Fletcher 'Fletch' McCloud:
Well, I guess Lawrence is burned to the ground.

Bob 'Shortcut' Seton:
Yeah. Well, we got a saying down in Texas: that it takes a good fire to burn down the weeds... to let the flowers grow.



Movie: Zardoz(1974)


[first lines]

Arthur Frayn:
I am Arthur Frayn, and I am Zardoz. I have lived 300 years, and long to die. But death is no longer possible, I am immortal. I present now my story - full of mystery and intrigue. Rich in irony, and most satirical. It is set deep within a possible future, so none of these events have yet occurred. But they may! Be warned, lest you end as I. In this tale I am a fake god by occupation, and a magician by inclination. Merlin is my hero! I am the puppet master. I manipulate many of the characters and events you will see. But I am invented too for your entertainment and amusement. And you, poor creatures, who conjured you out of the clay? Is God in showbusiness too?



Movie: Major Dundee(1965)


Capt. Benjamin Tyreen:
[the command comes across a troop of French cavalry] Congratulations, Major. It seems like you've found yourself a real war after all.



Movie: The Karate Kid(1984)

Miyagi:
Huh?

Daniel:
You said you were going to make things better for me.

Miyagi:
But I did.

Daniel:
How?

Miyagi:
How? Just saved you two months beating.

Daniel:
Oh great now I really have something to look forward to.
