A Beautiful Mind Quotes (2001)

Raheem — Fri, 21 Jan 2011 13:54:29 +0000

Nash: Adam Smith… was wrong.

Nash: My quest has taken me through the physical, the metaphysical, the delusional and back…

Bender: Hey, look, you made the cover of Fortune… again…

Helinger: Mathematicians won the war. Mathematicians broke the Japanese codes… and built the A-bomb. Mathematicians… like you. The stated goal of the Soviets is global Communism. In medicine or economics, in technology or space, battle lines are being drawn. To triumph, we need results. Publishable, applicable results. Now who among you will be the next Morse? The next Einstein? Who among you will be the vanguard of democracy, freedom, and discovery? Today, we bequeath America’s future into your able hands. Welcome to Princeton, gentlemen.

Bender: What did the doctor say?
Sol: Is he sick?
Alicia: I don’t know. I want to see what John’s been working on.
Sol: Alicia, you know you can’t go in his office.
Bender: You know it’s classified, Alicia.
[Alicia keeps going]
Bender: Stop!
[as Bender tries to stop her, she turns around and slaps him]

Dr. Rosen: My name is Rosen, Dr. Rosen. I am a psychiatrist.

Nash: This class will be a waste of your – and what is infinitely worse – my time.

General: You ever… just *know* something, Dr. Nash?
Nash: Constantly.

John Nash: Hello, Martin.
Martin Hansen: Jesus Christ.
John Nash: No. I don’t have that one. My savior complex takes a different form.

[John meets Charles' niece]
Nash: She’s so small.
Charles: Well, she’s young, John. That’s how they come.

Parcher: Conviction, it turns out, is a luxury of those on the sidelines, Mr. Nash.

Nash: Well, Martin Hansen. It is Martin, isn’t it?
Hansen: Why yes, John, it is.
Nash: I assume you’ve gotten quite used to miscalculation. I read your pre-prints. Both of ‘em. One on Nazi scientists and the other one on, uh… non-linear equations, and I’m extremely confident that there’s not one seminal or innovative idea in either one of them… Enjoy your punch.

Nash: [to Thomas King] I still see things that are not here. I just choose not to acknowledge them. Like a diet of the mind, I just choose not to indulge certain appetites; like my appetite for patterns; perhaps my appetite to imagine and to dream.

Nash: It looks like you won after all.
Hansen: No. They were wrong, John. No one wins.

Charles: [offering Nash a flask of whiskey] Listen. If we can’t break the ice, how ’bout we drown it?

Alicia: God must be a painter. Why else would we have so many colors?

Nash: You wanted to see if I was crazy and would screw everything up if I actually won.

Charles: When’s the last time you ate? You know… food.

Nash: If we all go for the blonde and block each other, not a single one of us is going to get her. So then we go for her friends, but they will all give us the cold shoulder because no on likes to be second choice. But what if none of us goes for the blonde? We won’t get in each other’s way and we won’t insult the other girls. It’s the only way to win. It’s the only way we all get laid.

Nash: I don’t exactly know what I am required to say in order for you to have intercourse with me. But could we assume that I said all that. I mean essentially we are talking about fluid exchange right? So could we go just straight to the sex.

Alicia: You want to know what’s real? This…
[putting her hand on his heart and his hand on her face]
Alicia: … this is real.

Alicia: How big is the universe?
Nash: Infinite.
Alicia: How do you know?
Nash: I know because all the data indicates it’s infinite.
Alicia: But it hasn’t been proven yet.
Nash: No.
Alicia: You haven’t seen it.
Nash: No.
Alicia: How do you know for sure?
Nash: I don’t, I just believe it.
Alicia: It’s the same with love I guess.

Nash: Find a truly original idea. It is the only way I will ever distinguish myself. It is the only way I will ever matter.

Nash: [to Alicia] You are the reason I am. You are all my reasons.

Dr. Rosen: You can’t reason your way out of this!
Nash: Why not? Why can’t I?
Dr. Rosen: Because your mind is where the problem is in the first place!

Charles: Her husband was too drunk to know he was too drunk to drive.

Charles: Nothing’s ever for sure, John. That’s the only sure thing I do know.

Hansen: So how about it, Nash? You scared?
Nash: Terrified… mortified… petrified… stupefied… by you.

Charles: So what’s your story? You the poor kid that never got to go to Exeter or Andover?
Nash: Despite my privileged upbringing, I’m actually quite well-balanced. I have a chip on both shoulders.

Nash: Classes will dull your mind, destroy the potential for authentic creativity.

Hansen: Cowards, all of you. Come on. Whoever wins, Sol does his laundry for the semester.
Sol: Does that seem unfair to anybody?
Bender: No, not at all.

John Nash: I have respect for beer.

John Nash: I don’t have time for these classes and these books, memorizing the weak assumptions of lesser mortals.

Alicia Nash: Give me a moment to redefine my girlish notions of romance.

Alicia Nash: Excuse me we have a little problem here. It is extremely hot when the windows are closed and extremely noisy with them open.

James Cole: I’m looking for the Army of the Twelve Monkeys.

Jeffrey Goines: My father is God! I worship my father!

Dr. Kathryn Railly: You had a bullet from World War I in your leg, James! How did it get there?

Jeffrey Goines: There’s no right, there’s no wrong, there’s only popular opinion.

Railly: Oh, Jesus, James! You killed him!
Cole: I did him a favor. Now come on.

Cole: I’m here about some monkeys.
Jeffrey: Excuse me — what did you say?
Cole: Monkeys. Twelve of them.
Jeffrey: Arnold… Arnold. My God, Arnie, what’s happened to you? You look like shit
Agent#3: You know this man?
Jeffrey: Of course I know him. What do you think — I act like this to strangers?

James Cole: Look at them. They’re just asking for it. Maybe the human race deserves to be wiped out.
Jeffrey Goines: Wiping out the human race? That’s a great idea. That’s great. But more of a long-term thing. I mean, first we have to focus on more immediate goals.

Jeffrey Goines: Do you realize where he thinks he comes from?

James Cole: I’m here about some monkeys.
Jeffrey Goines: Monkeys?
James Cole: Monkeys. Yes. Twelve of them.

James Cole: Philadelphia.
Dr. Kathryn Railly: Philadelphia? That’s more then a hundred miles away!
James Cole: I know, that’s why I can’t walk there.

Jeffrey Goines: [sighs] Get out of my chair!

James Cole: This is a place for crazy people. I’m not crazy.
Dr. Peters: We don’t use the term “crazy,” Mr. Cole.
James Cole: Well you’ve got some real nuts here.

Jeffrey Goines: Telephone call? Telephone call? That’s communication with the outside world. Doctor’s *discretion*. Nuh-uh. Look, hey – all of these nuts could just make phone calls, they could spread insanity, oozing through telephone cables, oozing into the ears of all these poor sane people, infecting them. Wackos everywhere, plague of madness.

Jeffrey Goines: You know what crazy is? Crazy is majority rules!

James Cole: Jose – psst! Jose, what’s going on?
Jose: Bad news, man
James Cole: Volunteers?
Jose: Yeah. And they said your name.
[pause]
Jose: Hey, maybe they’ll give you a pardon, man.
James Cole: [sarcastic] Yeah, that’s why none of the volunteers come back. They all get a pardon.

Jeffrey Goines: There is no such thing as right and wrong, there’s just popular opinion.
L.J. Washington: I don’t really come from outer space.
Jeffrey Goines: Oh. L. J. Washington. He doesn’t really come from outer space.
L.J. Washington: Don’t mock me my friend. It’s a condition of mental divergence. I find myself on the planet Ogo, part of an intellectual elite, preparing to subjugate the barbarian hordes on Pluto. But even though this is a totally convincing reality for me in every way, nevertheless Ogo is actually a construct of my psyche. I am mentally divergent, in that I am escaping certain unnamed realities that plague my life here. When I stop going there, I will be well. Are you also divergent, friend?

Al McWiggin: To mail six packages to Japan overnight is how much? That’s in yen, right? DOLLARS?! Oh, you people are deliberately taking advantage of people in a hurry, you know that?

Mr. Potato Head: Put me down, you moron! (to Buzz, after he suspends Mr. Potato Head as a pillar to avoid the supposed eroding ceiling to bury everyone)

Titanic Quotes (1997)

Raheem — Sat, 21 Aug 2010 13:34:25 +0000

Rose:I feel as if I’m in a room screaming and no one even looks up.

Old Rose: It was the ship of dreams to everyone else. To me it was a slave ship, taking me back to America in chains. Outwardly, I was everything a well brought up girl should be. Inside, I was screaming.

Cal Hockley: You’re a good liar.
Jack: Almost as good as you.

Jack:I’ve got ten bucks in my pocket and nothing to offer you..And I know how the world is….

Rose:What do you mean, “No I won’t”? Don’t presume to tell me what I will and will not do, you don’t know me!

Old Rose: I don’t even have a picture of him. He exists now only in my memory

Rose: Jack, I want you to draw me like one of your French girls. Wearing this…
Jack: All right.
Rose: Wearing “only” this.

Jack:You jump I jump, remember?

Jack:You never know what hand you’re gonna get dealt next….You learn to take life as it comes at ya..Oh, here ya go, Cal!

Tommy:For God’s Sake, let us out! There are women & children down here!

Sailor on Watch:Iceberg! Right ahead!

Thomas Andrews: I’m sorry I didn’t build you a stronger ship, young Rose.

Officer:Back I say! Or I’ll shoot you all like dogs!

Jack:I love waking up in the morning not knowing where I’m gonna go or who I’m gonna meet. Just the other night I was sleeping under a bridge, and now here I am, on the grandest ship in the world, having champagne with you fine people.

Rose:The difference between Cal’s taste in art and mine is that I have some. They’re fascinating. It’s like being inside a dream or something. There’s truth but no logic.

Old Rose: And I’ve never spoken of him until now. Not to anyone, not even your grandfather. A woman’s heart is a deep ocean of secrets.

Andrews: The pumps will buy you time, but minutes only. From this moment, no matter what we do, Titanic will founder.
Ismay: But this ship can’t sink! Andrews: She is made of iron, sir. I assure you, she can. And she *will*. It is a mathematical certaint

Brock Lovett: Three years I’ve thought of nothing except Titanic, but I never got it, I never let it in

Cal Hockley: You’re going to him? To be a whore to a gutter rat?!
Rose: I’d rather be his whore than your wife.

Old Rose:Afterward, the seven hundred people in the boats had nothing to do but wait: wait to die, wait to live, wait for an absolution which would never come

Ismay:The press knows the size of Titanic, now I want them to marvel at her speed, too. We must give them something new to print. And the maiden voyage of Titanic must make headlines!

Sam: I’m not Scully; you’re Scully.
Dean: No, I’m Mulder. You’re a red-headed woman.

Verbal Kint: I just can’t believe we’re going to walk into certain death.

Fenster: I say I’ll flip ya.
Hockney: You’ll what?
Fenster: Flip ya, flip ya for real.

Keaton: His name is Verbal. Verbal Kint.
McManus: Verbal?
Keaton: Yeah.
Verbal: Roger, really. People say I talk too much.
Hockney: Yeah, I was just about to tell you to shut up.

Verbal Kint: How do you shoot the Devil in the back? What if you miss?

Dave Kujan: Do you know a dealer named Ruby Deamer, Verbal?
Verbal: Do you know a religious guy named John Paul?
Dave Kujan: Did you know Ruby’s in Attica?
Verbal: He didn’t have my lawyer.

Dean: Did Tony mention anything … unusual… to you in the days before his death?
Karen: Unusual?
Dean: Yeah, like strange.
Karen: Strange…
Dean: You know, Karen, weird!

Verbal Kint: And then he showed these men of will what will really is.

Verbal Kint: You think you can catch Keyser Soze? You think a guy like that comes this close to getting caught, and sticks his head out? If he comes up for anything it’ll be to get rid of me. After that… my guess is you’ll never hear from him again.

Interrogation Cop: I can put you in Queens on the night of the hijacking.
Hockney: Really? I live in Queens, did you put that together yourself, Einstein? Got a team of monkeys working around the clock on this?

Dean: My name is Dean Winchester. I’m an Aquarius; I enjoy sunsets, long walks on the beach, and frisky women. And I did not kill anyone.

It’s official, Sam: Your life is indeed weird.

Verbal Kint: The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.

Verbal: He lets the last Hungarian go. He waits until his wife and kids are in the ground and then he goes after the rest of the mob. He kills their kids, he kills their wives, he kills their parents and their parents’ friends. He burns down the houses they live in and the stores they work in, he kills people that owe them money. And like that he was gone. Underground. Nobody has ever seen him since. He becomes a myth, a spook story that criminals tell their kids at night. “Rat on your pop, and Keyser Soze will get you.” And no-one ever really believes.

Verbal: Are you trying to get a rise out of me, Agent Kujan?

Verbal: Big fat guy, I mean like orca fat.

Dave Kujan: He was dead just long enough for the murder rap to blow over. And then he had lunch.

McManus: Dean Keaton… gone clean huh? Say it aint so.

McManus: “Old McManus had a farm, E, I, E, I, O. And on that farm he shot some guys, bada bing, bada bing bang boom”

Ichabod Crane: Run, Katrina.
Lady Van Tassel: Yes, do run, and jump, and skip.

Katrina Anne Van Tassel: I think you have no heart. And I had a mind once to give you mine.

Lady Van Tassel: The easiest part was the first. To enter your home as your mother’s sick-nurse and put her body into the grave and mine into the marriage bed.

Ichabod Crane: [to the Western Woods Crone] I should like to say that I make no assumptions about your occupation nor your ways, Witch… which… which… which are nothing to me, whatever you are.

Ichabod Crane: We have murders in New York without benefit of ghouls and goblins.

Schindler’s List Quotes (1993)

Raheem — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 13:27:01 +0000

Itzhak Stern: The standard SS rate for skilled Jewish workers is seven marks a day, five for unskilled and women. This is what you pay to the Reich Economic Office. The Jews themselves receive nothing. Poles you pay wages. Generally, they get a little more. Are you listening?
Oskar Schindler: What was that about the SS? The rate? The what?
Itzhak Stern: The Jewish worker’s salary – you pay it directly to the SS, not to the worker. He gets nothing.
Oskar Schindler: But it’s less. It’s less than what I would pay to a Pole.
Itzhak Stern: It’s less.
Oskar Schindler: That’s the point I’m trying to make. Poles cost more. Why Itzhak Stern:should I hire Poles?

Itzhak Stern: How many cigarettes have you smoked tonight?
Oskar Schindler: Too many.
Itzhak Stern: For every one you smoke, I smoke half.

Itzhak Stern: Let me understand. They put up all the money. I do all the work. What, if you don’t mind my asking, would you do?

Amon Goeth: The truth is always the right answer.

Itzhak Stern: This list… is an absolute good. The list is life. All around its margins lies the gulf.

Oskar Schindler: Look, All you have to do is tell me what it’s worth to you. What’s a person worth to you?
Amon Goeth: No, no, no, No. What’s one worth to you!

Mr. Lowenstein: I am an essential worker.
First S.S. Guard: Essential worker!
Mr. Lowenstein: Yes! I work for Oskar Schindler.
First S.S. Guard: Essential worker for Oskar Schindler.
Mr. Lowenstein: Yes!
