From 1943, Casablanca is a nearly perfect movie. Bogey & Bergman, the man who played the womanizing French police captain Renault, and the creepy Peter Lorre.

It is the story of a bitter, sardonic man living in an unbearable situation, forced to reexamine the story that he thought was his life. A love story, war story, and brilliantly witty story. Every line of the sharp dialogue is classic.

Do you know who I am?
I do. You're lucky the bar's open to you.

Ugarte to Rick: "I have many a friend in Casablanca, but somehow, just because you despise me, you are the only one I trust."

Ilsa: Play it once, Sam. For old time's sake.

Rick: I remember every detail. The Germans wore gray, you wore blue.

Rick: The wild finish. A guy standing on a station platform in the rain with a comical look in his face because his insides have been kicked out.

Laszlo: You know how you sound, Mr. Blaine? Like a man who's trying to convince himself of something he doesn't believe in his heart.

Renault: We mustn't underestimate "American blundering". I was with them when they "blundered" into Berlin in 1918.

Rick: Here's looking at you, kid.

It would take a miracle to get you out of Casablanca, and the Germans have outlawed miracles.

Rick: Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she walks into mine.

Rick: If that plane leaves the ground and you're not with him, you'll regret it. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life.

We'll always have Paris. We didn't have, we, we lost it until you came to Casablanca. We got it back last night.

Rick: Ilsa, I'm no good at being noble, but it doesn't take much to see that the problems of three little people don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world.

Rick: Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
