It's from a book not a film but I like this quote from The Long Goodbye

"I like bars just after they open for the evening. When the air inside is still cool and clean and everything is shiny and the barkeep is giving himself that last look in the mirror to see if his tie is straight and his hair is smooth. I like the neat bottles on the bar back and the lovely shining glasses and the anticipation. I like to watch the man mix the first one of the evening and put it down on a crisp mat and put the little folded napkin beside it. I like to taste it slowly. The first quiet drink of the evening in a quiet bar—that's wonderful."

It's true there's no drink like the first drink.

I remember the first alcoholic drink I had. Half a McEwans Best Scotch. I was 16 and it was in a pub in Southwick. It took me about an hour to drink it and it tasted bloody awful. Why on earth I ever wanted to drink anything alcoholic after that.....but I did.

Tough opener that. I don't think I truly acquired the taste for alcohol until I was in my mid twenties and now I've acquired it a bit too well <laugh>

Apart from cheap cider, vodka and Glenfiddich they can all bugger off.

One final Chandler quote before I can't stop myself and spam your film thread with book quotes

"Alcohol is like love,” he said. “The first kiss is magic, the second is intimate, the third is routine. After that you take the girl’s clothes off."

Close, The Torrens, 16yr old, a pint of half & half, (scotch & exhibition iirc), very close!
 
Budd: I don't dodge guilt, and I don't jew out of paying my comeuppance.

Bill: Can't we just forget the past?

Budd: That woman deserves her revenge... And we deserve to die. (laughs) But, then again, so does she. So I guess we'll just see...won't we?

"You're trying to kill me."

"If I tried that your head would be splattered all over this feld. Now where's the girl?"
 
Bit hazzy on the details, but this quote has stuck with me for years.

From Deep Space Nine, Garrick, the Kardasian Tailor and O'Brien talking tactics while outnumbered.

Garrick, -- If possible shoot them in the back.

O'Brien -- You'd shoot a man in the back?

Garrick -- It's the safest way.
