From John Wayne as Rooster Cogburn in 'True Grit', on being insulted just before the gunfight. Grabs the reins in his teeth, rifle in one hand and pistol in the other: 

'Fill your hands you sonovabitch' Cool

================================================
From Sly Stallone as Deke Da Silva in 'Nighthawks'

Knocks out a mugger by hitting him in the face with a dustbin lid. Grabs his collar and dragging him unconscious along the ground, he says 'You have the right to remain silent' Laugh

Let's see how much of this great artistic scene gets censored. Mods... I'm only quoting and the context is key! Dennis Hopper and Christpher Walken in "True Romance":

COCCOTTI
You know, Sicilians are great liars. The best in the world. I’m Sicilian. My father was the world heavyweight champion of Sicilian liars. From growing up with him I learned the pantomime. There are seventeen different things a guy can do when he lies to give himself away. A guy’s got seventeen pantomimes. A woman’s got twenty, a guy’s got seventeen. But if you know ‘em like ya know your own face, they beat lie detectors all to hell. Now what we got here is a little game of show and tell. You don’t wanna show me nothin’. But you’re tellin’ me everything. I know you know where they are. So tell me, before I do some damage you won’t walk away from.

CLIFF
Could I have one of those Chesterfields now?

COCCOTTI
Sure.

CLIFF
Got a match?
Oh, don’t bother. I got one.
(he lights the cigarette)
You’re Sicilian, huh?

COCCOTTI
Yes, Sicilian.

CLIFF
You know I read a lot. Especially about things that have to do with history. I find that **** fascinating. Here is a fact, I don’t know whether you know or not, Sicilians were spawned by ****s.

COCCOTTI
Come again?

CLIFF
It’s a fact. You see, Sicilians have black blood pumpin’ through their hearts. If you don’t believe me, you can look it up. Hundreds and hundreds of years ago the Moors conquered Sicily. And the Moors are ****s. You see way back then, Sicilians were like wops from northern Italy. They all had blond hair and blue eyes. But, then the Moors moved in there, they changed the whole country. They did so much ****’ with the Sicilian women, that they changed the whole blood-line for ever. That’s why blond hair and blue eyes became black hair and dark skin. You know, it’s absolutely amazing to think that to this day, hundreds of years later, Sicilians still carry that **** gene. No I’m quotin’ history. It’s written. It’s a fact.

COCCOTTI
(laughing)
I love this guy.

CLIFF
Your ancestors are ****s. Your great, great, great, great, great-grandmother **** a ****, and she had a half-**** kid. Now, if that is a fact. Tell me, am I lyin’? Cause you, you’re part eggplant.:)
