My favorite Rain Man line comes in the casino when Charlie and Raymond are cleaning up on the black jack table. The club becomes suspicious and the cameras upstairs are looked for anything unusual and a security guy is asked for his opinion when he says, something like (he's Rain Man), "he's not catching the hold card, he's not using a computer, No, but something's not right"!
"You know there's no one in the world who can count a six-card shoe", then, the film goes to Rain Man's eyes busily counting the six-card shoe.
My son's has a wizard like attention to numbers. It's never 8:30. It's always, "my clock says 27 minutes after 8:00".
He maps out the exact times and bus numbers when he goes places. And he goes a lot of places. He's very high functioning. Oh, and he's an excellent driver! Just kidding.
The irony is so thick you could choke on it. Think, Frank. Think. The same government that trained me to kill trained you to protect. Yet now you want to kill me while up on that roof I protected you.
There going to write books about us, Frank.
I think this is worth a second look. Come on. Somebody? This is a great movie line.
"Well, yes, ma'am, I do... I mean, I got everything I need right here with me. I got air in my lungs, a few blank sheets of paper. I mean, I love waking up in the morning not knowing what's gonna happen or, who I'm gonna meet, where I'm gonna wind up. Just the other night I was sleeping under a bridge and now here I am on the grandest ship in the world having champagne with you fine people. I figure life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You don't know what hand you're gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you... to make each day count."
"Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it."
"Don't you realize? The next time you see sky, it'll be over another town. The next time you take a test, it'll be in some other school. Our parents, they want the best of stuff for us. But right now, they got to do what's right for them. Because it's their time. Their time! Up there! Down here, it's our time. It's our time down here. That's all over the second we ride up Troy's bucket."

I have no clue Raf. Must be one I haven't seen. And there's been a few.

So then it's not "K-Pax."
I think that probably just leaves
"E.T.-the Extraterrestrial."

I played out of turn with that one. Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men after he's arrested near the end of the movie.
Yes it was In The Line Of Fire. I don't know yours.

Perhaps another memorable line from the same movie. I'll give two.
And you people are supposed to be sensitive.
I guess what I'm trying to say is: you make me want to be a better man
