And I did love you, and I still do. Only I didn't realize it was love, because it was more than love but it wasn't just some stupid feeling in my stomach like everything else and I'll never love anyone as much as you, and I hate you. I hate you!

AFI #050 Tom Hanks as Jim Lovell from Apollo 13 (1995)
Jim Lovell:Well, between Jack's back taxes and the Fred Haise Show, I'd say that was a pretty successful broadcast.
CAPCOM: That was an excellent show, Odyssey.
Jack Swigert: Thank you very much, Houston.
CAPCOM: We've a couple of housekeeping procedures for you. We'd like you to roll right to 0-6-0 and null your rates.
Jack Swigert: Roger that. Rolling right, 0-6-0.
CAPCOM: And then if you could give your oxygen tanks a stir.
Jack Swigert: Roger that. [flips switches]
[Sparking, explosion]
[Alarm buzzing]
Jack Swigert: Hey, we've got a problem here.
Jim Lovell: What did you do?
Jack Swigert: Nothing. I stirred the tanks.
CAPCOM: Uh, this is Houston. Say again, please?
Jim Lovell: Houston, we have a problem.

The bolded line is ranked #50 in the American Film Institute's list of the top 100 movie quotations in American cinema.
In real life, the quote was "Houston, we've had a problem." Apollo Expeditions to the Moon, ch. 13.1, by James A. Lovell. The original phrase pronounced by Jack Swigert, "Houston, we've had a problem here" and then repeated by Lovell, "Houston, we've had a problem", was altered to a present-tense in the film script.
