    I always liked after Rocky pounded the meat Slab when Paulie said..


    "You do that to Apollo Creed, they'll put us in jail for murder."


    So many classic lines, many already have been posted..

    Apollo Creed in the first film,replying to a reporter's question about what he'd advise a kid who wanted to take up boxing. Something like -
    "Sports make you smell. Be a doctor...be a lawyer.....carry a briefcase....be a thinker...not a stinker" ! Even though it was directly lifted from a Muhammad Ali comment used before the Floyd Patterson fight in 1972 :lol:

    I love the whole monologue from the first movie when Rocky comes home and starts to express doubt. Makes a fairy tale movie a lot grittier.

    Rocky: Ah come on, Adrian, it's true. I was nobody. But that don't matter either, you know? 'Cause I was thinkin', it really don't matter if I lose this fight. It really don't matter if this guy opens my head, either. 'Cause all I wanna do is go the distance. Nobody's ever gone the distance with Creed, and if I can go that distance, you see, and that bell rings and I'm still standin', I'm gonna know for the first time in my life, see, that I weren't just another bum from the neighborhood.

    Not a line but a monologue, for some others not mentioned.

    Mickey, "Women weaken legs."
    Rocky, "Yeah, but I really like her."
    Mickey, "Then have her train ya!"

    Mickey, "Why you got to wear that stinkin sweatshirt?"
    Rocky, "It brings me luck"
    Mickey, "You know what it brings, it brings flies."

    Adrain, "Why did you ever become a fighter?"
    Rocky, "Cause I can't sing or dance, hey yo."

    Anything with Paulie is great too

    "Is this what I taught ya? To feed these god damn squirrels."

    Admittedly, I've used this line before.

    "You get the license numba?"
    "Of what?"
    "The truck that run over ya face."

    Drago "I must break you".

    Paulie "You know that speech I said about wanted to be you?"

    Rocky" Yeah"

    Paulie "Forget about it."

    Rocky "Thanks Paulie."
