Arrival (2016) as Dr. Louise Banks

View Quote I used to think this was the beginning of your story. Memory is a strange thing. It does not work like I thought it did. We are so bound by time. By its order...But now I'm not so sure I believe in beginnings and endings. There are days that define your story beyond your life. Like the day they arrived.
View Quote So, Hannah...This is where your story begins. The day they departed...Despite knowing the journey...and where it leads...I embrace it. And I welcome every moment of it.
View Quote Language is the foundation of civilization. It is the glue that holds a people together. It is the first weapon drawn in a conflict.

Little Brown Dog: He's Riff Raff.
Riff Raff: I mark this territory.
Little Brown Dog: Yeah, he marked it.
Shoeshine: Look, I don't want any trouble.

Riff Raff: Get him!
Shoeshine: Oh my gosh, they're made of dog! Are you people crazy?!
Jack: Shoeshine, come here. It's not real dog.

Simon Barsnister: Why make one when I could create a plethora?
Cad: That's a "P" word. I have it.
Simon Barsinister: Just pick it up, you ape.
Riff Raff: Hey, Speed Bump, you survived. Let me guess: you went to satellite instead of cable. (laughs)
Sweet Polly PureBred: Put a muzzle on it.
Riff Raff: What's the matter, runt? You let your girlfirend do the talking for you? Maybe you can't hear me. (barks at Shoeshine; to Sweet Polly PureBred) If you ever want to be with a real dog, give me a sniff.
Simon Barsinister: You slack-jawed, mouth-breathing imbecile! I should have put strychnine in your chocolate milk months ago. Give me one good reason why I shouldn't dispose of you right now!
Cad: I found this.
(Cad shows Underdog's collar)

Her (2013) as Amy

View Quote You know what, I can over-think everything and find a million ways to doubt myself. And since Charles left I've been really thinking about that part of myself and, I've just come to realize that, we're only here briefly. And while I'm here, I wanna allow myself joy. So **** it.

Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006) as Susan

View Quote Susan: How does one get thrown out of an Applebee's?
Ricky: You're about to find out.
View Quote Susan: Hi, I'm his lady, I'm Susan. I painted the car, I...we had sex.
Reese: You did?
Susan & Ricky: Yeah.
Reese: Well, I wish I coulda been there for that.
View Quote Susan: [telling Ricky why he should get back into racing] It's because it's what you love to do. It's who you were born to be. And here you sit--thinking! Well, Ricky Bobby is not a thinker. Ricky Bobby is a driver. He is a doer, and that's what you need to do. You don't need to think. You need to drive. You need speed. You need to go out there, and you need to rev your engine. You need to fire it up. You need to grab ahold of that line between speed and chaos, and you need to wrestle it to the ground like a demon cobra. And then, when the fear rises up in your belly, you use it. And you know that fear is powerful, because it has been there for billions of years! And it is good! And you use it! And you ride it; you ride it like a skeleton horse through the gates of hell, and then you win, Ricky! You WIN! And you don't win for anybody else. You win for you, you know why? Because a man takes what he wants. He takes it all. And you're a man, aren't you? Aren't you?!
Ricky: Susan, I've never heard you talk like that... Are we about to get it on? Because I'm as hard as a diamond in an ice storm right now.

The Master (2012) as Peggy Dodd

View Quote This is something you do for a billion years or not at all. This isn't fashion.
View Quote And this is where we are at. At the lowest level. To have to explain ourselves, for what? For what we do, we have to grovel? The only way to defend ourselves is to attack. If we don't do that we will lose every battle that we are engaged in. We will never dominate our environment the way we should unless we attack! And the city, city's just noise. I know the city. I know its rotten secrets, its filthy lies and secrets. They... invited us here and welcomed us. Only to throw us down. And kick us out. It's a grim joke.
