Throwback Thursday "Quotes"

I have several 

This from the 1971 film Patton the final lines, perfectly spoken by actor George C. Scott and he walked into the distance.

George Patton -

For over a thousand years Roman conquerors returning from the wars enjoyed the honor of triumph, a tumultuous parade. In the procession came trumpeteers, musicians and strange animals from conquered territories, together with carts laden with treasure and captured armaments. The conquerors rode in a triumphal chariot, the dazed prisoners walking in chains before him. Sometimes his children robed in white stood with him in the chariot or rode the trace horses. A slave stood behind the conqueror holding a golden crown and whispering in his ear a warning: that all glory is fleeting.

Warren Miller -

"If you don't do it this year, you will just be one year older when you do." 

Miller through his films convinced me to ski Vail / Beaver Creek in 1991 I haven't skied Beech Mountain since.

DEA Agent -

"We spent most the money on strippers, hookers and booze, the rest we wasted".

I'll add more as time permits but go ahead add yours:
