I love reading books and watching TV / Movies. Here are some of the quotes that I really like. :)
books
"Certain things, they should stay the way they are. You ought to be able to stick them in one of those big glass cases and just leave them alone." - Holden Caulfield (The Catcher in the Rye)
"Nothing is more deceitful than the appearance of humility. It is often carelessness of opinion, and sometimes an indirect boast." - Mr. Darcy (Pride and Prejudice, chapter 10)
[to Elizabeth Bennet] "In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you." -Mr. Darcy (Pride and Prejudice, chapter 11)
[to Mr. Darcy] "You could not have made me the offer of your hand in any possible way that would have tempted me to accept it." - Elizabeth Bennet (Pride and Prejudice, chapter 11)
[to Lady Catherine] "...I have said no such thing. I am only resolved to act in that manner which will, in my own opinion, constitute my happiness, without reference to you, or to any person so wholly unconnected to me. " - Elizabeth Bennet (Pride and Prejudice, chapter 14)
[to Miss Bingley] "...A lady's imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment. I knew that you would be wishing me joy." - Mr. Darcy (Pride and Prejudice, chapter 6)

"As I have begun, so I will go on. We come now to the very brink, where hope and despair are akin. To waver is to fall." - Aragorn (LOTR: The Return of the King, Book V, chapter 9: 'The Last Debate')
[to Faramir] " I wished to be loved by another, but I desire no man's pity." - Eowyn (LOTR: The Return of the King, Book VI, chapter 5: 'The Steward and the King')

Julianne Potter: "I'm pond scum. Well, lower
actually. I'm like the fungus that feeds on pond scum."
Michael O'Neill: "Lower. The pus that infects the mucus that cruds up the fungus
that feeds on the pond scum. On the other hand, thank you for loving me that
much, that way. It's pretty flattering."
Julianne Potter: "Except it makes me fungus."
Kimmy Wallace: "I can be Jell-O."

arrogant and scared to realize it, and... well, now I'm just scared. So, I
realize this comes at a very inopportune time but I really have this gigantic
favor to ask of you. Choose me. Marry me. Let me make you happy. Oh, that sounds
like three favors, doesn't it?" - Julianne Potter
"I love this man, and there is no way that I'm gonna give him up to some two-faced, big-haired food critic." - Kimmy Wallace
"He's got you on a pedestal and me in his arms." - Kimmy Wallace
-- One Fine Day -- movie
Jack Taylor: You're asking me for help.
Melanie Parker: It would appear that way, wouldn't it?

armor."
Melanie Parker: Jack, don't be a shithead. Go rescue our kids.
Jack Taylor: This is hard for you, isn't it?
Jack: What would you do if I kissed you right now?
Melanie: You wouldn't kiss me.
Jack: But what would you do if I did?
Melanie: Do you wanna kiss me right now?
Jack: I wouldn't have mentioned it if didn't.
Melanie: Your Peter Pan complex is so 90s.
Jack: What Peter Pan complex?
Melanie: The one you're so proud of.
Jack: Do you have any friends?
Melanie: I don't have time for friends.
Jack: That's because of your Captain Hook complex.

"That thing, that moment, when you kiss someone and everything around becomes hazy and the only thing in focus is you and this person and you realize that that person is the only person that you're supposed to kiss for the rest of your life, and for one moment you get this amazing gift and you want to laugh and you want to cry because you feel so lucky that you found it and so scared that that it will go away all at the same time." - Josie Geller (Never Been Kissed)
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return." - Christian (Moulin Rouge)
