Day 21 Favorite Movie Quote

"Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it."

~ Bubba

That is my favorite movie quote because it's funny and it's from a meaningful movie. One of my favorite movies...

Some other runners up were:

~
Virginia: "What's this I hear about you breaking a rake and throwing it in the
woods?"
Happy Gilmore: "What? I didn't break it, I was just testing its durability, and then I placed it in the woods because it's made of wood and I just thought he should be with his family."
~
Dory: "Just keep swimming."
~
Owen: "I'm gonna catch up with you guys later. I'm gonna have a bathroom... go to the drink... in the bathroom."
Dwight: "Whatever you do, wash your hands."

Striped controller: "Bad news. The fog's getting thicker."
Johnny: "And Leon is getting laaaaarrrrrger."

"Just a minute - just a minute. Now, hold on, Mr. Potter. You're right when you say my father was no businessman. I know that. Why he ever started this cheap, penny-ante Building and Loan, I'll never know. But neither you nor anyone else can say anything against his character, because his whole life was - why, in the twenty-five years since he and Uncle Billy started this thing, he never once thought of himself. Isn't that right, Uncle Billy? He didn't save enough money to send Harry to school, let alone me. But he did help a few people get out of your slums, Mr. Potter, and what's wrong with that? Why - here, you're all businessmen here. Doesn't it make them better citizens? Doesn't it make them better customers? You - you said - what'd you say a minute ago? They had to wait and save their money before they even ought to think of a decent home. Wait? Wait for what? Until their children grow up and leave them? Until they're so old and broken down that they... Do you know how long it takes a working man to save five thousand dollars? Just remember this, Mr. Potter, that this rabble you're talking about... they do most of the working and paying and living and dying in this community. Well, is it too much to have them work and pay and live and die in a couple of decent rooms and a bath? Anyway, my father didn't think so. People were human beings to him. But to you, a warped, frustrated old man, they're cattle. Well, in my book he died a much richer man than you'll ever be."

  1. Great stuff, and probably the only time a quote from "It's a Wonderful Life" is right before a quote from "Paul Blart: Mall Cop"!!!
