24 unforgettable quotes from film history

Personally, I don’t know anyone who doesn’t enjoy watching a good movie. Escape from your own life for a while and get involved in the story of others. In this article we will therefore discuss some of the most famous quotes in film history.

…and that park bench, the ice cream parlor on the corner and the lantern that divides the darkness of the night between two streets. We associate places with memories that we don’t want to forget and that connect invisibly with who we are.

These are ideals that have cost many lives, heartbeats that have made it possible for us to live in a better world.

The words “darling” are used in this statement, but they might as well be substituted for another name. Sometimes people say things to us that don’t really matter at all, especially when it’s just empty chatter or gossip about someone else.

This phrase is spoken by actor Clark Gable in the movie Gone With the Wind . These are the last words he says to Scarlett O’hara (Vivian Leigh) towards the end of the film, when Scarlett asks Rhett, “Where shall I go? What shall I do?” the moment he leaves her. Rhett responds with the famous statement above and then closes the door behind him.

This statement from the mother of the great Forrest Gump is without a doubt one of the most beautiful and clearly expressed definitions of all time. In this statement we can recognize a generally ignored reality that a large part of the decisions we make in life are made blindly. And at the same time, life is described as a box of chocolates, a sweet present! 

In the movie Gran Torino, Walt Kowalski makes this statement when he confronts three young men who normally act out of intimidation. With this statement, he not only gets their attention, but also lets them know that he will not be intimidated and that he knows them.

It’s not really normal to see dead people, but it’s much more normal to see things that don’t exist. Our senses are far from infallible and they not only omit certain feelings, but in some cases they will even invent feelings!

The sixth sense has become popular as the sense that collects unknown information in an unknown way and as the sense that influences our decisions. Sometimes we call it our intuition.

For many of us, this is just a science fiction movie, but for others, it’s the best friendship story ever told on the big screen.
