"The question is...do I have a God complex. Which makes we wonder if this lawyer has any ideas as to the kind of grades one has to receive in college to be accepted in a top medical school, or if you have the vaguest clue as to how talented someone has to be to lead a surgical team. I have an MD from Harvard. I am board certified in Cardio-Thoracic medicine and trauma surgery. I have been awarded seven different citations from medical boards in New England and I am never, ever, sick at sea. So I ask you, when someone goes into that chappel and they fall on their knees and they pray to God that their wife doesn't miscarry, or that their daughter doesn't bleed to death, or that their mother doesn't suffer acute neural trauma from post-operative shock, who do you think they're praying to? Go ahead and read your bible, and you go to your church and with any luck you might win the annual raffle. But if your looking for God, he was in operating room number two on November 17 and he doesn't like to be second guessed. You ask me if I have a God complex? Let me tell you something, I am God...and this sideshow...is over." - Alex Baldwin from the Movie "Mailce"
"I've done far worse than kill you...I've hurt you. And I wish to go on...hurting you. I shall leave you, as you left me, as you left her. Marooned for all eternity in the center of a dead planet. Buried alive. Buried alive." Ricardo Montablan from the movie "Star Trek 2"
Ok...one more....
"I hate this place, this zoo, this prison, this reality, whatever you want to call it. Its the smell, if there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste your stink and every time I do I feel as if I've somehow been infected by it, its repulsive. I must get out of here, I must get free..." Agent Smith (don't remember the actor's name) from the movie "The Matrix"

Ah, Ah...I know what you're thinking. Did he fire 6 shots or only 5. But being this is a .44 magnum the most powerful handgun in the world and could blow your head clean off, you got to ask yourself a question. Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya punk?

Sometimes actions speak louder than words...
The closing scene in High Noon when Gary Cooper throws his badge into the dirt, snickers at the townspeople, and rides off with Grace Kelly.
And
Bringing up Baby, when Cary Grant answers the door, in Katherine Hepburn's frilly robe, receives a dumbfounded look from the the man who rang, and say's sarcastically "I've just gone gay!"

That was the most memorable line in "Network" (a truly classic satire), but the most memorable dialog was a speech Ned Beatty gives. Ned Beatty was on the screen less than 5 minutes but his speech was such a over the top performance he got a nomination for best supporting actor. This is the speech Beatty gave:
It is the international system of currency which determines the vitality of life on this planet. That is the natural order of things today. That is the atomic and subatomic and galactic structure of things today! And you have meddled with the primal forces of nature! And you will atone! Am I getting through to you, Mr. Beale? You get up on your little 21 inch screen and howl about America and democracy. There is no America. There is no democracy. There is only IBM and ITT, and AT&T, and DuPont, Dow, Union Carbide, and Exxon. Those are the nations of the world today. You have meddled with the primal forces of nature, Mr. Beale, and I won't have it! Is that clear? You think you've merely stopped a business deal? That is not the case. The Arabs have taken billions of dollars out of this country, and now they must put it back! It is ebb and flow, tidal gravity. It is ecological balance. You are an old man who thinks in terms of nations and peoples. There are no nations! There are no peoples! There are no Russians! There are no Arabs! There are no third worlds! There is no West! There is only one holistic system of systems; one vast, interwoven, interacting, multivaried, multinational dominion of dollars! The world is a business, Mr. Beale. It has been since man crawled out of the slime. Our children will live, Mr. Beale, to see that perfect world in which there's no war or famine, oppression or brutality -- one vast and ecumenical holding company, for whom all men will work to serve a common profit, in which all men will hold a share of stock -- all necessities provided, all anxieties tranquilized, all boredom amused. And I have chosen you, Mr. Beale, to preach this evangel.
