Bronte is in my head; time for a mindless meme. Up to you to debate whether this is a diversion or just a continuation of a theme.

+ Pick 20 of your favorite movies.
+ Go to IMDb.com and find a quotation from each movie.
+ Post them here for everyone to guess. First come first serve, yo!
+ Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
+ Google-fu is no-do.
+Music meme is still up! Answers coming soon.

"I could've wound up having sex back there. And what better way to exorcise rejection demons than to screw the person who rejected you, right? But you wouldn't be sleeping with a person, you'd be sleeping with the whole sad, single-person culture. It'd be like sleeping with Talia Shire in Rocky if you weren't Rocky." High Fidelity; dogseesgod
~~"I should like to say that I make no assumptions about your occupation nor your ways, Witch... which... which... which are nothing to me, whatever you are."~~ Sleepy Hollow; oceanic

A: My ankles are just low...
B: People think that foot pain is a fact of life, but life is actually better than that.

A: "Anyway, listen, I meant to ask you, I need a cool way to kill people. Don't worry, it's for my script."
B: "I don't write that kind of stuff."
A: "Oh, come on, man, please? You're the genius."
B: "Here you go. The killer's a literature professor. He cuts off little chunks from his victims' bodies until they die. He calls himself 'the deconstructionist.'"
"My partner stopped to help a damsel in distress. He's got his priorities all screwed up."
~~"Young, young man. Did anyone ever tell you you look like a young prince out of the 'Arabian Nights'?"~~ A Streetcar Named Desire; helloworld
~~"Patricia Kitten, aka Deep Throat, had penetrated the deepest recesses of the Republican sphincter... with her secret anti-terrorist spray, named after Gabrielle Coco Chanel's lucky number."~~ Breakfast On Pluto; oceanic
~~"Sweet? Where do you get off? Where do you get sweet? I am dark and mysterious, and pissed off! And I could be very dangerous to all of you! You should know that about me... I am the enemy!"~~ Almost Famous; pronto
"We must not confuse dissent from disloyalty. We must remember always, that accusation is not proof, and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. We will not walk in fear, one of another, we will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason. If we dig deep into our history and our doctrine, we will remember we are not descended from fearful men. Not from men who dared to write, to speak, to associate, and to defend causes that were for the moment unpopular." Good Night and Good Luck; pronto
"Yeah, we cool. Two things. Don't tell nobody about this. This shit is between me, you, and Mr. Soon-To-Be-Living-The-Rest-of-His-Short-Ass-Life-In-Agonizing-Pain Rapist here. It ain't nobody else's business. Two: you leave town tonight. Right now. And when you're gone, you stay gone, or you be gone. You lost all your L.A. privileges. Deal?" Pulp Fiction; pronto
~~"We can locate almost anyone for anyone anywhere, and we are ideologically promiscuous. We love everybody; we hate everybody. I get my feelings confused."~~ Munich; pronto
A: James is amazing. He knows all the movie suicides. Go ahead, James. Tell him.

James Leer: Pier Angeli, 1971 or '72, also pills. Donald "Red" Barry, shot himself in 1980. Charles Boyer, 1978, pills again. Charles Butterworth, 1946, I think. In a car. Supposedly, it was an accident, but, you know, he was distraught. Dorothy Dandridge, pills, 1965. Albert Dekker, 1968. He hung himself. He wrote his suicide note in lipstick on his stomach.

Everett Sloane - he was good - pills. Margaret Sullavan, pills. Lupe Velez, a lot of pills. Gig Young, he shot himself and his wife in 1978. There are tons more.

What can I... I can't do ANYTHIN' with it! I need to, this is my LIFE here we're talking about! We're not just talkin' about, you know, somethin' else, were talking about MY life, you know? And it's forcing me to do somethin' I don't wanna do. To leave. To, to go out and just leave and go home and say, make a clean cut here and say "no way, Corky, you're not puttin' up with these people!" And I'll tell you why I can't put up with you people: because you're BASTARD people! That's what you are! You're just bastard people! And I'm goin' home and I'm gonna... I'm gonna BITE MY PILLOW, is what I'm gonna do!"
~~"It's as if Perry and I grew up in the same house. And one day he stood up and went out the back door, while I went out the front."~~ Capote; hugemistake
"It is vital that we work to a few golden rules. Always work in a small team. Keep a very low profile. Only deal with people who come recommended. And it's like selling anything else: washing machines, hand made shoes, blowjobs. As long as you don't take the piss people will always come back for more. That's not to say we don't work that special kind of magic that makes two kilos into three. But never be too greedy." Layer Cake; oceanic
"And the Germans claim to be intelligent! You know what I think, I think they are totally stupid. I have a family to feed. I spend half my time here, waiting for them to let us through. Why do they think I come here, to listen to the music?"
