So, for my first Movie Quote Monday, I had no choice but to pick a few good lines from the greatest movie ever made: Jaws. I can basically quote this entire movie, but I will just give some of the best and most memorable lines. (And if you have never seen this film.... WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??? GO WATCH IT!!!)

--------------------

Mayor Vaughn: (to Martin) I don't think you appreciate the gut reaction people have to these things.

Martin Brody: Harry, I appreciate it. I'm just reacting to what I was told.

Mayor Vaughn: Martin... it's all psychological. You yell "barracuda", everybody says, "Huh? What?". You yell "shark"... we've got a panic on our hands on the Fourth of July.

--------------------

Ellen Brody: I'm sorry... I thought you told me the shark was caught? And... I heard it on the news; I heard it on the cape station.

Matt Hooper: They caught A shark. Not THE shark.

--------------------

Martin Brody: We're gonna need a bigger boat...

--------------------

Matt Hooper: That's it. Goodbye! I'm not going to waste my time arguing with a man that is lining up to be a hot lunch!

--------------------

Captain Quint: ...I'll catch this bird for you, but it ain't gonna be easy. Bad fish; not like goin' down to the pond and chasin' blue gills or tommy cods. This shark? Swallow you whole... a little shakin', a little tenderizin'... down you go. And we gotta do it quick. Gotta bring back the tourists that'll put all your businesses on a payin' basis. But it's not gonna be pleasant! I value my neck a lot more than three thousand bucks, Chief! I'll find him for three... but I'll catch him---and kill him---for ten...

--------------------

Those are just a few of my favorites. I have a bunch more, but you will just have to watch the movie to hear the rest!
