The Man in Black and Fezzik are trying to kill each other like civilized human beings. No tricks. No weapons. Skill against skill alone. Just like God intended.
Man in Black: Look, are you just fiddling around with me or what?
Fezzik: I just want you to feel you're doing well. I hate for people to die embarrassed.

Like Xid, my favorite quote comes from The Princess Bride. I loved the character of Vizzini and he had one of the best lines in the entire movie (which is saying a lot given how many great lines this movie has). It's not just the lisp, but his entire delivery that makes this a fantastic quote. Add to it the rumor that Wallace Shawn was worried that his performance wouldn't be humorous enough for the film....yet it feels like a near perfect performance done by a master, absolutely fantastic.

^Gotta love Airplane! I just watched that one for the billionth time the other night!
This one's got one three-lettered word (that starts with an 'a' and ends with a 'ss') and some relatively mild violence, but IMO it's one of the best lines from a movie ever:

The Thin Man Nora Charles: What's that man doing in my drawers?
After The Thin Man: Nick Charles: You see, when it comes to words like that, an illiterate person... Polly Byrnes: Whaddaya mean "illiterate"? My father and mother were married right here in the city hall!

I believe these movies were on recently (or will be soon). Every Sunday I go thru the guide channel looking for movies to record on TCM. I saw about 5 or 6 movies in a row about Thin Man, had no idea what it was. Probably should have set it up to record.

To be honest, I really don't know.

Yes, they were probably showing all 5 of the Thin Man movies, which are great.

And it has my all-time favorite WWE character in it.

Fourscore and seven minutes ago... we, your forefathers, were brought forth upon a most excellent adventure conceived by our new friends, Bill... and Ted. These two great gentlemen are dedicated to a proposition which was true in my time, just as it's true today. Be excellent to each other. And... PARTY ON, DUDES!

I was reading some trivia when he died that he had actually come up with that line with the intent on using it for wrestling but instead used it in They Live.

Oh yes, maybe even "totally heinous".
