Favorite Movie Quotes:

Godfather:
"Michael, this is business and you're taking it very, very personal. ISN'T THAT RIGHT, TOM?!?!"

Tombstone:
.... "Why Ike, whatever do you mean? Maybe poker's just not your game Ike. I know! Let's have a spelling contest!"
-- "I'm your Hucklberry." --" A fight for blood. That's just my game!"
--"Johnny Tyler, madcap! Where you goin with that shotgun?"
-- "I've got two guns, one for each of ya."

**"There is no such thing as a "normal life." There is just life, ya live it"**

-- "I'm an oak alright"
....beware of the pale (green) horse, for the Rider is Death, and Hell follows with him....
---- "You called down the thunder, well here I am!! See that, Ike? That says "Sheriff." Take a good look at it, Ike. You tell em I'm comin. And hell is coming with me Ike, Hell is coming with me!!"
-- "You gonna do something? Or just stand there and Bleed?"

Boiler Room:

Anyone says "money is the root of all evil," doesn't have any. Anyone says "money can't make you happy," well, look at me... Grin, from ear to ear, baby. And the best thing is,Gentlemen, I am liquid."

ABC, Always Be Closing....Stop laughing, it's not funny. If you can't close then start thinking about another career. I'm serious. I am dead serious about that. Anybody says call me tomorrow, that's bullspit! Anybody says they got money problems about two hundred shares, is lying. You know what I say to that? Tell me you don't like my idea. Tell me you don't like my firm. Tell me you don't like my frackin tie! But don't tell me you can't pull twenty five hundred together. You hear me, boys? There is no such thing as "a no sale call." A sale is made on every call you make. You either sell the client some stock, or he sells you a reason he can't. Either way, it's a sale. The question is, who's gonna close, you or him? Be relentless! Alright, I'm done."

Pushin Tin:

** "Uh, You Still there?!?!" **

Fr. J. Corapi

"If you constantly see the darkness in others, are always concerned about it, continously pointing it out in others; then you concern yourself with darkness too much. It occupies you. You then become enveloped in it, and become dark yourself. Intead, be the Light"
