Just some movie quotes

Bounce

Abby: What is it that you want?

Buddy Amaral: Someone to say goodnight to. A last call of the day. I don’t have a last call of the day.

American Beauty

Ricky Fitts: It was one of those days when it’s a minute away from snowing and there’s this electricity in the air, you can almost hear it. And this bag was, like, dancing with me. Like a little kid begging me to play with it. For fifteen minutes. And that’s the day I knew there was this entire life behind things, and… this incredibly benevolent force, that wanted me to know there was no reason to be afraid, ever. Video’s a poor excuse. But it helps me remember… and I need to remember… Sometimes there’s so much beauty in the world I feel like I can’t take it, like my heart’s going to cave in.

[Last line]

Lester Burnham: I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me. But it’s hard to stay mad when there’s so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I’m seeing it all at once… and it’s too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that’s about to burst. And then I remember… to relax, and not try to hold on to it. And then it flows through me like rain. And I can’t feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life. You have no idea what I’m talking about, I’m sure. Don’t worry… you will someday.

The Virgin Suicides

Narrator: We knew the girls were really women in disguise, that they understood love, and even death, and that our job was merely to create the noise that seemed to fascinate them.

Very nice from Bounce. Check out Good Will Hunting, too. Not the second one in Jay and Silent Bob, but the real thing. :o)

I love the last line in American Beauty (so Im stealing it), that movie is so amazingly good. and Yes, that is awesome (yet scary? hehe) that we both think that syringes are in the sandvolley ball court!
