Gangs of New York  - Quotes

 Bill:
We hold in our hearts the memory of our fallen brothers whose blood stains the very streets we walk today. Also on this night we pay tribute to the leader of our enemies, an honorable man, who crossed over bravely, fighting for what he believed in. To defeat my enemy, I extinguish his life, and consume him as I consume these flames. In honor of Priest Vallon.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen  - Quotes

 Megatron:
My master, I failed you on Earth. The Allspark is destroyed and without it, our race will perish.
The Fallen:
You much have much to learn, my disciple. The Cube was merely a vessel. It's power, it's knowledge, can never be destroyed. It can only transform.
Megatron:
How is that possible?
The Fallen:
It has been absorbed by the human child. The key to saving our race now lies within his mind.
Megatron:
Well, then, let me strip the very flesh from his body!
The Fallen:
And you will, my apprentice, in time. For millennia, I have dreamed of my return to that wretched planet where I, too, was once betrayed by the Primes I called my brothers. Only a Prime can defeat me... and now, only one remains.
Megatron:
Optimus... he protects the boy.
The Fallen:
Then the boy will lead us too him, and revenge will be ours.
Megatron:
Yeesss...
Starscream:
The boy will not escape us! We have him in our sights!
Starscream:
[watching a hatchling die] Without the energon, the hatchlings will keep dying.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen  - Quotes

 Mikaela Banes:
Okay, so how do we stop him?
Jetfire:
Only a Prime can defeat The Fallen.
Sam Witwicky:
Optimus Prime? [Jetfire leans forward to look at Sam]
Jetfire:
So you've met a Prime? Why, you must have met a great descendant. Is he alive, here on this planet?

That was my mission! It's YOUR mission now! Go before the Decepticons find me and find you! [Sam, Mikaela, Leo, Simmons, Bumblebee and the Twins leave]

Scary Movie 4  - Quotes

 Narrator:
And so, love triumphed in the end and the invaders were destroyed. For this world, our world is the world of man. We have earned the right to live here and as long as we love, humanity will prevail. Each of our enemies has failed in their quest to defeat us. Each has been undone by their own nefarious plans. Among all worlds, across all galaxies, we stand above, we stand alone. None can threaten our existence, none can challenge our spirit. And why? Of all the qualities that make us unique, it is love that is our greatest strength. And because of love, mankind...

But what's to stop Dargis from getting rid of this cat too?
Winston:
McBunny's right. We must protect this cat at all costs. Our fates rely on it.

Andrew Davidson  - Quotes

 There's a gentle sigh which descends like billowing silk upon the soul that accepts its coming death. It's a gentle pocket of air in the turbulence of everyday life... the silk settles around you as if it has been drifting towards the earth forever and has finally found it's target. The flag of defeat has been mercifully dropped and, in this action, the loss is not so bad. Defeat itself is defeated by the embrace of defeat, and death is swallowed up in victory.
