Dialogues in Movies

• Stern: Let me understand. They put up all the money, I do all the work. What, if you don't mind my asking, would you do?
  Schindler: I'd make sure it's known the company's in business. I'd see that it had a certain panache. That's what I'm good at. Not the work, not the work! (Confidently) The presentation. (from "Schindler's List)
  
  
• (Schindler is trying to bribe the German army officer.)
  Schindler:Let me explain my reasons. I'm not making any judgment about you. It's just that I knew that in the coming months we're all going to need portable welth.
  Commander:I could have you arrested.
  Schindler:I am pretected by powerful friends. You should know that.
  Commander:I do not say I am accepting them. All I say is I am not comfortable with them on the table. (Then he put the jewels in his pocket.)
  
  
• Stern:Look, the list is an absolute good. The list...is life. All around its margins lies the gulf.
  
  
• (When a woman Jewish engineer argues with Amon about the foundation of the building.)
  Reiter:I'm a graduate of Civil Engineering from the University of Bonn.
  Goethe:Ah, an educated Jew...like Karl Marx himself. Unterscharfuehrer! Shoot her!
  Reiter:Herr Kommandant! I'm only trying to do my job!
  Goethe:Yah. I'm doing mine.
  
  
• Colonel:Who the hell you think you're talking to? I've been around, you know? There was a time I could see. And I have seen boys like these, younger than these, their arms torn out, their legs ripped off, but there is nothing like the sight of an amputated soul! There is no prosthetic for that! (from "Scent of a Woman")
  
  
• (When Colonel Frank went back home from his trip to New York.)
  Colonel:I hear a chipmunk. Is it a walrus? No, it's Willie. Willie, why don't you help me with my bag?
  
  
• Michael:My father is no different than any powerful man, any man with power, like a president or senator.
  Kay:Do you know how naive you sound, Michael? President and Senators don't have men killed!
  Michael:Oh, who's being naive now, Kay? (from "The Godfather")
  
  
• Tom:Mr. Corleone never asks a second favor once he's refused the first, understood?
  
  
• Vito Corleone: I like to drink wine more than I used to.
  Michael:It's good for ya, pop.
  Vito Corleone:Anyway, I'm drinking more.
  
  
• Carol:You wanna dance?
  Melvin:I've been thinking about that since you brought it up before.
  Carol:(rising) And?
  Melvin:No!
  Melvin:I don't get this place. They make me buy an outfit but they let you wear a house dress. I don't get it.
  Carol:(gets up and ready to leave)
  Melvin:No. Wait... What... Why? I didn't mean it. You gotta sit down. You can still give me the dirty look. Just sit down and give it to me.
  Carol:Melvin, pay me a compliment. I need on and quick. You have no idea how much what you said just hurt my feelings.
  Melvin:The minute somebody gets that you need them they threaten to go away. Never fails.
  Carol:That's not compliment, Melvin. That's just trying to sound smart so I feel stupid. A compliment is something nice about somebody else. Now or never!
  ...
  Melvin:I have this --- what? Ailment... And my doctor --- a shrink who I used to see all the time... he says 50 or 60 percent of the time a pill can really help. I hate pills. Very dangerous things, pills. "Hate," I am using the word "hate" about pills. My compliment is that when you came to my house that time and told me how you'd never --- well, you were there, you know... The next morning I started taking these pills.
  Carol:I don't quite get how that's a compliment for me.
  Melvin:You make me want to be a better man. (from "As good as it gets")
  
  
• Carol: I'm sorry, Melvin -- but whatever this is --- is not going to work.
  Melvin:I'm feeling... I've been feeling better.
  Carol:Melvin, even though it may seem that way now --- you don't know me all that well... I'm not the answer for you.
  Melvin:Hey, I've got a great compliment for you.
  Carol:You know what? I...
  Melvin:Just let me talk.
  I'm the only on on the face of the earth who realizes that you're the greatest woman on earth. I'm the only one who appreciates how amazing you are in every single thing you do --- in every single thought you have ... in how you are with Spencer --- Spence ... in how you say what you mean and how you almost always mean something that's all about being straight and good ... I think most people miss that about you and I watch wondering how they can watch you bring them food and clear the dishes and never get that they have just met the greatest woman alive... And the fact that I get it makes me feel great... about me! You got a real good reason to walk out on that?
  Carol:No! It's certainly not. No -- I don't think so. No.
