Favorite Monty Python Lines and Bits
I ran a search, and the only thread I found specified for Monty Python and the Holy Grail, whereas I was thinking Monty Python in general. If I should have just stuck in the HG thread, feel free to close this one.
Anyway, what are your favorite lines from all of the Works of Monty Python? I'll list a few here: Flying Circus: -A lion is a great, savage beat about five feet high, ten feet long, and looks like this. -AH! -You bastards! You vicious, heartless bastards! -I'd like to answer this question in two ways, if I may: First, in my normal voice, and then in a sort of silly high-pitched whine. -There's a scream (AHH!!), somebody shoots you...(bang!) -Nobody expects the Sp...Oh, bugger! -A nice...*licks lips* juicy mouse. -Dinsdale may have been a criminal, but he only did what all of us dream of doing....He was a looney, but a happy looney. Lucky bastard... -He knew how to treat a female impersonator. -Dinsdale? -I'd tax all foreigners living abroad. -Is it dead? -Well, it was coughin' up blood last night. -This is an ex-parrot -I'd put on women's clothing, and hang around in bars! I wish I'd been a girlie, just like my dear Papar! Okay, I'll stop there, and go on to the Holy Grail! -I'm inivincible! - Please, please, this is supposed to be a 'appy ocassion! Let's not bicker and argue about 'oo killed 'oo. -But Mother... -Father, son. -But Father... -Listen, Alice... -Herbert. -Herbert. -Brave Sir Robin ran away... And to top it off, what was your favorite "And now for something completely different"?

I loved in the Holy Grail where they use the coconut shells to make horse noises. And the brave Sir Robin bit!! But also in the life of Brian where they're talking about what the Romans did for us. Hee hee!

Just a note, there is nothing more annoying than a couple of people that go around talking in "Monty Python" to each other. I remember a group of guys who got stuck in "MP land" and couldn't seem to get out. People who didn't have all the dialogue memorized sort of thought they were .....idiots! Still, It's tempting, I know.

Random character: "I didn’t expect the Spanish Inquisition!"
John Cleese: "No one expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise, fear, and surprise… our TWO main weapons are surprise, fear, and ruthless efficiency… our THREE main weapons are fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope – oh. AMONGST our weaponry are such diverse elements as fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope and nice red uniforms…-"

You know: it really bugs me when people claim to like Monty Python, and yet only seem to know quotes from the Holy Grail. HG is one of their least funny moments.
Btw: there's already quite a few threads on Monty Python already.

Yeah, but I did a search, the only one which was similar to what I thinking of specified that it was for HG.
And I wouldn't say it was one of their least funny moments...but Flying Circus does rule.

http://entmoot.tolkientrail.com/show...t=Monty+Python Not strictly quote threads, but most Monty Python threads got shanghai'd into quote threads anyway. There were a few others as well. However, this is the first thread that's actually meant for quotes, so maybe they'll keep it open. *shrug*

I saw the Monty Python fun one, but since it was for posting a link to a site, I didn't think this should go here. Sorry.

Indeed....
Bright Side of Life Always look on the bright side of life. [whistling] Always look on the light side of life. [whistling] If life seems jolly rotten, There's something you've forgotten, And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing. When you're feeling in the dumps, Don't be silly chumps. Just purse your lips and whistle. That's the thing. And... Always look on the bright side of life. [whistling] Always look on the right side of life, [whistling] For life is quite absurd And death's the final word. You must always face the curtain with a bow. Forget about your sin. Give the audience a grin. Enjoy it. It's your last chance, anyhow. So,... Always look on the bright side of death, [whistling] Just before you draw your terminal breath. [whistling] Life's a piece of ****, When you look at it. Life's a laugh and death's a joke. It's true. You'll see it's all a show. Keep 'em laughing as you go. Just remember that the last laugh is on you. And... Always look on the bright side of life. [whistling] |

Yes, my mom expressed similar feelings when my brother and I quote MP at one another...

"Now for the event to jump over a row of three stacked matchboxes!" Or something like that. Also...
-We have been searching for the holy grail. Would you like to join us? -Uh, we already have one! (I told them we already have one!) And a few morel... "Alright, if someone comes at you with a banana. First you shoot the person and grab the bannana, thus rendering them weaponless." "She had learned the first lesson of not being seen. Don't stand up."

I love MP! Most people don't seem to understand that they are really genuises when it comes to comedy. The people who don't understand have no sense of humor whatsoever!
-Alright you talked me into it. You can have my liver. -And the aptly named Sir NotAppearingInThisFilm. -You stupid twit you made me soil my armor.
