Day Twenty-One: Favorite Movie Quote

Day Twenty-One: Favorite Movie Quote
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So many to choose from!

Here are 21 movie quotes I love, instead.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(The Princess Bride)

Inigo Montoya: Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.

~also~

Westley: Give us the gate key.
Yellin: I have no gate key.
Inigo Montoya: Fezzik, tear his arms off.
Yellin: Oh, you mean this gate key.

~and so many more~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(John Carpenter's Halloween)

Dr. Sam Loomis: I met him, fifteen years ago. I was told there was nothing left. No reason, no conscience, no understanding; even the most rudimentary sense of life or death, good or evil, right or wrong. I met this six-year-old child, with this blank, pale, emotionless face and, the blackest eyes... the devil's eyes. I spent eight years trying to reach him, and then another seven trying to keep him locked up because I realized what was living behind that boy's eyes was purely and simply... evil.

~or~

Sheriff Brackett: It's Halloween, everyone's entitled to one good scare.

~and~

Laurie: It was the boogeyman.
Dr. Loomis: As a matter of fact, it was.

~or~

Bethany: Don't throw me down, Clark.
Clark: I'll try not to, Aunt Bethany.

~and~

Clark: Russ, we checked every bulb, didn't we?
Rusty: Sure, Dad.
Clark: Hmm... Maybe we ought to just go up there and check...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
