"The unconditional surrender of Germany has just been announced. At midnight tonight, the war is over. Tomorrow you'll begin the process of looking for survivors of your families. In most cases... you won't find them. After six long years of murder, victims are being mourned throughout the world. We've survived. Many of you have come up to me and thanked me. Thank yourselves. Thank your fearless Stern, and others among you who worried about you and faced death at every moment. I am a member of the Nazi Party. I'm a munitions manufacturer. I'm a profiteer of slave labor. I am... a criminal. At midnight, you'll be free and I'll be hunted. I shall remain with you until five minutes after midnight, after which time - and I hope you'll forgive me - I have to flee."

Yep :) Great movie. Blunthead, you obviously haven't seen it, but you should.

Next quote, the *** replace the name of the city in question, otherwise I'm really giving it away:

"
'Tomorrow the world will watch in horror as its greatest city destroys itself. The movement back to harmony will be unstoppable this time'

'You attacked *** before?'

'Of course. Over the ages, our weapons have grown more sophisticated. With ***, we tried a new one: Economics. But we underestimated certain of ***'s citizens... such as your parents. Gunned down by one of the very people they were trying to help. Create enough hunger and everyone becomes a criminal. Their deaths galvanized the city into saving itself... and *** has limped on ever since. We are back to finish the job. And this time no misguided idealists will get in the way. Like your father, you lack the courage to do all that is necessary. If someone stands in the way of true justice... you simply walk up behind them and stab them in the heart.'

"

"...The Chief voted! Now will you please turn on the television set?

...the meeting was adjourned and the vote was closed.

...But the vote was 10 to 8. The Chief, he's got his hand up! Look!

No... When the meeting was adjourned, the vote was 9 to 9.

Aw come on, you're not gonna say that now! You're not gonna say that now! You're gonna pull that hen house ****? Now when the vote... the Chief just voted - it was 10 to 9. Now I want that television set turned on right now!"

It's from Akira. Here's another one.
"Oh, Agent Starling, you think you can dissect me with this blunt little tool?"
"No! I thought that your knowledge..."
"You're so ambitious, aren't you? You know what you look like to me with your good bag and your cheap shoes? You look like a rube. A well-scrubbed, hustling rube, with a little taste. Good nutrition's given you some length of bone, but you're not more than one generation from poor white trash, are you, Agent Starling? And that accent you've tried so desperately to shed, pure West Virginia. What is your father, dear? Is he a coal miner? Does he stink of the lamp? And oh, how quickly the boys found you, all those tedious sticky fumblings in the back seats of cars, while you could only dream of getting out, getting anywhere... getting all the way to the F. B. I!"

For someone who hates rudeness (I'm talking about Hannibal Lecter here, NOT Connor B.) and actually eats people that are rude to him, this really is a rather rude way of introducing himself to Agent Starling. Just sayin'......

What do you think of the other line:

"I, on the other hand, cannot..."

In response to what his next door cell mate said to Agent Starling as she walked by.

(but now we are getting sidetracked and the thread is getting derailed).

Oh dear - I messed it up - it is:
"I see. I myself cannot. You use Evyan skin cream, and sometimes you wear L'Air du Temps, but not today."
