It wasn't THAT hard, was it?

Posted on 07:37 by retino
 Well, here are the answers to last Friday's Quotes Quiz. Apparently this game was so hard that none of y'all wanted to play it! But that's alright. I guess I didn't realize I had made it so tricky, and I apologize! Personally I think some of these are really great quotes, though, so I hope you enjoy reading them! : )

Quote #1
   Aunt Juley: All the Shlegels are exceptional. They are British to the backbone, of course, but their father was German, which is why they care for literature and art.

   Answer: Howard's End (1992)


Quote #2
   Trainmaster: What are you fixin' on doin'?
    Jim Younger: I ain't fixin' on doin' nothin', I'm doin' it!


Answer: The Long Riders (1980)


Quote #3
   Sir Richard Carlisle: I'm leaving in the morning, Lady Grantham. I doubt we'll see each other again.

   Charlotte Selton: You have done nothing for which you should be ashamed.

    Reginald Anson: Well, we've made measurements with those two hills, and we already know the height of Newton Beacon and Whitchurch hill....

Answer: Wives and Daughters (1998)


Quote #9
   Lancelot: This is not Rome's fight. It is not your fight. All these long years we've been together, the trials we've faced, the blood we've shed....What was it all for, if not for the reward of freedom? And now when we are so close! When it is finally within our grasp-- look at me! Does it all count for nothing?


Answer: King Arthur (2004)

Quote #10
    William Wilberforce: That winter, we should have won. With the evidence we had collected, by natural justice we should have won.

Answer: Amazing Grace (2006)

Quote #12
   2nd Lieutenant William Bush: My uncle was a blacksmith. I know what happens when metal overheats.
    3rd Lieutenant Horatio Hornblower: I believe they call it the co-efficient of expansion.
    Lieutenant Bush: I call it bloody dangerous.

Have a wonderful day and God bless! : )
