which movie
Don’t remember this quote but has to be Porco Rosso.
I can confirm.
thanks
"To see with eyes unclouded by hate."
Ashitaka, in Princess Mononoke.
I find myself using this often when talking about Jr devs or Jr sysadmins
"Yesterday is gone. So is the day before. Don't waste today by arguing about it."
Alternatively, when someone angers me:
"May all your bacon burn."
But .. I like burned bacon.
"There you are, sweetheart, sorry I'm late. I was looking everywhere for you." (Howl's Moving Castle)
It's the very first thing Howl says to Sophie when they meet for the first time. The quote itself, without context, isn't exactly meaningful and rather sounds like some bullsh*t smalltalk to distract the guards ... but there is this scene very late in the story where Sophie goes back in time and witnesses a young Howl catching and swallowing Calcifer. Remember what she did?
She called out to them. "Howl! Calcifer! I'ts me, Sophie! I know how to help you now - find me in the future!"
Howl literally has been looking for her ever since that day.
It's one of these small but really cool details that you only retroactively realize after watching the movie several times.
I've seen this movie several times and never noticed that! So cool!
I'm always partial to "PONYO LOVES HAM!!!"
"You cannot alter your fate. However, you can rise to meet it" - Princess Mononoke, but in German it's much better.
"If only I were a bit younger, I could give you a hand!" --Sophie, Howl's Moving Castle
Haaaam!
Ponyo!
The girls yelling "LITTLE DUST BUNNIES GO AWAY RIGHT NOOOOW!" from the original Streamline dub of My Neighbor Totoro is forever etched in my brain, so it's probably that.
Makkuro kurosuke!
I like when the Boy says to the Heron "wtf leave me alone you big stupid bird"
Omg I quote that quote all the time!
“I see no point in living if I can’t be beautiful.”
crackles

It's from the Warriors of the Wind version of Nausicaä, Yuppa's "Now that you've had time to think about it, are you ready to surrender?"

We thought you were going to marry an airplane!
