"You stand to lose everything."

"Let me ask you something--if the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?"

"I! The royal we! You know, the editorial..."

"I guess you think you're, you know, like an authority figure, with that stupid fuckin uniform, huh, buddy? King clip-on-tie there, big fuckin man, huh? You know these are the limits of your life, man. The rule of your little fuckin gate here. Here's your four dollars, you pathetic piece of shit."

"So that was Mrs. Lundegaard on the floor in there. And I guess that was your accomplice in the wood chipper. And those three people in Brainerd. And for what? For a little bit of money. There's more to life than a little money, you know. Don'tcha know that? And here ya are, and it's a beautiful day. Well. I just don't understand it."

"Son, you got a panty on your head..."

"Mighty fine cereal flakes, Mrs. McDonough."

"Martinis are for squares, man."

You ran and ran, finally caught up to it and you picked it up. But it wasn't a hat anymore and it changed into something else, something wonderful. Tom Reagan: Nah, it stayed a hat and no, I didn't chase it. Nothing more foolish than a man chasin' his hat. "

I never killed anybody, I never crossed a friend, nor you, I'll bet. We're not like those animals! This is not us! Th... th... this is some hop dream! It's a dream, Tommy! I'm praying to you! I can't die! I can't die... out here in the woods, like a dumb animal! In the woods, LIKE A DUMB ANIMAL! Like a dumb animal! I can't... I can't...

What can I say I love Miller's Crossing. It may have my favorite dialogue of any movie ever.

2/21/2010 12:49:00 AM

Hahaha, Miller's Crossing is great...It and The Hudsucker Proxy are the two most underrated Coen flicks, IMO.

2/21/2010 1:02:16 AM

^Blood Simple is the most underrated Coen Bros. flick simply because it isn't universally understood that it is their best film.

2/21/2010 11:52:33 AM

pretty much every quote from Raising Arizona, but here's my favorite :


Glen: Say that reminds me, how'd you get that kid so darn fast? Me and Dot went in to adopt on account a' somethin' went wrong with my semen, and they said we had to wait five years for a healthy white baby. I said, "Healthy white baby? Five years? What else you got?" Said they got two Koreans and a negra born with his heart on the outside. It's a crazy world.

H.I.: Someone oughta sell tickets.

Glen: Sure, I'd buy one.

"Smokey, this is not 'Nam. This is bowling. There are rules. "

Quote :

"Donny was a good bowler, and a good man. He was one of us. He was a man who loved the outdoors... and bowling, and as a surfer he explored the beaches of Southern California, from La Jolla to Leo Carrillo and... up to... Pismo. He died, like so many young men of his generation, he died before his time. In your wisdom, Lord, you took him, as you took so many bright flowering young men at Khe Sanh, at Langdok, at Hill 364. These young men gave their lives. And so would Donny. Donny, who loved bowling. And so, Theodore Donald Karabotsos, in accordance with what we think your dying wishes might well have been, we commit your final mortal remains to the bosom of the Pacific Ocean, which you loved so well. Good night, sweet prince. "
