Sara had the most correct answers! Five out of ten is pretty good I say! Nobody was able to guess numbers 2 and 5. I was pretty sure no one would know number five (though I highly recommend the movie!), but number 2?? I thought for sure someone would get it, though a couple of you were right in that it is from a Jane Austen movie.
Anyway, here are the answers:
1. The first quote was a Meg Ryan movie
: Did you know there are 452 official kinds of cheese in this country, isn’t that amazing? To find 452 ways to classify what is essentially a bacterial process? Don’t you think that’s amazing?
I use to *LOVE* this movie when I was younger, but I tried watching it last year with my hubby and we shut it off… It has a *LOT* of junk in it. Although, it does have some pretty hilarious lines, which I use to quote all the time. In fact, the first thing that came to mind when I found out that I was severely intolerant to dairy was a scene from this movie when Kate (Meg Ryan) screams “Lactose IN-TOL-ER-ANT!!!” After eating way too much cheese. I can relate! 🙂
2. The second quote: “I must throw a party for her. Otherwise everyone will feel at once how much I dislike her.” was said by Emma Woodhouse in the movie Emma
. Emma cracks me up! We are a little too much alike…
Regina was right. Although I didn’t choose FIVE quotes from Pride and Prejudice, I did list three. I couldn’t help it. I seriously could have listed TEN… I love that movie! So, #3 “I am most seriously displeased.” was said by Lady Catherine. #6: The more I see of the world, the less inclined I am to think well of it. was said by Elizabeth Bennett. And #7: In vain have I struggled, it will not do. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you. was said by Mr. Darcy.
4. It was hard to choose one from Sound of Music
, but the Baroness always makes me laugh when she says, “Darling, haven’t you ever heard of a delightful little thing called boarding school?”
5. “He gave me a wasps nest as a present once.” Now this one was totally random, but I just love the mini-series Wives and Daughters
. It was really good. This quote was said by Molly Gibson in reference to a gift she had once been given by Roger.
Skipping 6 and 7 since I mentioned them above with number 3…
8. Yes, this one was from Cheaper by the Dozen
, the 1950 version. Being the oldest of 12 myself, I can relate… And I can TOTALLY picture my dad answering this same way to the question: “All those kids yours mister, or is this a picnic?” Reply: “They’re all mine and believe me, it’s no picnic!”
9. This one was from a cute movie we recently watched again: Kate and Leopold
. (Another Meg Ryan movie.) Leopold is from the past, and comments: What has happened to the world? You have every convenience and comfort, yet no time for integrity. Isn’t that the truth!
10. The last is from Ever After
. The mean old Baroness always seems to be mad, and I just think it is so funny when she yells: Go… Catch a chicken. I would never yell like that! 😉
That was fun! Thanks for tagging me Shelly!
OH! I knew it was Sound of Music! I could hear her accent and everything, I just could not for the life of me put the face to it! LOL
And I LOVE Ever After, I can’t believe I missed that one!
looks like someone was born in the wrong century!

Regina ~ Here is another quote from Wives and Daughters:
I can’t help but think it was such a pity I was born when I was. I should like to belong to this generation.
😉
Ohhh I was thinking Emma. I should have said it.
Fun tag.
Alas, I only knew the one from Ever After, which is a favorite of mine. Fun!
Hi Jessica. I wanted to play but had to take my oldest to art class yesterday:) I knew #2,3,7. One of our favorite movie lines,”What a superbly featured room and what excellent boiled potaotes.”
ooops the last post was from me:)
God Bless, Lori
Lori ~ That was said by Mr. Collins… wasn’t it?
Yep!:)
