With six quotes,
Casablanca is the most represented film.
Gone with the Wind and
The Wizard of Oz are tied for second, with three each.

Jerry Maguire each have two quotes. Rick Blaine (
Casablanca) is the character with the most quotes (four);
Dorothy Gale (
The Wizard of Oz),
Harry Callahan (
Dirty Harry and
Sudden Impact),
James Bond (
Dr. No and
Goldfinger),
Norma Desmond (

Scarlett O'Hara (

Sean Connery also has two entries, but his two quotes are shared with five other actors. As well as the five quotes spoken by Bogart, two other quotes on the list (from
The Treasure of the Sierra Madre and
To Have and Have Not) were spoken
to him, by
Alfonso Bedoya and
Lauren Bacall, respectively. Further, "Round up the usual suspects." was spoken in his presence and for his character's benefit by
Claude Rains, and "Play it, Sam." is often mistakenly attributed to him; he actually said, "You played it for her, you can play it for me. ... If she can stand it, I can! Play it!" The line "My precious", from
The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, is the only quote from a movie released in the 21st century and the 3rd millennium. It is also the only one by a
CGI character.
