Love this idea Ibrahim! I'll gladly be the first to submit my all-time favorite quote from my all-time favorite movie delivered from none other than [SPOILER] George Bailey

What is it you want, Mary? What do you want? You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down. Hey. That's a pretty good idea. I'll give you the moon, Mary.

Hits the feels everytime <3

Thanks Kyle for the praise, I just got this idea while referring to "Poll Board Members Favorite...." titled polls some days back and today this poped up into my mind.

I've added your pick.
And btw sorry about the image because I've already selected the list in Titles format but i guess its a good idea to have an image list and those scenes where the quotes were said.

My all time favorite is It's a Wonderful Life. It is already taken. My second is Psycho, but I don't have any quote that I like. I'll go with Taxi Driver 

All the animals come out at night - whores, skunk pussies, buggers, queens, fairies, dopers, junkies, sick, venal. Someday a real rain will come and wash all this scum off the streets.

Added Taxi Driver and your favorite quote.

I was recommending that if you dont have the same favorite quote as that of Kyle from It's a wonderful life then I can add a seperate option for you.
And if you and Kyle have the same favorite quote and if you both dont mind then i can make a single option for you both.

Probably, a bit too famous for its own good. Nice poll idea.

The Godfather
Don Vito Corleone:
I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse

Its not a quote, it is a way of life and philosophy. I like how it keeps popping up over the entire trilogy and how it says much more than those few simple words.

I really like your poll idea, a script with well-written dialogue is probably my favorite aspect of great movies.

Hey, just to be clear the same line is repeated by both Sonny and Michael
in the original Godfather movieAll three times are in conversations with Consigliere Tom Hagen about their strategy in resolving an outstanding dispute at an upcoming meeting with a enemy to the family.

Vito Corleone: I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse.
(to Consigliere Tom Hagen about the Jack Woltz negotiations)

Michael Corleone: I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse.
(to Consigliere Tom Hagen about the Virgil Sollozzo negotiations)

Sonny Corleone: I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse
(to Consigliere Tom Hagen about the Bruno Tattaglia negotiations)

I have to think about it but for now I choose for this quote from Se7en (1995):

William Somerset: Ernest Hemingway once wrote, "The world is a fine place and worth fighting for." I agree with the second part.

I like to change mine. I didn’t read that it had to be a favorite movie. I like Se7en very much, but it isn’t a favorite. So I choose this one from Commando (1985):
Matrix: You're a funny guy, Sully. I like you. That's why I'm going to kill you last.

Yes, it's interesting to me that a new film is my favorite, too. Before I saw 'The Florida Project,' for the first time, in October, my two favorite films (from 1988 and 1994) had remained the same for over fifteen years. And then Sean Baker turned my world upside down, lol.

Yes, 'Titanic' is my favorite movie, but when we are talking about favorite quote, there is no valuable quote of that level in that film. So, I chose the above quote. Which is one of my favorite movie quotes from one of my favorite movies.

I loved the movie by Bergman, Seventh Seal (1957). An intense and philosophical movie on life and death. The visuals and dialogues of the movie are really striking. 

Sharing a quote from this movie 

Antonius Block: I met Death today. We are playing chess.

I was 15 when I first saw The Godfather and before I knew it by heart and could identify it as my all-time favorite movie and before I could check in an Internet list which quote was iconic or not, the quote that impacted me the most and that I thought was the most memorable, and probably my favorite was "Don't ever take sides with anyone against the family, again". For me this line summed up whatever the movie was about, family, loyalty, fate etc.

And I remember when I first traveled to an English-speaking country, I bought the VHS box of the trilogy and in the back of each VHS, there was a quote, before I checked, I felt that it would be that quote in the first film's back cover and it was. Now, it would have been "I'm gonna make him an offer he couldn't refuse" but for many years, I was convinced that the most iconic line of the film was this one, not the "offer" or the "cannoli" or the "Luca Brasi" quote.

My favorite films is Fantasia (1940). This is my favorite quotation (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0032455/quotes) from Fantasia:

Deems Taylor: The last number on our Fantasia program is a combination of two pieces of music so utterly different in construction and mood that they set each other off perfectly. The first is "A Night On Bald Mountain" by one of Russia's greatest composers, Modest Mussorgsky. The second is Franz Schubert's world-famous "Ave Maria". Musically and dramatically, we have here a picture of the struggle between the profane and the sacred. "Bald Mountain" according to tradition, is the gathering place of Satan and his followers. Here, on Walpurgnisnacht, which is the equivalent of our own Halloween, the creatures of evil gather to worship their master. Under his spell, they dance furiously until the coming of dawn and the sounds of church bells send the infernal army slinking back into their abodes of darkness. And then we hear the "Ave Maria", with its message of the triumph of hope and life over the powers of despair and death.

= = =

Unfortunately, this is a rather long quotation.

It's poetic and beautiful but maybe a tad too long, in fact, I think it's more in the realm of narration and description, I'm not making the rules of course but I think we generally consider as quotes such things as statements, phrases or brief exchanges of dialogue... anyway, something so brief that it can be memorized, even a monologue or a speech, as iconic as they are, can't really qualify as quotes... they can have quotable parts though so maybe there's a specific moment of that narration that really hits the chord.

Woops sorry, just realized you had to pick the quote from your favorite movie so it's not like you had a large choice to begin with :) It's true Fantasia is a very literate movie and feature some of the best description of the power of music ever put on a film maybe equalled by the movie Amadeus
