The Ten Most Famous Movie Quotes
How Many Do You Know?
(According to The Guinness Book of Film)
Introduction: These are
the ten most recognizable film quotes according to a 1998 survey
of a group of "10 film critics and experts" who were
asked by Guinness to draw up a list of the "ten
most famous movie quotes ever." According to the publication's
editors, "We were looking for quotations that were accessible
and that had popular appeal on a global scale. We were also
looking for wit and delivery. Delivery is important."
The films chosen ranged from 1930
to 1994, and six of the 10 were from the 1930s and '40s. If
you're interested, Odeon Cinemas in the UK conducted a similar
survey in 2003 to determine the
10 Best Movie Lines Ever, with some duplications!
