Quote-Unquote.

Eekz. It has been a while aye. All my coal's been getting dumped into another engine, viz, studying. At least I am trying. Hence blogging has been losing steam. Now that I am done with analogies, let's get down to business. ;)

I love the movie "Independence Day". The last part where Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum escape from the mother ship and crash land is a bit exaggerated. But then I am not complaining about those 5 minutes 'cause the rest of the movie was really good! :)

My favourite scene would definitely be the one in which Bill Pullman, as the President of the United States of America, delivers a speech to motivate his people. And heck, he does it well! Makes you wonder when you'd ever come across one like that in real life.

So this time I'm taking an easy way out and just quote it. Hope you enjoy it as much as I've everytime I've heard it.

"Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. "Mankind." That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom... Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution... but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: "We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight!" We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!"---courtesy imdb.com
