Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine

"Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine" is one of the most iconic lines from the classic film Casablanca. This line is spoken by the film's protagonist, Rick Blaine, played by Humphrey Bogart, when his former lover, Ilsa Lund, played by Ingrid Bergman, unexpectedly walks into his nightclub in Casablanca.

The line perfectly captures the sense of fate and destiny that permeates the film. Rick and Ilsa's reunion in Casablanca is not a coincidence, but rather a twist of fate that brings them back together after years apart. The fact that Ilsa walks into Rick's nightclub out of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world suggests that their meeting was meant to be, that their paths were always destined to cross again.

The line also speaks to the theme of love and sacrifice that runs throughout the film. Rick and Ilsa's love for each other is undeniable, but their love is complicated by the circumstances of war and the choices they must make. Rick must ultimately sacrifice his own happiness for the greater good, letting Ilsa go so she can be with her husband, Victor Laszlo, a resistance leader fighting against the Nazis.
