kaaatieIt seems like ages since I’ve updated. I haven’t been on my computer much at all for the last week or so. I had a course for work on Monday and Tuesday, and I've felt terrible since before the weekend, so I really haven’t had a chance to LJ much for a while... so if you’ve written something interesting, and I haven’t replied, chances are I haven’t seen it yet --- it’s not due to a lack of love! Anyway, last night I realised that it was hayfever that was making me fell crappy - I got some drugs for that, and now I feel great! So, onto a meme!
Nabbed fromsg1padawan: A movie quote meme
1. Pick 25 of your favourite movies.
2. Then pick one of your favourite quotes from each movie.
3. Post the quotes in your journal.
4. Have those on your friends list guess what the movie is. NO GOOGLING!
5. Either strike out the quote once it has been correctly identified, or place the guesser's user name directly after the quote.
1. “Does Barry Manilow know that you raid his wardrobe?” The Breakfast Club - guessed by ria_kukalaka
2. “I'll explain and I'll use small words so that you'll be sure to understand, you warthog faced buffoon.” The Princess Bride - guessed by tipsywitch
3. “I find I'm so excited, I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it's the excitement only a free man can feel, a free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend, and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope.” The Shawshank Redemption - guessed by natacup82
4. “It was one of those days when it's a minute away from snowing and there's this electricity in the air, you can almost hear it. And this bag was, like, dancing with me. Like a little kid begging me to play with it. For fifteen minutes. And that's the day I knew there was this entire life behind things, and... this incredibly benevolent force, that wanted me to know there was no reason to be afraid, ever. Video's a poor excuse, I know. But it helps me remember... and I need to remember... Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world I feel like I can't take it, like my heart's going to cave in.” American Beauty - guessed by dar_jeeling
5. “Wait a minute... nice boys don't kiss like that”

6. “A revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having!” V for Vendetta - guessed by ria_kukalaka
7. “If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them. Buildings burn, people die, but real love is forever.” The Crow - guessed by foreverseenstar

10. “Multipass!” The Fifth Element - guessed by sg1padawan

12. “See you Monday. We'll be talking about Freud and why he did enough cocaine to kill a small horse.” Good Will Hunting - guessed by ruinsofmysanity
13. “What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?” High Fidelity - guessed by strangefrontier

22. “We can't be dead. We have cable” Nothing - guessed by ria_kukalaka
23. “I wasn't like every other kid, you know, who dreams about being an astronaut, I was always more interested in what bark was made out of on a tree. Richard Gere's a real hero of mine. Sting. Sting would be another person who's a hero. The music he's created over the years, I don't really listen to it, but the fact that he's making it, I respect that. I care desperately about what I do. Do I know what product I'm selling? No. Do I know what I'm doing today? No. But I'm here, and I'm gonna give it my best shot.” Zoolander - guessed by strangefrontier
