The book Miracle at Midway includes an unintentionally amusing quote from Miller himself describing the ceremony at which he was decorated. Miller, whose spelling was a bit unorthodox, wrote about how moved he felt when Nimitz pinned the Navy Cross on his “heaving busom”.

Why do you want it so badly? It is just a piece of worthless metal.
Look! (He tosses him his Iron Cross. )It is not worthless to me.

Walt Kowalski from Gran Torino. Take your pick:
“[to Father Janovich] I think you’re an overeducated 27-year-old virgin who likes to hold the hands of superstitious old ladies and promise them everlasting life.”
“Ever notice how you come across somebody once in a while you shouldn’t have f*cked with? That’s me.”
“You wanna know what it’s like to kill a man? Well, it’s goddamn awful, that’s what it is. The only thing worse is getting a medal… for killing some poor kid that wanted to just give up, that’s all. Yeah, some scared little gook just like you. I shot him in the face with that rifle you were holding in there a while ago. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about it, and you don’t want that on your soul.”

From the greatest western ever;

I’m surprise this isn’t on here yet, so I’ll be the one to post it. It is by far the best quote from any movie yet made:
**Mongol General: Hao! Dai ye! We won again! This is good, but what is best in life?
Mongol: The open steppe, fleet horse, falcons at your wrist, and the wind in your hair.
Mongol General: Wrong! Conan! What is best in life?
Conan: To crush your enemies. See them driven before you. And to hear the lamentations of their women.
Mongol General: That is good! That is good.**

Conan: To crush your enemies. See them driven before you. And to hear the lamentations of their women.
That was originally a Ghengis Khan quote, if I’m not mistaken, but Arnold delivers his version of it nicely.

Yeah, but I don’t get why the guy who says “wind in your hair” didn’t get his asss immediately kicked out of the tent… what a loser…

I dunno…maybe he works for the chieftain as a staff officer, to handle paperwork, rather than as front-line combat officer, and therefore isn’t expected to be as macho as Arnold. Douglas MacArthur, who didn’t like Dwight Eisenhower, once said of Eisenhower (who – as a colonel, if I’m not mistaken – had once worked for him as a staff officer) that “He was the best clerk I ever had.” Eisenhower similarly didn’t like MacArthur, and once said of him “I studied drama under him for three years” (I may have the number wrong; I don’t recall the exact figure).
