The Hustler and The Color of Money. A couple of favs from both: "Sure you got drunk. You have the best excuse in the world for losing; no trouble losing when you got a good excuse. Winning... that can be heavy on your back, too, like a monkey. You'll drop that load too when you got an excuse. All you gotta do is learn to feel sorry for yourself. One of the best indoor sports, feeling sorry for yourself. A sport enjoyed by all, especially the born losers." The Hustler You know, I got a hunch, fat man. I got a hunch it's me from here on in. One ball, corner pocket. I mean, that ever happen to you? You know, all of a sudden you feel like you can't miss? 'Cause I dreamed about this game, fat man. I dreamed about this game every night on the road. Five ball. You know, this is my table, man. I own it. - The Hustler You smell that? What? Smoke? No... Money - The Color of Money I'm not your daddy, I'm not your boyfriend, so don't be playing games with me. I'm your partner. - The Color of Money I can always go back to whiskey, it's been very good to me. - The Color of Money The balls roll funny for everybody, kiddo. - The Color of Money As I was driving in, I heard a comment on the radio which made me think of a sequil with great quotes.

As for Pulp Fiction, there is a movie I can quote all day long, though often many phrases have to be censored. One of my favorite scenes is the coffee dialogue scened. When Jules says, "@#$%@#, Jimmie! This is some serious gourmet stuff! Usually, me and Vince would be happy with some freeze-dried Taster's Choice, but he springs this serious GOURMET stuff on us!" Or during the foot massage dialogue when Jules says, "that's an interesting point... Come on, let's get into character." But one of my all time favorites is when The Wolf says, "You see that, young lady? Respect. Respect for one's elders gives character." She responds, "I have character."

I can't believe that three classic lines weren't referenced. Casablanca: "Here's looking at you kid." Gone with the Wind: "Frankly Scarlet I don't give a damn!" Wizard of Oz: "Pay no attention to the man behind the current." (Also used frequently by Dick Cheney. One modern one from Pulp Fiction: "Bring in the gimp!" (Ironically also used by Dick Cheney.)
