tell you something my father told me. A man gets only a couple of chances in life. If he doesn’t grab’em by the balls, it won’t take long for he’s sitting around wondering why he got to be second rate.
– Revolutionary Road (2008)
Jesus, I mean, you guys do nothing but complain about how you can’t stand it in this place here and you don’t have the guts just to walk out? What do you think you are, for Christsake, crazy or somethin’? Well you’re not! You’re not! You’re no crazier than the average asshole out walkin’ around on the streets and that’s it.
– One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest (1975)
But I tried, didn’t I? Goddamn it, at least I did that.
– One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest (1975)
Just because you accept help from someone, doesn’t mean you have failed. It just means you’re not in it alone.
-Life as We Know It (2010)
