 James Read QuotationMovie Title: North and South II (1986) as George Hazard: George Hazard : [avoiding to talk about the war] What's that on your finger? Orry Main : [smiles] Madeline and I were finally married. George Hazard : Oh, congratulations! Orry Main : I wish you'd been there to be my best man. George Hazard : I'll make it up to you! Throw you the greatest party you ever saw, after the war! Orry Main : [both laughing] Great! George Hazard : We'll make it a West Point reunion. I'll even invite Marcus Hessler, remember him? Orry Main : [tense pause] He was killed by a Union shooter last week. George Hazard : [another tense pause] Orry, Lincoln bend over backwards to accomodate the South... Orry Main : Then why did he invade Virginia? You call Bull Run accomodate? George Hazard : Wait a minute, I was there, I saw it! There was an entire rebel army waiting to invade the capital, what was Lincoln supposed to do? He took an oath to preserve the Union. The South started it by firing on Sumpter! Orry Main : We didn't start anything! We just wanted to be left alone! Orry Main : You never even gave him a chance! You refused to compromise! He just could NOT extend slavery into the new territories! Orry Main : That is NOT the issue George! We both agreed that slavery is an outmoted institution that will only hold South back! George Hazard : [pause] Dear God, what has happened to us? Orry Main : [gets up] Well, I think that under the circumstances it was best that we ended our business partnership. George Hazard : [to Orry Main] I've missed you, old friend. George Hazard : [Orry and Charles have released George from Libby Prison] I coulnd't have lasted much longer in there, Orry... You saved my life. Thank you... both of you... Orry Main : Don't get yourself shot on your way home. [putting George on a boat] Orry Main : You got food, a blanket, some old clothes... Follow the corrent as long as you can, then head North. There you should find some Union troops. George Hazard : Would you do me another favor? Orry Main : [nodding] What's that? George Hazard : Tell Jeff Davis that if he stops the war, I'll buy the champagne. [smiles] Orry Main : [pauses, then smiles back] You best make that offer to Mr.Lincoln. George Hazard : [talking about his meeting with Orry] At first, it was like nothing had changed, it was just so good to see him again. But it became obvious to me that the war had done something to that sense of understanding that we always seemed to share. When we said goodbye, we were acting just like enemies. And when he broke me out of prison, it was more like he was paying an old debt instead of an act of friendship. Constance Flynn Hazard : [pause] Darling, I love Orry as much as you do, and I know the kind of man he is. He would never turn his back on you, or your friendship. George Hazard : You have not only ruined this family's reputation, you have probably destroyed the future of the Hazard Iron, which is NOTHING compared to the senseless killing of how many Union soldiers! YOU MISERABLE TRAITOR! Stanley Hazard : ...Please forgive me. Movie Title: North and South (1985) as George: Constance : You know I fell in love with you during our very first dance. George : Was it my face or the uniform? Constance : It was the way you looked when Major Laferty cut in on us, like a little lost puppy dog. George : [In the middle of a battle, Orry is hit] ... ORRY! Justin : [after Madeline gives her opinion about secession in public] My dear, you forget yourself. Nobody here in this company cares what you have to say. [drags her out of the room] George : They're married, Orry. He's an arrogant ass but there's nothing you can do about it. Orry Main : I'd like to horse whip him! George : So would I. But it's not the time or the place. George : [Orry's at the hospital, George is visiting him] I'm in love Orry. [laughs] George : Her name is Constance Flynn and she's wonderful. Now I know what you meant about Madeline and you. [Orry looks sad] George : She's warm, she's funny. She's beautiful. She's a first class cook too. [laughs] George : I think I've been looking for her all my life. When I get up the courage, I'm going to ask her to marry me. Orry Main : [cool as ice] That's wonderful George. I'm very happy for you. Orry Main : [talking about Madeline] Until you've been in love, you don't know what it's like. Nothing else seems to matter. George : Then you sir, are a romantic fool. Elkanah Bent : [threatening George and Orry] And you be on your guard. Because I won't forget you two. I won't forget you two, ever. [leaves] George : That man is crazy. Orry Main : So we better believe him. George : And be on our guard? For how long...? The rest of our lifes? George : You didn't think I'd let you go to Mexico without me, did ya? Orry Main : This is our way of life, it has been for more than a hundred years! [pause] Orry Main : How would you like me, to come up to Lehigh Station, telling you how to run your life, to change the way you have always lived? [pause] Orry Main : But I mean this George. You and me... we're good friends, and if we wanna keep that friendship, there are certain things we can never say to each other. Some things we can never talk about. George : [long pause] I guess you're right. [Orry begins to talk, George interrupts him] George : We're supposed to be fighting Mexicans... not each other! George : [in the middle of a battle] We can't stay here! And we can't go back! Orry Main : That's what Bent had in mind! Orry Main : [Orry is drunk] I think I'll be the judge of that. George : Do you? Well I don't think you've got the judgement of a mule right now, all you do is sit there and feel sorry for yourself. Elkanah Bent : What do you want, Hazard? Your manner is offensive. And what's more, you're out of uniform. George : I'm glad you notice. Or else I couldn't give you this. [punches Bent] Movie Title: Eight Men Out (1988) as Lefty Williams: [Shoeless Joe Jackson is talking to his bat] Shoeless Joe : Big whop now. Big whop, Betsy; you tell me when. Swede Risberg : Does it ever answer you, Joe? Freddie : Probably sleeps with it. Lefty Williams : Lay off him. Freddie : Ask it for a triple, Joe. Lefty Williams : I said leave him alone. Hap Felsch : You crackers stick together, huh Lefty. Lefty Williams : Never mind that. Just leave him be. Freddie : Hey, Lefty. The Civil War was sixty years ago. Ease up. Hap Felsch : Besides, you guys lost. It was in all the papers. Freddie : That wouldn't help Jackson none. Hired Killer : You're gonna lose tomorrow. Lefty Williams : Oh, is that so? Hired Killer : I know it for a fact. That your wife? Lefty Williams : Yeah, what's it to you? Hired Killer : You don't lose tomorrow, she dies. Lefty Williams : Who sent you? Hired Killer : You made a promise to certain people. Lefty Williams : You son of a bitch! Hired Killer : You can't protect her. If I don't do it, somebody else will. First inning, Mister Williams. Movie Title: Legally Blonde (2001) as Elle's Father: Elle's Mother : Honey, you were First Runner-Up at the "Miss Hawaiian Tropics" contest. Why are you going to throw that all away? Elle : Going to Harvard is the only way I'm going to get the love of my life back. Elle's Father : Oh, sweetheart, you don't need law school. Law school is for people who are boring and ugly and serious. And you, button, are none of those things. |
