1The Big Lebowski (1998)

Character: The Dude (Jeff Bridges)

Quote: "The Dude abides."

Real-World Value: As The Strangers says in the above clip, "I don't know about you, but I take comfort in that. It's good knowing he's out there, The Dude, taking her easy for all us sinners."

In times of turmoil, it definitely pays to be your own Dude, and just...well, y'know...abide. Not being entirely sure just what that involves is somehow part of the great calming shambles of it all. Another White Russian, then? Don't mind if we do...

How about "Failure is not an option" from Apollo 13 or even "Some people say forgive and forget. Nah, I don't know. I say forget about forgiving and just accept. And get the hell out of town." From Grosse point blank

My number one would definitely have been from Shawshank Redemption:

"Get busy living... or get busy dying."

Why do we have to turn to movies for guidance,
why not just make up your own?
Like no point in trying to drink spilt milk.....
Or forever is only as long as we want it to be...
