-Annie Hall

QUOTE OF THE DAY

""It was great seeing Annie again. I realized what a terrific person she was, and how much fun it was just knowing her; and I thought of that old joke, y'know, this guy goes to a psychiatrist and says, "Doc, my brother's crazy; he thinks he's a chicken." And the doctor says, "Well, why don't you turn him in?" The guy says, "I would, but I need the eggs." Well, I guess that's pretty much now how I feel about relationships; y'know, they're totally irrational, and crazy, and absurd but I guess we keep goin' through it because most of us need the eggs.""
- Alvy Singer (Annie Hall)

QUOTE OF THE DAY

The movie "Annie Hall" is one of my favorite romantic comedies. It's a good movie BUT an even better script. The movie falls flat from the script I think. There are so many quotes from the movie that I absolutely love but didn't have the same impact on screen that it had in written text. For the next few days, I'll use lines from this movie as my "Quote of the Day."

""The... the other important joke, for me, is one that's usually attributed to Groucho Marx; but, I think it appears originally in Freud's "Wit and Its Relation to the Unconscious," and it goes like this - I'm paraphrasing - um, "I would never want to belong to any club that would have someone like me for a member." That's the key joke of my adult life, in terms of my relationships with women.""
-Alvy Singer

QUOTE OF THE DAY

"The meek shall inherit the earth? Well...I don't think so. If by meek you mean friendly and introverted, okay maybe, but if by meek you mean unwilling to take a chance, then never. If I was a betting man and I had to wager on who I thought would inherit the earth, my money would be on the curious."
-Jim Coudal
