For Instance:

"I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think"

Master Chief John Urgayle: Pain is your friend, your ally, it will tell you when you are seriously injured, it will keep you awake and angry, and remind you to finish the job and get the hell home. But you know the best thing about pain?

Lt. Jordan O'Neil: Don't know!

Master Chief John Urgayle: It lets you know you're not dead yet!

Heroes are something we create, something we need. It's a way for us to understand what is almost incomprehensible, how people could sacrifice so much for us, but for my dad and these men the risks they took, the wounds they suffered, they did that for their buddies, they may have fought for their country but they died for their friends.”
Flags of Our Fathers (2006) – James Bradley (Thomas McCarthy)

Hello. I'm Forrest, Forrest Gump.

Nobody gives a hunky shit who you are, pus ball. You're not even a low-life, scum-sucking maggot. Get your ass on the bus, you're in the army now!

"Americans traditionally love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle. When you were kids, you all admired the champion marble shooter, the fastest runner, big league ball players, the toughest boxers. Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a loser. Americans play to win all the time.”

Patton (1970) – General George Patton (George C. Scott)

"When you stick your hand in the pile of goo..." Also from Patton.

Patton had so many great quotes.

They're ivory. Only a pimp from a cheap New Orleans whorehouse would carry a pearl-handled pistol.

We're not just going to shoot the bastards, we're going to cut out their living guts and use them to grease the treads on our tanks. We're going to murder those lousy Hun bastards by the bushel.

Thirty years from now, when you're sitting around your fireside with your grandson on your knee and he asks you, "What did you do in the great World War II," you won't have to say, "Well... I shoveled shit in Louisiana."

“When I go home people will ask me, ‘Hey Hoot, why do you do it man? What, you some kinda war junkie?’ You know what I’ll say? I won’t say a goddamn word. Why? They won’t understand. They won’t understand why we do it. They won’t understand that it’s about the men next to you, and that’s it. That’s all it is.”

– Black Hawk Down (2001)

Eric Bana as Norman "Hoot" Hooten, loads up his weapon to go on the rescue mission to help pull a squad of Army Rangers out of a huge pile of shit in Somalia.

Sir, I just watched that movie again last week or so. That quote stood out to me too.

"Few of us are given the opportunity, even fewer the courage to sacrifice ourselves for the lives of our comrades. In daily life, even as in battle each one of us is mysteriously and irrevocably bound to our fellow man. And yet, it is only in death that the power of this bond is finally tested and proven. And who among us really knows how he might respond when the moment comes?"

"You see that man? You and he are brothers! He depends on you! You depend on him! You *never* leave a man behind!"

"Let me respond to you this way. I'm an officer, and therefore, by proclamation, a gentleman, but don't abuse that, son. Don't get in my crosshairs, because I'll have no compunction whatsoever about getting up to my neck in yo' ass. Do you understand me?"

Zab: [narrating] Big Red One

By now we'd come to look at all replacements as dead men who temporarily had the use of the arms and legs. The came and went so fast and so regularly that sometimes we didn't even learn their names. Truth is, after a while, we sort of avoided gettin' to know them.

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: As soon as your bunks are done, I want you two turds to clean the head.
Joker and Cowboy: Sir, yes, sir.
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: I want that head so sanitary and squared-away that the Virgin Mary herself would be proud to go in and take a dump.

I don't see any Major Payne

Major Benson Winifred Payne: [on the rained-out obstacle course] Move it, you turds! You'll get no sympathy from me! You want sympathy, look in the dictionary between shit and syphilis!

Major Payne: Maybe what he need is for you to pop your titty out his mouth and let the boy grow up.
Emily: Excuse me, what did you say?
Major Payne: I didn't stutter, I said pop-your-titty-out-his-mouth AND STOP BABYING HIM.
Emily: I don't call it babying, I call it nurturing.
Major Payne: And I call it neutering.
Emily: And I call you an insecure, overbearing, psychopathic, edictorial, ego maniacal, frigid lunatic ASSHOLE!
Major Payne: I ain't frigid.


Major Payne: From now on, my little group of shaved scrotum sacks, you will walk like me, talk like me, eat like me, and until you win those games, you will be BALD like me.


Major Payne: Here I got somethin' for ya. [puts a piece of metal in Emily's hand]
Emily: What is it?
Major Payne: A bullet. It's somethin' special. It's from my heart.
Emily: Really? Well, where did you get it?
Major Payne: From my heart, left ventricle; took it out myself with a field knife.

I think the best line from the movie is after he opens up on the closet with his pistol. When the teacher comes running up the stairs, and the little kid comes out and in his little voice
"Major Payne just terminated that bad man with extreme prejudice, and if he's still in there, he aint happy."
It is not just the line, but it is who delivers the line, and how he delivers it.

"Major Payne: One! Don't you feel dumb. Two! Look at you. Three! Don't you ever make jokes about me behind my back or else I'll stomp you into the ground."

"Major Payne: What's your damage, muscle head? You stupid? You ignorant or are you just plain old deaf?
Woliger: Actually, sir, he is deaf.
Major Payne: Oh, thank you now drop down and give me 25 more for speaking out of line!
[back to Fox]
Major Payne: I'm sorry, Mr. Handicapped Man. I did not mean to offend you. Do you understand sign language? Can you read lips? Well if you don't answer me when I speak to you, I'm gonna put my foot in your ass, is that clear dummy?
Cadet Fox: Sir, yes sir!"

"Major Payne: If the Army wanted me to have a wife, they would've issued me one!"
