    When people think you’re dying, they really, really listen to you, instead of just waiting for their turn to speak.

    Fight Club

    Doesn’t really give me goosebumps, but I think about it a lot because how much of a lie it is, especially because the Narrator/Cornelius is too full of himself to recognize the only people stopping to listen to him are people who are actually dying themselves. He isn’t dying, and isn’t actually listening to any of their stories, certainly not with sincerity or care. He is just merely… waiting for his turn to speak.

    "Sons of Gondor, of Rohan. My brothers.

    I see it in your eyes, the same fear that would take the heart of me.

    A day may come, when the courage of men fails. Where we forsake our friends, and abandon all bonds of fellowship.

    But it is not this day.

    An hour of wolves and shattered shields, when the age of men comes crashing down, but it is not this day. This day we fight!

    By all that you hold dear on this good earth, I bid you stand! Men of the West!"

    Sixth Sense:

    “She said you came to the place where they buried her. Asked her a question? She said the answer is… “Every day.” What did you ask?”

    “Do… Do I make her proud?”

    The end of Captain Phillips when they take him onboard for medical care. Fuck me if I’m not hitching and weeping every single time.

    While we’re on Tom Hanks, the crash in Sully with the stewardesses chanting in unison, “Brace! Brace! Brace! Heads down, stay down. Brace! Brace! Brace! Heads down, stay down.”

    One of the very few times I’ve gotten goosebumps was from the last bit of dialog in the first Terminator movie. Sarah Connor is sitting in her jeep at a gas station with her German Shepherd. Sarah: What did he just say? Gas Station Attendant: He said there’s a storm coming. Sarah (looking off into the distance): I know.
