SO hard to choose, so I'm going to pick 2...
First, "Maltese Falcon."

Second, "The Untouchables."

Hardly definitive, but these are two that jumped out at me.

It's not a very famous movie quote, but one of my favorites is a line Penelope Cruz's character, "Sophia", says in the movie "Vanilla Sky": "Every passing minute is another chance to turn it all around."
I think it has to be from The Shawshank Redemption:
Red: narrating Andy Dufresne - who crawled through a river of s--t and came out clean on the other side.

Though the key phrase "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore" is at the end of this ''Network'' clip, I have all been fond of Peter Finch's entire rant. It is too bad he received his Oscar posthumously
