Not only is The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers the middle film of the trilogy, it’s the escalation one. The battles get bigger. The stakes get heavier. And the characters we thought we knew begin to change in ways that knock us upside the head. Helm’s Deep, Treebeard, Gollum’s second personhood — in addition to one of the most impactful monologues in fantasy film to date — The Two Towers Released in 2002 and directed by Peter Jackson, The Two Towers provided all of these.

Oh and yeah it yielded lines too. Big ones. Emotional ones. Lines that endured for two decades and counting. These Two Towers quotes are epic precisely because they capture the myth and the meaning in the words.

Below are some of the best quotes from The Two Towers —straight out of Middle-earth and into your heart.

1. Samwise Gamgee: “There’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.”
2. Gollum: “We wants it, we needs it. Must have the precious.”
3. Aragorn: “A day may come when the courage of men fails… but it is not this day.”
4. Gandalf the White: “The battle for Helm’s Deep is over. The battle for Middle-earth is about to begin.”
5. Frodo: “I can’t do this, Sam.”
6. Sam: “I know. It’s all wrong. By rights we shouldn’t even be here. But we are.”
7. Gollum: “Leave now, and never come back!”
8. Gimli: “Toss me. But don’t tell the elf.”
9. Théoden: “So much death. What can men do against such reckless hate?”
10. Aragorn: “Ride out with me. Ride out and meet them.”
11. Gimli: “What’s happening out there?”
    Legolas: “Shall I describe it to you? Or would you like me to find you a box?”
12. Treebeard: “There is no curse in Elvish, Entish, or the tongues of men for this treachery.”
13. Éowyn: “The women of this country learned long ago: those without swords can still die upon them.”
14. Faramir: “I think at last we understand one another, Frodo Baggins.”
15. Sam: “Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it’ll shine out the clearer.”

The Two Towers finds that rare sweet spot in cinema — where war meets poetry, and valor can be found in the most unlikely places. These Lord of the Rings quotes are far more than just dramatic. They’re deeply human. Be it Sam’s raw hope or Gollum’s broken madness, these moments are the reason why this trilogy became a legend.

Searching for Gollum quotes, Samwise speeches, or perhaps the most beautiful Middle-earth lines ever written? This list covers it all.

There are movies that you remember because they’re funny. Others because they’re angry. Forrest Gump does all those things, and though somehow he makes it all seem so easy. Directed by Robert Zemeckis, the 1994 film takes audiences through the life of a kind, simple man that unknowingly changes history by taking life as it comes to him.

What made Forrest Gump memorable wasn’t just Tom Hanks’ spot-on performance or the amazing soundtrack — it was the quotes. These Forrest Gump quotes will hit you in the gut or make you smile like a madman! They’re simple, yes — but never empty.

Below are some of the best lines from Forrest Gump, the movie that taught us that life is really like a box of chocolates.

1. Forrest: “My mama always said, ‘Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.’”
2. Forrest: “Stupid is as stupid does.”
3. Jenny: “Run, Forrest, run!”
4. Forrest: “I may not be a smart man, but I know what love is.”
5. Forrest: “Mama always said, ‘You’ve got to put the past behind you before you can move on.’”
6. Forrest: “That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run.”
7. Forrest: “Lieutenant Dan got me invested in some kind of fruit company. So then I got a call from him saying we don’t have to worry about money no more. And I said, that’s good. One less thing.”
8. Forrest: “Me and Jenny goes together like peas and carrots.”
9. Forrest: “Mama always said, dying was a part of life. I sure wish it wasn’t.”
10. Lieutenant Dan: “They gave you the Congressional Medal of Honor.”
11. Forrest: “I’m not a smart man… but I’d know if I was.”
12. Forrest: “Sometimes, I guess there just aren’t enough rocks.”
13. Forrest: “And just like that… she was gone.”
14. Forrest: “I don’t know if we each have a destiny, or if we’re all just floatin’ around accidental-like on a breeze.”
15. Forrest: “That’s all I have to say about that.”

Forrest Gump is not brash or flashy. It just talks from the heart — and that’s why these lines connect so hard. These Forrest Gump quotes appear in speeches, cross stitch designs, on T-shirts and in quiet moments of reflection. Because, sometimes, the most modest words are the ones that we remember for ever.

Whether you need a little inspiration from “Forrest Gump” or you’re just in the mood to revisit a classic, these lines should do the trick, leaving you feeling ready to take on the world no matter who you are or what your heart is searching for.

You don’t watch The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. You feel it. The dust. The squint. The standoffs. Sergio Leone’s 1966 masterpiece is not just one of the greatest Westerns in the history of cinema; it’s also one of the coolest movies ever made. And the dialogue? Lean, mean, and memorable.

One of my favorite films, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly can be a bit reclamatory (I.e. “For a few dollars more, you can count them”), courtesy of Clint Eastwood starring in the role of the Good, Lee Van Cleef as the Bad and Eli Wallach as arguably the Ugly (never tell that man he’s ugly, or at all). Every line in this movie feels chiseled from the desert and slicked with gunpowder. These The Good, the Bad and the Ugly quotes, are no-nonsense, iconic and sure to stand the test of time — much like the film.

These are the sharpest lines from the most stylish standoff in movies.

1. Tuco: “When you have to shoot, shoot. Don’t talk.”
2. Blondie (The Good): “You see, in this world there’s two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig.”
3. Tuco: “There are two kinds of spurs, my friend. Those that come in by the door… and those that come in by the window.”
4. Tuco: “I like big fat men like you. When they fall, they make more noise.”
5. Angel Eyes (The Bad): “Even a filthy beggar like that has got a protecting angel. A golden-haired angel watches over him.”
6. Blondie: “Every gun makes its own tune.”
7. Tuco: “I’ve been looking for you for eight months. Whenever I should have had a gun in my hand, you had to go and be a good guy.”
8. Angel Eyes: “You know, the pity is when I’m paid, I always follow my job through. You know that.”
9. Tuco: “God is on our side because he hates the Yanks!”
10. Blondie: “You’re a son of a… [Tuco interrupts] …a son of a thousand fathers, all bastards like you.”
11. Tuco: “You became a priest because you’re too much of a coward to do what I do!”
12. Blondie: “Such ingratitude after all the times I saved your life.”
13. Tuco: “If you work for a living, why do you kill yourself working?”
14. Tuco: “The way I figure, there’s really not too much future with a sawed-off runt like you.”

These are the kind of classic western movie quotes that never get old being quoted, memed, and stitched into modern movies. The lines from The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is dry, lethal and the perfect amount of funny. They aren’t just dialogue — they’re in the DNA of film itself.

Whether you are a fan of this for the Clint Eastwood quotes, Tuco’s finest lines or just to remember that the loudest words are sometimes the quietest, this is the gold.

When The Fellowship of the Ring hit the big screen in 2001, it launched more than just a trilogy — it launched a timeless epic. Following its Oscar win for best picture, the first film in Peter Jackson’s Tolkien trilogy is an epic introduction to the director’s take on the author’s beloved saga, as we are plunged into the world of Middle-earth, where friendship, fate and one very cursed ring do battle.

Beyond the general fantasy, Fellowship is full of heart — and dialogue that sticks with you long after the credits have rolled. From Gandalf’s wisdom to Boromir’s tragic last moments, these Fellowship of the Ring quotes are still popular throughout the entire fandom.

These are the best lines from the movie that kicked it all off.

1. Gandalf: “A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins. Nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.”
2. Frodo: “I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.”
3. Gandalf: “So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.”
4. Boromir: “One does not simply walk into Mordor.”
5. Aragorn: “If by my life or death I can protect you, I will.”
6. Legolas: “You would die before your stroke fell!”
7. Gimli: “Nobody tosses a dwarf!”
8. Aragorn: “You have my sword.”
9. Legolas: “And you have my bow.”
10. Gimli: “And my axe.”
11. Gandalf: “Fly, you fools!”
12. Aragorn: “I would have followed you, my brother… my captain… my king.”
13. Galadriel: “Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.”
14. Boromir: “I tried to take the ring from him.”
15. Frodo: “I will take the Ring to Mordor! Though… I do not know the way.”
16. Sam: “I made a promise, Mr. Frodo. A promise! ‘Don’t you leave him, Samwise Gamgee.’ And I don’t mean to.”

In The Fellowship of the Ring, we received not just an epic journey, but quotes that spoke to fear and hope and loyalty and the courage to keep going. These Lord of the Rings quotes endure because they are true — in a world of elves, hobbits, and ancient evils, yes, but true.

Looking for Gandalf quotes, moments that encapsulate Frodo’s journey, or a reminder of what made the Fellowship compelling? This list has them all.

Some movies are quotable. Pulp Fiction is a movie that can be almost infinitely quoted. “Every scene, every line, every little idiosyncratic turn of dialogue feels like it was written with an eye toward being quoted or getting tattooed on some mish-mash version of someone’s already pretty beat-up soul,” Emily Nussbaum wrote in The New Yorker. Released in 1994 and directed by Quentin Tarantino, the film sent indie cinema into a tailspin and gave us characters who don’t sound like anyone else, yet somehow make perfect sense.

Whether that’s Jules spitting Bible verses, Vincent ranting about burgers or Mia Wallace casually chattering about foot massages, Pulp Fiction quotes just hit different. They’re sharp, odd, strangely deep — and full of rewatching potential.

If you want the most iconic Pulp Fiction quotes, here are just the quotes that made the film impossible to forget.

1. Jules Winnfield: “Say ‘what’ again. I dare you, I double dare you motherf***er!”
2. Vincent Vega: “You know what they call a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Paris?”
3. Jules Winnfield: “The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish…”
4. Mia Wallace: “Don’t you hate that? Uncomfortable silences. Why do we feel it’s necessary to yak about bullshit in order to be comfortable?”
5. Butch: “Zed’s dead, baby. Zed’s dead.”
6. Jules Winnfield: “I’m trying real hard to be the shepherd.”
7. Vincent Vega: “That’s a pretty fing good milkshake. I don’t know if it’s worth five dollars, but it’s pretty fing good.”
8. The Wolf: “I solve problems.”
9. Lance: “You’re gonna give her an adrenalin shot in the heart? Are you f***ing serious?”
10. Jules Winnfield: “Do you read the Bible, Brett?”
11. Honey Bunny: “Any of you fing pricks move, and I’ll execute every motherfing last one of you!”
12. Marsellus Wallace: “I’m gonna get medieval on your ass.”
13. Jules Winnfield: “I just shot Marvin in the face.”
14. Vincent Vega: “That’s pride fin’ with you. F pride! Pride only hurts, it never helps.”
15. Captain Koons: “This watch was on your daddy’s wrist when he was shot down over Hanoi.”
16. Jules Winnfield: “I’m the foot-f***in’ master.”

Tarantino didn’t just put together Pulp Fiction, he weaponized dialogue. These Pulp Fiction quotes go beyond the dialogue to give you that More or less, Pulp Fiction quotes sayings These Pulp Fiction quotes are not just for laughs and coolness. They carry energy. They defy all of the rules, and yet it somehow feels like that’s the purpose. From chit-chat to spiritual monologues, the lines in this movie made going to the movies feel risky again.

So whether you came for the Jules Winnfield quotes, the Tarantino dialogue, or just a dose of ‘90s movie magic, this list has you covered.

Some movies are meant to be entertaining. And then there are the films that haunt. And “Schindler’s List” is the second type. As directed by Steven Spielberg and released in 1993, it was not only one of the most powerful Holocaust films ever made — it was one of the most significant works of cinema, full stop.

Based on the real-life Holocaust hero Oskar Schindler, a German businessman who rescued more than a thousand Jewish people during the Holocaust, the movie is unflinching, raw and emotionally devastating. And the dialogue? It cuts deep. These Schindler’s List quotes aren’t the type you repeat — they have a way of lingering with you. Because words count, every one of them.

1. Oskar Schindler: “Whoever saves one life, saves the world entire.”
2. Itzhak Stern: “This list is an absolute good. The list is life. All around its margins lies the gulf.”
3. Oskar Schindler: “Power is when we have every justification to kill, and we don’t.”
4. Amon Goeth: “Today is history. Today will be remembered.”
5. Oskar Schindler: “I could have got more out… I could have got more… if I just…”
6. Itzhak Stern: “There will be generations because of what you did.”
7. Oskar Schindler: “This pin… two people. This is gold. Two more people.”
8. Amon Goeth: “They cast a spell on you, you Jews. It’s a trick — the successful ones make us believe we need them.”
9. Itzhak Stern: “You’re giving them hope. You shouldn’t do that. That’s cruel.”
10. Oskar Schindler: “War brings out the worst in people. Never the good, always the bad.”
11. Amon Goeth: “I pardon you.”
12. Itzhak Stern: “I know you’ve received a lot, sir. But the thing you’ll never get back is the time.”
13. Rabbi: “This is Hebrew. It says: ‘Whoever saves one life, saves the world entire.’”
14. Closing text on screen: “There are fewer than 4,000 Jews left alive in Poland today. There are more than 6,000 descendants of the Schindler Jews.”

Schindler’s List drives its drama above all by not resorting to dramatic music or flashy visuals. It hits you with quiet, with looks, with sentences suspended uncomfortably in the air. These quotes aren’t just memorable movie lines — they’re brutal truths. They remind us of what can happen when humanity loses its conscience.

— May 2, 2019 If you’re putting together a list of the most powerful Holocaust film quotes or if you’re simply reflecting on the most emotionally impactful lines in film history, here are the ones that matter.

Let’s be clear, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King was not simply a blockbuster — it was a feat of cinema. Directed by Peter Jackson and concluding Tolkien’s epic trilogy, would serve up emotional closure, massive battles and lines of dialogue that would reverberate through fantasy fandom for years to come.

6. Aragorn: “This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you stand, Men of the West!”
7. Sam: “There’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.”
8. Gandalf: “End? No, the journey doesn’t end here. Death is just another path… one that we all must take.”

10. Frodo: “It’s gone. It’s done.”

15. Gandalf: “All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.”

If you’re compiling a list of the most powerful Lord of the Rings quotes, Aragorn speeches, or lines from epic fantasy movies in general, these are the ones that make us want to stand and cheer. Return of the King wasn’t just an ending — it was a gift. And these quotes? They are the sort you take with you long after you’ve departed Middle-earth.

Next: want quotes from Fellowship of the Ring, Two Towers or something completely different along the lines of Inception or Gladiator? Let me know.

A 1957 release, sited almost entirely in a single room, 12 Angry Men is still one of the most compelling courtroom films ever made. Directed by Sidney Lumet film follows 12 jurors that must decide the fate of a boy accused of murder, a boy whose life depends on their verdict. What begins as a slam-dunk case becomes anything but, revealing the prejudices, tempers and unexpected humanity within each man.

If you’re looking for the best 12 Angry Men quotes, then you have come to the right place- the kind of truths that provoke a second take on your whole perspective on justice, doubt, and human nature. These lines show you need neither flashy effects nor a huge cast to generate indelible tension — simply razor-sharp writing, palpable characters and voices that refuse to be silenced.

1. Juror #8: “It’s not easy for me to raise my hand and send a boy off to die without talking about it first.”
2. Juror #3: “You’re talking about a matter of seconds! Nobody can be that accurate!”
3. Juror #9: “It takes a great deal of courage to stand alone, even if you believe in something very strongly.”
4. Juror #10: “You know how these people lie. It’s born in them.”
5. Juror #8: “We’re talking about somebody’s life here. We can’t decide in five minutes. Supposing we’re wrong?”
6. Juror #11: “I have always thought that in this country a man was entitled to have unpopular opinions…”
7. Juror #7: “This is the hottest day of the year. You can’t expect anybody to keep their tempers in this kind of heat.”
8. Juror #3: “He’s got to burn! He’s slipping through our fingers!”
9. Juror #4: “I don’t see any need for arguing like this. I think we ought to be able to behave like gentlemen.”
10. Juror #8: “We’re not convinced. We want to hear them again. We have a reasonable doubt, and this is not a personal thing.”
11. Juror #5: “I’ve lived in a slum all my life. I played in backyards that were filled with garbage. Maybe you can still smell it on me.”
12. Juror #9: “He said it and he meant it. But I think he’s a very confused old man.”

Some of these sequels attempt to rekindle the magic. The Godfather Part II constructs a goddamned empire on it. Francis Ford Coppola’s 1974 sequel to The Godfather surpassed the original—some would argue it was even better. This time around, the film divides its attention between two Corleones: the young upstart Vito (perfectly embodied by Robert De Niro) and his son Michael (Al Pacino), now firmly ensconced in the role of family patriarch. It’s also darker, colder, more tragic. And, once again, it’s crammed full of quotes that hurt — that have been rent-free in the heads of fans, detractors and mob-movie completists ever since. It can also be watched on streaming platforms like 123 movies.

If you’re after some of the Godfather Part II quotes you can’t forget, the ones that really hit on betrayal, power, loyalty and quiet heartbreak, then these are the lines that say it all.

1. Michael Corleone: Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.
2. Frank Pentangeli: Your father did business with Hyman Roth, your father respected Hyman Roth… but your father never trusted Hyman Roth!
3. Michael Corleone: If anything in this life is certain, if history has taught us anything, it is that you can kill anyone.
4. Hyman Roth: This is the business we’ve chosen.
5. Young Vito Corleone: I make him an offer he don’t refuse.
6. Michael Corleone: I know it was you, Fredo. You broke my heart.
7. Tom Hagen: Mike, why am I out?
8. Michael Corleone: You’re not a wartime consigliere, Tom. Things may get rough with the move we’re trying.
9. Michael Corleone: I don’t feel I have to wipe everybody out, Tom. Just my enemies.
10. Senator Geary: I despise your masquerade, the dishonest way you pose yourself.
11. Fredo Corleone: I’m your older brother, Mike, and I was stepped over!
12. Michael Corleone: You’re nothing to me now. You’re not a brother, you’re not a friend.
13. Young Vito Corleone: There was no other way, son.
14. Michael Corleone: All my life I kept trying to go up in society — where it’s legal — and I did it for my family.
15. Tom Hagen: When a plot against the Emperor failed… the plotters were always given a chance to let their families keep their fortunes.
16. Michael Corleone: I don’t apologize — to take care of my family — and I refused to be a fool dancing on the strings held by all those big shots.

When The Dark Knight dropped in 2008, it wasn’t just another superhero movie. It changed everything we thought we knew about what comic book movies could be — grim, smart, morally complicated, truly haunting. Directed by Christopher Nolan and anchored by Heath Ledger’s stunning work as the Joker, The Dark Knight supplied more than just explosions and cronies for the Batmobile. It gave us lines. The heavy, memorable and sometimes jarring lines that remain widely quoted everywhere from TikTok edits to graduation speeches (seriously).

If you’re looking for the best quotes from the Dark Knight, then this is what you need. From Bruce Wayne’s existential dilemmas to Joker’s full-blown truth bombs, the film is packed with more lines that rattle around in your brain like loose change found beneath a theatre seat. When you watch The Dark Knight, you don’t just watch The Dark Knight, you feel it. The movie itself can also be seen on platforms like 123 movies and others.

These are the quotes that made it unforgettable.

• Joker: Why so serious?
• Batman: Sometimes, the truth isn’t good enough. Sometimes people deserve more. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded.
• Harvey Dent: You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
• Joker: If you’re good at something, never do it for free.
• Alfred: Some men just want to watch the world burn.
• Joker: Madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is a little push.
• Bruce Wayne: I’m whatever Gotham needs me to be.
• Harvey Dent: The night is darkest just before the dawn. And I promise you, the dawn is coming.
• Joker: You have nothing, nothing to threaten me with. Nothing to do with all your strength.
• Alfred: You crossed the line first, sir. You squeezed them, you hammered them to the point of desperation. And in their desperation, they turned to a man they didn’t fully understand.
• Batman: You thought we could be decent men in an indecent time.
• Joker: Introduce a little anarchy. Upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos. I’m an agent of chaos.
• Bruce Wayne: People need dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy.
• Joker: I believe whatever doesn’t kill you simply makes you… stranger.
• Rachel Dawes: It’s not who you are underneath, it’s what you do that defines you.
• Commissioner Gordon: He’s the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now.
• Joker: You complete me.
