From the movie "Olympus Has Fallen"
President Asher : "We've lost good friends. Family. All good people. Heroes, every one of them. Our hearts and prayers go out to their families. And they will be remembered. Nor will we forget those who serve out of the spotlight, to whom we owe our highest gratitude. Our foe did not come only to destroy our things or our people. They came to desecrate our way of life. To foul our beliefs. Trample our freedom. And in this, not only did they fail, they granted us the greatest gift - a chance at our rebirth. We will rise renewed, stronger, and united. This is our time. Our chance to get back to the best of who we are. To lead by example with the dignity, integrity, and honor that built this country. And which will build it once again. May God bless you, and may God bless the United States of America."

I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.

"Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well to tell you the truth in all this excitement I kinda lost track myself. But being this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've gotta ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?
Dirty Harry

"Pop quiz, hotshot. There's a bomb on a bus. Once the bus goes 50 miles an hour, the bomb is armed. If it drops below 50, it blows up. What do ya do? What do ya do?"
He lacked the imagination of my Drill Instructors. At no time during the movie do I recall him addressing anyone as a "poster child for abortion" nor did he say, "Y'all sound so sweet you're making my @#$& hard."
I used to go to a bar in Oceanside, California that was favored by some recon types. Those mothers can sometimes display a complete lack of a sense of humor. One happened to be dating one of the barmaids. Some one got in an argument with her and slapped her. He did make it out alive, eventually. The Marine that stood up for his girlfriend did not have to worry about getting called into his Company Gunny's (Gunnery Sergeant) office on Monday morning because he was one of the spectators. They kind of "adopted" me since I was in administration they referred to me as "Devil Pup"
