"Look at that sunset. A sunset's a beautiful thing alright. Its like the daytime didn't want to end, isn't it? It's like the daytime was gonna put up a big scrap! Set the world on fire, to keep the nighttime from creepin' on."

This quote gives me shivers every time I watch the movie. :)

I can't remember it verbatim, but I love the boy talk between William Holden and Cliff Robertson, when they first meet up. Holden talks about having to 'pay' for his ride with two women, who then tried to rob him. It makes me laugh every time.
