Ben Affleck Famous Lines


Here are a few of our favorite lines from Ben Affleck.


Gavin Banek: (Changing Lanes):
Sometimes God likes to put two guys in a paper bag and just let 'em rip.

Daredevil: (Daredevil):
I'm not the bad guy, kid.

Rafe McCawley (Pearl Harbor):
"Not anxious to die, sir. Anxious to matter."

Holden McNeil (Chasing Amy):
"I love you. And not in a friendly way, although I think we're great friends. And not in a misplaced affection, puppy-dog way, although I'm sure that's what you'll call it. And it's not because you're unattainable. I love you. Very simple, very truly. You're the epitome of every attribute and quality I've ever looked for in another person. I know you think of me as just a friend, and crossing that line is the furthest thing from an option you'd ever consider. But I had to say it. I can't take this anymore. I can't stand next to you without wanting to hold you. I can't look into your eyes without feeling that longing you only read about in trashy romance novels. I can't talk to you without wanting to express my love for everything you are. I know this will probably queer our friendship -no pun intended- but I had to say it, because I've never felt this before, and I like who I am because of it. And if bringing it to light means we can't hang out anymore, then that hurts me. But I couldn't allow another day to go by without getting it out there, regardless of the outcome, which by the look on your face is to be the inevitable shoot-down. And I'll accept that. But I know some part of you is hesitating for a moment, and if there is a moment of hesitation, that means you feel something too. All I ask is that you not dismiss that -at least for ten seconds- and try to dwell in it. Alyssa, there isn't another soul on this planet who's ever made me half the person I am when I'm with you, and I would risk this friendship for the chance to take it to the next plateau. Because it's there between you and me. you can't deny that. And even if we never speak again after tonight, please know that I'm forever changed because of who you are and what you've meant to me, which -while I do appreciate it- I'd never need a painting of birds bought at a diner to remind me of."


Jim Young (Boiler Room):
"They say money can't buy happiness? Look at the smile on my face. Ear to ear, baby!"

Ben Holmes (Forces of Nature):
"I haven't known you that long, but I think there may be something wrong with you."

Holden McNeil (Chasing Amy):
"Curious about men? Well, I always wondered why my father watched Hee Haw."

AJ (Armageddon):
"Oh man. Well, we all gotta die, right? I'm the guy who gets to do it saving the world."

Ned Alleyn (Shakespeare in Love):
"Pay attention and you will see how genius creates a legend."

Chuckie (Good Will Hunting):
"But you know what the best part of my day is? The ten seconds before I knock on your door, 'cause I let myself think I might get there, and you'd be gone. I'd knock on the door and you wouldn't be there. You just left. Now I don't know much, but I know that."

Bartleby (Dogma):
"You know, here's what I don't get about you. You know for a fact that there is a God. You have been in his presence. He's spoken to you personally, and yet I just heard you claim to be an atheist."

Ned Alleyn (Shakespeare in Love):
"What is the play and what is my part?"
