First, I must say excellent list. These are beautiful words. Especially the quote from Hunter Thompson. I find much of what he had to say beautiful. Second, let's leave Milander alone. And I don't mean that because I think he's an idiot for not liking these quotes just because I do. I don't. He's entitled to his opinion, and from reading one of his posts, I gather that he tends to experience beauty as a visual, not auditory thing. So, just because one person finds beauty and inspiration in words, rather than scenery, that doesn't mean that all people necessarily will or have to. But that also runs the other way, just because I think that these words are beautiful, that doesn't make me some sappy kid who knows nothing about what is "truly beautiful" in life. People are different, and I say, to each his own.

I enjoyed these quotes, thank you. "American Beauty" is a great film, I think I like the quote you chose from that movie the most.

Beautiful quotes from some very inspiring movies. Milander what does it matter that these quotes came from movies. In the beginning they had to come from someones heart and head put together. Be more optimistic....believe me our world needs more optimistic people. Everyone is entitled to their opinions...but dragging it on and on...gets old. Who knows....reading one of these quotes may have just meant the world to someone.

Well done Alchemy....you are one of many that try to make this world more beautiful and lift spirits up.

In The War Game The dead Code,

A conversation between the main actor and actress

Actress "You never give me the answer, the glass is half full or half empty."

Actor "It is of different size."

Well a new perspective on being pessimistic or Optimistic.

Just change the size of the glass, you half empty will be FULL. :)

I am always hard pressed to understand why people leave nasty comments like the ones above. I am guessing by attempting to put other people down, it somehow makes critics feel better about themselves. Truly, only unhappy people need to put other people down... And since I have no power over unhappy people when they send criticism my way, I tell them to 'bite me' and I go happily on my way. Lol

On another subject, here is an inspirational quote of my own:

Milander
One of these certainly not written by a Hollywood script writer, the quote from Fear and Loathing is written by the Gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson. He was an amazing person but he eventually committed suicide, but he still saw something beautiful in the world.

@ Joel, I consider my wife and children to be beautiful. Words may be sweet and heartfelt when written or spoken with true feeling but these are no substitute as they are words written for the purpose of evoking a feeling or emotion from an audience, anyone (within reason) can write such prose. The quotes above feel sticky, extremely trite and overmuch, they feel false as no real person would ever say such things except actors.

On the other hand "beauty is in the eye of the beholder", if you feel they are beautiful, as do many other commenters, then who am I to argue? All I can say is that they are not beautiful to me, they do not stir my, perhaps cynical, heart and neither do I feel they are good examples of the best "movie quotes that will touch your heart". The whole point of a movie is imagery not language anyway, Images have moved my heart in a movie, the scripts, usually ripped off from a book, have
not.

You can try this yourself and I invite you to do so...

Watch your fav film with the sound off, subtitles allowed of course, then watch it again with just the sound playing, no images, easy to do if you have a hooked up sound system. Then compare the two experiences, I'm sure you'll find that it is the visual experience over the sound experience that moves you the most... or maybe I'm wrong?

Either way, we may just have a difference of opinion. Friends? :-)

This is why I love movies - and I do to almost an obsessive degree.
Excellent list. Here is my addition -

Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?

Nicely done.

One of my favorites is from Grosse Point Blank.

Many thanks for the list. Hope you like this one

From the film Harvey.

Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be," - she always called me Elwood - "In this world, you must be oh so smart, or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me.

Milander I'm curious, what do you consider to be beautiful, if not these quotes?

Re: 11 Enlightening movie quotes that will touch your Heart

Milander — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 05:50:29 -0000

Thanks for the comments and all but, sorry, still a load of old sentimental twaddle to me. All written by some alcoholic hollywood script writer to make a fast buck off of your emotions.... as for trying to live my life by them, hahahahahaahahaha!

not trolling btw

Milander.... maybe your life is so bad is because you dont follow these quotes. They are posted here... they are written and they are a great way to live... married, not married... divorced...sick and dying or dancing under the moonlight.As they say... You don't stop playing because you grow old... you grow old because you stop playing.

One step to practice is to polish your jade....

Dwight / Powerful Thoughts — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 00:00:53 -0000

One of my favorite quotes from Norman McLean via Robert Redford and "A River Runs Through It."

Each one of here today will at one time in our lives look upon a loved one who is in need and ask the same question: We are willing help, Lord, but what, if anything, is needed? For it is true we can seldom help those closest to us. Either we don't know what part of ourselves to give or, more often than not, the part we have to give is not wanted. And so it those we live with and should know who elude us. But we can still love them - we can love completely without complete understanding.

you might want to acknowledge the fact that the quote from coach carter is actually from a book called A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of "A Course in Miracles" by Marianne Williamson, so in reality, its not a movie quote, but a reference to a great writer
