Movie quotes meme

I'm going to bet these will be easy, in part because my movie preferences are likely well-known, but here goes. Name the movie behind the quote (I was nice and didn't include any of the non-English films that I like on this list).

1. "Don't you sometimes wonder if it's worth all this? I mean what you're fighting for."
"You might as well question why we breathe. If we stop breathing, we'll die. If we stop fighting our enemies, the world will die." sweetmmeblue

2. "I'm sure you've discovered my deep and abiding interest in pain. Presently I'm writing the definitive work on the subject" feste_sylvain

3. "How do you shoot the devil in the back? What if you miss?" sweetmmeblue

4. "And I thought they was getting off. Didn't we have an intricate plan on how they was gonna be not here any more?" caulay

5. "Quite an experience to live in fear, isn't it? That's what it is to be a slave." hammercock

6. "that's the day I knew there was this entire life behind things, and... this incredibly benevolent force, that wanted me to know there was no reason to be afraid, ever. Video's a poor excuse, I know. But it helps me remember... and I need to remember... Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world I feel like I can't take it, like my heart's going to cave in." feste_sylvain

7. "Stampeding cattle."
"That's not much of a crime."
"Through the Vatican?"
"Kinky. Sign here." feste_sylvain

8. The future begins tomorrow (this is seen in the movie, but not actually spoken) feste_sylvain

9. "Sure, okay, I see Charlie Chan, Fu Manchu and a hundred howlin' monkey temples, and that's just for starters, right? Fine! I'm back! I'm ready, goddammit let me at 'em!" heinleinfan

10. "If on your journey, you should encounter God, God will be cut." mrf_arch

11. "All I want to do is graduate from high school, move to Europe, marry Christian Slater, and die. Now that might not sound too great to a sconehead like you, but I think it's swell. And now you show up and tell me I'm a member of the hairy mole club so you can THROW things at me?" talandra

12. "How odd that it should end this way for us after so many stimulating encounters. I almost regret it. Where shall I find a new adversary so close to my own level?"
"Try the local sewer." heinleinfan

13. "Colonel! Can you possibly imagine what is going to happen to you, your frame, outlook, way of life, and everything, when they learn that you have obstructed a telephone call to the President of the United States? Can you imagine? Shoot it off! Shoot! With a gun! That's what the bullets are for, you twit!" feste_sylvain

14. "They're coming outta the walls. They're coming outta the goddamn walls. Let's rock!" qwrrty

15. "It was as though this plan had been with him all his life, pondered through the seasons, now in his fifteenth year crystallized with the pain of puberty." sweetmmeblue

(I promise that the preponderance of violent imagery in these quotes is not related to Valentine's Day.)

Isn't #10 from Kill Bill?

You win! Very good. Hattori Hanzo to The Bride.

Excellent choice -- it's a tough quote to place until you know the source. I totally feel now like I should have gotten that one.

I agree it's hard to place. Tarantino gives most of the good speeches to The Bride and Bill, but I'm a sword freak and I love the myth of invincibility that comes with the blade.
