It’s hard to believe it’s been more than seven years since the Chuck Knoblauch / left field game. We were there. Were you? The Twins and Yankees have won exactly the same number of World Series titles since then. If you attend any of the four games this weekend, you would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn’t remind the Bronx Bombers of that fact, at least as it pertains to them. Also, we would be remiss if we didn’t note that the Lynx might win more games this season than the Wolves did. That would be great news for the 3-0 Lynx; it would be embarrassing to the Wolves, who play 82 games while their feline counterparts only play 34. But enough about sports. It’s Friday, and you know what that means: Movie quotes. These are all “moment of truth” quotes. Many of them are from some of the greatest movies ever made. No. 1 and No. 2 are definitely exceptions.

1. I’m gonna take you to the bank, Senator Trent. To the blood bank!

2. Pain heals. Chicks dig scars. Glory … lasts forever.

3. Hasta la vista, baby.

4. I’d like to think that the last thing that went through his head, other than that bullet, was to wonder how the hell Andy Dufresne ever got the best of him.

5. I’ll make him an offer he can’t refuse.

6. Go ahead, make my day.

7. Old age, it’s the only disease …that you don’t look forward to being cured of.

8. What do you mean, I’m funny? …You mean the way I talk? What? … Funny how? I mean, what’s funny about it? … But I’m funny how? I mean, funny like I’m a clown? I amuse you? I make you laugh?

9. Mr. President, I’m not saying we wouldn’t get our hair mussed, but I do say no more than ten to twenty million killed, tops, that is, depending on the breaks.

10. I do wish we could chat longer, but I’m having an old friend for dinner.
