I heard an absolutely powerful and touching new line of dialogue during a TV show I was watching last night. That gave me the idea to start an on-going thread, where everyone can post anything they hear in a movie, on film, read in a book, etc. they would like to share.

So, as an icebreaker, here is the line (with context) I heard last night on Doctor Who:

(The story was set during a blitz on London in WWII. The Doctor and his companion, Rose, had to find a way to prevent a set of repair nano-probes from a crashed alien spaceship from "fixing" all life on earth to match the incomplete programming they were working with.)

Doctor Who: "Just this once, Rose, everybody lived. EVERYBODY LIVED!"

I hear him. At least for this one time, everybody lived in the end.

from the last few minutes of SERENITY:

Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: But it ain’t all buttons and charts, little albatross. You know what the first rule of flyin’ is? Well I suppose you do, since you already know what I’m about to say.
River Tam: I do. But I like to hear you say it.
Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: Love. You can know all the math in the ‘Verse, but take a boat in the air you don’t love, she’ll shake you off just as sure as the turning of worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she oughta fall down, tells ya she’s hurtin’ ‘fore she keens. Makes her home.

From the 1974 disaster craptacular, EARTHQUAKE.

In an attempt to rescue office workers trapped in a crumbling skyscraper, a chair is tied to a fire hose, but a seatbelt is needed for further safety.

This is when Lorne Greene yells to his secretary.....

"BARBARA! TAKE OFF YOUR PANTYHOSE, DAMMIT!"
