We-ell, as you

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

We-ell, as you

We-ell, as you all probably know, a while ago we had a thread for quotes ((*thinks: Hey! Joe Moses/Snape! Stop reading my post over aloud, it's very distracting"*)).

Rather than resurrect the old one *again*, I'm just going to make a new one because I'm lazy like that. Silence your sniggering!

Well. Right. Quotes! Anything and everything! Wee!

"Hello, sick people and their loved ones. In the interest of saving time and avoiding a lot of boring conversations later, I'm Dr. Gregory House. You can call me Greg. I'm one of three doctors staffing this clinic this morning."

"Short, sweet, grab a file."

"This little ray of sunshine is Dr. Lisa Cuddy. Dr. Cuddy runs the entire hospital, so she's much too busy for all of you. I am a bored... certified diagnostician with a double specialty of infectious disease and nephrology. I am also the only doctor employed at this hospital who is here against his will.

[to Cuddy] That is true, isn't it?

So. Who wants me?"

~House. Speaking of which, what did they do to his hair for the upcoming season?! Did they seriously cut it?!

SFTDP, but I forgot I was going to post these, because Die Hard is an epic movie:

Hans: The following people are to be released from their captors: In Northern Ireland, the seven members of the New Provo Front. In Canada, the five imprisoned leaders of the Liberte de Quebec. In Sri Lanka, the nine members of the Asian Dawn movement...

Karl: [mouthing] Who are they?!

Hans: [away from radio] I read about them in Time Magazine.

Mclane: Merry Christmas, Argyle.

Argyle: Merry Christmas.

Reporter: [to camera] Did you get that?

Argyle: If this is their idea of Christmas, I gotta be here for New Year's.

Actually, I read the William Goldman version of the Princess Bride a few weeks ago, and they took some serious liberties with the eels, the ROUS's, and the "Zoo of Death" concept in the movie. What I didn't realize was that William Goldman also wrote the screenplay (I think?).

Goldman's Princess Bride was EPIC.

And yes, if memory serves, he may have written the screenplay. The whole "oh this was adapted from S. Morgenstern" thing in the book was made up. The little boy in the beginning of the movie? That, I believe, is meant to be William Goldman.

Yes, the sick little boy thing in the movie made more sense after reading this. As did Fezzik's obsession with rhymes, which was never really explained in the movie. ("Vizzini, he is a bit lacking in charm...")

"Just a touch woozy, that's all...."  *runs out of the room*

*raises eyebrows*  "Woozy, eh?"

----

"Oh, 'scuse me, sir.  Uh-oh."

"Yes, let's say, you and I take a little stroll in the park, eh young lady?  Now, why don't you tell me what this is all about?"

"Well, it's a long story."

"It's a big park...." 

------

"It's an emergency, Dad's in love!"

"What, get out of here, Dad doesn't fall in love, I mean, at least not seriously."

 

Ah, I love that movie.  Whenever we watch it, we can pretty much quote the whole thing, including the soundtrack.... :D :D :D :D

"What was she thinking--coming to camp with your face?"

 

"You're still biting your nails, I see."

"Oh, you noticed!"

"What?"

 

"Don't play with the big girls, honey. You're in waaay over your head."
(Or something like that)

 

And then there's always these:

 

"I know, Quirrel. I hear everything you hear."

 

"Racist, sister, racist. That's Lavender Brown."

 

"If this homemade Dark Mark doesn't convince you--!"

 

Bonus points if you know where this is from:

 

"Ohhhh, I think I've broken something." *pulls out broken carrot* "Hmm..."

Some quotes from my hilarious life:

 

Grandma: What's this green thing in my ice cream?

Grandpa: Spinach.

 

Me: I have very loud eyelashes.

 

Grandma: He [my little brother] told me my puns aren't funny!

My aunt: Them's fightin' words.

 

Yeah, I have a really funny life. ;D

OK, guess! Guessguessguess! You'll never guess this one!

"It shouldn't take more than a few weeks," said Professor McGonagall. "You will have it back when we are sure it is jinx-free."

Where did that one come from? :) Have fun guessing!

Oh! Oh! I know I know this. It's from Harry Potter, obviously... She's talking about a broomstick! It must be PoA, after Sirius sends him the what's it called, Firebolt.

So, yeah, that's my guess: Harry Potter and the Prizoner of Azakaban, after Harry recieves a Firebolt broomstick in the mail, anonymously.

I'm right, right?

Yes, after Hermione turns him in. That's my guess too.
