Ay, that I had not done a thousand more.
Even now I curse the day--and yet, I think,
Few come within the compass of my curse,--
Wherein I did not some notorious ill,
As kill a man, or else devise his death,
Ravish a maid, or plot the way to do it,
Accuse some innocent and forswear myself,
Set deadly enmity between two friends,
Make poor men's cattle break their necks;
Set fire on barns and hay-stacks in the night,
And bid the owners quench them with their tears.
Oft have I digg'd up dead men from their graves,
And set them upright at their dear friends' doors,
Even when their sorrows almost were forgot;
And on their skins, as on the bark of trees,
Have with my knife carved in Roman letters,
'Let not your sorrow die, though I am dead.'
Tut, I have done a thousand dreadful things
As willingly as one would kill a fly,
And nothing grieves me heartily indeed
But that I cannot do ten thousand more.
-Aaron from Titus Andronicus
Ten thousand worse than ever yet I did
Would I perform, if I might have my will;
If one good deed in all my life I did,
I do repent it from my very soul
-same dude, same play
My all time favorite though:
So let it be written, So let it be done.
Ramses II (played by Yule Bryner) in Ten Commandments

I also liked:
You will be mine, like my dog, or my horse, or my falcon, except that I shall love you more - and trust you less.
same dude, same movie

Roy Batty - Bladerunner : "I have… seen things you people wouldn't believe… Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those… moments… will be lost in time, like [small cough] tears… in… rain. Time… to die…"
Objection! He may be a cold-blooded murderer and the chief antagonist, but he's not the villain.

We all know that is decker...imposing the will of the police state on automatons looking for equality.

"Who wants to be a label?"
- serial killer, professor & cult leader Joe Carroll, The Following (from a show, not a film, but some good lines in this one).
This really stuck with me, and Carroll deserves every horrible label you could throw at him; but it really spoke to me about the labelling culture, the boxes that people try to put others in, the tremendous simplification of the world - if only we have the right label we can keep everything understood and under control. Then just recently, we had gamergate and oh how we could see the labels fly. So a very topical quote.

Facepalm: memorable words...
Thulsa doom: What is the riddle of steel?
Thulsa Doom: Now they will know why they are afraid of the dark. Now they learn why they fear the night.
Thulsa Doom: Infidel Defilers. They shall all drown in lakes of blood.
Thulsa Doom: What is steel compared to the hand that wields it?

My child, you have come to me my son. For who now is your father if it is not me? I am the well spring, from which you flow. When I am gone, you will have never been. What would your world be, without me? My son.
I loved the Conan Movie and James Earl Jones as Thulsa Doom is unforgettable.

Sicilians are great liars. The best in the world. I'm Sicilian. My father was the world heavy-weight champion of Sicilian liars. From growing up with him I learned the pantomime. There are seventeen different things a guy can do when he lies to give himself away. A guys got seventeen pantomimes. A woman's got twenty, but a guy's got seventeen... but, if you know them, like you know your own face, they beat lie detectors all to hell. Now, what we got here is a little game of show and tell. You don't wanna show me nothin', but you're tellin me everything. I know you know where they are, so tell me before I do some damage you won't walk away from.

Or this wonderful dialogue
Thulsa Doom: You broke into my house, stole my property, murdered my servants, and my PETS! And that is what grieves me the most! You killed my snake. Thorgrim is beside himself with grief! He raised that snake from the time it was born.
Conan: You killed my mother! You killed my father, you killed my people! You took my father's sword!
Thulsa Doom: Ah. It must have been when I was younger. There was a time, boy, when I searched for steel, when steel meant more to me than gold or jewels.
Conan: The riddle... of steel?
Thulsa Doom: Yes! You know what it is, don't you, boy? Shall I tell you? It's the least I can do. Steel isn't strong boy, flesh is stronger! Look around you. There, on the rocks; that beautiful girl. [Points to a teenaged girl on a nearby cliff] Come to me, my child... [Beckons to her][The acolyte plunges from the rock to her death.]
Thulsa Doom: THAT is strength, boy! THAT is power! The strength and power of flesh! What is steel, compared to the hand that wields it? Look at the strength in your body, the desire in your heart, I gave you this! Such a waste... Contemplate this on the Tree of Woe. Crucify him!

Hannibal Lecter: "Quid pro quo. I tell you things, you tell me things. Not about this case, though. About yourself. Quid pro quo. Yes or no?"

ibid.: "I do wish we could chat longer, but... I'm having an old friend for dinner."

From the horrible/fantastic movie that was Street Fighter:
Chun Li: You and your bullies were driven back by farmers with pitchforks! My father saved his village at the cost of his own life. You had him shot as you ran away! A hero... at a thousand paces.
Mr Bison: I'm sorry. I don't remember any of it.
Chun Li: You don't remember?
Mr Bison: For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Tuesday.

"Let me give you a little inside information about God. God likes to watch. He's a prankster. Think about it. He gives man instincts. He gives you this extraordinary gift, and then what does He do, I swear for His own amusement, his own private, cosmic gag reel, He sets the rules in opposition. It's the goof of all time. Look but don't touch. Touch, but don't taste. Taste, don't swallow. Ahaha. And while you're jumpin' from one foot to the next, what is he doing? He's laughin' His sick, f~+$in' ass off! He's a tight-ass! He's a SADIST! He's an absentee landlord! Worship that? NEVER!"

Lots of great villain quotes in that one!

"Man is like a candle. He must radiate light by burning himself." -Ankar Moor, Deathsport
This line was spoken by Richard Lynch, a man who had, during an LSD trip gone bad, set himself on fire. I always wondered if the line was written intentionally, with that in mind, or if it was one of those bizarre accidents.

"Gentlemen. Since you are about to die anyway, I may as well tell you the entire plot. Think of villains Jack. You want Dracula? Dra-cool-la? Hang on... I'll fetch him. Dracula? Huh. I can get King Kong! We'll have a nightmare with Freddy Krueger, have a surprise party for Adolf Hitler, Hannibal Lecter can do the catering, and then we'll have christening for Rosemary's Baby! All I have to do is snap my fingers and they'll be here. They're lining up to get here, and do you know why Jack? Should I tell you why? Hmm? Because here, in this world, the bad guys can win!" ~ Benedict

" Now that we know who you are, I know who I am. I'm not a mistake! It all makes sense! In a comic, you know how you can tell who the arch-villain's going to be? He's the exact opposite of the hero. And most times they're friends, like you and me! I should've known way back when... You know why, David? Because of the kids. They called me Mr Glass." - Elijah Price
