Love Actually: "Let's go get the shit kicked out of us by love."
I love that quote because that's what love is really about - diving in, making yourself vulnerable to what will either kick the shit out of you, or turn into the most wonderful thing you'll ever have. It's a gamble but it's worth it.
Best line ever - my boys use it all the time: "We elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns and syrup." From Elf with Will Ferrell
Joseph: I'm going to buy them their Christmas turkey. Albert: "Buy"? Do you really mean "buy"? Joseph: Yes, buy! In the Spirit of Christmas. The hard part's going to be stealing the money to pay for it.
"And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store? What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?
"Charlie Brown, you're the only person I know who can take a wonderful season like Christmas and turn it into a problem. Maybe Lucy's right. Of all the Charlie Browns in the world, you're the Charlie Browniest."
"I beat the (poop) out of some kids today. But it was for a purpose. It made me feel good about myself. It was like I did something constructive with my life or something, I dunno, like I accomplished something."
My absolute favorite courtesy of Clark W. Griswold: "Where do you think you're going? Nobody's leaving. Nobody's walking out on this fun, old-fashioned family Christmas. No, no. We're all in this together. This is a full-blown, four-alarm holiday emergency here. We're gonna press on, and we're gonna have the hap, hap, happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap-danced with Danny f***ing Kaye. And when Santa squeezes his fat white a** down that chimney tonight, he's gonna find the jolliest bunch of a**holes this side of the nuthouse." From "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation"

Donner: Alright, son, try it on. Rudolph: I don't want to, Daddy. I don't like it. Donner: You'll like it and wear it! Rudolph: But Daddy, it's not very comfortable! Donner: There are more important things than comfort: self respect! Santa can't object to you now.
'Now, I had heard that word at least ten times a day from my old man. He worked in profanity the way other artists might work in oils or clay. It was his true medium; a master."
Santa Claus: Don't cry, Karen, Frosty's not gone for good. You see, he was made out of Christmas snow and Christmas snow can never disappear completely. It sometimes goes away for almost a year at a time and takes the form of spring and summer rain. But you can bet your boots that when a good, jolly December wind kisses it, it will turn into Christmas snow all over again.
"I want to look him straight in the eye and I want to tell him what a cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, four-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, dickless, hopeless, heartless, fat-ass, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed sack of monkey s**t he is! Hallelujah! Holy s**t! Where's the Tylenol?"
I love Clark Griswold, don't you? Merry Christmas!
Dude...you so need to become a coffee snob. It becomes so much fun to be sad every morning because the coffee is never good enough. claire and I find it so rewarding!
Charlie Brown: Isn't there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about? Linus Van Pelt: Sure, Charlie Brown, I can tell you what Christmas is all about.
"And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, 'Fear not: for behold, I bring unto you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the City of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.' And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God, and saying, 'Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.'" That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.
I also love the Christmas story but I think I might love Christmas Vacation more.
My quote is from Christmas Vacation:
Eddie: You surprised to see us, Clark? Clark: Oh, Eddie... If I woke up tomorrow with my head sewn to the carpet, I wouldn't be more surprised than I am now.
We answer the phone randomly throughout the year: "Buddy the Elf, what's your favorite color?"
as for my personal favorite... from Nestor the Long Eared Christmas Donkey... right before the snow covers them, his mom reminds him to tuck in his ears... "Ears, Nestor." and with that.. sighs... well, i love that movie
I am not a coffee connoisseur(Con-nus-sore...must be French) but I do like a good cup of coffee... or three. I think one of those machines would be pretty spiffy (old school nerd) and I like the environmentally (En-viron-ment-ally. Must be Hippy) friendly disks, too.
From "It's A Wonderful Life" --
George Bailey: What is it you want, Mary? What do you want? You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down. Hey. That's a pretty good idea. I'll give you the moon, Mary.
Mary: I'll take it. Then what?
George Bailey: Well, then you can swallow it, and it'll all dissolve, see... and the moonbeams would shoot out of your fingers and your toes and the ends of your hair... am I talking too much?
This isn't really my favorite Christmas movie, but I love the sentiment of the line - "Seeing isn't believing. Believing is seeing," from The Santa Clause.
My favorite holiday movie quote is from 'Elf,' and I think it's my favorite because it's appropriate for so many situations (or maybe I just like to say it for so many situations)(I can be annoying like that) - "You sit on a throne of lies!"
Randy: Meatloaf, smeatloaf, double-beatloaf. I hate meatloaf.
The Old Man: All right, I'll get that kid to eat. Where's my screw driver and my plumber's helper? I'll open up his mouth and I'll shove it in
This is my favorite line from A Christmas Story. It's my favorite Christmas movie. My little brother was the skinniest,pickiest kid ever and earned himself the nickname Randy because of it. He's 16 now and he answers to his real name and Randy still...
Wow how do you get to test coffee makers? what a deal! I am in a panic to remember a movie line. I would love a new coffee maker especially since mine cost $5 at the Goodwill and that's hippy too.

Buddy: Well, if you're Santa, what song did I sing for you on your birthday this year?
Gimbel's Santa: Um, Happy Birthday of course. Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. How old are you son?
Kid with Santa: Four.
Gimbel's Santa: You're a big boy. What's your name?
Kid with Santa: Paul.
Gimbel's Santa: Now what can I get you for Christmas?
Buddy: Don't tell him what you want, he's a liar.
Gimbel's Santa: Let the kid talk.
Buddy: You disgust me! How can you live with yourself?
Gimbel's Santa: Just cool it, Zippy.
Buddy: You sit on a throne of lies.
Gimbel's Santa: Look, I'm not kiddin'.
Buddy: You're a fake.
Gimbel's Santa: I'm a fake?
Buddy: Yes!
