A single line can have so much power in a movie. It can make us laugh, make us think, or make us cry. It can delve profoundly into the soul, give insight into a character’s mind, provide a perfect punch of beautiful language, or be so foolish that we can’t help but repeat it endlessly.
2010 gave us many great quotes from many great movies. Here’s just a sampling of how the power of the written word was wielded this year from 10 fantastic lines that served a great deal of purposes.
