So now, I am on a quest for movie quotes. I am thinking of a special project in which I want to incorporate memorable quotes from films. It doesn't have to be about love and friendship or about weddings. It just has to be good. I have to be able to reference the quote, what character said it, who played him/her, what movie, and what year.
I've looked on AFI's 100 Movie Quotes, and there's a lot to start with, but I'm going to need MORE. I am extremely open to contributions.
Here are a few memorable ones:
"Go Ahead, Make my day."
Harry Callahan, Clint Eastwood
Sudden Impact, 1983
"I'll have what she's having."
Customer, Estelle Reiner
When Harry Met Sally..., 1989
"You're gonna need a bigger boat."
Martin Brody, Roy Scheider
Jaws, 1975
If you build it, he will come."
Shoeless Joe Jackson, Ray Liotta (voice)
Field of Dreams, 1989
One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. how he got in my pajamas, I don't know."
Capt. Geoffrey T. Spaulding, Groucho Marx
Animal Crackers, 1930
Well, here's another nice mess you've gotten me into!"
Oliver, Oliver Hardy
Sons of the Desert, 1933
There's no place like home."
Dorothy, Judy Garland
Wizard of Oz, 1939
Anyone want to add any more to the mix. Please include quote, character quoted, actor/actress, title of movie, and year.
I'm very excited about this project!!!
