Okay, I was looking for a single quote to write about tonight, and I somehow ended up on a page of movie quotes. I like movie quotes. People believe that the characters are saying something really deep and they wish that they would have something similar said to them... And it never happens, unless it is a set up. And when it happens, people know it is ultimately bull shit, but they fall for it anyway... Because the actor they saw it happen to had already showed them the way!
It's crazy how so much of what passes as emotions nowadays are just acted out because you saw a similar scene in a movie. A couple of times, my wife would say something to me, and it would sound so contrived, that I would break into a big smile. She would then ask me what I was smiling about and I would tell her that what she just said reminded me of a movie I once saw and I would describe the scene. Usually, she would get mad at me for ruining "the mood" she was trying to set. That made me smile harder, because I never felt a need to set a mood! Anyway, below are some quotes that I would love to pull off in real life some day. Not to set a mood per se, but just to see if I could actually say them with a straight face and see what kind of reaction I would get. Try these on with some of your friends. Don't tell them what you are doing either. Just watch their faces. Some will think your nuts... others will think you are amazing! Either way, the reactions should be funny! If you do use one, please let me know the results. Definitely worth sharing the results folks. "There is something I have been meaning to tell you. I'm sorry, I can't find the right words." "What we do in life, echoes in eternity." "Choosing not to believe in the devil, will not protect you from him." "Our fingerprints don't fade from the lives we touch." "You know what really sucks? Realizing that everything you believed in was complete and utter bullshit!" "I was very well educated to be an idiot." "Memory is a wonderful thing, if you don't have to deal with the past." "So, we can get on with what we are really supposed to be doing with our lives?" "I just sort of feel like I am on drugs when I am with you...Not that I do drugs...unless you do drugs, in which case, I do drugs all the time!" "I tried to flirt...it worked better than I thought it would." "She was an angel that fell from heaven...(whispering) so was Lucifer." In hindsight, some of these quotes WOULD likely be good to pull apart in a blog post. The fact that they come from the movies kind of take away some of the seriousness though. It would be too much like trying to analyze "I'll be back" or "Do you feel lucky, punk?" Thus, there they are. Have fun with them!
