There are only two hard things in computer science: cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-one errors

Course you probably think I'm crazy, but I'm not. (patooiee!!! Bingo!) I'm colorful. That's what happens when you live ten years alone in Bolivia - you get colorful.

Think you used enough dynamite there, Butch?
A good question is never answered. It is not a bolt to be tightened into place but a seed to be planted and to bear more seed toward the hope of greening the landscape of the idea. John Ciardi
Brigid O'Shaughnessy Mr. Spade, I have a terrible, terrible confession to make. That story I told you yesterday was just a story.
Sam Spade Oh, that. Well, we, we didn't exactly believe your story, Miss--uh, what is your name? Wonderly or Leblanc?
Brigid O'Shaughnessy It's O'Shaughnessy. Brigid O'Shaughnessy.
Sam Spade We didn't exactly believe your story, Miss O'Shaughnessy. We believed your two hundred dollars.
Brigid O'Shaughnessy You mean that--
Sam Spade I mean, you paid us more than if you'd been telling us the truth, and enough more to make it all right.
Regards Pete
Mike: Stanley, see this? This is this. This ain't somethin' else. This is this.
Roy: I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the darkness at Tannh�user Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.
The maltese falcon ... There are lots of amazing and hard dialogs in the film, but I don't know how to find them.
A: Go to the north. The decisive battle will be fought there.
B: Why didn't you build a fence there?
A: A good fort needs a gap. The enemy must be lured in. So we can attack them. If we only defend, we lose the war.
Ernest Hemingway once wrote, "The world is a fine place and worth fighting for." I agree with the second part.

The first night's the toughest, no doubt about it. They march you in naked as the day you were born, skin burning and half blind from that delousing shit they throw on you, and when they put you in that cell, when those bars slam home, that's when you know it's for real. Old life blown away in the blink of an eye. Nothing left but all the time in the world to think about it. Most new fish come close to madness the first night. Somebody always breaks down crying. Happens every time. The only question is, who's it gonna be? It's as good a thing to bet on as any, I guess.
I have no idea to this day what those two Italian ladies were singing about. Truth is, I don't want to know. Some things are better left unsaid. I'd like to think they were singing about something so beautiful, it can't be expressed in words, and it makes your heart ache because of it. I tell you, those voices soared higher and farther than anybody in a grey place dares to dream. It was as if some beautiful bird had flapped into our drab little cage and made these walls dissolve away, and for the briefest of moments, every last man in ********* felt free.
We all end up dead. The question is how and why.
Every man dies, not every man really lives.
Sometimes I do what I want to do. The rest of the time, I do what I have to.

Priest -> Does making a man a Knight, make him a better fighter???
Hero -> Yes.... It does.

(This line was delivered by the same actor in two different films by the same director. The second was a multi-level allusion to "a film within a film," compounded by the actor making two distinct cameos -- once in character, quoting the first film, and once as himself.)
HINT: The actor was Terrence Stamp (kind of a British version of Peter Fonda, who was also in the first film mentioned above).
