Eric's House Of Ego

Here are the rules.

Answer only one quote.

If you answer more than one I will delete your reply. If there are quotes still not answered the next day I will open it up to any and all guesses.

Most weeks there is a theme. If there is not a theme I will tell you. The theme is open to guess even if you have guessed a quote.

The theme has been guessed, it is bio-pics. Bow down before the glory that is bammba_m, cause she got it and you didn't

Edit There is one ringer in here, theme-wise. A winky button to whoever gets it.

All anonymous answers will be deleted (hey, I'm obsessive, I want to know who guesses these). Oh, and don't guess as a reply to someone else's guess, on a busy day that makes it hard for me to spot your answer.
