There are so many classic movie quotes and scenes and I was reminded of
a good one by something posted in another thread. A classic Alec
Baldwin quote/scene from "Malice".

When asked under oath if he has a god complex:

"I have an M.D. from Harvard, I am board certified in cardio-thoracic
medicine and trauma surgery, I have been awarded citations from seven
different medical boards in New England, and I am never, ever sick at
sea. So I ask you; when someone goes into that chapel and they fall on
their knees and they pray to God that their wife doesn't miscarry or
that their daughter doesn't bleed to death or that their mother doesn't
suffer acute neural trama from postoperative shock, who do you think
they're praying to? Now, go ahead and read your Bible, _Dennis_, and
you go to your church, and, with any luck, you might win the annual
raffle, but if you're looking for God, he was in operating room number
two on November 17, and he doesn't like to be second guessed. You ask
me if I have a God complex. Let me tell you something: I am God."

My favorite quote:

"I dropped out of school in Wisconsin. I have 9 WSOP bracelets, I am the
national heads up champion and I am never, ever sick after 3 beers. So I ask
you; when someone looks at their hole cards and says a silent prayer to God
before they push all their chips into the pot, who do you think they're
praying to? Now, go ahead and read your Bible, _Doyle_, and you go to your
church, and, with any luck, you might win a few sit and gos online, but if
you're looking for God, he was at the final table, and he doesn't like to be
bluffed. You ask me if I have a God complex. Let me tell you something: I am
God."

Having now read a Phil Hellmuth parody of Alec Baldwin's "God" speech
in Malice, I can die a happy man.

Bah, that isn't even the best quote Bladwins had:


Blake: You got leads. Mitch & Murray paid good money. Get their names to
sell them. You can't close the leads you're given, you can't close shit,
*you are* shit, hit the bricks pal, and beat it, 'cause you are going
*out*.
Shelley Levene: The leads are weak.
Blake: "The leads are weak." The fucking leads are weak? You're weak. I've
been in this business fifteen years...
Dave Moss: What's your name?
Blake: Fuck you. That's my name.
[Moss laughs]
Blake: You know why, mister? 'Cause you drove a Hyundai to get here
tonight, I drove an eighty thousand dollar BMW. *That's* my name.


OR


Blake: We're adding a little something to this month's sales contest. As
you all know, first prize is a Cadillac Eldorado. Anybody want to see
second prize?
[Holds up prize]
Blake: Second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is you're fired.

Memorable Quotes from
Groundhog Day (1993)

Phil: What would you do if you were stuck in one place and every day was
exactly the same, and nothing that you did mattered?
Ralph: That about sums it up for me.

Neither are those fucko:

Leonardo Leonardo:  For far too long, the Quik Stop has been a home for rampant
overcharging and poorly educated, rude clerks...

Dante:  You don't suppose he's talking about us?

Randal:  Naw.

Leonardo Leonardo:  With names like Dante and Handal...

Randal:  It's RANDAL!


Or:

Old Man Dunphy:  What are you two knuckleheads up to?

Tim:  Going out.

Old Man Dunphy:  What you gonna do?

Tim:  Hang around.

Old Man Dunphy:  When you gonna come back?

Tim:  Later.

Old Man Dunphy:  Now, was that so hard?
