10 Favorite Movies to Quote
Oh, boy, I'm loving this one!!!
1. Forrest Gump:
Forrest says: Mama always said life was like a box a chocolates, never know whatyou're gonna get.
Stupid is as stupid does.
I'm not a smart man, but I know what love is.
2. Field of Dreams

John: Iowa? I could have sworn this was heaven.

Ray: Maybe this is heaven.
3. Parenthood

Grandma: You know when I was nineteen, Grandpa took me on a roller coaster...I always wanted to go again. You know, it was just so interesting to me that a ride could make me so frightened, so scared, so sick, so excited, and so thrilled all together! Some didn't like it. They went on the merry-go-round. That just goes around. Nothing. I like the roller coaster. You get more out of it.
Karen: Do you really have to go?
Gil: My whole life is "have to."
4. Harvey

and then later...
Delmar O'Donnell: We thought you was a toad!
Pete: What?
Delmar O'Donnell: [leaning in, speaking slower] We thought you was a toad!
Pete: Do not seek the treasure!
7. Die Hard
John McClane: Nine million terrorists in the world and I gotta kill one with feet smaller than my sister.
John McClane: Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker.
John McClane: Now I know what a TV dinner feels like.
8. It's A Wonderful Life
Clarence: You've been given a great gift, George: A chance to see what the world would be like without you.
Clarence: You see George, you've really had a wonderful life. Don't you see what a mistake it would be to just throw it away?
Clarence: Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives. When he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he?
9. A Christmas Story
Different characters: You'll shoot your eye out, kid!
Father's curses: Naddafinger, you mundane noodle, sons-of-bitches-Bumpeses!

I love the list. Lots of ones on it that I didn't consider, but should have!
I love your list! Forrest Gump was my #11! "Lt. Dan! What are you doin' here?!" "You wrote me a letter, you idiot." Love it! (And thanks for the comment!)
Great list. I can't believe I didn't think of A Christmas Story for mine. One of the best movies of all time. The leg lamp is awesome.
Oh, I should have thought of Finding Nemo, too. Dory had some of the best lines. "I wish I could speak Whale."
Good on including Forrest Gump and West Side Story, too.
Great choices, especially "O Brother" and "Christmas Story"
Great list. Forrest Gump rocks. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
"I'm not a smart man but i know what love is"
--This short line makes me cry everytime i watch forrest gump! (once is not enough)
