Well I was curious, what are some of your favorite movie/tv quotes?
I think one of my all time favorites will always be from Interview with a vampire
"God kills indiscriminately, and so shall we. For no creature under God are as we are, none so like himself, as ourselves."
I love this quote so much for several reasons. Just the context in what it was said, the way it was delivered, the meaning behind it. Truely it was one of Anne Rice's greatest ideas, hidden inside one of the greatest vampire movies out there.

In the past, people were born royal. Nowadays, royalty comes from what you do. Work Hard, Play Hard.

No. If we don't have the key, we can't open whatever it is we don't have that it unlocks. So what purpose would be served in finding whatever need be unlocked, which we don't have, without first having found the key what unlocks it?

@naka Movie and TV quotes...and you pull up a lot of game quotes *shakes head* And none that are even that memorial. First of all, the first quote is from the movie 30 days of Night >.> Secondly, you make it seem as if they were meant for you. Fact is, these are memorable for me, therefore they are MY favorites.. not yours. Though I really should find movie quotes, but then again the fact that I don't remember any despite watching a lot of movies just means they aren't that memorable for me. Despite that, I didn't actually read the first part saying movie/tv quotes, and I also don't find yours memorable at that... I'll pull out some boondocks quotes for ya. TBW: I'll tells ya like this Chris "And some", I like ya, and I want ya, now we can do this the easy way, or we can do this the hard way, the choice is yours. Riley: I heard your mama was caught given up neck in the bathroom at the country club and the man WASN'T yo daddy Stinkmeaner: WHAT DID YOU SAY NIGGA? Dat's RIGHT! You just got kicked in yo chest! What you gonna do nyukka? WHAT YOU GONNA DO!? Thugnificent's Homeboy: Ay we be flippin' dem burgers at Wendy's, my nigga. ... Know what I mean? With the fries and shit! I do whateva nigga! Shakes, all that, "extra ketchup?" Here, you need some napkins" you feel me? ... my bad I wasn't thinking... you know I shoulda said like... Burger King... Leonard: NO! It's NOT chicken! It's buffalo! Say it with me BUFFALO, BUFFALO WINGS. Ruckus' Dad: Nigga did you just break that vase? (smack) Ruckus' Dad: Nigga did I just catch you having fun? (smack) Ruckus' Dad: Nigga did I just catch you wanting to be shit? (smack) Tom: YOU CAN'T HAVE MY BOOTY!!!

Because I stated and explained why my quote was memoriable to me, and anyone who has watched Interview with a Vampire, would begin to understand it. Anyone who has watched it, read the book, and read The Vampire Lestat would Truely understand why it is so memoriable.

Even though it's not a direct quote from historical Lu Bu, it is memorable for me because I had played the games, heard the delivery, and knew how fearsome and mighty he was.
The boondocks quotes are just funny and made me laugh hard.
The quote about the funeral made me laugh and I looked it up because I didn't believe Mark Twain said it, turns out I could be right as there are 3 people that are said to have said it, though out of the 3 there is only evidence that Mark Twain didn't say it.
The 30 Days of Night quote run out to me because, though Christian (Non-denominational), I have always questioned whether there is a God or not. We'll leave that as is.
Kyofu wo oshiete yarou (I will teach you fear), I just like quotes like this and the way it was said in the context of the trailer was pretty epic.
My point: Just because a quote doesn't have a deep meaning, doesn't mean it's not memorable to some people. What's not memorable to you may be memorable to someone else for their own reasons. Hell, my professor could quote the Iliad to anyone he so chose, however the words he spoke would only be words to some of the students, while memorable to others. Instead of coming at me sideways like you did at first, asking the question "Why are those quotes memorable to you?" would've been more appropriate. Personally I haven't read much on the Vampire Lestat or any work by the woman you spoke of your OP, therefore the quote does not ring out to me in the same way it does for you. One thing I learned is that in this world there are no absolutes, just as there are some people who read her work and loved it, there are those who read and hated it. Same rings true for quotes in the book, there could possibly be things in the book you found profound while others do not.
Whew. This was long-winded. D:

Kill bill 2.
Bill: What lies within that dart, just begging to course its way through your veins, is a potent and quite infallible truth serum. I call it "The Undisputed Truth." Twice as strong as sodium penethol, with none of the druggie after-effect. Oh, except for a slight wave of euphoria. Can you feel it? The Bride: Euphoria? Bill: Yeah. The Bride: No. Bill: Too bad.

Edward Blake, The Comedian, born 1918, buried in the rain. Murdered. Is that what happens to us? No time for friends? Only our enemies leave roses. Violent lives ending violently. Blake understood. Humans are savage in nature. No matter how much you try to dress it up, to disguise it. Blake saw society's true face. Chose to be a parody of it, a joke. I heard a joke once. Man goes to doctor, says he's depressed. Life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says "Treatment is simple. The great clown, Pagliacci, is in town. Go see him. That should pick you up". Man bursts into tears. "But doctor", he says, "I am Pagliacci." Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains.
