I've posted an entry for my fav quotes from The Silence of The Lambs b4, and since that Christabel has posted her fav quotes from Memento on her blog, I figured that I should do the same on mine. After all, Memento has some memorable quotes:
Teddy: Was he scared?
Leonard: Yeah, I think it was your sinister moustache.
Natalie: What's the last thing that you do remember?
Leonard: My wife...
Natalie: That's sweet.
Leonard: ...dying.
Leonard: Memory can change the shape of a room; it can change the color of a car. And memories can be distorted. They're just an interpretation, they're not a record, and they're irrelevant if you have the facts.
Leonard: Memory's unreliable. No no no, really. Memory's not perfect; it's not even that good. Ask the police. Eyewitness testimony is unreliable. Cops don't catch a killer by sitting around remembering stuff. They collect facts, they make notes, and they draw conclusions. Facts, not memories. That's how you investigate. I know. It's what I used to do. Look, memory can change the shape of a room; it can change the color of a car. And memories can be distorted. They're just an interpretation, they're not a record, and they're irrelevant if you have the facts.
Leonard: So how... how can I heal? How am I supposed to heal if I can't... feel time?
Natalie: Is that what your little note says? It must be hard living your life off a couple of scraps of paper. You mix your laundry list with your grocery list you'll end up eating your underwear for breakfast.
Leonard: These tracks are just a few days old.
Teddy: What are you, Pocahontas?
Leonard: I can't remember to forget you.
And the best line:
Leonard: I don't feel... drunk...
