Anne of Green Gables, and Anne of Avonlea:

Marilla Cuthbert: "No."
Anne Shirley: "Oh Marilla, how much you miss!"

Anne Shirley: "Ruby Gillis says when she grows up, she wants to have a line of beaus on a string and make them crazy for her. I'd rather have one in his rightful mind."

Mrs. Cadbury: "Tell me what you know about yourself."
Anne Shirley: "Well, it really isn't worth telling, Mrs. Cadbury...but if you let me tell you what I imagine about myself you'd find it a lot more interesting."

Anne Shirley: "I know I chatter on far too much...but if you only knew how many things I want to say and don't. Give me some credit."

Gilbert Blythe: "Anne, There's not going to be any wedding anymore. I called it off. It wouldn't be fair to Christine. There would never be anyone for me but you."

Anne Shirley: "It's not what the world holds for you. It's what you bring to it."

Katherine Brooke: "This is the first place I've ever been to that feels like a real home."

Fetcher: "Right. We'll need a chicken, then."
Nick: "No... no, we'll need an egg. You have the egg first, that's where you get the chicken from."
Fetcher: "No, that's cobblers. If you don't have a chicken, where are you going to get the egg?"
Nick: "From the chicken that comes from the egg."
Fetcher: "Yeah, but you have to have an egg to have a chicken."
Nick: "Yeah, but you've got to get the chicken first to get the egg, and then you get the egg... to get the chicken out of..."
Fetcher: "Hang on, let's go over this again?"

Duck Soup:

Rufus T. Firefly: "Not that I care, but where is your husband?"

Mrs. Teasdale: "I was with him to the very end."
Rufus T. Firefly: "No wonder he passed away."
Mrs. Teasdale: "I held him in my arms and kissed him."
Rufus T. Firefly: "Oh, I see, then it was murder. Will you marry me? Did he leave you any money? Answer the second question first."
Mrs. Teasdale: "Why, he left me his entire fortune."
Rufus T. Firefly: "He did? Can't you see what I'm trying to tell you? - I love you!"

Prosecutor: "What year were you born?"
Chicolini: "I don't remember - I was only a little baby."

Rufus T. Firefly: "Gentlemen, Chicolini here may talk like an idiot, and look like an idiot, but don't let that fool you: he really is an idiot. I implore you, send him back to his father and brothers, who are waiting for him with open arms in the penitentiary. I suggest that we give him ten years in Leavenworth, or eleven years in Twelveworth."
Chicolini: "I'll tell you what I'll do: I'll take five and ten in Woolworth."

Rufus T. Firefly: "Maybe you can suggest something. As a matter of fact, you do suggest something. To me you suggest a baboon."
Ambassador Trentino: "What?!"
Rufus T. Firefly: "I, uh, I'm sorry I said that; it isn't fair to the rest of the baboons."

Mrs. Teasdale: "Your excellency, the ambassador's here on a friendly visit. He's had a change of heart."
Rufus T. Firefly: "A lot of good that'll do him; he's still got the same face."
Ambassador Trentino: "I'm sorry we lost our tempers; I'm willing to forget if you are."
Rufus T. Firefly: "Forget? You ask me to forget? A Firefly never forgets! Why, my ancestors would rise from their graves, and I'd only have to bury them again! Nothing doing."

Rufus T. Firefly: "Don't look now, but there's one man too many in this room, and I think it's you."

Rufus T. Firefly: "Maybe I am a little headstrong. But I come by it honestly - my father was a little headstrong. And my mother was a little armstrong. The Headstrongs married the Armstrongs, and that's how donkeys were born."

Tevye: "A fiddler on the roof. Sounds crazy, no? But here, in our little village of Anatevka, you might say every one of us is a fiddler on the roof. Trying to scratch out a pleasant, simple tune without breaking his neck. It isn't easy. You may ask 'Why do we stay up there if it's so dangerous?' Well, we stay because Anatevka is our home. And how do we keep our balance? That I can tell you in one word: tradition."

Lazar Wolf: "I go to Chicago, America."
Tevye: "I go to New York, America. Hey, we can be neighbors!"

George: "To swing, or not to swing? Swing."

Narrator: "Don't worry, nobody dies in this story. They just get really big boo-boos."

Manfred: "Hey, Sid, the tiger found a shortcut."
Sid: "No thanks - I choose life."

Dodo bird: "There goes our last female."

Manfred: [to Sid] "Oh, isn't there someone else you can annoy? Friends? Family? Poisonous reptiles?"

Diego: "You don't know much about tracking, do you?"
Sid: "Hey, I'm a sloth. I see a tree, eat a leaf. That's my tracking."

Manfred: "Check for poop."
Sid: "Why am I the poop-checker?"
Manfred: "Because returning the runt was your idea, because you're small and insignificant, and because I'll pummel you if you don't."
Sid: "Why else?"
Manfred: "NOW, Sid!"

Galadriel: "For the time will come when hobbits will shape the fortunes of all."

Aragorn: "I can avoid being seen if I wish, but to disappear entirely - that is a rare gift."

Frodo: "It's a pity Bilbo didn't kill him when he had the chance."
Gandalf: "Pity? It was pity that stayed Bilbo's hand! Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play yet, for good or ill before this is over. The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many."

Frodo: "I wish the ring had never come to me; I wish none of this had happened!"
Gandalf: "So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to you."

Aragorn: "You are the daughter of kings. A shield maiden of Rohan. I do not think that will be your fate."

Frodo: "I am Frodo Baggins, and this is Samwise Gamgee."
Faramir: "Your bodyguard?"
Sam: "His gardener."

Sam: "You want to know what happen to Boromir? Do you want to know why your brother died? He tried to take the Ring from Frodo after swearing an oath to protect him. The Ring drove your brother mad!"

Th�oden: "So much death. What can men do against such reckless hate?"
Aragorn: "Ride out with me. Ride out and meet them."

Sam: "...those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something."
Frodo: "What are we holding on to Sam?"
Sam: "That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo... and it's worth fighting for."

Legolas: "The way is shut. It was made by those who are dead, and the dead keep it. The way is shut."

Gandalf: "Lord Denethor is Boromir's father. To bring him news of his beloved son's death would be most unwise. And don't mention Frodo or the ring. And say nothing of Aragorn either. In fact, it's best if you don't speak at all, Peregrin Took."

Arwen: "From the ashes, a fire will be woken. A light from the shadows shall spring. Renewed shall be blade that is broken. The crownless again shall be king."

Gimli: "I never thought I'd die side by side with an Elf."
Legolas: "What about side by side with a friend?"
Gimli: "Aye. I could do that."

Frodo: "How do you pick up the threads of an old life? How do you go on, when in your heart you begin to understand: there is no going back. There are some things time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep... and take hold."

Alonzo Smith: "You also spend it."

Joe Helton: [to Groucho, handing him a note] "I wish you'd announce this next singer - I can't pronounce the name."
