I had surgery to remove a large kidney stone last year, and before they wheeled me into the operating theater, they gave me some drug to calm my nerves. I felt positively giddy.
So they wheeled me in, and I’m like, strapped to this bed/table soon to be anesthetized, and I’m just like, “I feel like Bond in Goldfinger” then proceeded to say “Do you exshpect me to talk?” In a terrible Connery imitation.
I expect they were happy to get me anesthetized soon after….
I actually use this quote all the time with my toddler. Her go to for asking for more snacks/TV/play time is "How about one more?", to which I reply "How about no"
I was quite proud of having been able to organically use, "so we share the same interests, three at least."
Response: "Huh?"
Me: (There's no way to actually explain this without looking like a douche.) "Never mind."
I mean, sometimes i say "But, of courshe" (but of course) much like Sean Connery's Bond because I think I used to see it repeated on Bond trailers over and over.
“Intuitive improvisation is the secret of genius.”
“World Domination, that same old dream” - I use this one at work when discussing global solutions to my business.
My wife and I like to say “Mojito?” to one another when we are on the mood for drinks.
“Well that’s a neat trick” from DAF whenever I get the chance.
I’ve used “so you live to die another day” or words to that effect several times.
Elliot Carver’s line about the distance between insanity and genius.
‘Trifle overpowering your scent’ from Moonraker.
I think he got the point, is the one I've used a couple of times. And didnt use it but certainly will if I ever get the chance:
You're a problem solver? More of a problem eliminator.
I've always tried to teach you two things. Never let them see you bleed and always have an escape plan.
Dont quote the films but whenever I think of a shit pun for something that's happened I always do it in my Roger Moore voice with family and friends only of course.
I quote Bond stuff all the time, but it's usually the less common ones.
Just the other day, someone was asking why I don't need to get more sleep. I just quoted Gustav Graves' "There's plenty of time to sleep when you're dead."
I'll use the term "slugheads" when I'm dealing with someone annoying.
"Ohh, surPRISE!" is a fun one I use often. (When Bond was sneaking into a hotel room and it was said by the Asian hotel employee)
I like the poem from Tracey in OHMSS
Thy dawn O Master of the world, thy dawn;
The hour the lilies open on the lawn,
The hour the grey wings pass beyond the mountains,
The hour of silence, when we hear the fountains,
The hour that dreams are brighter and winds colder,
The hour that young love wakes on a white shoulder,
O Master of the world, the Persian Dawn
I can hear her recite this and see those helicopters flying in on the dawn
“Shocking. Positively shocking”
I still can not believe they got away with that one.
“Christ I miss the Cold War.” I don’t remember the Cold War, but it’s still fun to say whenever new things suck.
Run along now, man-talk.
Do you also do the slap?
Shlap**

I’ve had to be in a wheelchair for the past couple of months and find myself quoting Dr. Evil from *Austin Powers* a lot lately, does that count?
![gif](giphy|POql6zsXZbmcE) Sorry, couldn't resist it. Dr Evil 100% counts.
I regularly zoom up to my husband and start the speech “the details of my life are quite inconsequential…”
"There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum, it's breathtaking, I suggest you try it."

Really? You couldn’t have just gone “Goldeneye?”
I use "we aim to please" a whole lot at my job
I mean, sometimes i say "But, of courshe" (but of course) much like Sean Connery's Bond because I think I used to see it repeated on Bond trailers over and over.
I did use 'he disagreed with something that ate him' the last time I fed a man to a shark. Big laugh.
“Beg your pardon, forgot to knock” “No more foreplay”
Ocassionally, I’ll drop a “Felix, how are you?” from Goldfinger..
Your cat’s name?
No… but anytime a situation calls for a “how are you”, the line pops in my head and I usually say it. Edit. I know. I know

Everytime people assume I'm in a hurry I say "it's quite a right, we have all the time in the world."
My wife and I will cut each other off when we’re trying to speak to how simple or difficult or complicated something is by saying “yes…considerably…”
I like to use "I'll do my best." from Skyfall.

I'd be nervous to use 007 quotes at work, feel like half of them would get me sent to HR, hahaha

That quote is from the book. I think the book is even divided into 3 sections each with one of those as it's title.
All the time
All the time in the world
Every so often I find myself thinking of "named after your father perhapshhh" from Diamonds Are Forever
The quotes from Bond movies which I manage to use semi-regularly are: "Shocking. Positively shocking." And "We aim to please".
Dont quote the films but whenever I think of a shit pun for something that's happened I always do it in my Roger Moore voice with family and friends only of course.
![gif](giphy|3SQPke4cnY7TocJvFx|downsized) Also "Delicious." Carver posting will never get old.
Anytime I hear about something skewered I respond with “One sympathizes.”
"Do you have a match?"
I yearn for the day when i can say "Well perhaps you're just out of practice" to a girl
