I wish that I had a good enough excuse for why I am known to repeat lines from movies
and song lyrics over and over again. And over and over and over again, after that. It is
obviously annoying to so many people, yet, I'm alright with it. Perhaps a movie line/song
lyric fan would dismiss these negative haters starting with the following three words:
"Frankly my dear..."
There are so many witty, funny, dramatic and just plain ol' fantastic movie lines out
there. I've decided to dispense with some of my favorites here, in no particular order.
To keep from butchering the works of the fine writers who have made these lines possible,
I have used the Internet Movie Database (www.imdb.com) to verify the accuracy of the
quotes. Enjoy. :)
