You want great quotes, you go to Ron Shelton and especially Bull Durham and White Men Can't Jump.

Nuke: “How come you don’t like me?”
Crash: “You don’t respect yourself, which is your problem. But you don’t respect the game, and that’s my problem. You got a gift.”
Nuke: “What do I got?”
Crash: “You got a gift. When you were a baby, the gods reached down and turned your right arm into a thunderbolt. You’ve got a Hall of Fame arm but you’re pissing it away.”
Nuke: “I ain’t pissing nothing away. I got a Porsche already. I got a 911 with a quadraphonic Blaupunkt.”
Crash: “Christ! You don’t need a quadraphonic Blaupunkt. What you need is a curveball.”
___________________________

Crash, to the hitter: “This son of a bitch is throwing a two-hit shutout and he’s shaking me too. You believe that shit? Charlie, here comes the deuce. And when you speak of me, you speak well.”
(Batter hits home run. Crash trots out to the mound, smiling.)
Nuke: “You told him I was gonna throw a deuce, right?”
Crash: “Yep. Man, that ball got out of here in a hurry. Anything that travels that far ought to have a damn stewardess on it, don’t you think?”

Annie: “What do you believe in, then?”
Crash: “Well, I believe in the soul, the c**k, the p**sy, the small of a woman’s back, the hanging curveball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve, and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days. Good night.”
Annie: “Oh my."

Junior: Your mother's so poor I saw her kicking cans and I asked her what she was doing she said "moving".
Walter: Your mother's so old she used to drive chariots to high school.
Junior: Your mother's so fat when she fell over, broke her leg and gravy poured out.
Walter: I told your mother to act her age and the bitch dropped dead.

Another massively quotable film - Fast Times At Ridgemont High. Pretty much everything Spicoli says is quotable.

"Relax, all right? My old man is a television repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it."

"That was my skull! I'm so wasted!"

"Hey, wait a minute, there's no birthday party for me here!"

"Mr. Vargas: Are you in my class?
Jeff Spicoli: I am today."

"People on 'ludes should not drive!"

"Mr. Hand: Mr. Spicoli?
Jeff Spicoli: That's the name they gave me!"

There are some real beauties in this collection of clips of Screamin'Jay Hawkins in the awesome Jim Jarmusch film Mystery Train.

Clint Eastwood, Magnum Force. “Nothing wrong with people getting shot, as long as it’s the right people getting shot” pure Harry Callahan logic!

My favourite of all time, and relevant to the challenges of life itself...

“Do, or do not. There is no try”

Yoda.

For me, the term “try” is patting yourself on the back for lack of success. Rather than “try”, do what you can do to succeed. If you still don’t, then you can’t ask more of yourself, nor can anyone ask more of you. Trying is for those with excuses.

Let's try some arithmetic. If you had six apples and your neighbour took three apples. What would you have?

A dead neighbour and all six apples.

Some classics from the underrated Once upon a time in the West


frank -How Can You Trust A Man Who Wears Both A Belt And Suspenders, A Man Who Can't Even Trust His Pants?


Frank - "People Scare Better When They're Dyin'."


And from one of the best opening scenes in cinema history


Harmonica: And Frank?
Snaky: Frank sent us.
Harmonica: Did you bring a horse for me?
Snaky: [Chuckling] It looks like we're... it looks like we're shy of one horse!
Harmonica: You brought two too many. [Harmonica shoots the three henchmen dead]

And from my Favourite ever Western, also a little underrated

The Outlaw Josey Wales



Bounty hunter #1: You’re wanted, Wales.
Josey Wales: Reckon I’m right popular. You a bounty hunter?
Bounty hunter #1: A man’s got to do something for a living these days.
Josey Wales: Dyin’ ain’t much of a living, boy.


Josey Wales: When I get to likin’ someone, they ain’t around long.
Lone Watie: I notice when you get to DISlikin’ someone they ain’t around for long neither.

Carpetbagger: Your young friend could use some help.
[holds up a bottle of patent medicine]
Carpetbagger: This is it… one dollar a bottle. It works wonders on wounds.
Josey Wales: Works wonders on just about everything, eh?
Carpetbagger: It can do most anything.
Josey Wales: [spits tobacco juice on the carpetbagger’s coat] How is it with stains?



Lone Watie: How did you know which one was goin’ to shoot first?
Josie Wales: Well, that one in the center: he had a flap holster and he was in no itchin’ hurry. And the one second from the left: he had scared eyes, he wasn’t gonna do nothin’. But that one on the far left: he had crazy eyes. Figured him to make the first move.
Lone Watie: How ’bout the one on the right?
Josie Wales: Never paid him no mind; you were there.

Josey Wales: Are you gonna pull those pistols or whistle Dixie?
