Name That Quotation! [Game]

[EricKei]

J2K - correct!

And now, one I've used in real life before

"Don't you try to outweird me, I get stranger things than you free with my breakfast cereal."

[El Pollo Guerrera]

'I will not be defeated by a bad man and an American stick insect.Instead I choose vodka!'

Bridget Jones Diary.

"I don't care if she did put an ice cube in your underwear! Girls will do that. You mustn't hit her with the dog! Now until I get back, you're the man of the house. Yes, I know Mommy thinks she is, but you really are!"

[notalwaysright]

Or mine:

"The hardest thing to do in this world is to live in it."

That's so familiar... Somebody on Person of Interest?

Mine:

"The road from legitimate suspicion to rampant paranoia is very much shorter than we think."

[Sakka]

Was that Remington Steel? Now one of my favourite quotes:

It is indeed Remington Steele

Don't forget mine lying lost and forgotten on page 1 :P

Or mine:

"The hardest thing to do in this world is to live in it."

[greek_jester]

"TV, deadens the mind and corrupts the soul."

Was that Remington Steel? Now one of my favourite quotes:

“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”

[Kit-Ginevra]

Don't forget mine lying lost and forgotten on page 1 :P

The Princess Bride. "Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads."

Doc Brown, Back to the Future


"TV, deadens the mind and corrupts the soul."

[AdamAnt316]

"Life is pain... Anyone who says different is selling something."

The Princess Bride.

"Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads."

[Jay 2K Winger]

"I am your enemy, the first one you've ever had who was smarter than you. There is no teacher but the enemy. No one but the enemy will tell you what the enemy is going to do. No one but the enemy will ever teach you how to destroy and conquer. Only the enemy shows you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you where he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. I am your enemy from now on. From now on I am your teacher.”

Mazer Rackham, "Ender's Game"

"Life is pain... Anyone who says different is selling something."

[EricKei]

Crossbow - Yup!

AK - rofl, and Schmendrick from The Last Unicorn on the second one, I believe.

======================

"I am your enemy, the first one you've ever had who was smarter than you. There is no teacher but the enemy. No one but the enemy will tell you what the enemy is going to do. No one but the enemy will ever teach you how to destroy and conquer. Only the enemy shows you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you where he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. I am your enemy from now on. From now on I am your teacher.”

[AnaKhouri]

Oh God. Did I shut down the game? I'm so sorry.

Here's another, possibly less obscure, one.

“The true secret in being a hero lies in knowing the order of things. The swineherd cannot already be wed to the princess when he embarks on his adventures, nor can the boy knock on the witch's door when she is already away on vacation. The wicked uncle cannot be found out and foiled before he does something wicked. Things must happen when it is time for them to happen. Quests may not simply be abandoned; prophecies may not be left to rot like unpicked fruit; unicorns may go unrescued for a very long time, but not forever. The happy ending cannot come in the middle of the story.”

[AnaKhouri]

Is it from Eaters of the Dead by Michael Crichton? Or maybe the movie version, but it had a different title.


"It is better to believe in men too rashly, and regret, than believe too meanly. Men could be more than they are, if they would try for it."

[ApolloSZ]

“But here's some advice, boy. Don't put your trust in revolutions. They always come around again. That's why they're called revolutions.”

Was going to say that was from the move "Under Seige", Tommy Lee Jones' character.

I don't know your latest one.

"Lo there do I see my father; Lo there do I see my mother and my sisters and my brothers; Lo there do I see the line of my people, back to the beginning. Lo, they do call me, they bid me take my place among them, in the halls of Valhalla, where the brave may live forever."

[greek_jester]

"All of this was for nothing, unless we go to the stars."

Babylon 5

"If you get hurt, hurt 'em back. If you get killed, walk it off."

Avengers: Age of Ultron
