Michael Douglas as Bill Foster in Falling Down. Here he confronts a construction worker over public sector union make work projects.
Bill Foster: What are you doing to the street?
Construction Worker: We're fixing it! What the Hell does it look like?
Bill Foster: Two days ago it was fine. Are you telling me the street fell apart in two days?
Construction Worker: Well, I guess so.
Bill Foster: Pardon me, but that's bullshit. You see, I don't think anything's wrong with the street! I think you're just trying to justify your inflated budgets! I know how it works! If you don't spend the projected amount this year, you don't get the same amount next year! Now, I want you to admit, THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE STREET!

A clash of cultures in the movie classic Bridge on the River Kwai. A Japanese commander orders a group of captured British officers to perform manual labor at a World War II prison camp in Thailand. Pride and belief in proper protocol brings about a deadly stand off!
"You speak to me of code?! What code? The coward's code. What do you know of the soldier's code, of Bushido? Nothing!! You are unworthy of commanding!"

Michael Douglas as Gordon Gekko in Wall Street...
Gordon Gekko: "I'm talking about liquid. Rich enough to have your own jet. Rich enough not to waste time. Fifty, a hundred million dollars, buddy. A player. Or nothing."

Awesome scene from a great movie.
