Don't look it up somewhere . Use your memory because I bet it's identified and tucked in there somewhere. Familiar, huh.


Way too easy.....in the movie --> Ferris Bueller's Day Off by Ferris Bueller

I've even used that line from my signature here..........

Try this one on for size under same constraints: "We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of the dreams."

The difficulty with quotes is unless they are obscure they are usually fairly easy to recall....particularly the stuff from films, and if they are obscure.........who cares!

Willy Wonka, in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Scene where he chastises Veruca Salt over the lick-able wall paper.

Interesting that some of you can remember such things.

I have always been amused by Chucks, "Brother, can you spare a dime?"

I just looked it up. Written by...

Maybe I should keep it to myself. Chuck might want to use it in a Whatzit.

I suspect this quote will be remembered in less time than it take me to type it, "One cannot behold the face of the gorgon and live!"

But that is not the Whatzit question. The question is, "What bible verse is it taken from?"

It won't be me who gets that one. I can't even remember what was on the Whazit page before this one. :?

It's a gift and a Curse.

I love Judy Collins cover of this song from the Album "Judith". A lot of good cuts on the album including "I'll be seeing you in all the old Familiar Places", "City of New Orleans" (with Steve Goodman doing back up guitar), "Send in the Clowns" as well as a number of her own songs including "Song for the Duke" and "Born to the Breed". Of the twelve cuts only one is "sub par", Pirate Ships.

"You cannot see My face; for no man shall see Me, and live" Exodus 33:20

Elvis, "Let it Be"

Should we ban you from the Whatzit thread or just Let It Be?

Keep answering mine Chuck as long as it amuses you. :D

Yes, Exodus 33:20. :shock:

Perfect, Chuck...
...and I much enjoy Judy Collin's performance of it, too. She's vulnerable, yet, authoritative when she sings it.
