By coincidence I watched My Darling Clementine on TCM  this evening.  There is a great line.  Henry Fonda as Wyatt Earp says to the bartender,  "Mac, have you ever been in love?"  Mac answers "No.  I've been a bartender all my life."

I thought of another one.  Gary Cooper in "The Westerner".  Walter Brennan, as usual, stole every scene.

Best line ever in a movie?

Wow!  How could I forget "Groundhog Day"?   The most zen movie ever.

Oh, fuck the Dalai Lama and his version of the Fruit of Islam. I've never bothered watching this despite having a copy, but that may have to do with a lack of time to really analyze something that I have heard is popular with "Tibetan Buddhists."

I'm more of a Mahayanist than fucking Richard Gere, just to drag up one of the usual suspects. And then of course there are the putative Kabbalalistas.

This needs a heavy dose of Richard Lester.

I believe he was in "Gerbil Day".

If we're going to do great lines from movies, we might as well just start a "Cool Hand Luke" thread.
