Movie Quote of the Day – Salt, 2010 (dir. Phillip Noyce)

Evelyn Salt: Well, maybe you can think of a way around that.
Movie Quote of the Day – The Accused, 1988 (dir. Jonathan Kaplan)
Kathryn Murphy: How were you dressed?
Sarah Tobias: What’s that supposed to mean?
Kathryn Murphy: It means were you dressed provocatively? Showing a lot of cleavage? See-through blouse?
Sarah Tobias: What the fuck does it matter how I was dressed? They tore it off of me.
Kathryn Murphy: But did how you dressed make those guys think they could have sex with you? Did you put on a show?
Sarah Tobias: What the hell are you talkin’ about? You saw me at the hospital. You think I asked for that? Is that what you think? If that’s what you think, get the fuck outta my house.

Movie Quote of the Day – Holiday Affair, 1949 (dir. Don Hartman)
Steve Mason: You were married to a man you were in love with once, you ought to know it’s impossible to be safe and secure when you’re in love. What are you trying to do, crawl into a gave and hide from everything that’s going to stir you up?
Connie Ennis: If I want to.
Steve Mason: That’s a neat trick if you can get away with it, but I don’t think you can. Life is going to crawl right down there with you and kick your teeth in.
Connie Ennis: I’ll manage all right.
Steve Mason: You gotta take everything that’s coming to you, Connie. All the surprises, good and bad.
Connie Ennis: I can’t afford surprises.
Steve Mason: Every surprise isn’t a telegram from the War Department, you know.

Jimmy “Killer” Kilgannon: Yes.
Natalie Ravenna: Aren’t. . .you?
Jimmy “Killer” Kilgannon: Yes.
Natalie Ravenna: Aren’t you?
Jimmy “Killer” Kilgannon: Yes.
Natalie Ravenna: Alright.
Movie Quote of the Day – The Goodbye Girl, 1977 (dir. Herbert Ross)

Movie Quote of the Day – Rock of Ages, 2012 (dir. Adam Shankman)
Constance Sack: You know, some people have said that you’ve become quite difficult to work with. That you’re constantly late, you’re reclusive, sometimes even nonsensical.
Stacee Jaxx: I wanna ask you this: Have these people. . .even met themselves?
Constance Sack: Well, I’m talking about your band.
Stacee Jaxx: Let me tell you something. I know me better than anyone. . .because I live in here.
Movie Quote of the Day – Whatever Works, 2009 (dir. Woody Allen)
Boris Yellnikoff: I happen to hate New Year’s celebrations. Everybody desperate to have fun. Trying to celebrate in some pathetic little way. Celebrate what? A step closer to the grave? That’s why I can’t say enough times, whatever love you can get and give, whatever happiness you can filch or provide, every temporary measure of grace, whatever works. And don’t kid yourself, it’s by no means all up to your own human ingenuity. A bigger part of your existence is luck than you’d like to admit. Christ, you know the odds of your father’s one sperm from the billions, finding the single egg that made you? Don’t think about it, you’ll have a panic attack.
Movie Quote of the Day – Light in the Piazza, 1962 (dir. Guy Green)
Meg Johnson: Signor Naccarelli?
Signor Naccarelli: Yes?
Meg Johnson: During my stay in Italy, I have been told on several occasions that Anglo-Saxons know very little about passion. Is that what you ware working up to?
Signor Naccarelli: You think me insincere? You find me unattractive?
Meg Johnson: No, I find you quite attractive, but there are plenty of American men who appreciate women just as much as you do.
