One of my fave quotes (I have to limit myself because I have a million) is "Marriage is a concept invented by people who were lucky to make it to 20 without being eaten by dinosaurs. Marriage is obsolete." from St. Elmo's Fire
"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
"I won't spend my life as nothing," Sir Orick from A Knights Tale. (Heath Ledger)
I've spent my entire life fighting the voices (the memories from the past) in my head. Overcoming sexual abuse and alcoholism has been difficult and it took decades for me to realize the lies weren't true...and that I can be something.
Each time that old tape player from my past starts sounding off in my head again, I repeat this quote over and over and I become motivated to follow my dreams and see them a reality.

"Love Actually" - It is more than one quote, but I love the parts where the two people are stand ins for an adult movie and are talking about traffic and other mundane things while they are at "work". I think it is hilarious.
"What I want from each and every one of you is a hard-target search of every gas station, residence, warehouse, farmhouse, henhouse, outhouse and doghouse in that area." The Fugitive
I love to quote this when one of my children can't find something because it's "lost".
