How many people have you shot? Shot or killed? True grit
Jackson Browne
"I'm going to find myself a girl
Who can show me what laughter means
And we'll fill in the missing colors
In each other's paint-by-number dreams
And then we'll put our dark glasses on
And we'll make love until our strength is gone
And when the morning light comes streaming in
We'll get up and do it again
Get it up again"
Forever Young - Bob Dylan
May God bless and keep you always, May your wishes all come true. May you always do for others, and let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars and climb on every rung. May you stay forever young.
May you grow up to be righteous, may you grow up to be true. May you always know the truth, and see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous. May you stand up straight and strong. May you stay forever young.
May your hands always be busy. May your feet always be swift. May you have a strong foundation when the winds begin to shift.
May your heart always be joyful. May your song always be sung. And may you stay.. forever young.
Is that you @WCDawg ?
Yep, it's me.
Sometimes I'm serious.

you get what you put in, and people get what they deserve -Kid Rock in his song Only God Knows Why
Also a quote by whiskey myers. "Home is a sacred ground, not just a plot of land, but rather a cornerstone of identity worth dying for"
Just about any of the songs written by Ronnie Van Zant, especially “Simple Man”
John Hiatt’s “Have A Little Faith In Me”
The Pilgram - Kris Kristofferson
He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction.
Takin' every wrong direction on his lonely way back home.
Sounds familiar
Kristofferson was one of the best with a phrase.
Bumping this thread because it's a great idea and there are still a lot of weeks/months until we get to football season.
Most posts so far have focused on lyrics but there are plenty of book/film quotes to source from. (I was an English major and a big fan of Faulkner and Hemingway. So much good stuff.)
But in honor of the final season of Game of Thrones, which kicked off last night to a reported one billion viewers, I thought I would quote the best line from the best character in the show: Tyrion Lannister (played by the dwarf, and one of our greatest living actors, Peter Dinklage).
“That’s what I do: I drink, and I know things.”
From the movie “Animal House”: “Face it Flounder you xxxxed up, you trusted us.”
That's so good.
You could cut and paste the entire script for Animal House and every line would qualify as HOF worthy.
What gives @FirePlugDawg?
This line is in your OP, "To See: Elsewhere I saw this: "I may not be true, but it was Hollywood." Had to do with a plot line in a movie which may or may not be factual."
AND, there are a handful of TV/film quotes already in the thread that you didn't mark as OT.
So I don't know what's going on.

Also, this is the thanks I get for rescuing your thread from Page 4?
I think this can morph into favorite/most memorable song, but book/film dialog - nah! That should have its own OP. I'll do it if requested. If so, then you're okay with book and film under one OP?
As to most meaningful/moving/favorite song, ONE of them is Mary Wells' You Beat Me to The Punch. Co-written by Smokey Robinson. Motown of course.
This says My Guy - another good song - but will go to YBMTTP:
Another is Barbara Lewis' Hello Stranger.
And the great Otis Redding and Carla Thomas' ****
For long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be
I took my GPZ out for a ride, the engine felt good between my thighs.
The air felt cool, it's was forty degrees outside...
...They was arguing about football as I waved and went outside and I headed for the mountains feeling warm inside.
I love that GPZ so much, you know that I could kiss her.
--Lou Reed, "New Sensations"
Had a GPZ in my younger days, good times.
