It is."
Same movie, she said, "When I'm good, I'm very good, but when I'm bad, I'm better."
Lizzie, those quotes are both well known Mae West quotes, but I have no idea from which movie or if they were used in several movies. You may as well tell us.

Mae West had a lot of good lines. These 2 were from I'M NO ANGEL. She received sole credit for the story and screenplay. The 2nd and last movie she did with Cary Grant.

Thanks Lizzie. I watch a lot of old movies. I especially like those from about the mid-40's to the mid-50's. I think I've seen most of the movies that Bogie and Bacall made, and also those with Hepburn and Tracy. This one was from the 30's, almost 90 years ago. If I ever saw "I'm No Angel", it's gone from my memory now. Mae West was some dame though.
A refresher. Here is how this is supposed to work.
1. Post a great movie line that you remember.
2. Just the movie line. Don't identify the movie.
3. Let someone else in a subsequent post try to identify the movie.
4. Try not to use Google. This is a memory game.

"Ha, don't kid yourself. It's not that organized."
Hint: Think Nike. Think Adidas.
Answer: Another Robert Redford movie - Sneakers from 1992.

Saw this movie again recently, too. That was a great line.
How about an easy one?"Dear God, you made many, many poor people.
I realize, of course, that it's no shame to be poor
But it's no great honor, either."

That one was almost too easy. Fiddler on the Roof.

Wreck it Ralph 2?
I just watched one of my favorite movies. Here's the quote."I apologize... for not being entirely honest with you. I apologize for not revealing my true feelings. I apologize, sir, for not telling you sooner that you're a degenerate, sadistic old man. And you can go to hell before I apologize to you now or ever again!"

Wreck it Ralph 2?"
No. I don't know that one. Had to look up Ralph 2. I don't watch animations/cartoons very often.

Think college students and the usual crassness that goes with those movies. Since it was 2000, it involved mailing a video tape.

You are correct, sir!
Continuing the Christmas theme. "Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Kiss my ass. Kiss his ass. Kiss your ass. Happy Hanukkah."
Lizzie wrote: "“It's supposed to be a challenge, that's why they call it a shortcut. If it was easy it would just be the way.”"Since no one has guessed it - despite the few hints I could think of - the movie was "Roadtrip".
In the Christams theme,“I planned out our whole day: First, we’ll make snow angels for two hours, and then we’ll go ice skating, and then we’ll eat a whole roll of Toll-House cookie dough as fast as we can, and then we’ll snuggle.”
From one of my favorite Christmas movies - "Who gave you permission to tell Charlie there was no Santa Claus? I think if we're going to destroy our son's delusions, I should be a part of it."
