Nostalgia has nothing to do with the fact that these lines haven’t aged a day. No… The only valid explanation for their timelessness is that these film quotes are absolutely iconic!

As well as making your yearbook unique, doing this is sure to put a smile on your face by taking you back a few years as you remember the madness and character of some of your classmates.
