25 Most Memorable Lines in 2004 ( not in order of preference) (lifted from us.imdb.com)

1. Peter Pan
Peter: To live, would be an awfully big adventure.

2. Something's Gotta Give
Harry: Erica, you are a woman to love.

3. Cold Mountain
Ruby: They call this war a cloud over the land. But they made the weather and then they stand in the rain and say 'Shit its raining.'.

4. Kill Bill: Vol. 2
The Bride: Looked dead, didn't I? But I wasn't. But it wasn't from lack of trying, I can tell you that. Actually, Bill's last bullet put me in a coma - A coma I was to lie in for four years. When I woke up, I went on what the movie advertisements refer to as a 'roaring rampage of revenge.' I roared. And I rampaged. And I got bloody satisfaction. I've killed a hell of a lot of people to get to this point, but I have only one more. The last one. The one I'm driving to right now. The only one left. And when I arrive at my destination, I am gonna kill Bill.

5. Kill Bill: Vol. 2
Bill: I guess I overreacted.
The Bride: You OVERREACTED?

6. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Mary: How happy is the blameless Vestal's lot! / The world forgetting, by the world forgot / Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind! / Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd.

7. Shrek 2
Donkey: Just lie and say that you're wearing lady's underwear.
Pinocchio: Um, Ok. I'm wearing ladies underwear.
[silence]
Shrek: Are you wearing ladies underwear?
Pinocchio: I most certainly am not
[nose extends]
Shrek: Yeah you are.
Pinocchio: No I'm not.
[nose extends]
Shrek: What kind are you wearing?
Gingerbread Man: IT'S A THONG!

8. Troy
Messenger Boy: The Thessalonian you're fighting, he's the biggest man I've ever seen. I wouldn't want to fight him.
Achilles: That is why no one will remember your name.

9. Mean Girls
Regina: So you've never been to a real school before? Shut up! Shut up!
Cady: I didn't say anything.

10. Mean Girls
Gretchen: That was so fetch!

11. Spider-Man 2
May Parker: He knows a hero when he sees one. Too few characters like that flying out there, saving old girls like me. And Lord knows, kids like Henry need a hero. Courageous, self-sacrificing people. Setting examples for all of us. Everybody loves a hero. People line up for them, cheer them, scream their names. And years later, they'll tell how they stood in the rain for hours just to get a glimpse of the one who taught them how to hold on a second longer. I believe there's a hero in all of us, that keeps us honest, gives us strength, makes us noble, and finally allows us to die with pride, even though sometimes we have to be steady, and give up the thing we want the most. Even our dreams.

12. The Village
Ivy Walker: Sometimes we don't do what we want to do because we're afraid that other people will know that be want to do them.

13. Collateral
Vincent: Guy gets on the MTA here in L.A. and dies; think anyone will notice?

14. The Notebook
Young Noah Calhoun : You tell me when I'm being an arrogant son of a bitch, and I tell you when you're a pain in the ass, which you are, 99% of the time. I'm not afraid to hurt your feelings. You have like a two second recovery rate, and then you're on to doing the next pain in the ass thing. So it's not going to be easy; it's going to be really hard. We're going to have to work at this everyday, but I want to do that. Because I want you. I want all of you, forever, you and me, everyday.

15. Before Sunset
Celine: Memories are wonderful things, if you don't have to deal with the past.

16. Imelda
Imelda Marcos: Thank God when they went through my closets they found shoes, not skeletons.

17. Fahrenheit 9/11
Narrator: [quoting George Orwell] "It's not a matter of whether the war is not real, or if it is, Victory is not possible. The war is not meant to be won, it is meant to be continuous. Hierarchical society is only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance. This new version is the past and no different past can ever have existed. In principle the war effort is always planned to keep society on the brink of starvation. The war is waged by the ruling group against its own subjects and its object is not the victory over either Eurasia or East Asia but to keep the very structure of society intact."

18. Shattered Glass
Stephen Glass: Are you mad at me?

19. Mystic River
Dave Boyle: Maybe some day you forget what it's like to be human and maybe then, it's ok.

20. Super Size Me
Morgan Spurlock: [while consuming a double quarter-pounder supersize meal] See, now's the time of the meal when you start getting the McStomach ache. You start getting the McTummy. You get the McGurgles in there. You get the McBrick, then you get the McStomach ache. Right now I've got some McGas that's rockin'. My arms... I feel like I've got some McSweats goin'. My arms got the McTwitches going in here from all the sugar that's going in my body right now. I'm feeling a little McCrazy.

21. Lost In Translation
Premium Fantasy woman: Rip my stockings. Yes, please, rip them.
Bob: What?
Premium Fantasy woman: Rip them. HEY! Rip my stocking!
Bob: Hey? Lip them? Lip them? What?

22. In America
Mateo: No... I'm in love with you. And I'm in love with your beautiful woman. And I'm in love with your kids. And I'm even in love with your unborn child. I'm even in love with your anger! I'm in love with anything that lives!

23. The Terminal
Cab Driver: Where you wanna go?
Viktor Navorski: I am going home.

24. Alexander
Alexander: Conquer your fear, and I promise you'll conquer death.

25. The Passion of the Christ
Jesus: You have heard it said you shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy. But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. For if you love only those who love you, what reward is there in that?
