It's from Die Hard With A
Vengeance. This was from Charlie, NYPD bomb-expert.

Charlie (upon inspecting the bomb in the school): Four booby traps, two dead ends... and a partridge in a pear tree.

More quality lines from Cusack characters...

Rob Gordon in High Fidelity:
What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?

Lloyd Dobler in Say Anything:
I'm not going to Seattle Junior College. Man, I gotta be honest with you, I'm not looking for that. I'm looking for something bigger. I'm looking for a dare to be great situation.

More Lloyd:
A career? I've thought about this quite a bit sir and I would have to say considering what's waiting out there for me, I don't want to sell anything, buy anything or process anything as a career. I dont want to sell anything bought or processed or buy anything sold or processed or repair anything sold, bought or processed as a career. I dont want to do that. My father's in the army. He wants me to join, but I can't work for that corporation, so what I've been doing lately is kick-boxing, which is a new sport...as far as career longevity, I dont really know. I cant figure it all out tonight, sir, so I'm just gonna hang with your daughter.

This is one of my favorite lines from the movies. It's so simple, but so elegant and intimate. I love the scenes when spouses of cheating members are able to call them on their behavior.
 
Uh-oh...now you got me going on PoTC:

"Impersonating clergy of the church of England..."
"Oh yeah..." - At Jack's persecution

"Stop blowing holes in my ship!" - Jack

"Elizabeth. It would never have worked between us darling. I'm sorry. Will.....nice hat." - Jack Sparrow

"Oh, not you. We named the monkey Jack." - 'Captain' Barbossa

"I'm sorry, it's such a pretty boat...ship." - Jack Sparrow

"And how many times must I ask you to call me Elizabeth?"
"At least once more, Miss Swann." - Elizabeth and Will

"Now, bring me that horizon. Da-na na na na na....and really bad eggs. Drink up me 'arties, yo ho!" - Jack Sparrow

"I know....clap him in irons, right?" - Jack Sparrow

...I really think I could go on and on with all those quotes (mostly by Jack) but, yea, I'm too lazy.

Abbe du Coulmier: Here. Start with the Bible. It's cheerier and more artfully written.

The Marquis de Sade: What, this monstrous God of yours? He strung up his very own son like a side of veal. I shudder to think what he'd do to me.

From "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead"

Rosencrantz : Did you ever think of yourself as actually dead, lying in a box with a lid on it?
Guildenstern : No.
Rosencrantz : Nor do I, really. It's silly to be depressed by it. I mean, one thinks of it like being alive in a box. One keeps forgetting to take into account the fact that one is dead, which should make all the difference, shouldn't it? I mean, you'd never *know* you were in a box, would you? It would be just like you were asleep in a box. Not that I'd like to sleep in a box, mind you. Not without any air. You'd wake up dead for a start, and then where would you be? In a box. That's the bit I don't like, frankly. That's why I don't think of it. Because you'd be helpless, wouldn't you? Stuffed in a box like that. I mean, you'd be in there forever, even taking into account the fact that you're dead. It isn't a pleasant thought. Especially if you're dead, really. Ask yourself, if I asked you straight off, "I'm going to stuff you in this box. Now, would you rather be alive or dead?" naturally, you'd prefer to be alive. Life in a box is better than no life at all, I expect. You'd have a chance, at least. You could lie there thinking, "Well, at least I'm not dead. In a minute somebody is going to bang on the lid, and tell me to come out."
[bangs on lid]
Rosencrantz : "Hey you! What's your name? Come out of there!"
Guildenstern : [long pause] I think I'm going to kill you.

I love this movie:D

I like that one, too. :) I'm glad you liked them! The quote you posted (about the necklace) makes me smile.
 
[Mallrats]

Brodie: Cookie stand's not part of the food court.
T.S.: Sure it is.
Brodie: The food court is downstairs the cookie stand is upstairs it's not like we're talking quantum physics here!
T.S.: The cookie stand is an eatery, an eatery is part of the food court.
Brodie: Bullsh!t! Eateries that operate within the designated square downstairs qualify as food court, anything operating outside the said designated square is considered an autonomous unit for mid-mall snacking.

**

Brodie: One time my cousin Walter got this cat stuck in his ass. True story. He bought it at the local mall, so the whole fiasco wound up on the news. It was embarrassing for my relatives and all. But the next week, he did it again. Different cat, same results, complete with a trip to the emergency room. Then, last week, I saw him in the pet store. He was buying another cat! I said, "Walt, what the hell are you doing, you know you're just gonna get this cat stuck up your ass too, why don't you knock it off?" And he says to me, "Brodie, how the hell else am I supposed to get the gerbil out?" My cousin was a weird guy.

Little Girl: [looking at a Magic Eye poster] Wow! It's a scooner!
William: Ha ha ha ha! You dumb bastard! It's not a scooner...it's a Sailboat!
Little Boy: A scooner IS a sailboat Stupid Head!
William: [becoming enraged] Well ya know what! There is NO Easter Bunny!! Over there? That's just a Guy in a Suit!
