Movie Quotes: Remember the Titans...my favorite inspiration quotes

I am listing my favorite Inspirational Quotes from the Movie "Remember the Titans" staring Denzell Washington as Coach Herman Boone and Will Patton as Coach Bill Yoast, this is one of those movies that I can watch over and over again...and please if you have not watched it with the original coach Herman Boone narrating it...it is a must. The things that he says about kids and how to coach them will blow you away... at least they did me.

Here are the quotes that I liked...

Coach Boone

1. This is not a democracy. It is a dictatorship. I am the law!
   
   


2. You look like a bunch of fifth grade sissies after a cat fight! You got anger, that's good. You're gonna need it, you got aggression that's even better. You're gonna need that, too. But any little two year old child can throw a fit! Football is about controlling that anger, harnessing that aggression into a team effort to achieve perfection!
   
   


3. You're over-cooking my grits coach. Alright, I will allow Coach Tirell to coach the special teams, but I will be keeping my eye on him. And you.
   
   


4. In Greek mythology, the Titans were greater even than the gods. They ruled their universe with absolute power! Well that football field out there tonight, that's our universe. Let's rule it like Titans!
   
   


5. Now I may be a mean cuss. But I'm the same mean cuss with everybody out there on that football field. The world don't give a damn about how sensitive these kids are, especially the black kids. You ain't doin' these kids a favor by patronizing them. You're crippling them; You're crippling them for life.
   
   


6. I don't scratch my head unless it itches and I don't dance unless I hear some music. I will not be intimidated. That's just the way it is.
   
   


7. It's all right. We're in a fight. You boys are doing all that you can do. Anybody can see that. Win or lose... We gonna walk out of this stadium tonight with our heads held high. Do your best. That's all anybody can ask for.
   
   


8. Gary, if you want to play on this football team, you answer me when I ask you who's your Daddy. Who's your Daddy, Gary? Who's your Daddy?
   
   


9. And who's team is this, Gary? Is this your team? Or is this your daddy's team?
   
   


10. This is where they fought the battle of Gettysburg. Fifty thousand men died right here on this field, fighting the same fight that we are still fighting among ourselves today. This green field right here, painted red, bubblin' with the blood of young boys. Smoke and hot lead pouring right through their bodies. Listen to their souls, men. I killed my brother with malice in my heart. Hatred destroyed my family. You listen, and you take a lesson from the dead. If we don't come together right now on this hallowed ground, we too will be destroyed, just like they were. I don't care if you like each other of not, but you will respect each other. And maybe... I don't know, maybe we'll learn to play this game like men.
    
    


11. Well I'm very happy to have the approval of a 5 year old.

Favorite Movie Quotes: Glory Road

Today's Favorite Movie Quote is from the Movie, "Glory Road (2006)" starring John Lucus as Don Haskins...if you haven't seen this movie it is based on a true story based about Texas Western's Head Basketball Coach Don Haskins when he went on a pursuit to find the best basketball talent in the land... no matter if they were white or black and found 12 players, 7 blacks and 5 whites... which led to the first all-black starting lineup to the win the 1966 NCAA National Men's Basketball Championship.

Here are some of my favorite quotes from Glory Road...

Willie 'Scoops' Cager: They're trying to take our dignity away from us.
Coach Don Haskins: Your dignity's inside you. Nobody can take something away from you you don't give them.

Coach Don Haskins: [while recruiting Orsten Artis] Brother, without a little work I don't think you can get past an old timer like me
Orsten Artis: Get past you... I will go past you, through you, over you, under you, around you. As a matter of fact I will spin you like a top, twist you in a pretzel, eat your lunch, steal your girl and kick your dog at the same time... pshh get past you.

Play for you at Texas Western? Thanks Coach - but I'm partial to winning!

Famous Movie Quotes: The Green Mile

Here are a list of my favorite quotes from one of my all-time favorite movies "The Green Mile" that starred Tom Hanks as Paul Edgecomb and Michael Clarke Duncan as John Coffey... if you haven't seen it or read the book then I highly suggest that you do...it was a great watch.

Paul Edgecomb said...

• When I die and I stand before God awaiting judgment and he asks me why I let one of HIS miracles die, what am I gonna say, that it was my job?
  
  
• They usually call death row the Last Mile, but we called ours the Green Mile, because the floor was the color of faded limes. We had the electric chair then. Old Sparky, we called it. I've lived a lot of years, Ellie, but 1935 takes the prize. That was the year I had the worst urinary infection of my life. That was also the year of John Coffey and the two dead girls.
  
  
• I just can't see God putting a gift like that in the hands of a man who would kill a child.
  
  
• We'll be doing this for real tomorrow night and I don't want nobody to remember some stupid joke like that and get it going again. You ever try to not to laugh in church when something funny gets stuck in your head? Same goddamn thing.
  
  
• Seeing a man die isn't enough for you, you gotta be close enough to smell his nuts cook?
  
  

John Coffey said...

• Yes sir boss. Like the drink, only not spelled the same.
  
  
• I helped Del's mouse become a circus mouse, and go to that place Boss Howell was talking about down in...
  
  
• Do you leave a light on after bedtime? Because I get a little scared in the dark sometimes. If it's a strange place.
  
  
• Don't know. To tell the truth, Boss, I don't know much'o anything.
  
  
• You tell God the Father it was a kindness you done. I know you hurtin' and worryin', I can feel it on you, but you oughta quit on it now. Because I want it over and done. I do. I'm tired, boss. Tired of bein' on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. Tired of not ever having me a buddy to be with, or tell me where we's coming from or going to, or why. Mostly I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world everyday. There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head all the time. Can you understand?
  
  
• I dreamed he got down to that place Boss Howell talked about, that Mouseville place. I dreamed there was kids, and how they laughed at his tricks! My! I dreamed those two little blonde-headed girls were there. They 'us laughing, too. I put my arms around 'em and sat 'em on my knees, and there 'us no blood comin' outta their hair and they 'us fine. We all watch Mr. Jingles roll that spool, and how we did laugh. Fit to bust, we was.
  
  
• People hurt the ones they love. That's how it is all around the world.
  
  
• [singing as he's being strapped to the electric chair] Heaven, I'm in heaven... heaven... heaven...
