Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Sure, I stole it. But isn't that the point? That's what it's there for.
Barack Obama uses a line or two from someone else and all of a sudden
it's a big campaign story. But should it be a story at all?
I'll get you my pretty...and your little wife too.
You had me at hello.
Well, here's another fine mess you've gotten me into.
Here's Johnny!
This is for all the lonely people.
I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse.
Shaken, not stirred.
Houston, we have a problem
What if I say I'm not like the others.
Listen to me, mister. You're my knight in shining armor. Don't you forget
it. You're going to get back on that horse, and I'm going to be right
behind you, holding on tight, and away we're gonna go, go, go!
All the world is a stage...Nothing can come of nothing
Say hello to my little friend.
I am big. It's the picture that got small.
Plastics.
Show me the money.
Keep your friends close but your enemies closer.
Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
A plague on both your houses.
Never interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake.
They're he—re.
I'll have what she's having.
