(5,857 posts)The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brothers keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

I really wish I had the power to deliver that line IRL and make it stick (substituting "L.A." with wherever I happen to be at the moment)...

(20,172 posts)Even though I'm a white woman from the South, with parents who were Goldwater Republicans, I would have gotten in more trouble for saying the n-word than the f-word. It makes me cringe. Growing up in the 60s, it wasn't just racist, it was considered low class.
But the one thing I found interesting was that it was used in a different context in each case in PF. There was also"I wouldn't go so far as to call the nigger fat. He's Samoan." "Take the gun off the ni**er." etc.
I hear he used it A LOT in Django Unchained, but I guess Samuel L Jackson doesn't have a problem with it because he keeps working with Tarantino. QT says he uses it in his films because no one word should have that power. I can kind of understand that. And for the most part the characters that use the word in his films would probably use it in real life as well.
But it still makes me cringe.

Thanks for that link.

(10,096 posts)When he says his name before the twist, not much of a quote, but I like it.
Peace
I've probably seen PF 40 times; yet I have no memory of Travolta saying that.
BTW, that "Twist Contest" was the best part of the whole movie, IMO.
I also loved the Ricky Nelson guy....damn, he looked & sounded just like Ricky, and he played the guitar well too.

She says her name as "Mrs. Mia Wallace" then lowers her voice to say "Vincent Vega" when asked her partner's name by the Ed Sullivan(?) impersonator.

(27,677 posts)Vincent: Have you ever given a foot massage?
Jules: (scoffs) Don't be tellin' me about foot massages. I'm the foot fuckin' master.
Vincent: Given a lot of 'em?
Jules: Shit yeah. I got my technique down and everything, I don't be ticklin' or nothin'.
Vincent: Would you give a guy a foot massage?
(Jules gives Vincent a long look, realizing he's been set up.)
Jules: Fuck you.
Vincent: You give them a lot?
Jules: Fuck you.
Vincent: You know, I'm getting kinda tired. I could use a foot massage myself.
Jules: Man, you best back off, I'm gittin' a little pissed here.
