We watched DPS in third and fifth form English. One of our teachers used to have this quote on her wall:

We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, "O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless... of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?" Answer: that you are here; that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?

We watched it for English too! It was really interesting pulling the movie and characters apart. I still cry when Neil dies.

Oh here's a bit that makes me laugh though:

Hopkins: [reading his poem] "The cat sat on the mat"
John Keating: Congratulations, Mr. Hopkins. You have the first poem to ever have a negative score on the Pritchard scale.

DPS is so quotable - I'll admit that I tried standing on a desk after watching that film once, just for a new perspective on things.

Anyway what's your excuse for being awake at 3 am? I'm meant to be studying for exams and am instead downloading a BBC doco on British history.

Haha I never actually considered doing that, I'm so going to stand on a desk now. I can't stand on the one in my room as its side is hanging on for dear life, and I'm not going to act as if I'm light as a feather!

Dammit I've been caught out being up at a ridiculous hour. I am meant to be sleeping, and my neck is not appreciating being in the position it is in my bed. I had a 24 take home exam that I finished at 5pm so you'd think I'd be dead by now! When's your last exam? Mines 22nd, my birthday!

I'm sick and have been coughing up blood today so I don't think I'll be getting to sleep at any sort of reasonable hour. I don't think I'll be getting any study done either.

My last is on the 26th and I can't wait... this semester has been such a drag and I want to go home!

Tombstone is always a classic.
Doc Holliday: In vino veritas.
Johnny Ringo: Age quod agis.
Doc Holliday: Credat Judaeus apella, non ego.
Johnny Ringo: Eventus stultorum magister.
Doc Holliday: In pace requiescat.
Tombstone Marshal Fred White: Come on boys. We don't want any trouble in here. Not in any language.
Doc Holliday: Evidently Mr. Ringo's an educated man. Now I really hate him.

The Big Lebowski (my favorite line):
The Dude: That rug really tied the room together.

The Weather Man.
Dave Spritz: Man, I'd like to put my face in there. Right in there. Tartar sauce. My hips are cold. Tartar sauce. That's when you know its cold. I like eating *****. Tartar sauce. A lot of guys don't. Well maybe they do. Maybe that's just black guys. Tartar sauce. What happened to the guy who was trying to fly around the world in a balloon? Did he make it? I should put some espionage or stolen plutonium in my novel. Tartar sauce. Spice it up. Neil Young. ****, its cold. Neil Young. Wh-why am I thinking about Neil Young. Neil Diamond. Neil... Theres not a lot of famous Neils. Is this Wednesday? I wish I had two ****s. I thought the whole family was going to learn Spanish together this year. That never really happened. I haven't had a Spanish omelette in a long time. Here we go.

Dave Spritz: I mean, I'll bet no one ever threw a pie at, like Harriet Tubman, the founder of the Underground railroad. I'll bet you a million ****ing dollars.

"This car is property of the World Bank! That money goes to Italy!.... You people voted for Hubert Humphery! And you killed Jesus!"

Attorney: "What the ****? What the **** are we doing out here in the middle of the god-damn desert? We need.. We need HELP!! Heeheeeheeheeheeheeheee.......... The truth......"
HST: "Truth?"
Attorney: "We're going to Vegas to croak a scag baron named Savage Henry."
HST: "It's true."
Attorney: "See, I've known him for years, but he ripped us off.."
HST: "And you know what that means."
Attorney: "And you know what that means."
HST: "It means we're going to cut his lungs out... and eat them."
Attorney: "That means Savage Henry has cashed his check."

Alot of Tombstone fans in here, eh??

"WHY JOHNNY TYLER!!! The mad calf!! Where ya goin' with that shotgun?"

"Very cosmopolitan.."

"Why Ike?!! Whatever do you mean? Why Ike, does this mean that we are not friends anymore? You know, Ike. If I were to believe that you and I were no longer friends... I just don't think I could bear it."

"Perhaps Pharaoh just ain't your game. I know! Let's have a spelling contest!"

"You're no daisy! You're no daisy at all!.... Oh, poor soul... You were just too... high strung."

"Then again darlin', you may be the Anti-Christ."

All about the Doc.
