So, what movies are you famous for quoting? Mine would be: -anything said by Oprah Winfrey's character Sophia in The Color Purple i.e..."You bettah bash mistas heed open and think about heaven latah"...or my personal fave "hail NOOOOO"

-anything said by Dolly Parton in any movie she's been in

-Any line from Footloose

-Jody Foster in Sommersby

-Any line from Romancing the Stone ..."You are zhoan Wilder...theeeeee zhoan Wilder?"

Most any line from Steel Magnolias is good. There are also some great one-liners from Under the Tuscan Sun.

Anchorman may be the most quotable movie in film history.

Fargo is up there as well.

I find myself quoting "Spaceballs", "Pulp Fiction" and "Quest for The Holy Grail" a hell of a lot.

Well, those and whatever the conversation triggers in my head.

I can't stop finding ways to incorporate "That's What She/He Said" into every conversation I have....not that it originally came from a movie.. but on the subject of quotes. Mmmmmm. The Office.

My wife and I do that ALL THE TIME. With some of my friends at work too.
