Movie Quote of the Day – The Jane Austen Book Club, 2007 (dir. Robin Swicord)
Grigg Harris: Isn’t physical attraction one of the ungovernable forces? You know, like gravity–that’s what we like about it. Downhill, release the brakes, loosen the grip and then– whoosh!

Movie Quote of the Day – Bound, 1996 (dir. Lana & Lilly Wachowski)

Movie Quote of the Day – Eve’s Bayou, 1997 (dir. Kasi Lemmons)
Mozelle Batiste Delacroix: Life is filled with goodbyes, Eve, a million goodbyes, and it hurts every time. Sometimes, I feel like I’ve lost so much, I have to find new things to lose. All I know is, there must be a divine point to it all, and it’s just over my head, that when we die, it will all come clear and we’ll say, “So that was the damn point.” And sometimes, I think there’s no point at all, and maybe that’s the point. All I know is most people’s lives are a great disappointment to them and no one leaves this earth without feeling terrible pain. And if there is no divine explanation at the end of it all, well. . .that’s sad.
