Not the exact words, but Sister Mary is explaining that sometimes the answer to our prayers is "no," and gives an example of someone praying, "Please make my mother not crazy . . . God says no!" I was watching the movie with my GF and her crazy mother, and we were both just roaring with laughter, both having had a crazy mother and probably having asked the same thing at some point in our childhoods. Her mom was just staring at us in total bewilderment because she couldn't figure out what we thought was so funny.

Remember Red, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies.

Andy Dufresne - who crawled through a river of shit and came out clean on the other side.

You can't lose what you don't put in the middle.
[pause]
But you can't win much either.

I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty-headed animal food trough wiper! I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!

It's just a flesh wound.

But I want it now!

Vaya con Dios, Castle. Go with God.
God's going to sit this one out.

Life brings hope and pain, but revenge never brings redemption.

Remember, George: no man is a failure who has friends.

In Steve Martin's movie "The Man With Two Brains" he changes his mind about injecting a dumb blonde bombshell who's a prostitute so he can use her body to put his true love's brain in. Watch the trailer. When she asks him why he won't inject her he says it'll kill her and she say's "I don't mind" and then she decides he didn't like her voice which is a high whinny nasally screech.

The battle of stirling bridge occurred on 9/11 in 1297.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Stirling_Bridge

When Braveheart was being filmed, when asked by a local why the battle was being filmed on an open plain rather than a bridge as history records, Mel Gibson answered that "the bridge got in the way". "Aye," the local answered. "That's what the English found."

Murphy: Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace.
Connor: These are not polite suggestions. These are codes of behavior, and those of you that ignore them will pay the dearest cost.
Murphy: There are varying degrees of evil. We urge you lesser forms of filth not to push the bounds and cross over into true corruption, into our domain.
Connor: For if you do, one day you will look behind you and you will see we three. And on that day, you will reap it.
