You smell that? Do you smell that? Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for twelve hours. When it was all over I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like … victory. Someday this war's gonna end.
- Robert Duvall as Lieutenant Colonel Bill Kilgore from Apocalypse Now (1979)
The bolded line is ranked #12 in the American Film Institute's list of the top 100 movie quotations in American cinema.
너도 그 냄새를 맡았어? 냄새를 맡았어? 소이탄(燒夷彈). 세상에 그런 냄새는 없어. 나는 아침에 소이탄의 냄새를 맡는 걸 좋아하지. 언젠가 우리는 어느 고지를 12시간동안 폭격했지. 모든게 끝났을 때, 난 걸어갔어. 우리는 아무것도 발견할 수 없었지. 그 놈의 시체라고는 아무것도 발견할 수 없었어. 가솔린 같은 냄새가 가득할 뿐. 그건 승리의 냄새 같았어. 언젠가 이 전쟁은 끝날 거야.
- 빌 킬고어 중령 (로버트 듀발), 지옥의 묵시록 (1979)

Money, Douglas Adams
This planet has — or rather had — a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movement of small green pieces of paper, which was odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.

Money, Eric Hoffer
Every era has a currency that buys souls. In some the currency is pride, in others it is hope, in still others it is a holy cause. There are of course times when hard cash will buy souls, and the remarkable thing is that such times are marked by civility, tolerance, and the smooth working of everyday life.

Life, Sri Chinmoy
Since life is but a continuous series of experiences, everything ultimately helps me towards my final enlightenment.
