Poll: IMDb Poll Board Favorite TV Speech

Rami Malek in Mr. Robot (2015)

"Is it that we collectively thought Steve Jobs was a great man, even when we knew he made billions off the backs of children? Or maybe it's that it feels like all our heroes are counterfeit? The world itself just one big hoax, spamming each other with our burning commentary bulls*** masquerading this insight; our social media faking this intimacy. Or is it that we voted for this? Not with our rigged elections, but with our things, our property, our money. I'm not saying anything new, we all know why we do this, not because Hunger Games books makes us happy, but because we want to be sedated. Because it's painful not to pretend, because we're cowards. F@*k society." from: Mr. Robot (2015) KhaledKalache's favorite.

Burgess Meredith in The Twilight Zone (1959)

"There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone." from: The Twilight Zone (1959) Dweezer's favorite.

Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner in Star Trek (1966)

"Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its 5-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before." from: Star Trek (1966) jalapenoman's favorite.

Richard D. Winters in Band of Brothers (2001)

"I treasure my remark to my grandson who asked, "Grandpa, were you a hero in the war?" Grandpa said, "No... but I served in a company of heroes"." from: Band of Brothers (2001) Dibyayan_Chakravorty's favorite.

Danny Pudi in Community (2009)

''Yes, yes, yes. There is skill to it. More importantly, it has to be joyful, effortless, fun. TV defeats it's own purpose when it's pushing an agenda, or trying to defeat other TV or being proud or ashamed of itself for existing. It's TV, it's comfort. It's a friend you've known so well, and for so long you just let it be with you and it needs to be okay for it to have a bad day or phone in a day. And it needs to be okay for it to get on a boat with Levar Burton and never come back. Because eventually, it all will.'' from: Community (2009) borimor's favorite.

Mira Furlan in Babylon 5 (1993)

''This is Ambassador Delenn of the Minbari. Babylon 5 is under our protection. Withdraw or be destroyed! ... Why not? Only one human captain has ever survived battle with a Minbari Fleet. He is behind me. You are in front of me. If you value your lives, be somewhere else!'' from: Babylon 5 (1993) Dan_dassow's favorite.

Peter Dinklage in Game of Thrones (2011)

"Don't fight for a king. Don't fight for his kingdoms. Don't fight for honor, don't fight for glory, don't fight for riches, because you won't get any. This is your city Stannis means to sack. That's your gate he's ramming. If he gets in it will be your house that burns. Your gold he steals, your women he rapes. Those are brave men knocking at our door. Let's go kill them!" from: Game of Thrones (2011) Djesika's favorite.

Jeff Daniels in The Newsroom (2012)

"It's not the greatest country in the world, professor, that's my answer. We sure used to be. We stood up for what was right. We fought for moral reasons, we passed laws, struck down laws for moral reasons. We waged wars on poverty, not poor people. We sacrificed, we cared about our neighbors, we put our money where our mouths were, and we never beat our chest. We built great big things, made ungodly technological advances, explored the universe, cured diseases, and we cultivated the world's greatest artists and the world's greatest economy. We reached for the stars, acted like men. We aspired to intelligence; we didn't belittle it; it didn't make us feel inferior. We didn't identify ourselves by who we voted for in the last election, and we didn't scare so easy. We were able to be all these things and do all these things because we were informed. By great men, men who were revered. The first step in solving any problem is recognizing there is one. America is not the greatest country in the world anymore.'' from: The Newsroom (2012) TsarStepan's favorite.

Peter Dinklage, Jack Gleeson, Dean-Charles Chapman, and Sophie Turner in Game of Thrones (2011)

''I did not kill Joffrey, but I wish that I had! Watching your vicious bastard die gave me more relief than a thousand lying whores!, I wish I was the monster you think I am! I wish I had enough poison for the whole pack of you! I would gladly give my life to watch you all swallow it!.'' from: Game of Thrones (2011) peaspot's favorite.

Miguel Ferrer and Michael Ontkean in Twin Peaks (1990)

''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.'' from: Twin Peaks (1990) Eagles90's favorite.

Peter Capaldi in Doctor Who (2005)

''The Brothers Grimm. Lovely fellas. They’re on my darts team. According to them, there’s this emperor, and he asks the shepherd’s boy, “How many seconds in eternity?”. The shepherd’s boy says, “There’s this mountain of pure diamond. It takes an hour to climb it, and an hour to go around it. Every hundred years, a little bird comes. It sharpens its beak on the diamond mountain. And when the entire mountain is chiseled away, the first second of eternity will have passed.” You must think that’s a hell of a long time. Personally, I think that’s a hell of a bird.'' from: Doctor Who (2005) Pictoris's favorite.

Joseph Mazzello in The Pacific (2010)

''Never run when you can walk, never walk when you can stand, never stand when you can sit, never sit when you can lay down, never lay down when you can sleep, and NEVER pass a supply of clean water.'' from: The Pacific (2010) sir-mauri's favorite.

Andreas Katsulas in Babylon 5 (1993)

''No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever. There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom. Against that power tyrants and dictators cannot stand. The Centauri learned that lesson once. We will teach it to them again. Although it take a thousand years, we will be free.'' from: Babylon 5 (1993) alioth4's favorite.
