What's Your Favorite John Hughes Movie Quote?

Writer/Director/Producer John Hughes died today in New York at the age of 59.

If you had a pulse in the 80's, you saw his films...."The Breakfast Club", "Sixteen Candles", "Pretty In Pink", "Vacation", "Planes, Trains and Automobiles", "Home Alone" and "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". He launched the careers of many young actors and gave us a zillion memorable lines. The soundtracks were the sound of a generation and sold millions. And we all learned that there was a little jock, basket case, criminal, nerd and princess in all of us.

Thanks, John, for giving us your clever insight into teenage angst and making it easy for us to laugh at ourselves.

Some of my favorites are from "The Breakfast Club"...
“Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.”
"Could you describe the ruckus, sir?"
"Demented and sad....but social."
"You mess with the bull, you get the horns."

And from "Home Alone"
"You guys give up yet? Or are you thirsty for more?"

LMAO!!
