Some of my favourite film and television quotes.

From "Finding Forrester":

Jamal: Further.

Crawford: I'm sorry?

Claire:Don't.

Christian: Because she doesn't love you!

From "Pirates of the Caribbean"

Jack Sparrow: Not all treasure is silver and gold, mate.

From "Titanic"

Thomas Andrews: She is made of iron, sir, I assure you she can. And she will. It is a mathematical certainty.

I'm sure I'll be posting many more in the days to come.
