Greatest Lines in Movie History

In "La Haine" a French dub of that scene is playing in the cinema. You don't see it but what is said is the exact same.

Evey: Who are you?
V. : Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask.
Evey: Well I can see that.
V. : Of course you can, I'm not questioning your powers of observation, I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is.
Evey: Oh, right.
V. : But on this most auspicious of nights, permit me then, in lieu of the more commonplace soubriquet, to suggest the character of this dramatis persona. Voila! In view humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the "vox populi" now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin, van guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.
The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.
Verily this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honour to meet you and you may call me V.
Evey: Are you like a crazy person?
V. : I'm quite sure they will say so.

"My name is Lester Burnham. This is my neighborhood; this is my street; this is my life. I am 42 years old; in less than a year I will be dead. Of course I don't know that yet, and in a way, I am dead already."

I found this a while back and thought it was pretty cool.

Wow, nice find!

Not worded right but it has the same effect:

"The day M. Bison stormed your village and killed your father was the worst day of your life. To me... It was Tuesday."

"Warriors come out to play"

"Why so serious"

Haven't read the whole thread, sorry if mentioned.

Hm...can't remember the exact wording, but the "They can never take our freedom" speech from Braveheart...

Also, and I can't believe this hasn't been mentioned...

"Inconceivable!"
"Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."
"Nonsense! You only say never, because no one ever has!"
"As you wish."

Rick ' A hooker. Oh Jesus, you killed a hooker!'

Kirk 'Everybody knows you never go full retard.'

Tugg ' What do you mean?'

Kirk "Check it out. Dustin Hoffman, 'Rain Man,' look retarded, act retarded, not retarded. Counted toothpicks, cheated cards. Autistic, sho'. Not retarded. You know Tom Hanks, 'Forrest Gump.' Slow, yes. Retarded, maybe. Braces on his legs. But he charmed the pants off Nixon and won a ping-pong competition. That ain't retarded. Peter Sellers, "Being There." Infantile, yes. Retarded, no. You went full retard, man. Never go full retard. You don't buy that? Ask Sean Penn, 2001, "I Am Sam." Remember? Went full retard, went home empty handed..."

GySgt Hartman: Do you suck dick, private?
Pvt Pyle: Sir no sir!
GySgt Hartman: Bullshit! I bet you could suck a golf ball through a garden hose, faggot!

Pvt Cowboy: "Sir, five-foot-nine, sir!"
GySgt Hartman: "Five-foot-nine, I didn't know they stacked shit that high. You trying to squeeze an inch on me somewhere, huh?"
Pvt Cowboy: "Sir, No Sir."
GySgt Hartman: "Bullshit! It looks to me like the best part of you ran down the crack of your mama's ass and ended up as a brown stain on the mattress. I think you've been cheated. Where the hell you from anyway private?"
Pvt Cowboy: "Sir, Texas, Sir."
GySgt Hartman: "Holy dogshit! Texas! Only steers and queers come from Texas Private Cowboy and you don't look much like a steer so that kinda narrows it down. Do you suck dicks?"

Pvt Cowboy: "Sir, No Sir."
GySgt Hartman: "I bet you're the kind of guy that would fuck a person in the ass and not even have the god damned common courtesy to give him a reach around. I'll be watching you."

Both from Full Metal Jacket, too many good ones there from good ol' Gunnery Sergeant Hartman. Oh Hartman, your outrageous hatred and insults to anyone and everyone cracks me up. XD
