The Jerk was quite possibly the greatest movie ever made closely followed by The Man With Two Brains and right after that, My Cousin Vinnie.
There is no debate there....but
"Leave the gun, take the cannolis"
...is one of the coolest movie lines ever spoken...after a few from The Maltese Falcon and maybe another one or two from Casablanca...but then there's always Animal House?

Sigh... I feel like I'm not getting most of these, either because I am unenlightened or because they predate me. My favorite quote is from gladiator-
"what we do in life echoes in eternity." |

And so, after 6 years of latin, I gotta make Mrs. Fitz proud. I love you mrs. fitz, wherever you may be right now.
In vino is the ablative of place where, designating a position in a prepositional phase. Here it means "in wine" Veritas is a 3rd declension nominative singular noun meaning "truth" An english rendition reads something like "there is truth in wine." This dates back to popular roman culture of the cena - or 3 course dinner often enjoyed by aristocrats in the roman household. as they would party and recline, some would get wasted, and speak things they probably shouldn't have said that were none the less truthful. A more modern equivalent is "a drunk mans words are a sober man's thoughts"
THe second phrase is a bit more difficult, because it doesn't make sense literally translated. Age is a 3rd conjugation latin verb in the 2nd person singular imperative meaning "DO or MAKE" quod is an interogative particle meaning "which" and in this case it acts as an interogative pronoun- which allows us to render it "that which". Agis is a 2nd person , 3rd conjugation singular verb meaning "you are doing, you do, you do do" - the 3rd phrase incidentally is not a typo, it is the present perfect- denoting action that is completed but still occuring, inferring previous accomplishments in whatever it is that was done. All that said, when put together it reads "DO THAT WHICH YOU ARE DOING" What we would said in english is- attend to your business. In the latin gladitorial arena, the slaves that cleaned the colosseum floors were often told this as there are records of engravings instructing slaves to "make swift about your business." stated by the phrase age quod agis.
Well well, that brings back the good old days.. God i love latin. Too bad I'm a molec bio major so not really time for it here at college. Anyway thanks for reading, or if you skipped this, thanks for at least glancing at what "those weird latin words were a few posts back"
Good night, (well actually good morning).

Being 19, many of these most definitely predate you, but here is a short list of the movies being quoted (in no particular order):
The Jerk
Stripes
Monty Python & The Holy Grail
Princess Bride
Top Gun
Star Wars
Mel Brooks History of the World Part I |

"I ought to be thou Adam, but rather i'm thou fallen angel whom thou drivest from joy. I was benevelont and good; misery made me a fiend. Make me happy and I shall once again be virtuous."
Scary thing is, I know this off by heart. :) |

"They call this war a cloud over the land. Then they stand in the cloud and say "it's raining!""
Different one...
"Imagine you're a deer. You're prancing around. You get thirsty. You spot a little brook. You put your little deer lips down to the cool, clear water - BAM. A fuckin' bullet rips off part of your head. Your brains are lying on the ground in little bloody pieces. Now I aks you, do you give a fuck what kind of pants the son-of-a-bitch who shot you was wearing? "
One more from same as above....
"Perhaps the laws of physics cease to exist on your stove. Were these magic grits? Did you buy them from the same guy who sold Jack his beanstalk beans?" |
