The girl I'm dating right now...I frequently will spout out a movie quote and she gives me a blank stare because she's not much into watching movies or T.V.

Course...it could be argued she's giving me a blank stare for other reasons as well...lol.

A few examples from Apocalypse Now, off the top of my head…

"Charley don't surf!", "I love the smell of Napalm in the morning", "The horror...the horror" and "terminate with extreme prejudice".
Just a quibble, but "The horror...the horror" was lifted from The Heart of Darkness by Joyce. And it was a pretty famous line already.

You mean by Conrad.

No, actually I believe it was William Conrad. I remember watching that episode of "Cannon". I believe it was "Hounds of Hell".

I have to admit, the movie quote that has most stuck with me all these years is, "So I've got that going for me. Which is nice."

Mrs. Funk, do you believe in God, the Father almighty? Creator of heaven and Earth?

Do you believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, Our Lord?

Do you believe in the Holy Ghost and the holy Catholic Church?

Mrs. Funk, do you renounce Satan and all his works and all his pomps?

Mrs. Funk, would you be baptized?

Mrs Funk, go in peace and my the Lord be with you. Amen.

Great quote. Karl Spackler is awesome.
