-->I've walked across the Sun. I've seen events so tiny and so fast they hardly can be said to have occurred at ''all'', but ''you''... you are a ''man''. And this world's ''smartest'' man means no more to me than does its smartest ''termite''.
[[AC:{{Film}}]]
* Roy Batty's speech in ''Film/BladeRunner''.
--> "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain."
* Alan gives a much nastier list of experiences in ''Film/{{Jumanji}}'' when he explains exactly what Judy and Peter are getting themselves into.
-->You think that mosquitoes, monkeys, and lions are bad? That is just the beginning. I've seen things you've only seen in your nightmares. Things you can't even imagine. Things you can't even see. There are things that hunt you in the night. Then something screams. Then you hear them eating, and you hope to God you aren't dessert. Afraid? You don't know what afraid is. You will not last five minutes without me."
* Notably subverted in ''Film/TheGhostAndTheDarkness'', where GreatWhiteHunter Remington has a quote about how time steals away many of the memories that would otherwise be part of one of these speeches.
-->So many things flash by and at that moment you say "Oh yeah, this is gonna stay with me. Surely. I will never forget this dawn. This hunt. This passion." And then... it's all gone.
* ''Film/SecondhandLions'': Hub at one point grabs a hotheaded youth by the throat and tells him who he is and what he's done, including seeing the headwaters of the Nile and tribes of natives no white man had seen before.
* Han Solo gives one of these to young Luke Skywalker in ''Film/StarWarsANewHope'', poo-pooing the concept of The Force: "Kid, I've flown from one end of this galaxy to the other. Seen a lot of strange stuff. But I've never seen anything to make me believe there's some all-powerful force controlling ''everything''. No mystical energy field controls ''my'' destiny." This speech neatly gauges how cynical and faithless Han Solo is at that point.
* ''Film/GoodWillHunting'' has a speech like this except Maguire is using the speech to show Will that he isn't as smart as he thinks he is.

Added DiffLines:
Some people feel the need to reminisce about the busy, exotic and event-filled lives they have lived. These reminisces tend to follow a list pattern, such as "I've dined with the Maharaja, I've gone over Niagara Falls in a spoon, I've run a fortune-500 company" etc.
Sometimes used by someone who as SeenItAll.
Used for a number of reasons:
* To show someone has lived a full and satisfying life, especially if they are about to die.
* Conversely to show that someone who is about to die shouldn't because they have so much useful experience (in this case it's often another character who recounted said list of experience)
* As part of a BadAssBoast.
* When added "...But I've never seen/experience (a certain thing)" at the end, it expresses how extraordinary/impossible said certain thing is, even if you've done a lot of eventful things before. Alternatively, instead, he simply doesn't like said certain thing.
Compare RememberWhenYouBlewUpTheSun when other characters reminisces one awesome thing that a certain character supposedly did. May sometimes overlap with ExpositionOfImmortality when the (immortal/very old) character personally experiences things that happened a long time ago (without TimeTravel that is).

!!!Examples
[[AC:ComicBooks]]
* ''ComicBook/{{Watchmen}}''. Doctor Manhattan combines this with TheReasonYouSuckSpeech:
-->I've walked across the Sun. I've seen events so tiny and so fast they hardly can be said to have occurred at ''all'', but ''you''... you are a ''man''. And this world's ''smartest'' man means no more to me than does its smartest ''termite''.
[[AC:{{Film}}]]
* Roy Batty's speech in ''Film/BladeRunner''.
--> "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain."
* Alan gives a much nastier list of experiences in ''Film/{{Jumanji}}'' when he explains exactly what Judy and Peter are getting themselves into.
-->You think that mosquitoes, monkeys, and lions are bad? That is just the beginning. I've seen things you've only seen in your nightmares. Things you can't even imagine. Things you can't even see. There are things that hunt you in the night. Then something screams. Then you hear them eating, and you hope to God you aren't dessert. Afraid? You don't know what afraid is. You will not last five minutes without me."
* Notably subverted in ''Film/TheGhostAndTheDarkness'', where GreatWhiteHunter Remington has a quote about how time steals away many of the memories that would otherwise be part of one of these speeches.
-->So many things flash by and at that moment you say "Oh yeah, this is gonna stay with me. Surely. I will never forget this dawn. This hunt. This passion." And then... it's all gone.
* ''Film/SecondhandLions'': Hub at one point grabs a hotheaded youth by the throat and tells him who he is and what he's done, including seeing the headwaters of the Nile and tribes of natives no white man had seen before.
* Han Solo gives one of these to young Luke Skywalker in ''Film/StarWarsANewHope'', poo-pooing the concept of The Force: "Kid, I've flown from one end of this galaxy to the other. Seen a lot of strange stuff. But I've never seen anything to make me believe there's some all-powerful force controlling ''everything''. No mystical energy field controls ''my'' destiny." This speech neatly gauges how cynical and faithless Han Solo is at that point.
* ''Film/GoodWillHunting'' has a speech like this except Maguire is using the speech to show Will that he isn't as smart as he thinks he is. Will has been arrogantly frustrating one therapist after another but Maguire tells him that all he has is book knowledge. "But you've never been inside the Cistine Chapel and smelled the mortar."

* Inverted with Creator/DrSeuss' ''Oh, the Places You'll Go!''. '''ZCE'''
*''Literature/TheHuntForRedOctober'': One of the Dallas crew comments, "Y'know, I seen me a mermaid once. I even seen me a shark eat an octopus. But I ain't never seen no phantom Russian submarine."
* In the fifth book of ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'', Tyrion Lannister gives one on behalf of Daenerys Targaryen.
--> I know that she spent her childhood in exile, impoverished, living on dreams and schemes, running from one city to the next, always fearful, never safe, friendless but for a brother who was by all accounts half-mad...a brother who sold her maidenhood to the Dothraki for the promise of an army. I know that somewhere upon the grass, her dragons hatched, [[TookALevelInBadass and so did she]]. I know she is proud. How not? What else was left her but pride? I know she is strong. How not? The Dothraki despise weakness. If Daenerys had been weak, she would have perished with Viserys. I know she is fierce. Astapor, Yunkai and Meereen are proof enough of that. She has survived assassins and conspiracies and fell sorceries, grieved for a brother and a husband and a son, trod the cities of the slavers to dust beneath her dainty sandaled feet.
[[AC:LiveActionTV]]
* Parodied in Manny's speech in ''Series/BlackBooks''.
-->Now look, you have given me everything that money can buy. Yes, I've slept on satin sheets, I've eaten crinkle-cut chips from a silver bowl, I've been driven all over town in minicabs. But there are some things that money can't buy.

* Parodied by ''Series/StargateSG1'''s SelfParody episode "Wormhole X-Treme!":
--> '''Col. Danning:''' Princess, I've seen a lot over the years, the crystal rivers of Erridel, the blue volcanoes of Kashtorr Rama, even the Starfires of Grablax Six. ''(grabs her)'' None of it compares to you. ''(kisses her)''

* Creator/JohnnyCash's song "I've Been Everywhere" starts as SeenItAll and then turns into this as he lists out all the places he's ever been.
* Music/ProfessorElemental's "Cup of Brown Joy" is largely this.

* [[WebAnimation/WeeblAndBob Weebl]]'s song [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBnXvhgrV8Q Scampi]] is probably a parody of this.

---> Pygmies, budgies, Kuala Lumpur!
* The song "When I See an Elephant Fly" from ''Film/{{Dumbo}}'' is a parody of this.
* The song "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIhs8_m5qPc In Search of Diamonds]]" is about the amazing things a player has seen while touring a ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' creative server.
-->''Saw a lava lake near the core, Kratos from VideoGame/GodOfWar, mushroom spore, liquor store, statue of [[Literature/HarryPotter Dumbledore]]...''
* Spitting Image's "I've never met a nice South African" song. In that song, a guy recounts many many near-impossible things that he's seen (Working Yorkshire Miner, Rowan Atkinson paying for lunch...) but maintains that he's never met a Nice South African.
* "My Own Eyes" is a list of things Music/WeirdAlYankovic has seen...and wishes he hadn't.
* Music/{{U2}}'s "But I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" features a list of things Bono has done interspersed with the chorus, which is just a repetition of the title.
[[AC:{{Poetry}}]]
* Part of Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poem "Ulysses" is this trope. The title character (also known as Odysseus) describes his adventures.
-->All times I have enjoy'd
-->Greatly, have suffer'd greatly, both with those
-->That loved me, and alone, on shore, and when
-->Thro' scudding drifts the rainy Hyades
-->Vext the dim sea: I am become a name;
-->For always roaming with a hungry heart
-->Much have I seen and known; cities of men
-->And manners, climates, councils, governments,
-->Myself not least, but honour'd of them all;
-->And drunk delight of battle with my peers,
-->Far on the ringing plains of windy Troy.
* General George S. Patton, Jr. wrote a poem called "Through a Glass, Darkly" about what he believed were his previous incarnations as a warrior. Part of it (which was quoted in the film ''Film/{{Patton}}''):
-->Through the travail of the ages,
-->Midst the pomp and toil of war,
-->I have fought and strove and perished
-->Countless times upon this star.
-->[snip many stanzas about his combat adventures]
-->So as through a glass, and darkly
-->The age long strife I see
-->Where I fought in many guises,
-->Many names, but always me.

* In a children's theater musical production of Creator/OHenry's ''Literature/TheRansomOfRedChief'' Sam & Bill lure Red Chief away from home by telling him of all the adventures they've had and places they've seen, saying that if he joins them he'll have similar adventures.

* {{Starcraft}}: Zeratul to Aldaris, who's getting uppity with him:
--> You speak of knowledge, Judicator? You speak of experience? I have journeyed through the darkness between the most distant stars. I have beheld the births of negative-suns and borne witness to the entropy of entire realities... Unto my experience, Aldaris, all that you've built here on Aiur is but a fleeting dream. A dream from which your precious Conclave shall awaken, finding themselves drowned in a greater nightmare.
[[AC: Webcomics]]
* In ''Webcomic/TalesOfTheQuestor'', Quentyn, Son of Quinn has listed his experiences at least twice as a BadassBoast, and TheReasonYouSuckSpeech in the first case.
** [[http://www.rhjunior.com/tales-of-the-questor-0311/ First time]], to a gangbanger who threatened him after being arrested thanks to Quentyn.
--> ''I have slogged through the Dire Swamps, killed a Gragum god-priest and three of his followers single-handed, and waded thru an army of shadow wights to kill a rat-king. I also happen to be the guy who just hospitalized half your big, bad gang, jackass.''

[[AC:WebVideo]]
* In season 6 of ''WebVideo/AcquisitionsIncorporated'', Creator/WilWheaton's character discovers that the giant demonic statue he's hiding under has a hole at its rear end that leads into its stony bowels. While understandably reluctant to explore it further at first, nudging from other players and the audience forces him to reconsider and climb inside. Before that, however, he lists all the famous ''[[TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons D&D]]'' adventures he played (including ''Against the Giants'', ''TabletopGame/TempleOfElementalEvil'', and even the ''TabletopGame/TombOfHorrors''), before concluding that he [[ARareSentence never had to say following words before]]: "I will climb up the asshole."
[[AC:WesternAnimation]]
* PlayedForLaughs in ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'', where after opening up his own restaurant, Peter laments that he hopes he doesn't have one of those handicapped Vietnam vets who's missing both legs come into his store, before seeing one enter and acknowledging it happening.
-->'''Wheelchair-bound Vietnam Vet:''' I've seen some things man, and did some stuff. I wouldn't recommend it!
Sometimes used by someone who as SeenItAll.
Used for a number of reasons:
* To show someone has lived a full and satisfying life, especially if they are about to die.
* Conversely to show that someone who is about to die shouldn't because they have so much useful experience (in this case it's often another character who recounted said list of experience)
* As part of a BadAssBoast.
* When added "...But I've never seen/experience (a certain thing)" at the end, it expresses how extraordinary/impossible said certain thing is, even if you've done a lot of eventful things before. Alternatively, instead, he simply doesn't like said certain thing.
Compare RememberWhenYouBlewUpTheSun when other characters reminisces one awesome thing that a certain character supposedly did. May sometimes overlap with ExpositionOfImmortality when the (immortal/very old) character personally experiences things that happened a long time ago (without TimeTravel that is).

!!!Examples
[[AC:ComicBooks]]
* ''ComicBook/{{Watchmen}}''. Doctor Manhattan combines this with TheReasonYouSuckSpeech:
-->I've walked across the Sun. I've seen events so tiny and so fast they hardly can be said to have occurred at ''all'', but ''you''... you are a ''man''. And this world's ''smartest'' man means no more to me than does its smartest ''termite''.
[[AC:{{Film}}]]
* Roy Batty's speech in ''Film/BladeRunner''.
--> "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain."
* Alan gives a much nastier list of experiences in ''Film/{{Jumanji}}'' when he explains exactly what Judy and Peter are getting themselves into.
-->You think that mosquitoes, monkeys, and lions are bad? That is just the beginning. I've seen things you've only seen in your nightmares. Things you can't even imagine. Things you can't even see. There are things that hunt you in the night. Then something screams. Then you hear them eating, and you hope to God you aren't dessert. Afraid? You don't know what afraid is. You will not last five minutes without me."
* Notably subverted in ''Film/TheGhostAndTheDarkness'', where GreatWhiteHunter Remington has a quote about how time steals away many of the memories that would otherwise be part of one of these speeches.
-->So many things flash by and at that moment you say "Oh yeah, this is gonna stay with me. Surely. I will never forget this dawn. This hunt. This passion." And then... it's all gone.
* ''Film/SecondhandLions'': Hub at one point grabs a hotheaded youth by the throat and tells him who he is and what he's done, including seeing the headwaters of the Nile and tribes of natives no white man had seen before.
* Han Solo gives one of these to young Luke Skywalker in ''Film/StarWarsANewHope'', poo-pooing the concept of The Force: "Kid, I've flown from one end of this galaxy to the other. Seen a lot of strange stuff. But I've never seen anything to make me believe there's some all-powerful force controlling ''everything''. No mystical energy field controls ''my'' destiny." This speech neatly gauges how cynical and faithless Han Solo is at that point.
* ''Film/GoodWillHunting'' has a speech like this except Maguire is using the speech to show Will that he isn't as smart as he thinks he is. Will has been arrogantly frustrating one therapist after another but Maguire tells him that all he has is book knowledge. "But you've never been inside the Cistine Chapel and smelled the mortar."
[[AC:{{Literature}}]]
* Inverted with Creator/DrSeuss' ''Oh, the Places You'll Go!''. '''ZCE'''
*''Literature/TheHuntForRedOctober'': One of the Dallas crew comments, "Y'know, I seen me a mermaid once. I even seen me a shark eat an octopus. But I ain't never seen no phantom Russian submarine."
* In the fifth book of ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'', Tyrion Lannister gives one on behalf of Daenerys Targaryen.
--> I know that she spent her childhood in exile, impoverished, living on dreams and schemes, running from one city to the next, always fearful, never safe, friendless but for a brother who was by all accounts half-mad...a brother who sold her maidenhood to the Dothraki for the promise of an army. I know that somewhere upon the grass, her dragons hatched, [[TookALevelInBadass and so did she]]. I know she is proud. How not? What else was left her but pride? I know she is strong. How not? The Dothraki despise weakness. If Daenerys had been weak, she would have perished with Viserys. I know she is fierce. Astapor, Yunkai and Meereen are proof enough of that. She has survived assassins and conspiracies and fell sorceries, grieved for a brother and a husband and a son, trod the cities of the slavers to dust beneath her dainty sandaled feet.
[[AC:LiveActionTV]]
* Parodied in Manny's speech in ''Series/BlackBooks''.
-->Now look, you have given me everything that money can buy. Yes, I've slept on satin sheets, I've eaten crinkle-cut chips from a silver bowl, I've been driven all over town in minicabs. But there are some things that money can't buy.
* Overlaps with BadassBoast in ''Series/DoctorWho'' episode "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS33E07TheRingsOfAkhaten The Rings of Akhaten]]", when the Doctor attempts to cause a PhlebotinumOverload in a god that eats memories:
-->I walked away from the Last Great Time War. I marked the passing of the Time Lords. I saw the birth of the universe and I watched as time ran out, moment by moment, until nothing remained. No time. No space. Just me! I've walked in universes where the laws of physics were devised by the mind of a MAD MAN. I've watched universes freeze and creations burn. I have seen things you wouldn't believe. I have lost things you'll never understand! And I know things. Secrets that must never be told. Knowledge that must never be spoken. Knowledge that will make parasite gods BLAZE!
* When Gus (a former sailor) from ''Series/RoadToAvonlea'' goes blind, he says this to his fiancee: "I've travelled Felicity and I've seen things... The southern cross in the night sky... The fire of Saint Elmo dancing on the water... I've seen the sun rising on old Spanish ports... And I'll never see again. I'll never see your face again."
* Parodied by ''Series/StargateSG1'''s SelfParody episode "Wormhole X-Treme!":
--> '''Col. Danning:''' Princess, I've seen a lot over the years, the crystal rivers of Erridel, the blue volcanoes of Kashtorr Rama, even the Starfires of Grablax Six. ''(grabs her)'' None of it compares to you. ''(kisses her)''
--> ''(somebody's cell phone rings)''
--> '''Director:''' CUT!
[[AC:{{Music}}]]
* Charlene's "I've Never Been To Me"
--> Oh, I've been to Niece and the Isle of Greece while I've sipped champagne on a yacht
--> I've moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and showed 'em what I've got
--> I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things that a woman ain't supposed to see
--> I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
* the circus song in DrDolittle
--> I mean, I've seen the world
--> I've been around
--> I could tell you stories
--> That would quite astound you
--> I'm not a fool!
--> I went to school!
--> I've been from Liverpool to Istanbul, Istanbul.
--> I'm no fool!
--> And anyone will tell you
--> That I'm sharper than a knife,
--> But I've never seen anything like it in my life!
--> Well, I've never seen anything like it!
--> Never seen anything like it!
--> I've never seen anything like it in my life!
* The bridge of Everlast's "What it's like" is one of these:
-->I've seen a rich man beg
--> I've seen a good man sin
--> I've seen a tough man cry
--> I've seen a loser win
--> And a sad man grin
--> I heard an honest man lie
