    I love 'Aliens,' just for the sheer amount of quotes you can come away from it. A true Hollywood classic, lol.

    I do have another quote that I like, from another action movie tho..


    'Y'know what I think? Don't really matter what I think. Once that first bullet goes past your head, politics and all that shit just goes right out the window.'

    Sgt "Hoot," Black Hawk Down



    The quote makes me think about the sense of survival, that a soldier has to rely upon when engaged in battle. There is no sense of democrat or republican, rich or poor. Everyone becomes stripped down to their rawest of forms...the form which puts the need to live first, all other bullshit second.

    :eek:

    Col Jessep in A Few Good Men
    It's a long one, but my favourite quote. I know he was portrayed as the bad guy but this is the best quote for me and one I wish I could recall completely when I hear people come down with complainitis and refuse to do something about the situation.


    "Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Whose gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinburg?

    I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago, and you curse the marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives.

    You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall.

    We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline.

    I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to. "

    lol that's so true

    nice quote from Ed Parker too..

    that applies to so many areas, from martial arts to the sciences...

    many people fail to realize that individual creativity, is just as important as studying, or else there would never been any progression.
