We’ve got a pair of tickets to give away for Wednesday’s screening of Twin Peaks at the Hollywood Theatre. And pie! You get Random Order pie if you win this! They’re showing the fan-fucking-tastic pilot tomorrow complete with some damned good coffee and delish Double R-esque pie. Hit me with your favorite Twin Peaks quote in the comments and I’ll pick my favorite by the end of the day.
I’ll start out: “Leland, the time has come for you to seek the path. Your soul has set you face to face with the clear light and you are now about to experience it in its reality, wherein all things are like the void and cloudless sky and the naked, spotless intellect is like a transparent vacuum without circumference or center. Leland, in this moment, know yourself and abide in that state.”—Special Agent Dale Cooper
Twin Peaks pilot on Wednesday, March 7
Hollywood Theatre, 4122 NE Sandy
two episodes every Wednesday at 9:30 pm, $4
“There was a fish… in the percolator…”
Jack Nance’s delivery on that line is really amazing.
You know this is, excuse me, a DAMN fine cup of coffee.
“I’ve got good news. That gum you like is going to come back in style.”

“…”

There is a sadness in this world, for we are ignorant of many things. Yes, we are ignorant of many beautiful things — things like the truth. So sadness, in our ignorance, is very real. The tears are real. What is this thing called a tear? There are even tiny ducts — tear ducts — to produce these tears should the sadness occur. Then the day when the sadness comes — then we ask: “Will this sadness which makes me cry — will this sadness that makes me cry my heart out — will it ever end?” The answer, of course, is yes. One day the sadness will end. -log lady
Donna: “Laura, where do you go at night? What do you do?”
Laura: “Ha, ha, ha! Night time is my time!”
I would love to win these tickets because this is my husband:
friend: “I am so excited for the Twin Peaks festival! Will, do you like Twin Peaks enough to go?”
My Husband: “Is that a porn event?”
He needs to know!
Mr. Horne, I realize that your position in this fair community pretty well guarantees venality, insincerity, and a rather irritating method of expressing yourself. Stupidity, however, is not necessarily a inherent trait. Therefore, please listen closely – you can have a funeral any old time. You dig a hole, you plant a coffin. I, however, cannot perform these tests next year, next month, next week or tomorrow – I must perform them now. I got a lot of cutting and pasting to do, gentlemen, so why don’t you please return to your porch rockers and resume whittling.
I came here to kick ass and chew bubble gum and I’m all out of asses.
“Not enough sperm.”
“Gimme a doghnut.”

“Now you listen to me. While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is that I am a naysayer and hatchetman in the fight against violence. I pride myself in taking a punch and I’ll gladly take another because I choose to live my life in the company of Gandhi and King. My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method… is love. I love you Sheriff Truman.”
“Before we assume our respective roles in this enduring drama, just let me say–that, when these frail shadows we inhabit now have quit the stage, we’ll meet, and raise a glass again together, in Valhalla”
aaand all time favorites:
“It’s about moving beyond fear…looking at the world with love.” –Special Agent Dale Cooper
“…my son was standing there. He was happy, and carefree…clearly living a life of deep harmony and joy. We embraced–a warm, loving embrace. Nothing withheld. We were, in this moment, one. My vision ended. I awoke with a tremendous feeling of optimism and confidence in you and your future. That was my vision of you. I’m so glad I had this opportunity to share it with you (pause). I wish you nothing but the very best in all things.” Major Briggs
Laura: I’m gone. Long gone. Like a turkey in the corn.
James: You’re not a turkey. A turkey’s one of the dumbest birds on earth.
Laura: Gobble. Gobble. Gobble.
“Aces!”
Any line that makes me want to punch James Hurley in the dick. I love hating that guy.
Just yooooou (just you)
And I (and I)
Just yooooou (just you)
And I (and I)
Together forever
In love
In love

“The things I tell you will not be wrong.”
The Giant to Agent Cooper
“Harry, I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don’t plan it. Don’t wait for it. Just let it happen. It could be a new shirt at the men’s store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot black coffee.” -Agent Dale Cooper
This cherry pie is a MIRACLE!
“my log…saw something” (also: “i found a girl…she’s dead…wrapped in plastic”)
“Eddie, can you see my underpants in my shoes?”
-Nadine
