Best Life of Brian lines
Jim Vieira
existed 100 times over and been beaten into the ground ;) But I
couldn't help notice all the great 'Holy Grail best lines' threads.
I'm one of the (minority) MP fans who things that Life of Brian is
a better movie, so I wanted to start a thread with the funniest
Life of Brian lines.
My personal favorite is:
"Wolf's nipple chips, get em while they're hot, they're lovely"
but some OTHER great ones:
"I know where to give it, if you want it" (old dirty jailer
speaking to Palin's guard character)
"Stwike him centuwian, vewy wuffly"
"and throw him to the floor again sir?"
"oh yes, thwow him to the floor"
"I have a vewy gweat fwiend in wome named Bigus Dickus"
"We will be traveling thru the sewers, so don't wear your
best sandals" (paraphrased)
"I'm not a Roman mom! I'm a kike, a yid, a heebie. I'm hook-
nosed mum! I'm a red sea pedestrian and proud of it" (ya,
I probably screwed that one all up ;)
"Now how you doing then officer?" (Brians Mom a few secs later
kneeling in front of a Roman officer)
"Blessed are the cheesmakers?"
"I believe he was refering to the makers of all dairy products"
"I hadn't said a word for 18 years till he came along"
"A MIRACLE! A MIRACLE!"
"But he hurt my foot"
"HURT MY FOOT LORD! HURT MY FOOT!"
"Don't ya wanna haggle?"
"It's for the wife" (Brian explaining why he was buying a
beard)
"Making it worse? How could it be worse? Jehova, Jehova!"
"right who threw that stone?"
"She did, she did, she did (voices lower) he did, he did"
"(high voice) I'm sorry I (lower voice) thought we started"
"go to the back!"
"Nice shot" (after the big rock flattens the leader at the
stoning)
"I think I'm going to have a cardiac arrest"
"Where is the fetus going to gestate? You going to keep it in
a box?"
"Apart from the roads, irragation, education, (etc) what have
the Romans ever done from us?" (sorry, don't remember them
all)
"What I wouldn't give to be spat at in the face"
That about all I can think of for the moment, anyone?

LoB just can't compete with Holy Grail.
BUT, having said that, I think you, despite
your long post, did ignore at least one line
I can think of:
He wanks as high as any in wome!
oh yeah, and:
Eighteen! --By the guy still trying to barter for Brian's gourd
after Brian dissapears.
Just a couple...

>conversation at the Sermon on the Mount...the "blessed are the cheesemakers"
The post-cheesemaker comment is actually funnier when correct. He says:
"It's obviously a parable meaning blessed are all producers of dairy products."
Parable's the funniest part, in my oho-so-humble...

: Jim, I can't contribute any lines that you haven't already said (it's been
: too long since I've seen the movie, I guess!), but I agree that this is the
: best of the MP movies. I hope you get more lines posted. (I like the whole
: conversation at the Sermon on the Mount...the "blessed are the cheesemakers"
: and "Stop calling me Big Nose!" stuff.)
Or:
"Beard, madam ?"/"Oh, I haven't got time to go to those stonings!"
"Welease Wodger!"/"Who is Wodger ?"
"He's a wobber!"/"And a wapist!"
"He sounds like a notorious cwiminal!"
And all of the "Biggus Dickus" scenes ... Still prefer the Holy Grail
though (just).

From that same scene:

and also . . .
"Romanes eunt domus? People called 'Romanes' they go the house?"
Having taken six years of Latin, that scene had me in stiches.

Some of my favorite lines that haven't already been mentioned
are
Welease Woger! - My name's Woger and so's my wife!
And Brians' mother standing on their balcony being asked by a

"Mum, I thought you were raped!"
"Well, at first..." (paraphrased; reminiscent of Ethel the Frog,
one of my all time faves: "He nailed your head to the floor?!" "At
first, yeah."
The disclaimer at the end read by the leader (Cleese) of the
People's front of Judea (or was it the People's popular Front?) to
Brian concerning his martyrdom "... transvestives, women, men, and
hermaphrodites". (paraphrased, of course).
I see LOB as the better movie to Holy Grail, and equal in greatness to
Meaning of Life ("Every sperm is sacred/every sperm is great/ if a
sperm is wasted/ God gets quite irate.)

Presonally for me the line(s) that do it from Brian are :
Wise Man : We were led by a star.
Brians Mom : Led by a bottle more like ! Your drunk ! It's disgusting!
Brians Mom : What is myrh anyway ?
Wise Man : It is a precious balm.
BM : A BALM !!!! WHAT YOU GO GIVING HIM A BALM FOR ?!?! QUICK THROW IT

And of course
Pilate (to crowd) : Who is this woger whom you would have me welease ?
1st man : Hes a wobber !!
2nd man : And a wapist !!
Woman : And a pick-pocket !
Crowd -- nah !! shh !!!

I've always liked this one;
Brian: "I'm not the Messiah. Will you please listen. I am not the
Messiah. Do you understand? Honestly."
Judith(?): "Only the true Messiah denies his divinity."
Brian: "What? Well what sort of chance does that give me? All right I
am the Messiah."
(Crowd) "He is...He is the Messiah!"
Brian: "Now...fuck off!"

I'm quoting from my memory:
- Crucifiction?
- No, I'm free
- Oh, then take the first turn on the right
- No... I was only pulling your leg. It is crucifiction
- OK then. Go to the left, one cross each.

>Welease Woger! - My name's Woger and so's my wife!
Wewease Wogah is from the balcony, whilst when they come
to release Brian, the Jew, who of course objects to the Samaritan
(leading to another great line "All those who want to move raise your
hands.") says "I'm Brian, and so's my wife!"
(I may not be dead on, but I'm closer)
>And Bigus Dicus has a wife you know. Her name is Incontinentia.
>Incontinentia Butucs.
Just a couple spelling errors on Biggus Dickus and Incontinentia Buttocks.
And another great one is the vague preacher:
"There shall be some people, and they shall have some things..."

For your information, the original LOB screenplay is in the Harvard
Theatre Colection Library. It's marked with comments from the cast and
quite different in many areas from what you see in the final cut.
Also, check "Film Review Digest, 1979-1980." Or is it "Flims in Review?"
I forget which. Anyway, it would inlcude every major American Review of
the Film. I've read them all. Very interesting stuff.

Also interesting is the American Review of Film Reviews, which
examines the major film reviews of the half-decade for content,
clarity and the number of times the reviewer went to the potty while
reviewing the review. The original Review of all Reviews of Film
Reviews is in the National Review Museum, and has various drawings of
stick figures representing the major action which took place to bring
the original review to print.

Alright... alright... but apart from better sanitation and medicine and
education and irrigation and public health and roads and a freshwater
system and baths and public order... what have the Romans done for us...?
brought peace!
What!? Oh peace, yes... shut up!

Nah... For a long one, I'd say it was;
"What Jesus blatantly fails to appreciate is that it's the meek that are
the problem..."
But who could possibly ever go though life after seeing that movie without
occasionally saying;
"You lucky bastard.... You lucky, lucky bastard!"

I like the invented idioms myself, such as "Like a rat out of an aqueduct"
and "Up and down like the Assyrian Empire." Introduced a real sense of
verisimilitude into the movie, whatever that means.
But then, nothing can compare with "We are all individuals [I'm not!]."
. . . Unless it might be "He's been taken up!" "No, he's over there!"

The Best Line is:-

Although I personally consider it folly to attempt a judgement of a single
line or snippet as superior to all other contenders, I remain shocked and
dismayed that in the long and often glorious history of this thread, no
one has yet cited:

the morning? That doesn't sound very wise to me!"

Having read latin, this one takes my prize.
-What is this? 'People called "Romanes", they go the house...'
The scene in question is absolutely magnificent.

I know I'm jumping in late here, but, in case it has not yet been
mentioned, this line kills me every time:
"Crucifixion?"
[several positive replies]
"Crucifixion?"
"Nah. Freedom!"
"Ok, off you go . . ." [or something like that]
Reminds me of the drill sergeant scene in The Meaning of Life.
