The 160 Greatest Arnold Schwarzenegger Quotes of All Time

After our resident video editor, hh edited together the wildly successful 100 Cheesiest Movie Quotes of All Time last January, it was only logical to give the star of that video his own show, so to speak. No one in the history of cinema owns as many hilariously cheesy one-liners as the current governor of California: Arnold Schwarzenegger. He’s made a career out of making his audiences cringe with delight, from Conan the Barbarian to Batman & Robin to Kindergarten Cop and two Terminator movies, Arnie has delivered some of the most painfully memorable lines in movie history. It’s that very ability to deliver a 5-second crowd-pleasing sound bite that’s made the man so successful in politics.

And so, it is with great pleasure, that the illustrious hh brings you The 160 Greatest Arnold Schwarzenegger Quotes of all time. It’s a brilliant exercise in cringe management. Enjoy.

    Oh, hh, I just love you so much.

    *sheds tear*

    I'm particularly happy that you included, "Now, we're goink to play a waaanderful game called Who ees My Daddy and What Does He Do."

    And all of those quotes from Batman and Robin had me laughing out loud. Pure genius. Pure. Genius.

    Damn, he's a bad actor, but you can't deny his onscreen charisma. Let's face it. Arnold stuck to what was best for him, short sound bites.

    There aren't words, hh. Ahnuld, you magnificent bastard.

    Posted by: branded at March 30, 2010 3:00 PM

    hh, that was SUMPTUOUS.

    8:31 made me BRAY with laughter. Hot damn you're great.

    fucking. genius.
    i could watch that over & over & over.

    Posted by: gem at March 30, 2010 3:17 PM

    Ah, End of Days. A delightful movie all covered in cheese.

    Posted by: badkittyuno at March 30, 2010 3:25 PM

    I wonder if Ahnuld learned how to punctuate lines with bold eyebrow movements at the Actor's Studio or if it's the unbridled Austrian in him.

    Posted by: Kballs at March 30, 2010 3:25 PM

    Oh man this is absolute genius. I must share it with the world!

    Posted by: figgy at March 30, 2010 3:27 PM

    I think I'll play this every time I go to sleep.

    Posted by: figgy at March 30, 2010 3:27 PM

    I'm so glad that "rubber baby buggy bumpers" from Last Action Hero and "So who are you, man? SHIT." from Kindergarten Cop were included in that video. I love Schwarzenegger movies irrationally. The only one I can't watch over and over is Batman and Robin.

    Posted by: duckandcover at March 30, 2010 3:35 PM

    Bwahahaha-wait, no "Get to da choppa!"? I feel cheated.

    Posted by: the_wakeful at March 30, 2010 3:35 PM

    the_wakeful, it's in there.

    Posted by: duckandcover at March 30, 2010 3:36 PM

    I admit, I'm more than a little erect.

    Posted by: admin at March 30, 2010 3:39 PM

    hh, I love your work. You've made me like Ahnuld again.

    Crucial Omission:

    "Uplink, underground. Uplink, underground. You say that one more time, I'm going to uplink your ass. And then YOU'LL be underground."

    This made me remember how much I quoted Kindergarten Cop with my cousins when we were younger. Now I'm going to call my cousin and see if she wants to hang out even though I haven't talked to her in 2 months.

    Thank you hh, touching lives the way you never thought you could.

    Posted by: michaelceratops at March 30, 2010 3:44 PM

    duckandcover, K, I'll take your word for it. I blame my scatterbrainyness today on how drunk I am. It's honestly pretty impressive. Sorry I ever doubted you, hh.

    Posted by: the_wakeful at March 30, 2010 3:45 PM

    I think my fave bit was the 'Mack! Mack! Mack!'

    And after watching all that it's clear to me that his best film was Predator. I need to watch that again soon.

    Flawless.

    I'm shocked he even had a total of 160 lines, nevermind quotable ones

    Posted by: greg at March 30, 2010 3:59 PM

    Good god.

    hh, you are my hero. This is like the best moments of my entire youth's viewing edited into one glorious montage. Thank you!

    Good Lord, hh.
    What had been an ordinary Tuesday just became A GLORIOUS Day! I loves me some A.S. and never get tired of his movies or the cheeseball lines.

    Posted by: Spender at March 30, 2010 5:50 PM

    I forwarded this to several friends of mine. One did remind me of one of my favorites that did not make the cut from Eraser.

    Arnold is helping Vanessa Williams destroy all of her identification before she goes underground, and she's distraught over losing who she is. Arnold dismisses the license, the credit cards, etc., and as he points to her heart he earnestly consoles her with: "What you are is in here."

    I was also always partial to the frustrated statement to Pamela Reed in Kindergarten Cop (not verbatim): "You are the one who should be reading books about bears who go shopping!"

    I'm sure there are many more I'm forgetting. Minor quibbles inside, this really is excellent and cleverly edited.

    Posted by: DarthCorleone at March 30, 2010 6:04 PM

    that is the definition of art.

    Posted by: adam at March 30, 2010 7:41 PM

    Yay, another hh video!

    I know it's probably one of the most overused quotes, but damn if I don't love yelling, "It's not a TOO-MAH!" whenever I can.

    Posted by: Meli Mel at March 30, 2010 7:48 PM

    Twas truly class, but you left off a couple.

    "Whassa matta Dillon, CIA got you pushing too many pencils?"

    Also more pertinently: "What did you do with Sully?" "I let him go".

    But they're minor quibbles, great job.

    Posted by: Bob at March 30, 2010 8:12 PM

    Thanks for the comments everyone, much appreciated!

    Regarding the omissions, it's true theres plenty missing, the man is simply a gold-mine for quotes and I could comfortably reel off another 100 that could have been included.

    Initially, I thought by increasing the total of quotes from 100 to 150-200 I could easily cover all the bases and squeeze all Arnies goodness into the alloted ten minutes but I quickly found out how naive that was. The guy literally has one-liners coming out of his arse and I was spoilt for choice. The cutting room floor (always wanted to say that!) is awash with gems!

    The worst omission and the one that hurt me most was from Last Action Hero. Picture the scene, it's an empty frame, your on a rooftop ledge, its pouring of rain, you hear a 'click' noise off-screen and then from out of nowhere Arnold pops up and the camera zooms towards his face in dramatic fashion and he says...

    "Gee... did you made a movie mistake... you forgot to reload the damn gun!".

    The delivery just kills me every time but like many many other brilliant quotes (and for various different reasons) it just had to be cut, such is the way of these things. Have to be totally ruthless!

    Posted by: hh at March 30, 2010 10:30 PM

    First off, well done.

    And... how do you get all these clips, humongous dvd collection? online searching?

    I also hope you get compensation, because this is a ridiculous amount of work.

    Posted by: e at March 31, 2010 12:17 AM

    God help me If I ever have influence over people in the film sector; I will seriously attempt ret-conning Last Action Hero as a brilliant piece of counter-culture film, with a deep, biting satirical message.

    First off, that is genius, once again hh.

    I've seen most of those movies in French. And when he is dubbed, Arnold doesn't sound stupid. I mean the lines themselves are still cheestastic in French, but he definitely doesn't sound like a stroke victim.

    I and my amphibian people, deprived of his splendid austrian accent, see him differently than you do I guess. To us he's just charismatic, but not that illiterate.

    Posted by: rg at March 31, 2010 1:14 AM

    I sat through that giggling the whole time. Thanks, hh.

    "Asswhore". Pure comedic genius.

    I still wonder how he could have lived in the US the whole time and not lose his atrocious accent. Luckily, he's dubbed around here. Makes his movies more watchable.

    Posted by: FabMax at March 31, 2010 4:34 AM

    Hey, great timing. I was working at the Hollywood Bowl today (that is, yesterday) for the Paul McCartney concert and Schwarzenneger was there. Alas, I didn't see him, but there were a LOT of CHP officers around. As for Paul, he's still got it, but he sang off-key three times in the same song (all in the same chord, too) and a few other times as well. I dread growing old.

    Er...otherwise, great job, hh!

    Posted by: vic at March 31, 2010 4:45 AM

    hh, excellent again. Always appreciated.

    Question: any idea how you're "100 Cheesiest Movie Quotes" vid has over 1 million views, and some of the other ones are barely in the thousands? These vids must be viewed by all!

    Posted by: Mick J at March 31, 2010 6:43 AM

    HH, I adore you for this. This video is so well made and so hysterical, it is priceless and I want to have your virtual babies as thanks

    Posted by: Smee at March 31, 2010 6:49 AM

    This is beyond brilliant! I would buy this on DVD! Thank you for the effort, I love it.

    Last Action Hero is a misunderstood masterpiece. If that kid actor hadn't sucked so bad, it would be considered a classic.

    Posted by: The Mutt at March 31, 2010 10:54 PM

    Love this! Genius!

    Posted by: onlywords2playw at April 1, 2010 12:12 AM

    They played some of the video on Attack of the Show on G4, but they didn't mention Pajiba. Boo.

    Posted by: quoipourquoi at April 1, 2010 1:05 AM

    Hey, this made IMDb's Hit List! They even credited Pajiba for it!

    Posted by: vic at April 1, 2010 4:47 AM

    1. It's Showtime

    Most glaring omission: "The bridge is out!" That one really needs to be in there.

    Posted by: Burt Rick at April 1, 2010 5:02 PM

    barry-

    1. running man
    2. predator
    3. true lies

    99% sure on those...

    Posted by: dan at April 1, 2010 10:14 PM

    "Let's Party" is from Commando. Dan is right on the other two.

    Posted by: Leigh at April 2, 2010 12:08 AM

    THE BRIDGE IS OWT!!!!!!!

    Also, one of the most BADASS lines ever...

    "If it bleeds, we can kill it."

    Arnold Rocks.

    Posted by: brad burkley at April 2, 2010 1:04 AM

    nice work. My particular favorite isn't there though. In End of Days, Arnold trying to be a serious actor "I wasn't fucking there!!"

    Posted by: Marty at April 2, 2010 1:49 AM
