The Princess Bride:
"He'll pinch my cheek, I hate that."-Grandson
"Maybe he won't."-Mom
Grandfather-"Are you kidding? Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles..."
Grandson-"Doesn't sound too bad. I'll try and stay awake."
Grandfather-"Oh, well thank you very much. It's very nice of you. Your vote of confidence is overwhelming."
Vizzini-(repeated line)"Inconceivable!"
Inigo Montoya-"I do not mean to pry, but you don't by any chance happen to have six fingers on your right hand?"
Westley-"Do you always begin a conversation this way?"
Fezzik-"I did that on purpose. I didn't have to miss."
Westley-"I believe you. So what happens now?"
Fezzik-"We face each other as God intended. Sportmanslike. No tricks, no weapons. Skill against skill alone."
Westley-"You mean, you'll put down your rock and I'll put down my sword, and we'll try and kill each other like civilized people?"
Fezzik-"I could kill you now."
Westley-"Frankly, I think the odds are slightly in your favor at hand fighting."
Fezzik-"It's not my fault being the biggest and the strongest. I don't even exercise."
Westley-"Look, are you just fiddling around with me or what?"
Fezzik-"I just want you to feel you are doing well. I hate for people to die embarrassed. You're quick."
Westley-"Good thing too."
Fezzik-"Why are you wearing a mask? Were you burned with acid, or something like that?"
Westley-"Oh no, it's just they're terribly comfortable. Everyone should be wearing one in the future." (not sure if that's the exact line. Close as I can come.)
Buttercup-"If you'll release me, whatever you ask for ransom, you'll get it I promise you!"
Westley-"And what is that worth, the promise of a woman? You're very funny, Highness."
Buttercup-"I was giving you a chance. It's no matter where you take me, there's no greater hunter than Prince Humperdinck. He can track a falcon on a cloudy day, he can find you."
Westley-"You think your dearest love will save you?"
Buttercup-"I never said he was my dearest love. And yes, he will save me, that I know."
Westley-"You admit to me you do not love your fiancee."
Buttercup-"He knows I do not love him."
Westley-"Are not capable of love is what you mean."
Buttercup-''I have loved more deeply than a killer like yourself could ever dream!"
Westley-"That was a warning Highness. The next time my hand flies on its own, where I come from there are penalties when a woman lies."
Buttercup-"I know who you are, your cruelty reveals everything. You're the Dread Pirate Roberts, admit it!"
Westley-"With pride. What can I do for you?"
Buttercup-"You can die slowly cut into a thousand pieces."
Westley-(makes sounds with his mouth)"Hardly complimentary, Highness. Why are you so venom on me?"
Buttercup-"You killed my love."
Westley-"It's possible. I kill a lot of people. Who was this love of yours? Another prince like this one? Ugly, rich, scabby?"
Buttercup-"No, a farmboy, poor. Poor and perfect. With eyes like the sea after a storm. On the high seas your ship attacked, the Dread Pirate Roberts never takes prisoners!"
Westley-"I can't afford to make exceptions. I mean once word has leaked out that a pirate has gone soft, people begin to disobey them and then it's nothing but work, work, work all the time!"
Buttercup-"You mock my pain!"
Westley-"LIfe is pain, Highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something. I remember this farmboy of yours I think... This would be what, five years ago? Does it bother you to hear?"
Buttercup-"Nothing you can say will upset me."
I'll stop there. I guess you can say I really like The Princess Bride.
