almost famous | "That groupie"? She was a Band-Aid! All she did was love your band. And you used her, all of you! You used her and threw her away!

amadeus | That was not Mozart laughing, Father... that was God. | 39389 |
amadeus | They're all so beautiful. Why don't I have three heads? | 38834 |
amadeus | From now on we are enemies, You and I. Because You choose for Your instrument a boastful, lustful, smutty, infantile boy and give me for reward only the ability to recognize the incarnation. Because You are unjust, unfair, unkind, I will block You, I swear it. I will hinder and harm Your creature on earth as far as I am able. | 39185 |

amadeus | While my father prayed earnestly to God to protect commerce, I would offer up secretly the proudest prayer a boy could think of: Lord, make me a great composer. Let me celebrate Your glory through music and be celebrated myself. Make me famous through the world, dear God. Make me immortal. After I die, let people speak my name forever with love for what I wrote. In return, I will give You my chastity, my industry, my deepest humility, every hour of my life, Amen. | 38731 |
amadeus | All I wanted was to sing to God. He gave me that longing... and then made me mute. Why? Tell me that. If He didn't want me to praise him with music, why implant the desire? Like a lust in my body! And then deny me the talent? | 39164 |
amadeus | Sire, only opera can do this. In a play if more than one person speaks at the same time, it's just noise, no one can understand a word. But with opera, with music... with music you can have twenty individuals all talking at the same time, and it's not noise, it's a perfect harmony! | 39518 |
amadeus | That doesn't really work, does it? | 38911 |

amadeus | Forgive me, Majesty. I am a vulgar man! But I assure you, my music is not. | 39526 |
amadeus | He was my idol. Mozart, I can't think of a time when I didn't know his name. | 38726 |
amadeus | As I stood there understanding how that bitter old man was still possessing his poor son even from beyond the grave, I began to see a terrible way I could finally triumph over God. | 39638 |
amadeus | Your son is an unprincipled, spoiled, conceited brat! | 39045 |
amadeus | A young man trying to impress beyond his abilities. | 38806 |
amadeus | Can you remember no melody of mine? I was the most famous composer in Europe. I wrote 40 operas alone. | 38712 |
amadeus | I will speak for you, Father. I speak for all mediocrities in the world. I am their champion. I am their patron saint. | 40045 |
amadeus | On the page it looked nothing. The beginning simple, almost comic. Just a pulse - bassoons and basset horns - like a rusty squeezebox. Then suddenly - high above it - an oboe, a single note, hanging there unwavering, till a clarinet took over and sweetened it into a phrase of such delight! This was no composition by a performing monkey! This was a music I'd never heard. Filled with such longing, such unfulfillable longing, it had me trembling. It seemed to me that I was hearing the very voice of God. | 38797 |
amadeus | Looks don't concern me, Maestro. Only talent interests a woman of taste. | 38946 |

american beauty | It was one of those days when it's a minute away from snowing and there's this electricity in the air, you can almost hear it. And this bag was, like, dancing with me. Like a little kid begging me to play with it. For fifteen minutes. And that's the day I knew there was this entire life behind things, and... this incredibly benevolent force, that wanted me to know there was no reason to be afraid, ever. Video's a poor excuse, I know. But it helps me remember... and I need to remember... Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world I feel like I can't take it, like my heart's going to cave in. | 41448 |
