Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas ... favourite quotes!

I have two quotes I love equally!
"What? No ... wait ... we can't stop here ... this is bat country!"
"We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter-acid, a salt-shaker half-full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-coloured uppers, downers, screamers, laughers, also a quart of tequila, quart of rum, case of beer, pint of raw ether, two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendancy is to push it as far as you can."

I can speak the latter from memory!

 

dr gonzo *singing*- One toke over the line.

raul duke - One toke you poor fool, wait till you see these goddamn bats.

 

always use that quote on people being a pussy about anything

 

I didn't care much for the movie. It seemed like nothing more than a movie for teenaged stoners. It really had nothing to offer, in my opinion - no substance. I did like the cinematography, however.

And I do like Hunter S. Thompson, but this movie annoyed me more than anything. Maybe if I had dropped acid before I watched it I would have liked it more.

 

I did enjoy the movie actually, but I found it to be hilarious more than anything else. Terry Gilliam (did I spell it right?) directed it very well. I also like his work on Brazil and Time Bandits, especially Brazil.

 

"There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die."
I'd like to say that about me, but I'm just not weird enough.
Yet.

 

terry gillium also played "Patsy" in monty python and the holy grail.

 

"did you see what GOD just did to us man?""GOd didnt do it, you did. your a fucking narcotics agent!"

"we were right in the middle of a fucking reptile zoo, and someone was giving boos to these god damn things!"

this next one isnt really a quote but i love the part with the adrenochrome

"WHAT HAPPENED? WHAT ABOUT THE GLANDS?!" "man that shit got to you. look at your face. your about to explode"-if that parts right haha

"May I have a kiss before you go? its very lonely out here"

those are only some of them there are so many awsome lines/quotes in that movie!

 

"Do you remember the philosopher Epictetus? You
remember what he said? He said, 'If you want to
improve, be content to be thought foolish and
stupid.' "- Dean, Serendipity

"King: (gesturing expansively out the window) One day, lad, *all* this will be yours.
Son: What, the curtains?
King: No, not the curtains, lad! All that you can see, stretched out over the 'ills and valleys of this land. That'll be your kindom, lad."- Monty Python and the Holy Grail

 

well,

i built the first castle, and it sank into the swamp, then i built the second castle and it sank into the swamp. i built the 3rd one and it stayed.

 

It Was No Use Mentioning Those Bats, The Poor Bastard Would See Them Soon Enough
​

Raoul Duke - "One concept my attorney has never been able to grasp is that.. you can get a lot higher without drugs. And neither have I for that matter"

Duke - "With some luck, his life would be ruined forever. Always thinking in the back of his mind that men in red checkered coats doing LSD on the other side of bathroom doors."

Duke - "Come on you fiend"

Dr. Gonzo - "He took my woman man!"

And of course
Duke- "Order some golf shoes or will never get out of here alive"

 

"in a few hours she'll probably be sane enough to work herself into some sort of jesus-based rage at the hazy recollection of being seduced by some kind of cruel samoan, who fed her liquor and LSD, dragged her into a vegas hotel room and savagely penetrated every orifice of her little body with his throbbing uncircumsized member"

 

Dr GOnzo-"Thats so ugly man!" That ahh! ahh! AHH! thats ahh!"

Raoul Duke-"Fuck, truth hurts"

 

I don't have a quote, but did want to say, I got pregnant with my last baby while watching this movie. LOL!! Bear won't watch it a second time (YES, we rented the video, we didn't see it in the theatre!)

 

From the sounds of things you didnt quite watch it at home either Mag O_O;;

 

Duke "wait we cant stop here this bat country"
Dr Gonzo " here have alittle of the sunshine acid"
Duke "how long do i have"
Dr Gonzo " if your atturntey I awise you drive in a top speed it would be a goddamn Mericual before we turn into a wild animal.
Duke " 30min it is going to be close"

 

I love that quote also. I think I could say it about myself because I'm a total weirdo FReAk

 

I also like this one...it makes me laugh. Johnny Depp is sooo good in this movie.

"Few people understand the psychology of dealing with a highway traffic cop. Your normal speeder will panic and immediately pull over to the side. This is wrong. It arouses contempt in the cop-heart. Make the bastard chase you. He will follow."

 

THATS THE BEST ONE
