But, in particular: "There is some good left in this world, Mr. Frodo. And that good is worth fighting for."

That's my fav speech from the trilogy. It's so applicable in a spiritual and secular sense.

One of my favs has to be the President's Speech from [i]Armageddon[/i]:
[quote]I address you tonight not as the President of the United States, not as the leader of a country, but as a citizen of humanity. We are faced with the very gravest of challenges. The Bible calls this day "Armageddon"-the end of all things. And yet, for the first time in the history of the planet, a species has the technology to prevent its own extinction. All of you praying with us need to know that everything that can be done to prevent this disaster is being called into service.
The human thirst for excellence, knowledge, every step up the ladder of science, every adventurous reach into space, all of our combined modern technologies and imaginations, even the wars that we've fought have provided us the tools to wage this terrible battle. Through all the chaos that is our history, through all of the wrong and the discord, through all of the pain and suffering, through all of our times, there is one thing that has nourished our souls, and elevated our species above its origins, and that is our courage.
The dreams of an entire planet are focused tonight on those fourteen brave souls traveling into the heavens. And may we all, citizens the world over, see these events through. God speed, and good luck to you.[/quote]

Not a movie, but this scene from LOST gets me every time:

Ben- "Because he's the only one who will [i]have[/i] me..."

Lyana- "I'll have you."

"Do you know why I do what I do? I mean, there are more prestigeous assignments. Keeping track of nuclear arsenels - you'd think that be more critical to world security. But it's not. No, nine out of ten war victims today are killed with assault rifles and small arms - like yours. Those nuclear weapons sit in their silos. Your AK-47, that's the real weapon of mass destruction. " - Agent Jack Valentine in [u]Lord of War[/u] to the arms dealer.

Great movie. I caught it by accident, I don't watch many movies, and I probably never would have watched it unless by accident, but it was really good.
