Funny, earth-shattering, whatever. What really stuck with you from a movie?

I know Fight Club is sort of played out thanks to all the internet memeing but:
I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.
Besides being funny, its actually a brilliant line used as extremely subtle foreshadowing. The Narrator takes a motif from the reading material in his run-down house (I am Joe's Liver, I am Jack's colon, ect) and begins to use those to describe his feelings. In essence, The Narrator is using the organs in the body as a metaphor for his own split personalities.
Not really a movie but I like this.
Lorne Malvo: Truth is, you're more of a man today than you were yesterday.
Lester Nygaard: How do you figure?
Lorne Malvo: It's a red tide, Lester. This life of ours. The shit they make us eat. Day after day - The boss, the wife, et cetera - wearing us down. If you don't stand up to it, let 'em know you're still an ape. Deep down where it counts. You're just gonna get washed away.
From the First Fargo series.
This one is fresh in my memory as I've only recently seen Dr Strangelove for the first time.
