Princess Bride:
“My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, now prepare to die.” -Inigo Montoya. Legit his deadpan expression whilst delivering the line makes me laugh every time.

"What if I'm not the hero? What if I'm the bad guy." From the Twilight saga.

Shows how real characters are dimensional and not just one sided. How we all have some good and bad in us. How we can be someones hero and another person's villain. How things are almost never black or white but a series of greys.

"I am no man."
Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
I think it's one of the best quotes in literature too, but the delivery it just too awesome in the movie.

I didn't think of this one at first, but it's definitely one of my favorites!
Also, "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
He's a treasure trove of good quotes.

My favourite line in the supernatural
Castiel: Its so complex. If the pizza man really loves the baby sitter then why is he slapping her rear. Maybe she has done something wrong.

There are so many lines that I love, but if I can pick only one, it would have to be this one from The Third Man: "...in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.

Run, Forrest, run! It's so simple but I love that line from the movie Forrest Gump. There were too many things about that show I enjoyed.

I like the part where the Narrator say this "So you see, the story is not quite as you were told"- Maleficent.Sometimes we believe on something we are not sure or having no proof at all. It really hit me remembering how other people judge others.We shouldn't judge a book by it's cover.We always based it by looks and not having or knowing it by heart.Sometimes we only knew the part of the story but not the whole.
