Charlie Sheen's final words in Platoon - I cried in the cinema when this happened.

I think now, looking back, we did not fight the enemy; we fought ourselves. And the enemy was in us. The war is over for me now, but it will always be there, the rest of my days as I'm sure Elias will be, fighting with Barnes for what Rhah called possession of my soul. There are times since, I've felt like the child born of those two fathers. But, be that as it may, those of us who did make it have an obligation to build again, to teach to others what we know, and to try with what's left of our lives to find a goodness and a meaning to this life.

In BOMBA AND THE JUNGLE GIRL (1952) Bomba (JOHNNY SHEFFIELD) asks the attractive brunette daughter of the Inspector, Linda Ward (KAREN SHARPE) :
"Why are you following me?" ( Immediately I imagined she thought "...'Cause you look good from behind...?"  )

Sean Penn as Jimmy in Mystic River:

Jimmy: Is my daughter in there? Is she in there? Is she in there?
Sean Devine: [Officer Devine approaches the melee] Hey! Hey, take it easy! That's the father.
Jimmy: Is my daughter in there?
[fighting the officers]
Jimmy: M-----------s! Is that my daughter in there? Is she in there?
[Sean gives a small nod]
Jimmy: Sean! Is that my daughter in there? Is that my daughter in there? No! No! No! No, aagggh, no! No! Oh, God! Oh, God! No!

Three Days Of The Condor

Higgins: It's simple economics. Today it's oil, right? In ten or fifteen years, food. Plutonium. Maybe even sooner. Now, what do you think the people are gonna want us to do then?
Joe Turner: Ask them?
Higgins: Not now - then! Ask 'em when they're running out. Ask 'em when there's no heat in their homes and they're cold. Ask 'em when their engines stop. Ask 'em when people who have never known hunger start going hungry. You wanna know something? They won't want us to ask 'em. They'll just want us to get it for 'em!

Oh and I've always loved this one form Van Helsing (don't judge me):

"No! I have no heart, I feel no love. Nor fear, nor joy, nor sorrow. I am hollow... and I will live forever."

Live Free Or Die Hard

John McClane: Hey, Metro, how's your day goin' over there? Yeah, you gotta be pretty, uh, crazy over there, what with all those 5-87's, huh?
Mai Lihn: Yes, sir, we've had to dispatch all units.
John McClane: Yeah, you had to dispatch all units for all the naked people walking around?

One of my favorite villain threats is from a techno-horror called Ghost in the Machine (1993)

"You can't run. You can't hide. You can't win"

A little generic, I know I just liked the way the cyber ghost delivered it.

Then there's the line the head morlock gives in the 2002 version of The Time Machine  

"We all have our time machines, don't we. Those that take us back are memories...And those that carry us forward, are dreams"

From SAVING PRIVATE RYAN:

"Earn this, Ryan.  Earn it."
