Make Really Good Love Again

"I believe that love that is true and real, creates a respite from death. All cowardice comes from not loving or not loving well, which is the same thing. And then the man who is brave and true looks death squarely in the face, like some rhino-hunters I know or Belmonte, who is truly brave... It is because they make love with sufficient passion, to push death out of their minds... until it returns, as it does, to all men... and then you must make really good love again."

Ernest Hemingway (Corey Stoll) - Midnight in Paris

The Artist's Job

"We all fear death and question our place in the universe. The artist's job is not to succumb to despair, but to find an antidote for the emptiness of existence."

Gertrude Stein (Kathy Bates) - Midnight in Paris

Right Before His Eyes

"Hemingway did have one plot suggestion - he doesn't quite believe that the protagonist doesn't see that his fiancée is having an affair right before his eyes."

Gertrude Stein (Kathy Holmes) - Midnight in Paris

Circling Back

"Fate has a way of circling back on a man, and taking him by surprise."

Edward Bloom (Ewan McGregor) - Big Fish

Once an Idea Has Taken Hold of the Brain

"What is the most resilient parasite? Bacteria? A virus? An intestinal worm? An idea. Resilient... highly contagious. Once an idea has taken hold of the brain it's almost impossible to eradicate. An idea that is fully formed - fully understood - that sticks; right in there somewhere."

Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) - Inception

Better Class

"This town deserves a better class of criminal. And I'm gonna give it to them."

Joker (Heath Ledger) - The Dark Knight

All You Want

- I'm going to name if Vesper.

- Because of the bitter aftertaste?

- No. Because once you taste it, that's all you want to drink.
