Everything: DeNiro




RAGING BULL (1980)
– nightclub scene...


Tommy Como:
I’m just talkin' here...
I'm betting a lot of
money on you in this
fight with Janiro.

Jake LaMotta:
Yeah?

Tommy:
What would you tell me?

Jake:
I'd say bet everything you got.

Tommy: Everything?
Jake: Everything.

Meg Griffin: "...Brian, let's dance!!..."






Connie:

You know, Meg, there's no dogs
allowed here so you're gonna
have to leave,
but Brian can stay.

Brian:

You know, Connie,
I think I have a theory
about why you're such a bitch.

Connie:

Excuse me?

Meg:

Brian let's just go.

Brian:  

No, no, no hang on, hang on.
You see Connie,
you're popular
because you developed
early and started giving
handjobs when you were twelve
and now you can't stand
to look at yourself in the mirror
because all you see is a whore.
So you pick on Meg to avoid
the inevitable realization that
once your body is used up by age 19
you're going to be a worn-out,
chalky-skinned burlap-sack
that even your step-dad won't want.

How's that? 

Am I in the ballpark?

In Lemnos, 1190 B.C. - in the Time of World War











Let me tell you... the way they abandoned me.

The sea and the sea-swell had me all worn out,

So I dozed and fell asleep under a rock

Down on the shore.

  And there and then, just like that,

They headed off.

  And they were delighted...









The ships all disappeared...




Ship of fools.... Sail away from me.

Guns don't kill people...



Ukraine, 1942 - modern times, Western civilization.







A mere handful of motivated Government bureaucrats


 ---can kill people---


at a ratio of 100 to 1,
as "obedient citizens" undress and quietly march into a pit.

No need to worry about unrestrained government power.
What's the worst that can happen if we are disarmed... these are modern times?
