Movies:

Hey, what's this show about, anyway?
I don't know - they say it's some big gorilla.
Oh, geez - ain't we got enough of them in New York? (King Kong)
Experimental brain surgery on these creatures is one thing, and I'm all in favor of it. But your behavior studies are another matter. To suggest that we can learn anything about the simian nature from a study of man is sheer nonsense. Why, man is a nuisance. He eats up his food supply in the forest, then migrates to our green belts and ravages our crops. The sooner he is exterminated, the better. It's a question of simian survival. (Planet of the Apes)
The mole is an animal that digs tunnels. In his quest for the sun, his path sometimes brings him to the surface; and when he sees the sun, he is blinded. (El Topo)
Outside the limit of our sight, feeding off us, perched on top of us, from birth to death, are our owners! Our owners! They have us. They control us! They are our masters! Wake up! They're all about you! All around you! (They Live)
They're here already! You're next! You're next, You're next... (Invasion of the Body Snatchers)
Soylent Green is people! (Soylent Green)
Gort! Klaatu barada nikto! (The Day The Earth Stood Still)
I want this picture to be a... document· I want to hold a mirror up to life. I want this to be a picture of dignity... a true canvas of the suffering of humanity... But with a little sex in it. (Sullivan's Travels)
Audiences don't know somebody sits down and writes a picture; they think the actors make it up as they go along. (Sunset Boulevard)
I think, therefore you are. (In the Mouth of Madness)
Better to be king for a night than a schmuck for a lifetime. (King of Comedy)
You don't understand. I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am, let's face it. (On The Waterfront)
Call me vain and proud, the greatest sinner ever to walk God's earth, but Satan's boy I could never be. I haven't the humility. (The Devils)
When you love someone, you've gotta trust them. There's no other way. You've got to give them the key to everything that's yours. Otherwise, what's the point? And, for a while, I believed that's the kind of love I had. (Casino)
If any form of pleasure is exhibited, report to me and it will be prohibited! I'll put my foot down, so shall it be... this is the land of the free! The last man nearly ruined this place he didn't know what to do with it. If you think this country's bad off now, just wait till I get through with it! The country's taxes must be fixed, and I know what to do with it. If you think you're paying too much now, just wait till I get through with it! (Duck Soup)
There's a lot to be said for making people laugh. Did you know that that's all some people have? (Sullivan's Travels)
