Walk the Line  - Quotes

 Johnny Cash:
I want to marry you and I am telling you it's the time.
June Carter:
Well I'm telling you with 100 percent certainty that it is not the time. It's not about time, it's not the right time, it's not even quarter to the right time.

Fight Club  - Quotes

 Narrator:
Oh, yeah, Chloe... Chloe looked the way Meryl Streep's skeleton would look if you made it smile and walk around the party being extra nice to everybody.
Chloe:
Well, I'm still here. But I don't know for how long. That's as much certainty as anyone can give me. But I've got some good news: I no longer have any fear of death. But... I am in a pretty lonely place. No one will have sex with me. I'm so close to the end, and all I want is to get laid for the last time. I have pornographic movies in my apartment, and lubricants, and amyl nitrite... [the group leader takes the mic]
Group Leader:
Thank you, Chloe... everyone, let's thank Chloe.

Pathology  - Quotes

 Ted Grey:
How do you know I won't tell?
Jake Gallo:
Because there so happens to exist distinct physical evidence putting you at the crime scene at the time of death. I know because I placed it there. And I can prove with a mathematical certainty that you killed him, but that won't really matter if you're the boy I think you are.

Reversal of Fortune  - Quotes

 Alan Dershowitz:
We've got two big problems here. The case against him is very strong but more importantly is the absolute certainty that Claus is guilty, finding grounds for reversal won't be enough here. Judges on the Rhode Island Supreme Court will have to go home to their wives and explain to them why they reversed. To do that we have to totally obliterate the States case so that they have no other reason to affirm. Total victory or we are dead in the water. Now, I assumed you've all had a chance to go over the transcripts and materials, first impressions? [Minnie raises her hand]
Alan Dershowitz:
Yeah, Minnie.
Minnie:
I think this whole case stinks! I think Von Bulow stinks! He's obviously guilty of something pretty despicable and if we free him we become his accessories, accomplices after the fact. I'm really shocked with your reputation for defending the poor and oppressed that you've taken this case. [Stands up]
Minnie:
I won't have anything to do with it, and I hope my fellow students won't either.
Alan Dershowitz:
Can I exercise my first ammendment right to free speech? If lawyers only defended innocent clients there would only be 12 defense attorneys and none of you would be able to find a job.
Minnie:
Why help guilty people get off?
Alan Dershowitz:
Oh you're sure he's guilty, 100% sure?
Minnie:
He had a lawyer. He had a trial. He was convicted.
Alan Dershowitz:
Are you sure he had a fair trial?
Minnie:
Come on!
Alan Dershowitz:
It's the basis of the whole legal system! Everyone gets a defense. So the system is there for the innocent person falsely accused. Ok, say it's you Ok? [referring to Minnie]
Alan Dershowitz:
You decide you're gonna get a divorce, you're gonna divorce your husband. A week later you're accused of child abuse. [Minnie smiles in disbelief]
Alan Dershowitz:
Oh, no don't give me that people do it all the time. Suddenly you're alone it's a disaster. Everyone thinks that you are guilty. Even the mailman is looking at you a little funny. There's only one person who can help you. There's only one person who you can trust, your lawyer.
Minnie:
Yeah, ok, so someone has to defend Claus. But why you, why us?
Alan Dershowitz:
Look, you're my student, you, you have a choice. You don't have to do anything you don't want to do; that is your choice. The reason I take cases and here unlike most other lawyers, who are not professors and therefore have to make a living: I take cases because I get pissed off, and I am pissed off here. The family hired a private prosecutor: unacceptable! They conducted a private search! Now if we let them get away with that, rich people won't go to the cops any more. You know what they're going to do? They're going to get their own lawyers to collect evidence, and then they are going to choose which evidence they feel like passing on to the DA. And the next victim isn't going to be rich, like Von Bülow but it's going to be some poor schnook in Detroit who can't afford, or who can't find, a decent lawyer. I think it's a little more complicated than your simple moral superiority, hmm?
 

Primer  - Quotes

 Aaron:
[voiceover on the phone continued from the beginning] I can tell you with certainty what I did that night, when it was my turn, but I think it would do little good. Because what the world remembers, the actuality, the last revision, is what counts, apparently. So, how many times did it take Aaron, as he cycled through the same conversations, lip-synching trivia over and over? How many times would it take, before he got it right? Three? Four? Twenty? I've decided to believe that only one more would have done it. I can almost sleep at night, if there's only one more. Slowly and methodically, he reverse-engineered a perfect moment. He took from his surroundings what was needed, and made of it something more. And once the details had been successfully navigated, there was nothing more. Maybe the last minute moral debate... until the noise of the room escalates into panic and background screams, as the gunman walks in.

 Gimli:

A Good Year  - Quotes

 Fanny Chenal:
Do you know why I spent the night with you? So that now you have done what you came here to do, you will not return. For us there can be no future. There is certainty in that.
 

The Invisible Man  - Quotes

 Robert Hobbes:
I have met three presidents. I have captured terrorists. I deserve to die in action, Eberts, not just to be filed away!
Albert Eberts:
What you regard as inconsequential dental forms are in fact more, much more.
Robert Hobbes:
Oh God.
Albert Eberts:
They are in fact symbols, symbols of America. When all the world will little note, nor longer remember what we have done today in these hallowed halls, I tell you this with no degree of uncertainty that forms filed in triplicate are the very foundation of democracy. Why do we file, Robert, why? One word... Freedom.
 

V for Vendetta  - Quotes

 V:
There's no certainty - only opportunity.

Wild Bill  - Quotes

 Charley Price:
He had found the band of jackals he needed. But as Jack McCall rode through the center of town, he experienced the terrifying certainty that a man faces when he's about to make his own name famous. He lacked both a hero's calm and a coward's resolve to survive at any price.
