Transformers  - Quotes

 
[first lines]
Optimus Prime:
Before time began, there was the Cube. We know not where it comes from, only that it holds the power to create worlds and fill them with life. That is how our race was born. For a time, we lived in harmony. But like all great power, some wanted it for good, others for evil. And so began the war. A war that ravaged our planet until it was consumed by death, and the Cube was lost to the far reaches of space. We scattered across the galaxy, hoping to find it and rebuild our home. Searching every star, every world. And just when all hope seemed lost, message of a new discovery drew us to an unknown planet called... Earth. [the All Spark falls to Earth]
Optimus Prime:
But we were already too late...

Psst. Do I look like I wanna be on the Discovery Channel?
Anthony:
No.

Then get the fuck outta my shop.

My Cousin Vinny  - Quotes

 Vinny Gambini:
I object to this witness being called at this time. We've been given no prior notice he would testify. No discovery of any tests he's conducted or reports he's prepared. And as the court is aware, the defense is entitled to advance notice of all witness who will testify, particularly those who will give scientific evidence, so that we can properly prepare for cross-examination, as well as give the defense an opportunity to have his reports reviewed by a defense expert, who might then be in a position to contradict the veracity of his conclusions.
Judge Chamberlain Haller:
Mr. Gambini?
Vinny Gambini:
Yes, sir?
Judge Chamberlain Haller:
That is a lucid, intelligent, well thought-out objection.
Vinny Gambini:
Thank you, sir.
Judge Chamberlain Haller:
Overruled.

Rebecca Solnit  - Quotes

 Building a museum case and filling it with types of mussels is one way of knowing mussels; but on the shore, a mussel leads to a crab or a curious stone, which leads to another thing and eventually leads back to mussels, which is another and perhaps a more far-reaching way to know mussels. The sea that always seems like a metaphor, but one that is always moving, cannot be fixed, like a heart that is a like a tongue that is like a mystery that is like a story that is like a border that is like something altogether different and like everything at once. One thing leads to another, and this is the treasure that always runs through your fingers and never runs out.
