For some lighthearted reading this week, I am listing my favorite movie or TV “quotes.”
In no particular order (although Christmas and Thanksgiving movies are on my mind) I suggest you list any one you remember that I have missed.
GO!
“Merry Christmas, you old building and loan.”
“You’ll shoot your eye out.”
“Yippee Ki-Yay, M_________”
“Every time a bell rings…”
“Ya killing me smalls.”
“We’re gonna need a bigger boat.”
“Get busy living, or get busy dying.”
“I’ll be back.”
“Aw geez, Eedi”
“Nip it, nip it in the bud.”
“Death cannot stop true love.”
“You’re standing on my trunk.”
“Frankly my dear, I don’t…”
“Walk this way.”
“That’s the way he wants it, that’s the way he gets it.”
“Swing away, Merrill.”
“One of these days Alice, to the moon.”

“You keep using that word.”
“What we have here is failure to communicate.”
“My father was slaughtered by a six fingered man.”
“There’s no way, NO way that you came from MY loins.”
“If you break it in half, you don’t get two nickels, you get sh!t. Try and smoke it. You understand?”
