One of my other favorites, from Willow:

"Magic is the bloodstream of the universe. Forget all you know...or think you know. All that you require is your intuition. Now, the power to control the world is in which finger? "

And of course, while I'm in a magical frame of mind (well, when am I not?), Practical Magic:

Sally: All I want is a normal life.
Aunt Frances: My darling girl, when are you going to understand that being normal is not necessarily a virtue? It rather denotes a lack of caracter.

I have to say my favorite from "Dodgeball" is:

"You look like a bunch of retards trying to hump a door knob"
Patches O'Houlahan (sp?) definatly has the best lines in that movie.

One of my favorite quotes is from Raiders of the Lost Ark, when Indy and Marcus are talking to the guys from Army Intelligence about what the ark is. Indy shows the guys a picture of the ark, and one of them exclaims, "Good God!" and Marcus says, "Yes, that's what the Hebrews thought."

Another favorite is actually a line from one of the songs in Mary Poppins. In the "Sister Suffragette" song, there is a line: "Although we adore men individually, we agree that as a group they're rather stupid."

Fezzik: We face each other as God intended. Sportsmanlike. No tricks, no weapons, skill against skill alone.

Man in Black: You mean, you'll put down your rock and I'll put down my sword, and we'll try and kill each other like civilized people?

Fezzik: I could kill you right now!

Man in Black: You've got a little bit of an advantage here.

Fezzik: It's not my fault that i'm the biggest and the strongest!

...

Man in Black: Sleep well, dream of large women!

Wow, I'll argue about it! One of the few movies I walked out on!
Horrible!

Understood. It's definitely one of those love-it-or-hate-it movies.

From "This Is Spinal Tap"

Filmmaker Marty DiBergi, reading some of the band's reviews to band members during an interview: "This tasteless cover is a good indication of the lack of musical invention within. The musical growth of this band cannot even be charted. They are treading water in a sea of retarded sexuality and bad poetry."

Nigel Tufnel: That's just nitpicking, isn't it?

"Snap......snap.....snap....."

Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolfe

Toward the end of a long night and early morning of drinking and soul-bearing.... Elizabeth Taylor answers the door to Richard Burton throwing snapdragons at her. Such a dark and intresting movie. It's my favorite part of my favorite movie.

Wow, these are great! My favorite movie lines all seem to come from 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.'

Butch: Then you jump first.
Sundance: No, I said.
Butch: What's the matter with you?
Sundance: I can't swim.
Butch: Why you crazy, the fall will probably kill you.

and...

Butch: Jeesh, all Bolivia can't look like this.
Sundance: How do you know? This might be the garden spot of the whole country. People may travel hundreds of miles just to get to this spot where we're standing now. This might be the Atlantic City, New Jersey of all Bolivia for all you know.

and the piece de resistance

Butch: How long before you figure they're not after us?
Sundance: A while longer.
Butch: How come you're so talkative?
Sundance: (looks at Butch) Naturally blabby, I guess.

Here are two I've repeated or have heard many a time:

"I'll be back," Terminator 2 (?) with your best Arnold accent.

"Your overconfidence is your weakness," Return of the Jedi, Darth Vadar to Luke Skywalker, again in a Darth Vadar voice.

I have 3 boys who quite frequently use this one from "Lord Of The Rings":

"What about second breakfast?"

From the remake of the Dirty Dozen, a German officer spots the Jim Brown replacement in a German uniform. "Let me see your papers!"
