   What no ‘Glengarry Glen Ross’? Seriously. The Coffee speech is still one of my favorites.

   Thank God Kevin Costner’s speech from “Bull Durham” isn’t on that list. I always thought that speech was so contrived and phony, and never understood why so many people liked it.

   It might have worked better delivered by a talented actor, but all his lines come across as contrived and phony.
   I agree with you, though, it never did much for me.

   I know it’s not from a movie but I thought Sideshow Bob’s defense of his electoral corruption:
   ” Because you _need_ me, Springfield. Your guilty conscience may force you to vote Democratic, but deep down inside you secretly long for a cold-hearted Republican to lower taxes, brutalize criminals, and rule you like a king. That’s why I did this: to protect you from yourselves”
