It's more like a speech...It's from Morgan Freeman as Joe Clark in "Lean On Me".
" Alright people, here we are. In one hour, you are going to take an exam administered by the State to test your basic skills and the quality of education at East Side High. I want to tell you what the people are saying about you and what they think about your chances. They say you're inferior! You are just a bunch of ******* and spics and poor white trash! Education is wasted on you! You cannot learn! You're lost! I mean ALL of you! I want all the white students to stand up. All my white students, stand up. Stand up. C'mon, stand up. These are my white children and they're the same as all of you! They've got no place to go, if they had, they'd have abandoned us a long time ago like everybody else did. So, here they are in East Side High, just like the rest of us. You can sit down. Are you getting my point, people? Is it beginning to sink in? We sink, we swim, we rise, we fall, we meet our fate together! Now, it took the help of a good, good friend to make me know and understand that and I do understand that and I'm grateful. I'm eternally grateful. And now, I've got a message for those people out there who've abandoned you and written you off! Can you hear me? Can you hear me? Good! You are NOT inferior! Your grades may be, your school may have been. But you can turn that around and make liars out of those bastards in exactly one hour when you take that test and pass it and win! So here's what I want you to do. When you find your thoughts wandering, I want you to knuckle back down and concentrate. Concentrate! Remember what's at stake and show them what East Side High's all about: a spirit that will not die!"
This is a very inspiring quote to me; when I feel like I can't do something I think of this and then I do my best.

"It was strange the way it happened. Suddenly... you get a break! All of the pieces seem to fit into place. What a sucker you've been, what a fool. The answer was there all the time. It took a small aciddent to make it happen. AN ACCIDENT! And that is how I discovered the secret. That elusive ingredient, that... spark that is the breath of life... yes I have that knowledge! I hold the key to life... ITSELF!"
Because it's from RHPS and reminds me of the 'audience participation' lines.

Wuthering Heights (1939) starring Sir Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon
Heathcliff to Cathy -
" If he loved you with all the power of his soul for whole lifetime, he couldn't love you as much as I do in a single day".
It's an amazingly romantic and deeply compelling thing to say to another man's wife. You must see this movie!

"This job would be great if it wasn't for the f*cking customers." - Clerks.
Anyone who's ever worked in the service sector knows why it's the greatest movie quote of all time.

From All About Eve (1950)
Margo Channing (Bette Davis)
"Fasten your seat belts. It's going to be a bumpy night."
Why? Because she is so good at being a biotch.

Well, not a movie, but off Scrubs:
Kelso [on phone to wife]:
Yes I hear Baxter growling Enid, but you've got to realise that you ventures over to his side of the house... what to do? ... Ok, here's what ya do... ... ... MAKE A SUDDEN MOVE!" *We hear dog bark loudly and a woman screaming*
Absolutely classic!
Well done to whoever did the Friends comment too :-)

"There's truth but no logic." Although this can be used to justify religion, which is the only time I don't like it.
"I felt like my whole life was just an endless parade of parties and cotillions, yachts and polo matches. Always the same narrow people, the same mindless chatter. I felt like I was standing at a great precipice, with no one to hold me back, no one who cared, or even noticed."
