Best Movie Quotes: Go

Go (1999) features a great argument between Taye Diggs and Breckin Meyer while they are on a road trip to Vegas. It might be the highlight of the whole movie:

Tiny: Yo, I told you, my mother's mother's mother was black!

Marcus: Your mother's mother's mother, f*** - this ain't "Roots", mutha... Man, I wanna see a picture of this Nubian princess. If you were any less black, you would be clear.

I remembered this scene today while viewing an exhibit on Ancient Nubia at the Oriental Institute and started cracking up, much to the disapproval of old ladies sipping white wine and cheese.
