Field of Dreams Quotes

Context

This misquoted line is spoken by Ray Kinsella, played by Kevin Costner, in the film Field of Dreams, directed by Phil Alden Robinson (1989).

While wandering in a corn field, Ray Kinsella hears a strange whisper: "If you build it, he will come." Build what? A corn maze? A giant popcorn machine?

It turns out to be a baseball field, and when Ray builds it, a whole team of dead baseball players shows up to play a game. Perhaps that confuses people into thinking the quote is "If you build it, they will come."

Where you've heard it

You've heard this if you're being urged to build something. What could it be?

"If you build it, nerds will come."

Pretentious Factor

If you were to drop this quote at a dinner party, would you get an in-unison "awww" or would everyone roll their eyes and never invite you back? Here it is, on a scale of 1-10.

Could you be more vague? If you're ever a disembodied voice in a corn field, please be specific.
