Iconic movie quotes have become just as memorable as the movies themselves. While engaging plots or beloved characters can stick with us long after the credits roll, we often find ourselves repeating our favorite lines of dialogue.
This can be anything from memorable monologues to funny lines and catchphrases that we can introduce into our everyday dialogue.
