Is there a line from a movie that really resonated with you but when you say it most people don't get the reference?

"It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life."

Jean-Luc Picard

No, just endless Simpsons references that fall on deaf ears.

Aziz light!

(Fifth Element)

"Kick his ass, Sea Bass!"

ITT, people giving quotes but not saying from what movie

“Would you like to know more?”

These are my go to quotes from Snatch and The Big Lebowski that I use whenever the occasion arises. Not everyone gets the reference. I also refer to my anxiety meds as "anti anxiety disco biscuits." I got that one from Shameless - my doctor got a kick out of that.

"What's happening with them sausages, Charlie?"

"In the quiet words of the Virgin Mary... come again?"

"D'ya like dags?"

"You're out of your element!"

"This aggression will not stand, man."

"Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man"

I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve

"why do we fall? ... So we can learn to pick ourselves up again"

Whenever someone says anything remotely close to "you can imagine what happens next" or "you can guess where this is going" I say:

"He fixes the cable?"

"shit"

Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)

There are just so many quotable lines from Kung Pow

"That's a lot of nuts!"

"You go that way, I'll go home."

"We trained him wrong as a joke"

"If you got an ass I'll kick it!"

"My nipples look like Milk Duds!"

"I'm a man too, you know. I go peepee standing up!"

"I rock and roll, all day long, sweet Susie!"

"Leap that wall, if you're so great!"

"I'm a nice man with happy feelings all the time!"

"I've got some yellow liquid for your popcorn, and it's non-dairy!"

"boil 'em, mash 'em, stick them in a stew"

Not from a movie, but there's a line from The Office that really stuck with me:

"Not everything's a lesson, Ryan. Sometimes, you just fail."

Its dumb, but whenever someone mentions peaches I always hit them with "I could eat peaches for hours". An obscure line from Face Off but for whatever reason it's stuck in my head over all these years. No one ever gets the reference.

"No sir, I didn't like it"

-Mr. Horse

Pain don't hurt.

Some people get it, but most don't.

"I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me"

Im in fucking Austria. Illiterate farmers the lot of them here. Nobody has ever seen a movie in English or any other language than German.

There is nothing I can quote that they would recognise.

So alone.

Worrying is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but doesn’t get you anywhere. -Van Wilder

I love to say, “Hello there!” Whether in game (on an mmorpg) or in person at a party and hold my breath, waiting in anticipation to see if anyone gets it.

"Some motherfuckers are always trying to ice-skate uphill."

• Wesley Snipes as 'Blade' in Blade

"Constantly talking isn't necessarily communicating."

"I'll buy that for a dollar!"

No matter where you go, there you are.

"Your mother sucks ***** in hell!"

If everyone's super, no one is. -Syndrome, The Incredibles

Mine is from City Slickers. Billy Crystal keeps saying "hellooooooo" to the cows in a kind of half-moo voice. I use it all the time and no one gets it.

Ive always been saying a line from a movie that even I didn't remember the movie:

"We're walking... We're walking..."

I had to look it up when a friend asked what movie it was from.

"Tell 'im he's dreamin' "

the original of Vanilla Sky, "Open Your Eyes" is an incredible movie

"Technical fowl!" From that animated Adam Sandler movie about Hanukkah

"Listen to the sounds of the machine" From Elephant's Dream, a short animated film.

I'm an engineer, and there's something almost spiritual about that line and its delivery. I think about it every time I'm debugging or trying to understand how a complex system works

"If I say 'I know,' I stop thinking."

Nobody has ever gotten the reference, and many don't even get it after I explain it.

(It's from Nicholas Roeg's movie Insignificance, and it's said by an Einstein expy just called The Professor, explaining why it is that he's careful to always say that he thinks that ____ or believes that ____ or that the leading theory is that ____.)

"Woo-sah"

Serpentine!

"I know he can get the job, but can he do the job?"

"careful with the radio, it's a radio."

-Cheech from New Movie

"Heineken? Pabst Blue Ribbon!"

Said it once. Never again.

"What did we learn, Palmer?"

“Save me a piece of that corn for later!”

Every time my dog watches me eat: "Look how curious the puppy is!" (From Lilo and Stitch)

This is all YOUR fault, beatnik!

"That's....relativity..."

A moment of pain is worth a lifetime of glory. Remember that.

"Bat-ter-i-zees" from True Lies

Now you’re learning’ boyo!

"Yeah... they really lived."

-Secondhand Lions

Two of my favourite lines come from "The Matador" 2005 (Arguably one of the best movies Pierce Brosnan did).

• I hate these Catholic countries. All blushy-blushy no sucky-fucky.

• I'm as serious as an erection problem.

"Because you let us". Seriously regret seeing that movie.

"the future is now"

Next time Jack write a god damned memo!

"Because you'll be together".

• Inception, Mal, with her head on railroad track

There's a line right at the end of an extremely obscure animated film from when I was a kid. It ain't a great movie. And I didn't fall in love with it even at the time, but that line somehow stuck in my mind to this day and I re-discovered it a couple months ago. I'll just hint that it takes place in a sky world and Mark f*ckin' Hamill does the narration. "Comme des anges" is the line in question (Since I saw it in French as a kid) but it probably translates to "Like angels" in English. I tried to find it and it was impossible to stream or buy that movie in any form nowadays.

Online or IRL? Cuz IRL, this is what I get with most things I quote. Online, I've only really gotten it when quoting super new shit, like when there was just the first season of I Think You Should Leave.

I constantly say “I'm doing my suduku, okay?” and people just think I’m an idiot who doesn’t know how it’s pronounced. (from The Heat)

"A beatin' ain't the worst thing in life that's gonna happen to you. You stand it like a man. And give some back."

-Al Swearengen

You think I sound crazy. I mean, it's amazing. You people...

You wear helmets when you ride your bikes.

You have seat belts in your cars.

You have alarm systems to protect your homes. But what do you do when those alarms go off?

"Crazy" is building your ark after the flood has already come!
