My favorite movie ever, partly because of the choice quotes.

Hoggle: You know your problem? You take too much for granted. Take this Labyrinth… even if you reach the center you’ll never get out again. Sarah: That’s your opinion. Hoggle: Well it’s a lot better than yours. Sarah: Thanks for nothing Howart. Hoggle: Oh! It’s Hoggle, and don’t say I didn’t warn you. Yeah. – (Inside the Labyrinth) (Sarah begins walking but there are no turns or anything.) Sarah: What do they mean “Labyrinth”? There aren’t any turns or corners or anything. This just goes on and on. (pause) Maybe it doesn’t. Maybe I’m just taking for granted that it does. (She begins to run, but she still finds no turns so she stops and beats her hands against the walls in frustration.) Worm: ‘Ello. Sarah: Did you say Hello? Worm: No, I said ‘Ello, but that’s close enough. Sarah: You’re a worm, aren’t you? Worm: Yeah, that’s right. Sarah: Do you know the way through this Labyrinth? Worm: Me? No, I’m just a worm. Sarah: Oh. Worm: Come inside and meet the Mrs. Sarah: No, thank you. But I have to solve this Labyrinth. There aren’t any turns or openings, it just goes on and on. Worm: It’s full of openings, it’s just you ain’t seen ‘em. Sarah: Where are they? Worm: There’s one right in front of you. Sarah: No, there isn’t. Worm: Come inside and have a nice cup of tea. Sarah: But there isn’t an opening. Worm: Of course there is. Try walking through it, you’ll see what I mean. Sarah: What? Worm: Go on, then. Sarah: That’s just a wall, there’s no way through. Worm: Things aren’t always what they seem in this place, so you can’t take anything for granted. (She tries it and realizes that she can walk through the wall.) Sarah: Hey! Worm: Hey! Hang on! Sarah: Thank you. That was incredibly helpful. Worm: But don’t go that way! Sarah: What was that? Worm: Don’t go that way. Never go that way! Sarah: Oh! Thanks! (Turns and goes the opposite direction into the wall.) Worm: If she had kept on going down that way, she’d have gone straight to that castle.

Ahh, Labyrinth. So relevant to life.
