The Gunsmith: Will the gentlemen be moving?

The Jackal: Stationary.

The Gunsmith: Will you go for a head shot or a chest shot?

The Jackal: probably head.

The Gunsmith: What about the chance of a second shot?

The Jackal. Well I might get the chance, but I doubt it, in any event, I'll need a silencer to escape.

The Jackal: Glycerin or mercury?

The Gunsmith: Oh mercury, much cleaner.

LOVE AND DEATH (1975)

Boris (Woody Allen) has successfully knocked-out Napoleon (James Tolkan), and, addressing the camera, contemplates assassination:

"Look at him. If I don't kill him, he'll make war all through Europe. But…murder! What would Socrates say? All those Greeks were homosexuals. Boy! They must have had some wild parties! I'll bet they all took a house together in Crete for the summer.
A. Socrates is a man. B. All men are mortal. C. All men are Socrates.
That means all men are homosexuals. Uh…I'm not a homosexual. Once some Cossacks whistled at me. I have the kind of body that excites both persuasions. But, uh, some men are heterosexual, and some are bi-sexual, and some men don't think about sex at all. They become lawyers."

ZELIG (1983)

Leonard Zelig (Woody Allen), dubbed by the press as "The Human Chameleon," became a media sensation beginning in 1928. Many years after, Nobel and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Saul Bellow had this to say about him:

"He was, of course, very amusing, uh, but at the same time touched a nerve in people, uh, perhaps, uh, in a way they would prefer not to be touched."

Under the care and scrutiny of Dr. Eudora Fletcher (Mia Farrow), Zelig "BECAME" a doctor. Here is a snippet of one of her interviews with him:

"Leonard...Leonard, why don't we start with a simple reality? Leonard, you're not a doctor. You're a patient, and I'm the doctor."

"I gotta get back to town, really! I have an interesting case, treating two sets of Siamese Twins with split personalities. I'm getting paid by eight people!"

Realizing that mere interviews were getting her nowhere, Dr. Fletcher began a series of interviews, speaking with Zelig while he was under post-hypnotic suggestion:

"When did the changes begin happening automatically?"

"Years ago…Saint Patrick's Day…Wandered into a bar…Wasn't wearing green…They made remarks…I turned Irish."

"You told them you were Irish?"

"My hair turned red…My nose turned up…I spoke about the Great Potato Famine, and the Little People."

Again, under post-hypnotic suggestion, Leonard had this to say about his difficult childhood:

"My brother beat me. My sister beat my brother. My father beat my sister, my brother and me. My mother beat my father, my sister and me and my brother. The neighbors beat our family. People down the block beat the neighbors and our family."

"I'm twelve years old. I run into a synagogue. I ask the Rabbi the meaning of life. He tells me the meaning of life. But he tells it to me in Hebrew. I don't understand Hebrew. Then he wants to charge me $600 for Hebrew lessons."

Chaplin (1992)

Douglas Fairbanks: Say, are you two still married or what? I find it all very confusing.

Charlie Chaplin: Mmm... it's not at all confusing. You see, when everyone thought we were having an affair, we were married. Now that everyone realizes we're married, we're getting divorced.

Douglas Fairbanks: Man's a wizard with women. No question about it.

--------------------

Paulette: Did you lose your other wives this way?

Charlie Chaplin: I think so. But you'd have to ask them.

Patton (1970)

"For over a thousand years, Roman conquerors returning from the wars enjoyed the honor of the triumph; a tumultuous parade.
In the procession came trumpeters and musicians and strange animals from the conquered territories, together with carts laden with treasure and captured armaments.
The conqueror rode in a triumphal chariot, the day's prisoners walking in chains before him.
Sometimes his children, robed in white, stood with him in the chariot, or rode the trace horses.
A slave stood behind the conqueror, holding a golden crown, and whispering in his ear a warning; that all glory is fleeting."

The Verdict (1982)

In the packed courtroom, it appears that evil has triumphed, and attorney Frank Galvin (Paul Newman) is hoping against hope that the jury will do the right thing, in spite of the tremendous odds that have been stacked against that conclusion.
He delivers his final summation before the jury deliberates:

"You know, so much of the time we're just lost.
We say, please God, tell us what is right. Tell us what is true.
And there is no justice.
The rich win, the poor are powerless.
We become tired of hearing people lie.
And after a time, we become dead.
We think of ourselves as victims.
And we become victims.
We become…we become weak.
We doubt ourselves…we doubt our beliefs.
We doubt our institutions.
And…we doubt the law.
But today…YOU are the law.
YOU…ARE THE LAW.
Not some book, not the lawyers, not the marble statues, or the trappings of the court.
Those are just symbols of our desire to be just.
But they are…they are in fact, a prayer; a fervent and a frightened prayer.
In my religion, we say, 'Act as if you had faith. Faith will be given to you.'
IF…IF we are to have faith and justice, we need to believe only in ourselves…and act with justice.
I believe there is justice in our hearts…"

Terrific speech, Chris. For those who don't know, Galvin is the abundant ambulance chasing loser on the very cusp of greatness.
