(pause) Juicily?"

Father of the Bride (1991)
Love is wonderful. Until it happens to your only
daughter.
"I
used to think a wedding was a simple affair. Boy and girl meet,
they fall in love, he buys a ring, she buys a dress, they say
I do. I was wrong. That's getting married. A wedding is an entirely
different proposition. I know. I've just been through one. Not
my own, my daughter's."
"Well,
that's the thing about life, is, uh, the surprises, the little things
that sneak up on you and grab hold of you."
"Who
presents this woman? This woman? But she's not a woman. She's
just a kid. And she's leaving us. I realized at that moment that
I was never going to come home again and see Annie at the top of
the stairs. Never going to see her again at our breakfast table in
her nightgown and socks. I suddenly realized what was happening.
Annie was all grown up and leaving us, and something inside began
to hurt."

Frankie & Johnny (1991)
You never choose love. Love chooses you.
"I'm
a BLT down sort of person, and I think you're looking for someone
a little more pheasant under glass."
"Send
out for a pizza. Rent a film. That's dinner and a movie. And I don't
have to deal with some jerk trying to put his tongue in my ear."

Fried Green Tomatoes (1991)
The secret of life? The secret's in the sauce.
"I
can't even look at my own vagina."
Evelyn: "I never get mad, Mrs Threadgoode. Never. The way I was
raised, it was bad manners. Well, I got mad and it felt terrific. I
felt like I could beat the s--t out of all those punks. Excuse my language.
Just beat 'em to a pulp. Beat 'em til they begged for mercy. Towanda
the Avenger. And after I, after I wipe out all the punks of this world,
I'll take on the wife-beaters, like Frank Bennett, and machine-gun
their genitals! Towanda will go on the rampage. I'll put tiny little
bombs in Penthouse and Playboy so they'll explode when
you open 'em. And I'll ban all fashion models who weigh less than 130
pounds. And I'll give half the military budget to people over 65 and
declare wrinkles sexually-desirable. Towanda, Righter of Wrongs, Queen
beyond compare!"
Ninny: "How many of them hormones (are) you taking, honey?"

Thelma & Louise (1991)
Somebody said get a life... so they did.
"You
shoot off a guy's head with his pants down, believe me, Texas
ain't the place you want to get caught."
"I
don't ever remember feeling this awake."
Thelma: "Are you sure we should be driving like this, I mean in
broad daylight and everything?"
Louise: "No, we shouldn't, but I want to put some distance between
us and the scene of our last goddamn crime."
Thelma: "But, I don't know, somethin's crossed over in me. I can't
go back. I mean, I just couldn't live."
Louise: "I know, I know what you mean. Anyway, don't wanna end
up on the damned Geraldo show."

Enchanted April (1992)
It's April in Italy, and anything can happen...even
love.
"In
my day, husbands and beds were very seldom mentioned in the same
breath. Husbands were taken seriously, as the only true obstacle
to sin." |

A League of Their Own (1992)
A woman's place is on home, first, second, and third.
"Careers
and higher education are leading to the masculinization of women,
with enormously dangerous consequences to the home, the children,
and our country. When our boys come home from war, what kind of girls
will they be coming home to? And now the most disgusting example
of this sexual confusion: Mr. Walter Harvey of Harvey Bars is presenting
us with women's baseball. Right here in Chicago, young girls plucked
from their families are gathered at Harvey Field to see which one
of them can be the most masculine. Mr. Harvey, like your candy bars,
you're completely... nuts."
"Ladies,
ladies. You can't play ball in this, you can't play ball with us.
Right now, there are 38 girls getting train tickets home who will
play in a bathing suit if I ask them...There is no smoking. There
is also no drinking and no men. All of your social engagements will
be cleared through your team chaperones. Plus, each of you will have
regular classes in charm and beauty school...Every girl in this league
is going to be a lady."
"Well,
I was just wonderin' 'cause I couldn't figure out why you would throw
home when we've got a two-run lead. You let the tying run get on
second and we lost the lead because of you. Now you start using your
head. That's that lump that's three feet above your ass. Are you
crying?...Are you crying? ARE YOU CRYING? There's no crying! THERE'S
NO CRYING IN BASEBALL!"
