I know Star Trek: Generations isn't everyone's favorite Star Trek movie, but it's got some of my favorite Star Trek moments and quotes.  I like Picard's quote at the end, especially:

"Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey and reminds us to cherish every moment, because it will never come again."
CROW:  (Sinisterly) The Secret Government Eggo Project...
--Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie

"Jason, Chess is a game of chance."
-- My friend Shawn to my friend Jason upon being defeated at a game of Chess.

Yes, oh confused ones, there are more than one thread regarding quotes, however this one that I created back in November of last year was specifically for the best movie quotes, not just any old quote that strikes your fancy. Sure, you can quote a movie in ol' Thom's "Quote Something!" thread, but here is more towards best movie quotes, to counter the "worst movie quotes" started oh so long ago.

The Duke will die before these eyes, and he'll know, HE'LL KNOW; that it is I, Baron Vladamir Harkkonen who encompasses his doom!

My most humble apologies, sir.

Thom had me convinced that quoting things was his favorite pastime.   ;)

Man With No Name: You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig.

Tuco: When you have to shoot, shoot, don't talk.

Andy Dufresne: Get busy living, or get busy dying.

Kambei Shimada: Danger always strikes when everything seems fine.

Major T. J. "King" Kong: Survival kit contents check. In them you'll find: one forty-five caliber automatic; two boxes of ammunition; four days' concentrated emergency rations; one drug issue containing antibiotics, morphine, vitamin pills, pep pills, sleeping pills, tranquilizer pills; one miniature combination Russian phrase book and Bible; one hundred dollars in rubles; one hundred dollars in gold; nine packs of chewing gum; one issue of prophylactics; three lipsticks; three pair of nylon stockings. Shoot, a fella' could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff.

Leland: That's all he ever wanted out of life... was love. That's the tragedy of Charles Foster Kane. You see, he just didn't have any to give.

Kurtz: I watched a snail crawl along the edge of a straight razor. That's my dream. That's my nightmare. Crawling, slithering, along the edge of a straight... razor... and surviving.

Travis Bickle: Listen, you f*ckers, you screwheads. Here is a man who would not take it anymore. A man who stood up against the scum, the c*nts, the dogs, the filth, the sh*t. Here is a man who stood up.

Travis Bickle: Loneliness has followed me my whole life, everywhere. In bars, in cars, sidewalks, stores, everywhere. There's no escape. I'm God's lonely man.

Jefferson Smith: [His voice very hoarse] Just get up off the ground, that's all I ask. Get up there with that lady that's up on top of this Capitol dome, that lady that stands for liberty. Take a look at this country through her eyes if you really want to see something. And you won't just see scenery; you'll see the whole parade of what Man's carved out for himself, after centuries of fighting. Fighting for something better than just jungle law, fighting so's he can stand on his own two feet, free and decent, like he was created, no matter what his race, color, or creed. That's what you'd see. There's no place out there for graft, or greed, or lies, or compromise with human liberties. And, uh, if that's what the grownups have done with this world that was given to them, then we'd better get those boys' camps started fast and see what the kids can do. And it's not too late, because this country is bigger than the Taylors, or you, or me, or anything else. Great principles don't get lost once they come to light. They're right here; you just have to see them again!

Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.

McMurphy: I must be crazy to be in a loony bin like this.

Atticus Finch: Now gentlemen, in this country our courts are the great levelers, and in our courts all men are created equal. I'm no idealist to believe firmly in the integrity of our courts and of our jury system. That's no ideal to me. That is a living, working reality. Now I am confident that you gentlemen will review without passion the evidence that you have heard, come to a decision, and restore this man to his family. In the name of God, do your duty. In the name of God, believe Tom Robinson.

Alex: It's funny how the colors of the real world only seem really real when you viddy them on the screen.

Norman Bates: Uh-uh, Mother-m-mother, uh, what is the phrase? She isn't quite herself today.

Dorothy: There's no place like home!   There's no place like home!  There's no place like home!

Some quotes I'm partial to:

"Mos Eisley Spaceport. Never will you find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy."

"This is where Forrestal cashed in. He was good. He was very, very good."

"Livingston don't have what you'd call a doing time type of disposition."

'...the central tenet of Buddhism is not 'every man for himself' ."

"Well hello Mr. Fancy-pants! Right now you're not leading but jack and shit. And jack left town."

"You know the definition of a hero? Someone who gets other people killed."

"He's an absentee landlord!"

"I stick my neck out for nobody."

Just a few that come to mind.
