Gentlemen, and ladies, hold the presses. This just in. By curious quirk of fate, we have the perfect story with which to launch our satellite news network tonight. It seems a small crisis is brewing in the South China Seas. I want full newspaper coverage, I want magazine stories, I want books, I want films, I want TV, I want radio, I want us on the air 24 hours a day, this is our moment! And a billion people around this planet will watch it, hear it, and read about it from the Carver Media Group.

There's no news, like bad news.

Elliot Carver in Tomorrow Never Dies.
 
"Isn't life disappointing?"

"Yes, it is."

Some of my favorite movie quotes are as follows:
"I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse." - Vito Corleone, The Godfather
"Bond. James Bond." - James Bond, all Bond films

"You'll dress only in attire specially sanctioned by MIB Special Services. You'll conform to the identity we give you, eat where we tell you, live where we tell you. From now on, you'll have no identifying marks of any kind. You'll not stand out in any way. Your entire image is crafted to leave no lasting memory with anyone you encounter. You're a rumor, recognizable only as déjà vu and dismissed just as quickly. You don't exist. You were never even born. Anonymity is your name, silence your native tongue. You're no longer part of the System. You are above the System. Over it. Beyond it. We're "them". We're "they". We are the Men in Black." - Zed, Men In Black
"Today. Today... at the edge of our hope, at the end of our time, we have chosen not only to believe in ourselves, but in each other. Today there is not a man nor woman in here that shall stand alone. Not today. Today we face the monsters that are at our door, and bring the fight to them. Today, we are canceling the apocalypse!" - Stacker Pendtecost, Pacific Rim
"Clever girl." - Robert Muldoon, Jurassic Park
 
everything from The Big Lebowski. also partial to this one from Breathless:

- "What's your greatest ambition in life?"
- "To become immortal, and then die."
 
- "What's your greatest ambition in life?"
- "To become immortal, and then die."

I will be dying and so will you, and so will everyone here. That's what I want to explore. We're all hurtling towards death, yet here we are for the moment, alive. Each of us knowing we're going to die, each of us secretly believing we won't
-Synecdoche, New York (2008)

Now I have only one thing left to do: nothing. I don't want any belongings, any memories. No friends, no love. Those are all traps.

"You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain." from the Dark Night. Maybe it's a cliche choice but I think it does resonate with life a bit.
Batman Begins is so much better for quotes imo


"It's not who I am underneath... but what I *do*... that defines me" - my personal favourite
