In honor of my favorite useless holiday, I present these – my favorite 12 quotes from the Bill Murray 1993 classic – Groundhog Day.
- You wanna throw up here, or you wanna throw up in the car? I think… both.
- Do you ever have déjà vu, Mrs. Lancaster? I don’t think so, but I could check with the kitchen.
- It’s the same thing your whole life: “Clean up your room. Stand up straight. Pick up your feet. Take it like a man. Be nice to your sister. Don’t mix beer and wine, ever.” Oh yeah: “Don’t drive on the railroad track.” Well, Phil, that’s one I happen to agree with.
- Come on, *all* the long distance lines are down? What about the satellite? Is it snowing in space? Don’t you have some kind of a line that you keep open for emergencies or for celebrities? I’m both. I’m a celebrity in an emergency.
- This is one time where television really fails to capture the true excitement of a large squirrel predicting the weather.
- This is pitiful. A thousand people freezing their butts off waiting to worship a rat. What a hype. Groundhog Day used to mean something in this town. They used to pull the hog out, and they used to eat it. You’re hypocrites, all of you!
- He… might be okay. [the truck explodes in a fireball] Well, no. Probably not now.
- If you gotta shoot, aim high. I don’t wanna hit the groundhog.
- You want a prediction about the weather, you’re asking the wrong Phil. I’ll give you a winter prediction: It’s gonna be cold, it’s gonna be grey, and it’s gonna last you for the rest of your life.
- What would you do if you were stuck in one place and every day was exactly the same, and nothing that you did mattered?
Ralph: That about sums it up for me. - Not bad… Mr. Connors, you say this is your first lesson? Phil: Yes, but my father was a piano *mover*, so…
- Well maybe the *real* God uses tricks, you know? Maybe he’s not omnipotent. He’s just been around so long he knows everything.
