5 Fav Kubrick Scenes/Lines

[Derek C. Maus]

1. "Gentlemen, you can't fight in here...this is the war room!"
(Pres. Merkin Muffley in _Dr. Strangelove_)

2. "There is no racial bigotry here. I do not look down on niggers, kikes,
wops or greasers. Here, you are all equally worthless." (Sgt. Hartman
in _Full Metal Jacket_)

OR

2a. "Son, all I've ever asked of my marines is that they obey my orders as
they would the word of God. We are here to help the Vietnamese, because
inside every gook there is an American trying to get out. It's a hardball
world, son. We've gotta keep our heads until this peace craze blows over."
(Joker's Commanding Officer in VietNam in _FMJ_)

3. "Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do. I'm half crazy all for the love
of you. It won't be a stylish marriage, I can't afford a carriage. But
you'll look sweet upon the seat of a bicycle built for two." (HAL in
_2001: A Space Odyssey_)

4. Lloyd the Bartender: "Is something on your mind, Mr. Torrance?"
   Jack: "Oh it's nothing...just a little trouble with the old sperm-bank
   upstairs"
   (_The Shining_)

5. "You and I have a tendency towards corpulence. Corpulence makes a man
reasonable, pleasant and phlegmatic. Have you noticed the nastiest of
tyrants are invariably thin?" (Gracchus in _Spartacus_)
