1.
-My god. Can't you see how condescending you are when you say that? You have this preconceived notion that nobody, listen, that nobody can possibly attain the same high ethical standards as you. So you exonerate them. I cannot think of anything more arrogant than that. You, my child, my dear child, you forgive others with excuses that you would never in the world permit for yourself.
- Why shoulnd't I be merciful? Why?
- No-no-no. You should. You should be merciful when there is time to be merciful. But you must mantain your own standard. You owe them that. You owe them that. The penalty you deserve for your transgressions, they deserve for their transgressions.
- They are human beings.
- No-no-no. Does every human being need to be accountable for their actions? Of course they do. But you don't even give them that chance. And that is extremely arrogant. I love, I love, I love you do death. But you are the most arrogant person I have ever met.
2. Almost Famous (guessed by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
gigglemonster)
- 'Rock and roll can save the world? The chicks are great?' I sound like a dick!
- You are a dick.
3. E.T. The Extra Terrestrial byblighted_star
- Don't be pushy, pushy.
4. Harold & Maude byjanie_tangerine
- You know, at one time, I used to break into pet shops to liberate the canaries. But I decided that was an idea way before its time. Zoos are full. Prisons are overflowing! Oh my, how the world still dearly loves a cage.
5.
- When God created skateboarding, he said "Let there be Jay Adams."
6. V for Vendetta bygigglemonster
- How did this happen? Who is to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable. But again, truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
7. Clue bybachlava
- He was always a rather stupidly optimistic man. I'm afraid it came as a great shock to him when he died.
8. Breakfast at Tiffany's bygigglemonster
- I'm like cat here. A no-name slob. We belong to nobody, and nobody belongs to us. We don't even belong to each other.
9. The Shawshank Redemption byfar_to_nowhere
- I have to remind myself that some birds aren't meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright. And when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up does rejoice. Still, the place you live in is that much more drab and empty that they're gone. I guess I just miss my friend.
10. Seven byhypertwink
- I seem to remember us knocking on your door.
- Oh, that's right. And I seem to remember breaking your face.
11. Fight Club byakzseinga
- If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person?
12. The Goonies byfar_to_nowhere & gypsy_sally
- Wait, wait, wait! Stop, stop! You can't do this.
- Why?
- Because these are somebody else's wishes. They're somebody else's dreams.
- Yeah, well you know what? This one, this one right here? This was my dream, my wish. And it didn't come true. So I'm taking it back. I'm taking them all back.
13. Clueless byblighted_star
- What's with you, kid? You think the death of Sammy Davis Jr. left an opening in the Rat Pack?
14. Clerks byhesperia
- My friend is trying to convince me that any independent contractors working on the uncompleted Death Star were innocent victims when the space station was destroyed by the rebels.
15. Serenity byfar_to_nowhere & gypsy_sally
- Come a day there won't be room for naughty men like us to slip about at all.
