We've had a line from I and III so we might as well go the full hog with one from II.

There are many things my father taught me here in this room. He taught me: keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.

Opening lines from a beauty of a film just about to start on Film4.

Once upon a time, there was a quiet little village in the French countryside whose people believed in Tranquilite - Tranquility. If you lived in this village, you understood what was expected of you. You knew your place in the scheme of things. And if you happened to forget, someone would help remind you. In this village, if you saw something you weren't supposed to see, you learned to look the other way. if perchance your hopes had been disappointed, you never learned to ask for more. So through good times and bad, famine and feast, the villagers held fast to their traditions. Until, one winter day, a sly wind blew in from the North......

It's a Wonderful Life

Clarence: Your brother, Harry Bailey, broke through the ice and was drowned at the age of nine.

George Bailey: That's a lie! Harry Bailey went to war! He got the Congressional Medal of Honor! He saved the lives of every man on that transport!

Clarence: Every man on that transport died! Harry wasn't there to save them, because you weren't there to save Harry. You see George, you've really had a wonderful life. Don't you see what a mistake it would be to just throw it away?

Walsh : Why?Cos it taste's good
Mardukas : But it's not good for you
Walsh : I'm aware of that
Mardukas : Well why would you do something that you know is not good for you?
Walsh : Cos I don't think about it
Mardukas : Well that's living in denial
Walsh : Living in denial?
Mardukas : Yeh
Walsh : I'm aware of that
Mardukas : So your aware of all your behaviour yet continue to do things that aren't good for you,that sound's sort of foolish don't you think so Jack?
Walsh : No.Stealing $15,000,000 off Jimmy Serrano sound's foolish
Mardukas : I didn't think I'd get caught
Walsh : Now that's living in denial
Mardukas : I'm aware of that
Walsh : Oh so your aware of your behaviour and yet you continue to do things that aren't good for you,sound's kind of foolish to me don't you think so John?

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. C beams glittering in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All these moments will be lost in time like tears in the rain. Time to die.

From the same film.
