Admittedly, this is more "cult classic" than classic, but it's from the painfully awkward scene in "Say Anything" where Lloyd Dobler has to meet the parents of the girl he's dating. The father asks him what he wants to do with his life, to which he replies:

"I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that."

If anyone has ever dated a dreamer, this might hit home for you.

Amy,

I've probably seen "Say Anything" dozens of times and, you're right, that line is one that struck me, too.

I just saw, "The Odd Couple" again the other night and had to laugh at many, many lines. There's one where Oscar and Felix are fighting about Felix's cleaning habits. Oscar is yelling at Felix for leaving little notes all around the apartment. "Pick up a of gallon milk - F.U."  "Don't forget the dry cleaning - F.U."  "Pick up your socks - F.U."  Oscar says, "It took me three days to figure out that F.U. stood for Felix Unger!!"

It's a great movie!

And that's exactly what I was looking for when I started this topic - not the famous lines, but the throwaway ones that stuck with you on a personal level.

Perfect. Thanks!

My favorite: Groucho Marx as Rufus T. Firefly in Duck Soup

"Remember, men, you're fighting for this woman's honor - which
is more than she ever did."
