I thought it would be fun to create a fresh thread to share quotes from movies, shows, and books that are your personal favorites or are simply culturally memorable. I want to keep this OP uncluttered so I'll post some quotes I love or that are iconic when I get home in a bit (writing this from my phone).

Martin Vanger: It's hard to believe that the fear of offending can be stronger than the fear of pain, but you know what? It is.

My favourite movie is The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, but the Swedish original is much better.

Older Pete: If you can take it, you can make it.
From: Unbroken

Samantha: The heart is not like a box that gets filled up; it expands in size the more you love. I'm different from you. This doesn't make me love you any less. It actually makes me love you more.
From: Her

What is Dubsmash?

It's a popular app that has short recordings of audio from movies or other genres of pop culture such as TV shows and YouTube that users select and then record a video of themselves dubbing. My (almost) 8-year-old sister adores this app and loves making videos with our dad, even though she's never seen many of the movies they dub. She's a sweet, sentimental kid and is feeling really homesick while off at sleep-away camp for the first time. Campers are only permitted to pop online once a week, so he made DubSmashes every day and then put them all together in a video for her just to make her laugh.
I'll share it as an example of what the app is like, and what I mean by movie lines that almost everyone has heard even if they haven't seen the movie. I promise he's not a buffoon or anything; he's just willing to be her jester.

I keep the majority of my videos on that channel password protected, so this won't remain publicly viewable for long, but for now it works.

As for my favorite movie quotes -----

"There should be no boundaries to human endeavor. We are all different. However bad life may seem, there is always something you can do, and succeed at. While there's life, there is hope."
~ Stephen Hawking, The Theory of Everything

"Rudeness is merely an expression of fear. People fear they won't get what they want. The most dreadful and unattractive person only needs to be loved, and they will open up like a flower."
~ M. Gustave, The Grand Budapest Hotel

"Perfection is not just about control. It's also about letting go. Surprise yourself so you can surprise the audience. Transcendence! Very few have it in them."
~ Thomas Leroy, Black Swan

Adult Pi Patel: "Faith is a house with many rooms."
Writer: "But no room for doubt?"
Adult Pi Patel: "Oh plenty, on every floor. Doubt is useful, it keeps faith a living thing. After all, you cannot know the strength of your faith until it is tested."
~ The Life of Pi

"It was one of those days when it's a minute away from snowing and there's this electricity in the air, you can almost hear it. Right? And this bag was just dancing with me. Like a little kid begging me to play with it. For fifteen minutes. That's the day I realized that there was this entire life behind things, and this incredibly benevolent force that wanted me to know there was no reason to be afraid, ever. Video's a poor excuse, I know. But it helps me remember... I need to remember... Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world, I feel like I can't take it, and my heart is just going to cave in."
~ Ricky Fitts, American Beauty

"[Voice over; letter to his daughter] For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again."
~ Benjamin Button, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

I hope others will share when they get the time. :)
