AFI #001 Clark Gable as Rhett Butler from Gone with the Wind (1939)

Image
Rhett: It seems we've been at cross-purposes, doesn't it? But it's no use now. As long as there was Bonnie, there was a chance that we might be happy. I liked to think that Bonnie was you, a little girl again, before the war, and poverty had done things to you. She was so like you, and I could pet her and spoil her, as I wanted to spoil you. But when she went, she took everything. Scarlett: Oh, Rhett, Rhett please don't say that. I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry for everything. Rhett: My darling, you're such a child. You think that by saying "I'm sorry," all the past can be corrected. Here, take my handkerchief. Never, at any crisis of your life, have I known you to have a handkerchief. Scarlett: Rhett! Rhett, where are you going? Rhett: I'm going to Charleston, back where I belong. Scarlett: Please, please take me with you! Rhett: No, I'm through with everything here. I want peace. I want to see if somewhere there isn't something ...

AFI #002 Marlon Brando as Don Vito Corleone from The Godfather (1972)

Image
Johnny Fontane: A month ago, he bought the movie rights to this book. A best seller – and the main character, it's a guy just like me. I, uh, I wouldn't even have to act, just be myself. [choking up] Oh, Godfather, I don't know what to do. I don't know what to do. [Don Corleone stands up and shakes Johnny] Don Corleone: [shouting] You can act like a man! [Don Corleone slaps Johnny] Don Corleone: What's the matter with you? Is this how you turned out? A Hollywood finocchio that cries like a woman? [mockingly] "What can I do? What can I do?" What is that nonsense? Ridiculous. You spend time with your family? Johnny Fontane: Sure I do. Don Corleone: Good. A man who doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man. Come here … you look terrible. I want you to eat. I want you to rest a while. And in a month from now, this Hollywood bigshot's gonna give you what you want. Johnny Fontane: It's too late, they start shooting in a week. ...

AFI #003 Marlon Brando as Terry Malloy from On the Waterfront (1954)

Image
Charlie: Look, kid, I - how much you weigh, son? When you weighed one hundred and sixty-eight pounds you were beautiful. You coulda been another Billy Conn, and that skunk we got you for a manager, he brought you along too fast. Terry: It wasn't him, Charley, it was you. Remember that night in the Garden you came down to my dressing room and you said, "Kid, this ain't your night. We're going for the price on Wilson." You remember that? "This ain't your night"! My night! I coulda taken Wilson apart! So what happens? He gets the title shot outdoors on the ballpark and what do I get? A one-way ticket to Palooka-ville! You was my brother, Charley, you shoulda looked out for me a little bit. You shoulda taken care of me just a little bit so I wouldn't have to take them dives for the short-end money. Charlie: Oh I had some bets down for you. You saw some money. Terry: You don't understand! I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I could...

Dorothy: [has just arrived in Oz, looking around and awed at the beauty and splendor] Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore. Dorothy: [after a pause] We must be over the rainbow!

AFI #005 Humphrey Bogart as Rick Blaine from Casablanca (1942)

Image
Rick: Last night we said a great many things. You said I was to do the thinking for both of us. Well, I've done a lot of it since then, and it all adds up to one thing: you're getting on that plane with Victor where you belong. Ilsa: But, Richard, no, I... I... Rick: Now, you've got to listen to me! You have any idea what you'd have to look forward to if you stayed here? Nine chances out of ten, we'd both wind up in a concentration camp. Isn't that true, Louie? Captain Renault: I'm afraid Major Strasser would insist. Ilsa: You're saying this only to make me go. Rick: I'm saying it because it's true. Inside of us, we both know you belong with Victor. You're part of his work, the thing that keeps him going. If that plane leaves the ground and you're not with him, you'll regret it. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life. Ilsa: But what about us? Rick: We'll always have Paris. We didn't ...

AFI #005 Humphrey Bogart as Rick Blaine from Casablanca (1942)

Image
Ilsa: I can't fight it anymore. I ran away from you once. I can't do it again. Oh, I don't know what's right any longer. You have to think for both of us. For all of us. Rick: All right, I will. Here's looking at you, kid. Ilsa: [smiles] I wish I didn't love you so much. - Humphrey Bogart as Rick Blaine from Casablanca (1942) The bolded line is ranked #5 in the American Film Institute's list of the top 100 movie quotations in American cinema. In Japan and Korea, the line "Here's looking at you" is translated as "Cheers to your eyes". This phrase is actually a toast that originated around the fights that occurred in the pubs of old. It was commonplace for a patron to wait until his adversary was drinking from their stein of ale (and their vision was therefore blocked by the stein) to attack ... it bettered their odds of success. It is led to the development of the glass-bottomed stein in which the drinker could keep the oth...
