Amazing Grace Movie Quotes

John Newton: Although my memory's fading, I remember two things very clearly. I'm a great sinner and Christ is a great Savior.

Barbara Wilberforce: It seems to me, that if there is a bad taste in your mouth, you spit it out. You don't constantly swallow it back.

Barbara Wilberforce: You still have passion! That matters more!

Thomas Clarkson: [to the baby in his arms] I was forced to recite that poem when I was a lad. I have no idea what it means, but I suppose you should have to learn it too.
 

John Newton: God sometimes does His work with gentle drizzle, not storms. Drip. Drip. Drip.

William Wilberforce: I had heard your sight was fading.
John Newton: Well, now it's faded altogether. I never do things by halves. God decided I'd seen enough.

John Newton: [through tears] I'm weeping. I couldn't weep till I wrote this.

Lord Charles Fox: When people speak of great men, they think of men like Napoleon - men of violence. Rarely do they think of peaceful men. But contrast the reception they will receive when they return home from their battles. Napoleon will arrive in pomp and in power, a man who's achieved the very summit of earthly ambition. And yet his dreams will be haunted by the oppressions of war. William Wilberforce, however, will return to his family, lay his head on his pillow and remember: the slave trade is no more.

Duke of Clarence: Noblesse oblige.
Lord Tarleton: What the bloody hell does that mean?
Duke of Clarence: It means: my nobility obliges me to recognize the virtue of an exceptional commoner

'Cause I want to hold yours too
We'll be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds"

Life doesn't hurt until you think about how much things have changed, who you lost along the way, and how much of it was your fault.

NEVER regret something that once made you smile.

Never be someone's option while letting them be your priority.

Nobody said it was going to be easy; they just promise that it'd be worth it.

you're born an original, don't die a copy.
