1. “We musn't underestimate American blundering. I was with them when they blundered into Berlin in 1918.”
Claude Raines as Captain Renault, in Casablanca
2. “There's an old joke - um... two elderly women are at a Catskill mountain resort, and one of 'em says, "Boy, the food at this place is really terrible." The other one says, "Yeah, I know; and such small portions." Well, that's essentially how I feel about life - full of loneliness, and misery, and suffering, and unhappiness, and it's all over much too quickly. The... the other important joke, for me, is one that's usually attributed to Groucho Marx; but, I think it appears originally in Freud's "Wit and Its Relation to the Unconscious," and it goes like this - I'm paraphrasing - um, "I would never want to belong to any club that would have someone like me for a member." That's the key joke of my adult life, in terms of my relationships with women.”
Woody Allen, summing up the human condition and the problems with men and women in Annie Hall.
3. “ I thought all writers drank to excess and beat their wives. You know, at one time I think I secretly wanted to be a writer.”

You can leave in a taxi. If you can't get a taxi, you can leave in a huff. If that's too soon, you can leave in a minute and a huff. You know, you haven't stopped talking since I came here? You must have been vaccinated with a phonograph needle.”
Groucho Marx, in Duck Soup
