100 Most Memorable Movie Quotes

AFI will air one of its annual list specials in the summer--this year, the theme is the 100 Most Memorable Movie Quotes. As I am sure that the AFI will undoubtedly leave out some of the best movie quotes in lieu of just about any line of dialogue from Casablanca, I am asking for your help. Let's compile our own 100 Most Memorable Movie Quotes. I am accepting submissions starting now. Leave 1, or leave 100. I will compile everyone's nominations (and judge them for myself) and then post the definitive 100 Most Memorable Movie Quotes. Let the games begin!
