The Best of Matt Damon

Will Hunting
"What do you wanna know? That I don't have 12 brothers? That I'm a fuckin' orphan? You don't wanna hear that... no, you don't wanna hear that. You don't wanna hear that I got fuckin' cigarettes put out on me when I was a little kid! That this is 'cause the motherfucker stabbed me! You don't wanna hear that shit, Skylar. Tell me you don't wanna hear that shit isn't fuckin' surgery!"

Sir Jean de Carrouges
"I will not be patronized by this squire who lies about court, waiting to be feted with gift upon gift upon gift, and risks nothing. Nothing. He may acquire more property in this world, find more favor, eat more, drink more, bed more, and otherwise call himself a man of arms. But in this hall and any other in my company, he will call me Sir. Sir. Sir."

Colin Sullivan
"If we're not gonna make it, it's gotta be you that gets out, cause I'm not capable. I'm fucking Irish, I'll deal with something being wrong for the rest of my life."

Tom Ripley
"I always thought it would be better to be a fake somebody than a real nobody."

Leslie Groves
"Are you saying that there's a chance that when we push that button... we destroy the world?"

Private Ryan
"You can tell her that when you found me, I was with the only brothers I had left. And that there was no way I was deserting them. I think she'd understand that."

Dr. Mann
"You're feeling it, aren't you? The survival instinct. That's what drove me. It's what drives all of us. And it's what's gonna save us. Cause I'm gonna save all of us. For you, Cooper."

Jason Bourne
"I can tell you the license plate numbers of all six cars outside. I can tell you that our waitress is left-handed and the guy sitting up at the counter weighs two hundred fifteen pounds and knows how to handle himself. I know the best place to look for a gun is the cab or the gray truck outside, and at this altitude, I can run flat out for a half mile before my hands start shaking. Now why would I know that? How can I know that and not know who I am?"

Mark Whitacre
"I've been to Tokyo. They sell little-girl underwear in the vending machines right on the main drag, the Ginza, or whatever. Guys in suits buying used girl panties. How is that okay? That's not okay."

LaBoeuf
"It is you who have nothing to offer, Cogburn! A sad picture indeed. This is no longer a manhunt, it is a debauch. The Texas Ranger presses on... alone."

Linus
"Apparently, he's got a record longer than my... well, it's long."

Sonny Vaccaro
"A shoe is just a shoe until somebody steps into it. Then it has meaning. The rest of us just want a chance to touch that greatness. We need you in these shoes not so you have meaning in your life, but so that we have meaning in ours."

Mark Watney
"I don't want to come off as arrogant here, but I'm the greatest botanist on this planet."

Loki
"Hey, you know, fuck you, man. Any moron with a pack of matches can set a fire. Raining down sulphur is like an endurance trial man. Mass genocide is the most exhausting activity one can engage in, next to soccer."

Carroll Shelby
"We're lighter, we're faster, and if that don't work, we're nastier."
