The Princess Diaries  - Quotes

 Eduard Christoff Philippe GÈrard Renaldi, Prince of Genovia:
Courage is not the absence of fear but rather the judgment that something is more important than fear. The brave may not live forever but the cautious do not live at all.
 



Wicked Game  - Quotes

 Guile:
You tossed the diamonds? How could you have thrown the wrong box?
Billy Ray:
I dropped them, Guile. Couldn't tell which was which.
Guile:
You tossed the diamonds. All that surveillance, all those weeks of planning for a box of ROCKS AND DIRTY SOCKS!

Get off my back, already! It was an honest mistake.

Honest? HONEST? Here's a news flash for you: WE ARE CROOKS!

It was a freaking judgment call! I screwed up, let's leave it at that! It's not as if you made your share of mistakes!
Guile:
All right, all right, Fine. I was just thinking of all those beautiful diamonds that YOU THREW AWAY!

Look at the bright side...

Oh? Oh, you mean there's a bright side?
Billy Ray:
There's always tomorrow...
Guile:

Andrew Solomon  - Quotes

 You are constantly told in depression that your judgment is compromised, but a part of depression is that it touches cognition. That you are having a breakdown does not mean that your life isn't a mess. If there are issues you have successfully skirted or avoided for years, they come cropping back up and stare you full in the face, and one aspect of depression is a deep knowledge that the comforting doctors who assure you that your judgment is bad are wrong. You are in touch with the real terribleness of your life. You can accept rationally that later, after the medication sets in, you will be better able to deal with the terribleness, but you will not be free of it. When you are depressed, the past and future are absorbed entirely by the present moment, as in the world of a three-year-old. You cannot remember a time when you felt better, at least not clearly; and you certainly cannot imagine a future time when you will feel better.

Marcus Aurelius  - Quotes

 A man should always have these two rules in readiness. First, to do only what the reason of your ruling and legislating faculties suggest for the service of man. Second, to change your opinion whenever anyone at hand sets you right and unsettles you in an opinion, but this change of opinion should come only because you are persuaded that something is just or to the public advantage, not because it appears pleasant or increases your reputation.

Primer  - Quotes

 
[first lines]
Aaron:
[Sound of a phone ringing. Aaron, voiceover:] Here's what's going to happen. I'm gonna read this, and you're gonna listen, and you're gonna stay on the line. And you're not gonna interrupt, and you're not gonna speak for any reason. Some of this you know. I'm gonna start at the top of the page. [pause]
Aaron:
Meticulous, yes. Methodical, educated; they were these things. Nothing extreme. Like anyone, they varied. There were days of mistakes and laziness and in-fighting, and there were days, good days, when by anyone's judgment they would have to be considered clever. No one would say that what they were doing was complicated. It wouldn't even be considered new, except for maybe in the geological sense. They took from their surroundings what was needed and made of it something more.

Terminator 2: Judgment Day  - Quotes

 
[first lines]
Sarah Connor:
[narrating] 3 billion human lives ended on August 29th, 1997. The survivors of the nuclear fire called the war Judgment Day. They lived only to face a new nightmare: the war against the machines. The computer which controlled the machines, Skynet, sent two Terminators back through time. Their mission: to destroy the leader of the human resistance, John Connor, my son. The first Terminator was programmed to strike at me in the year 1984, before John was born. It failed. The second was set to strike at John himself when he was still a child. As before, the resistance was able to send a lone warrior, a protector for John. It was just a question of which one of them would reach him first.
