Oftentimes, we return from a theatre taking back a piece of the character we saw on screen or some lines just hit home for their harsh honesty and remain with us for life.

Here are a few dialogues which brutally rip the fantasy world of movies with the blade of reality:

1. "It's funny. On the outside, I was an honest man. Straight as an arrow. I had to come to prison to be a crook."

Shawshank Redemption

Giphy

2. "As you know, madness is like gravity...all it takes is a little push."

The Dark Knight

Giphy

- Joker

3. "Ernest Hemingway once wrote, 'The world is a fine place and worth fighting for', I agree with the second part."

Seven

Giphy

-William Somerset

4. "Never forget what you are, the rest of the world will not. Wear it like armor and it can never be used to hurt you."

Game of Thrones

Giphy

-Tyrion Lannister

5. "Too many guys think I'm a concept, or I complete them, or I'm gonna make them alive. But I'm just a fucked-up girl who's lookin' for my own peace of mind; don't assign me yours."

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Giphy

-Clementine Kruczynski

6. "You don't get to choose if you get hurt in this world… but you do have some say in who hurts you."

The Fault In Our Stars

Giphy

-Augustus

7. "Just because you are a character doesn't mean that you have character."

8. "I live my life a quarter mile at a time. Nothing else matters."

Fast and Furious

Giphy

-Dominic Toretto

9. "Don't fight in the North or the South. Fight every battle everywhere, always, in your mind. Everyone is your enemy, everyone is your friend. Every possible series of events is happening all at once. Live that way and nothing will surprise you."

Game Of Thrones

Giphy

-Petyr Baelish

10. "The world is not a wish granting factory."

The Fault In Our Stars

Giphy

-Augustus

11. "But you can't get away from yourself. You can't decide not to see yourself anymore. You can't decide to turn off the noise in your head."

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
