        Huh, did not expect that memes and captioned image responses would outnumber typed text... fascinating. I still think of my favorite lines as lines first and organic parts of visual scenes second.

        I personally like short monologues by powerful characters that later turn out to be insincere hypocrisy, like this daniel day lewis speech from there will be blood (I haven't watched the movie, but know the plot)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHz-zZoBnbc …
