Famous Movie Quotes

Al Pacino (Michael): My father is no different than any powerful man, any man with power, like a president or senator.
Diane Keaton (Kay): Do you know how naive you sound, Michael? Presidents and senators don't have men killed!
Al Pacino (Michael): Oh. Who's being naive, Kay?

Marlon Brando (Don Corleone): What have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully? If you'd come to me in friendship, then this scum that ruined your daughter would be suffering this very day. And if by chance an honest man like yourself should make enemies, then they would become my enemies. And then they would fear you.

Marlon Brando (Don Corleone): Someday, and that day may never come, I'll call upon you to do a service for me. But until that day accept this justice as gift on my daughter's wedding day

James Caan (Sonny Corleone): I want someone good, I mean very good, to plant that gun. I don't want my brother coming out of the bathroom with just his dick in his hands.

Richard Castellano (Pete Clemenza): It's a Sicilian message. It means Luca Brasi sleeps with the fishes.

Robert Duvall (Tom Hagen): Mr. Corleone never asks a second favor once he's refused the first, understood?

Marlon Brando (Don Corleone): I never wanted this for you. I work my whole life - I don't apologize - to take care of my family, and I refused to be a fool, dancing on the string held by all those bigshots. I don't apologize - that's my life - but I thought that, that when it was your time, that you would be the one to hold the string. Senator Corleone; Governor Corleone. Well, it wasn't enough time, Michael. It wasn't enough time.
Al Pacino (Michael): We'll get there, pop. We'll get there.

~motivational quotes for teenagers by Author Unknown

Every morning I spend fifteen minutes filling my mind full of God; and so there's no room left for worry thoughts.
~famous quotes about God by Howard Chandler Christy

At sixteen I was stupid, confused and indecisive. At twenty-five I was wise, self-confident, prepossessing and assertive. At forty-five I am stupid, confused, insecure and indecisive. Who would have supposed that maturity is only a short break in adolescence?
~Famous teenagers sayings by Jules Feiffer

Getting down on all fours and imitating a rhinoceros stops babies from crying. (Put an empty cigarette pack on your nose for a horn and make loud snort noises.) I don't know why parents don't do this more often. Usually it makes the kid laugh. Sometimes it sends him into shock. Either way it quiets him down. If you're a parent, acting like a rhino has another advantage. Keep it up until the kid is a teenager and he definitely won't have his friends hanging around your house all the time.
~Wise sayings by P.J. O'Rourke
