Answer: When Harry Met Sally

Harry and Sally meet right after they graduate from university, when she gives him a ride to New York. This conversation occurs during the car ride, ensuring that they won't be seeing much of each other once they arrive in New York. Over the years they do keep bumping into each other, and end up falling in love.
Rob Reiner directed this funny film that also starred Carrie Fisher and Bruno Kirby.
2. (1987) "Sonny, true love is the greatest thing in the world, except for a nice MLT - mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is lean and the tomato is ripe. They're so perky...I love that." - Miracle Max (Billy Crystal), talking over the 'mostly dead' body of Westley (Cary Elwes).

Answer: The Princess Bride

Also directed by Rob Reiner, "The Princess Bride" is a classic fairy tale, romance/adventure that proves that true love can surmount anything. Thought to be dead when captured by pirates, Westley returns to rescue his true love from the horrible Prince Humperdinck.

When Humperdinck kills Westley, Inigo and Fezzik take him to Miracle Max to bring him back to life. This is when Max delivers the above quote.

Answer: Twister

Bill Harding has been unable to get his ex to sign the divorce papers, so he and his fiancee decide to visit her at work. However his ex is a storm chaser, one of those crazy scientists who risk life and limb as they try to gain a better understanding of tornadoes. Bill finds himself drawn back into the thrill of the chase, and soon nothing is cut and dried anymore.

This line is spoken to Bill's fiancee by one of the storm-chasing crew, in an effort to educate her while Bill speaks to his ex (played by Helen Hunt) about getting the papers signed.
4. (1997) "You make me want to be a better man." - Melvin Udall (Jack Nicholson) "That's maybe the best compliment of my life." - Carol O'Connelly (Helen Hunt) "Well maybe I overshot a little, because I was aiming at just enough to keep you from walking out." - Melvin The film also stars Greg Kinnear.

Answer: As Good As It Gets

Melvin is an obsessive compulsive, and Carol is the only waitress who can serve him to his satisfaction. When Carol misses a lot of work because of her son's sickness, Melvin steps in to help with her son, so she can get back to work. However he ends up falling in love. This exchange takes place when they are out for dinner, and Carol is ready to get up and walk out on him.
Kinnear plays Melvin's neighbour whose misfortunes touch Carol's heart, and end up helping Melvin make great strides in becoming more pleasant.
5. (2000) "He also works at Loma Vista." - Betty Sizemore (Renee Zellwegger) "What is that?" - Chief Nurse Iris Foster "It's the really pretty area with the palm trees out front and the mountains in the background." - Betty Sizemore "You've just described all of southern California." - Chief Nurse Iris Foster This film also stars Greg Kinnear and Morgan Freeman.

Answer: Nurse Betty

After seeing her husband brutally murdered, Betty Sizemore literally hides within her favourite soap opera. She believes herself to be one of the characters from the show, and sets out to find her fiancé (a doctor from the same show, played by Greg Kinnear). Meanwhile, her husband's killers (played by Morgan Freeman and Chris Rock) are following her.

They are in pursuit of the trunk load of drugs that her husband stole, and she doesn't know that she has. This exchange occurs between Betty and a real Chief Nurse, as Betty tries to locate the hospital where her 'doctor' fiancé works. Of course the hospital is as fictional as the fiancé.
6. (1994) "In 1966 Andy Dufresne escaped from Shawshank Prison. All they found of him was a muddy set of prison clothes, a bar of soap, and an old rock hammer..." - Red (Morgan Freeman) This movie also stars Tim Robbins as Andy Dufresne.

Answer: The Shawshank Redemption

Wrongfully convicted of murdering his wife and her lover, Andy Dufresne spends 20 years being the model prisoner, while helping to make life easier for the other prisoners. Meanwhile he is slowly and meticulously tunneling his way out of prison, a feat which takes him most of the 20 years.
Fellow prisoner and friend, Red, serves as a narrator throughout most of the movie. This quote is part of Red's narration after Andy makes good his escape.
7. (2003) "My daughter was murdered. They put a gun to her. As we stand here, she's on an autopsy slab getting cut open by scalpels and chest spreaders, and you're talking to me about domestic responsibility? Good to see you Theo." - Jimmy Markham (Sean Penn) This movie also stars Tim Robbins and Kevin Bacon.

Answer: Mystic River

A car, carrying two child molesters, picks one boy up off of the street, leaving his two friends behind. Years later, the same three people (men now, not boys any longer), are drawn together through another act of violence, the murder of one of their daughters.
This quote occurs shortly after Jimmy's daughter (from his first marriage) is found murdered. Theo, Jimmy's father-in-law has decided to give Jimmy a little lecture on not forgetting his responsibilities to his wife and two remaining children.
8. (1995) "Houston, we are venting something out into space. I can see outside window one right now. It's definitely a...a gas of some sort. It's got to be the oxygen." - Jim Lovell (Tom Hanks) This film also stars Kevin Bacon and Gary Sinise.

Answer: Apollo 13

Ron Howard's film about the ill-fated Apollo 13 moon mission tells the true story of a nearly fatal disaster in space, where an explosion in an oxygen tank crippled the ship, and made it very difficult to get the astronauts home alive.
This quote occurs shortly after the explosion, when astronaut Jim Lovell was reporting on what he could see out of the window of the command module.
9. (1998) "I'm betting that the redhead you followed is the same person who told Tyler to throw the fight - she's one. Shooter's two, Tyler's three, the drunk who shouted the signal is four, and whoever was on the other end of that radio is five. Five people make a conspiracy, right?" - Rick Santoro (Nicolas Cage) This film also starred Gary Sinise.

Answer: Snake Eyes

It's the night of the heavyweight boxing championship, and corrupt cop Rick Santoro is having a great time...until someone assassinates the Secretary of Defense, who was attending the fight. Rick finds himself in charge of the investigation, and works harder than normal to help clear his friend, Commander Kevin Dunne, who was in charge of the Senator's security.
This quote occurs when Rick starts to put the pieces together, and realizes that the assassination was definitely a conspiracy, involving quite a few people, but before he realizes that his friend was part of the conspiracy.
10. (1998) "I would rather have had one breath of her hair, one kiss from her mouth, one touch of her hand, than eternity without it...one." - Seth (Nicolas Cage) This film also stars Meg Ryan as Maggie.

Answer: City of Angels

Nicolas Cage plays one of the many angels that surround us at all times, according to the premise of the film. While waiting in an operating room to help escort the patient to Heaven, Cage connects with the surgeon, played by Meg Ryan. An interesting friendship soon blossoms into romance, and Cage chooses mortality, in order to be with his newfound love.
This quote occurs near the end of the movie, after Maggie is killed riding her bike, leaving Cage alone and very much mortal.
