Here are some of my favorites

"What none of you realize is that I'm not locked in here with you. You are locked in here with me." Rorschach from Watchmen (book or movie).

"Come on! Come on! Come and get it, baby! Come on! I don't got all day! Come on! Come on! Come on you bastard! Come on, you too! Oh, you want some of this? Fuck you!" Hudson from Aliens.

"All right, I'm coming out. Any man I see out there, I'm gonna shoot him. Any sumbitch takes a shot at me, I'm not only gonna kill him, but I'm gonna kill his wife, all his friends, and burn his damn house down." William Munny from Unforgiven

That last dialogue between Church and Tex in the finale of season 9 of Red vs Blue was pretty damn sad. (not going to bother quoting the whole thing since it's pretty damn long)

Damon from The Vampire Diaries is very, very quotable. Something he came out with in this week's episode has stuck in my brain, though; "Own it, live it, love it. Stop being ashamed of who you are."

 

[Ticonderoga117]

I like some George Patton myself:

"Have taken Trier with two divisions. What do you want me to do? Give it back?"

"We herd sheep, we drive cattle, we lead people. Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way."

"You can't run an army without profanity; and it has to be eloquent profanity. An army without profanity couldn't fight its way out of a piss-soaked paper bag. ... As for the types of comments I make, sometimes I just, By God, get carried away with my own eloquence."

ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL!!!

[Durgiun]

''Neither a borrower nor a lender be,
For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.''
-Hamlet, Act 1, Scene 3

 

[Poetic Nova]

"War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength."

"If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever."

 

[dalek sec]

Well I have a couple from Warhammer 40K codex's and stories I rather like:

"The meaning of victory is not to merely defeat your enemy but to destroy him, to completely eradicate him from living memory, to leave no remnant of his endeavours, to crush utterly his achievement and remove from all record his every trace of existence. From that defeat no enemy can ever recover. That is the meaning of victory."

"What I cannot crush with words I will crush with the tanks of the Imperial Guard!"

Both are from Lord Commander Solar Macharius.

"Into the fires of battle, unto the anveil of war!"

Battle cry of the Salamander Space Marine Chapter.

"No Fear! No Pity! NO REMORSE!"

Battle cry of the Black Templar Space Marine Chapter.

 

[-Samurai-]

"No....Fuck you."
They can't all be serious.

 

[FateOrFatality]

Everytime this thread comes up I post the same thing, because its just that bad ass. This is Karl Marx's response to his maid asking to record his last words as he lies on his death bed.

"Last words are for fools who haven't said enough."

 

[ImSkeletor]

Go to hell!

You first *Bang*-Tombstone

 

[scarecrow350]

"my pain may be the cause of someones laughter, but my laughter may never be the cause for someones pain"
Charlie Chaplin
I live by this saying

 

[Muspelheim]

"Always temper your strength with wisdom..."

Of course, there's the famous (and quite sadly possibly untrue) last words of Voltaire. On his deathbed, a man came from the church in an attempt to give him his last rights and to renounce satan, to which he supposedly replied "Now, now. This is not the time to make enemies".

Oh, and on a similar vein:

"Good girls goes to heaven. The rest of 'em can get as far as they please".

Well, something like that... Doesn't go through translation very well.

Jon Lajoie has had some amazing inspirational quotes. Here are some samples.

"It's not what your country can do for you but what your country can steal from other countries"

"Jon, be strong. Strength will help you break things."

"There is nothing to fear but fear of tigers"

"When life gives you lemons.... throw them at people who own expensive cars"

LaJoie is a paragon of wisdom.

OT: Too many to list myself, but here are some good ones (and the stories behind them):

"I don't care wether it's God's own anti-son-of-a-*****-machine, or a giant hoolahoop, we're not gonna let them have it. What we will let them have is a belly full of lead, and a pool of their own blood to drown in. Am I right marines?" "Sir! Yes, sir!" "Damn right I am."
