Guess the quote

Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

Guess the quote

Guess the quote time!!!

I don't know if we've had one of these already but I'm making one anyway.

Basically the gist is this: you post a quote and we guess it (duh, that's what this thread is called). The quote can be from anything (movies, plays, books, presidential speeches). I'll start us off with just stuff from the top of my head, and yall guess.

1. "My nemesis... is Captain hammer. Captain Hammer, corporate tool.

2. "Ketchup is GOOD for you! It exfoliates the skin,
so who's the real victim here? YOU ARE!"

3. "that's all very well, but what are we going to do about him"

4." I'm telling you there's an enemy that would like to attack America, Americans again. There just is. That's the reality of the world. And I wish him the very best."

and my very favorite:

5. Of course it is happening inside your head, but why on earth
should that mean that it is not real?

it's a toughie and no one gets it, if worst comes to worst, look it up. It will just be less fun :)

Begin!

"If it were not for the entail I should not mind."

"Should not mind what?"

"Why, I should not mind anything."

"Let us be thankful that you are preserved from such a state of insensibility."

The "knife and ballpoint pen" quote is from the Nancy Drew movie, I think.

#1  "The *insert place that would totally give it away* ?? We'll never survive there!!!"
"Nonsense! You're only saying that because no one ever has!"

#2  "You swords grown old and rusty, burnt beneath the rising sun. It's locked up like a trophy forgetting all the things you've done. And though it's been a long time, you're right back where you started from. I see it in you eyes that now you're giving up the gun"       

#3   "Tonight will be the night I fall for you, over again. Don't make me change my mind, cuz I won't live to see another day, I swear it's true, cuz a girl like you is impossible to find, your impossible to find."

#4  person 1: "*insert a certain name here*, who is he?"
person 2: "Who's who?"
person 1: "The mouth-breather hiding under you bed!"
person 3: "You can hear me breathing?!"

#4 person 1: "You wouldn't understand! Your- your just a silly girl!"
person 2: "Better a silly girl with a flower than a silly boy with a horse and a stick!"
person 3: *as person 2 storms away* It's called a lance! Helloooooo!!

#5 "How doth the little crocodile
Improve his shinning tale
And pour the rivers of the Nile
On every golden scale!

How cheerfully he seems to grin
How neatly spreads his claws
And welcomes little fishes in
With gently smiling jaws!"

#6 "I'm sorry, Captain, but the complexities of human pranks escapes me.
"It's not a prank, *insert name*, and I'm not Captain, not, you are."

#7 "They're coming to take me away, ha-haa. They're coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haa! To the funny farm where life is beautiful all the time and I'll be happy to see those nice young men in their clean white coats! And they're coming to take me away, ha-haa!" 

#8 "It is strange to think, I haven't seen you since a month. I have seen the new moon, but not you. I have seen sunsets and sinrises, but nothing of your beautiful face. The pieces of my broken heart are so small that they can be passed through the eye of a needle. I miss you like the sun misses the flower; like the sun misses the flower in the depths of winter. Instead of beaty to direct its light to, the heart hardens like the frozen world your absence has banished my to. I next compete in the city of Paris. I will find it dead and in the winter if you are not there. Hope guides me. It is what gets me through the day and especially the night. The hope that after you are gone from my sigh, it will not be the last time that I look upon you. With all the love that I possess, I remain yours. A knight of your heart."

#9  Person 1: *sees a man with no clothes walking along the road*"Oi, sir? What are you doing?"
Person 2: "Uhh... Trudging. You know, trudging? *pause* The slow, weary, depressing yet determined walk of a man who has nothing left in life besides the impulse to simply soldier on."
Person 1: "Uhh, were you robbed?
Person 2: *laughs* "Funny, really, yes, but at the same time a huge, resounding no. Its more of an... involentary vow of poverty, really."

#10  Person 1: *keeping beat for dance lessons* "And one and two and three and four and your hands should be light like a birdie on a branch. And one and two and three and four and *person 2's name (he's a male, btw)* doesn't lead he follows like a girl. And
Person 2: *punches person 1*
Person 1: And one and two and twirlie, twirlie, twirlie! And one and two and your still getting it wrong! And one and two and three and four you can punch punch me all day cuz you hit like... a what?
Person 3: A GIRL!

"How doth the little crocodile" is obviously Lewis Carroll. I don't know the rest.

Let's see...

#1 Princess Bride.

#2,3,4: No idea

#4 again (??): A Knight's Tale, which is an awesome movie except that Serenity ruined it for me because of Wash. *cries*

#5,6: Beats me.

#7: This, this song! I know that song! ((because my youth group has declared it to be officially Haley's Song. They're mean to mmeeeeeeeee))  WHAT IS IT CALLED?! *google* Oh. They're Coming to Take Me Away, Ha-Haa!

#8,9,10: Also A Knight's Tale, unless I'm much mistaken. 

Random, but it's your fault for bringing up AKT: Rufus Sewell is amazing. 

Back on Topic:

 

1. "What are you doing here?!"

"You mean it isn't obvious yet? I'm about to celebrate becoming an only child!"

 

2. "BEEEEEEEEES!"

"Aw, my bees."

 

3. "This doesn't look like a country at war with itself!"

 

4. "Ugh, what would Uncle say? Sometimes clouds have two sides, a dark and a light, and a silver lining in between. It's like a silver sandwich! So when life seems hard, just take a bite out of the silver sandwich."

"Maybe we haven't failed after all!"

"That's the spirit. I can't believe that worked. I didn't know what I was saying."

"No, what you said didn't make sense at all. But look! It's [name]!"

 

5. "Son, there better not be any WALKING DEAD up there!"

"That was just the one time, dad! And I said I was sorry!" 

 

6. "How am I supposed to convince these people I'm on their side?! ...What would Uncle do? '[Name], you must look within yourself to save yourself from your other self. Only then will your true self reveal itself.' ...Even when I'm talking for him I can't figure out what he means! ...What would [his (crazy) sister] do? 'Listen, [name], I can join your group or I can do something unspeakably horrible to you and your friends. Your choice.' ...I guess I'm not that good at impressions."

 

7. [singsong] "Dad's going to kill you." [normal tone] "Really. He is." <--crazy sociopath child who maintains a baseline level of awesome that the main characters have trouble keeping up.

 

8. "I know what you're going to say. She's my sister, and I should be trying to get along with her."

"No. She's crazy and she needs to go down."

2. "Ketchup is GOOD for you! It exfoliates the skin,
