MOVIE:
" Aye, fight and you may die, run, and you'll live... at least for a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take... OUR FREEDOM!" (Braveheart, of course)
BOOK:
Pretty much every single word of Denis' Johnson's "Jesus' Son" (NOT a "DaVinci Code" book, lol). Absolutely brilliant, highly recommended. Title is from the Lou Reed song "Heroin."
SONG:
"There are those that break and those that bend . . .
I'm the other kind." (Steve Earle, "The Other Kind")
ONE LINER:
"Life's tough. It's even tougher if you're stupid." (John f'n Wayne, "Sands of Iwo Jima")

"I'm your huckleberry." or "You're no daisy at all." Doc Holiday - Tombstone.
Also, pretty much every line that comes out of Johnny Depp's mouth as Hunter S. Thompson in Fear and Loathing.
"The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older. Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death." Time - Pink Floyd

My favorite verse from one of my favorite songs is somewhat long, but here it is:
I jumped in the river and what did I see?
Black-eyed angels swam with me
A moon full of stars and astral cars
All the things I used to see
All my lovers were there with me
All my past and futures
And we all went to heaven in a little row boat
There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt
Pyramid Song - Radiohead
I don't know why, but this song always makes me a little teary.

"I am nothing special; just a common man with common thoughts, and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten. But in one respect I have succeeded as gloriously as anyone who's ever lived: I've loved another with all my heart and soul; and to me, this has always been enough."
It's a line from 'The Notebook'. It's my absolute fave.

My Best Friend's Wedding ...George: It's amazing the clarity that comes with psychotic jealousy.
Or, from your favorite book?
The Great Gatsby: Can’t repeat the past?…Why of course you can!

Don't really have a favorite single line from a song..

"Frankly, my dear, I don't give a dam." Clark Gable: Gone With The Wind
That was, of course, before political correctness kicked in. And yes, when it comes to political correctness, frankly my dear I don't give a dam for it!

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
From my favorite book & movie - "Dune" by Frank Herbert.

The death scene in Cleopatra (Elizabeth Taylor) "How strangely awake I feel. As though life had been a dream. Someone else's dream, but now? Now begins a dream of myown."
