10 Best Movie Quotes
(in no particular order)
*"I don't want to be a product of my environment. I want my
environment to be a product of me." ~The Departed
*"It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to your
enemies, but a great deal more to stand up to your friends." ~Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone
*"Just keep swimming." ~Finding Nemo
*"Sometimes
I wonder about my life. I lead a small life - well, valuable, but small - and
sometimes I wonder, do I do it because I like it, or because I haven't been
brave? So much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, when
shouldn't it be the other way around? I don't really want an answer. I just
want to send this cosmic question out into the void. So good night, dear void." ~You've Got Mail
*"Do,
or do not. There is no 'try'." ~The Empire Strikes Back
This was my first Listicle too! I'd say the Juno comment is one of your girls'??
ReplyDeleteHuge fan of You've Got Mail!

Love the Departed quote ;)
ReplyDeleteWelcome to MLs. I'm a newbie, but I can tell you that its wonderful. I thought I knew Forrest Gump inside out. That quote is going to drive me nuts to figure out what scene it was said in. I like the Juno quote. I've never seen the movie but I've heard about it.
ReplyDeleteHi Kenya! It's the scene where Forrest witnesses Jenny throwing rocks at her childhood home. He later tears it down. I love that he does that for her.
DeleteThanks for commenting.
Love your choices! Monday Listicles are the best, right?! I really like that Harry Potter choice. :)
ReplyDeleteYes. I love Monday Listicles. :)
DeleteGreat list!!! I love Little Miss Sunshine!
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing Nemo & Juno as quotes from your girls. I enjoyed all of them though! Love Departed - now I feel like watching that. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are right! The "Juno" quote comes from my 14 year old and Dory in "Finding Nemo" from my 12 year old. Thanks for playing!
DeleteI am going with Nemo and Harry Potter as your daughter's quotes.
ReplyDeleteYoda!!! So glad to see he made someone's list.
And Forrest Gump one is definitely among the best. Great film moment.
Who wouldn't want to be the cheese to your macaroni - Juno was a great movie? Great choices!!
ReplyDeleteI was going to guess Little Miss Sunshine and Juno for your daughter's quotes - got 1 right :) This is a great listicles topic, I love movies and would not have even known where to start but you've got some great ones here! Happy first 2013 Listicle post!
ReplyDeleteWow, I have no idea which ones are from your daughters, but I'm curious to find out.
ReplyDeleteThese are words to live by, right? "Losers are people who are so afraid of not winning, they don't even try." ~Little Miss Sunshine
ReplyDeleteAnd I should paint this one in the hallway. "It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to your enemies, but a great deal more to stand up to your friends." ~Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone
Great list! Ellen
Juno has so many great quotes. The dialog in that movie is so well written. I love the scene you chose for Forest Gump. I can relate to Jenny in that scene. Thanks for sharing these...it was great.
ReplyDeleteI love your list. My Dad and I were talking about 'you've got mail" tonight and I know I saw it but need to watch it again. Thanks for the second reminder! JUNO! Love it~!
ReplyDeleteI was surprised not to see more from Little Miss Sunshine, there were so many great lines in that movie!! Love the list Kim!!
