Favorite ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ Quotes

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the movie, but I think it was one of the greatest from the 80s and full of unforgettable scenes and quotes.  The news of the directer, producer, and writer, John Hughes, passing away has caused the news to mention it today as one of his works, and also spurred this post of my favorite quotes from the movie.

Cameron Frye: The 1961 Ferrari, two-fifty GT California. Less than a hundred were made. My father spent three years restoring this car. It is his love, it is his passion . . .
Ferris Bueller: It is his fault he didn’t lock the garage.

Ferris Bueller: Cameron has never been in love – at least, nobody’s ever been in love with him. If things don’t change for him, he’s gonna marry the first girl he lays, and she’s gonna treat him like shit, because she will have given him what he has built up in his mind as the end-all, be-all of human existence. She won’t respect him, ’cause you can’t respect somebody who kisses your ass. It just doesn’t work.

Ferris Bueller: Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Cameron Frye: What’d I do?
Ferris Bueller: You killed the car.

Cameron Frye: I am not going to sit on my ass as the events that affect me unfold to determine the course of my life. I’m going to take a stand. I’m going to defend it. Right or wrong, I’m going to defend it.

Ferris Bueller: Pardon my French, but Cameron is so tight that if you stuck a lump of coal up his ass, in two weeks you’d have a diamond.
