Greatest Movie Quotes of All-Time Great Movie Quotes
Greatest Movie Quotes of All-Time: Listen to and check out some of the most popular and well-known lines of movie dialogue.
  • What are the most famous movie quotes and great lines of dialogue from over 75 years of sound films?
  • What are the best film speeches and monologues ever made?
  • What are the best-known last lines of films?
  • What are the most famous film misquotations?
Many thanks to the many celebrated and unheralded screenwriters who have provided generations of movie-goers with such memorable movie quotes and lines of dialogue, from film speeches, one-liners, quips, punchlines, statements, insults, and even mis-quotes. Their words are remembered through popular use, critical acclaim, shock value and quotability, and for many other reasons.
Some lines become more visible or recognizable than was the original intention. Scores of memorable lines have captured our attention by the way the line was delivered, by the tone in the actor's voice, the electricity on the screen, or many have become catch phrases. Many memorable movie lines are not from the greatest films, but they have remained as part of the film's legacy (and etched a place in movie history) anyway!
