Thanks Walden. I'll keep a look out at my local Wal-Mart and elsewhere.
Wasn't Michael Richards in UHF?

Another quote. From "Daddy's Dying, Who's Got the Will"

"I done peed in my chili."

Yes. He also was in "The Ratings Game," another movie in a similar vein.

Yes! There are so many, it's hard to pick out the best ones, but here's my attempt.

"To Have and Have Not"
Steve: You've been wanting to do something for me, haven't you? Okay...walk around me.
Marie: ...
Steve: That's right, clear around. ... Find anything?
Marie: No. No Steve, there are no strings attached to you...not yet..."

"Maltese Falcon"
Sam Spade: All we've got is that maybe you love me and maybe I love you.
Brigid O'Shaughnessy: You know whether you love me or not.
Sam Spade: Maybe I do. I'll have some rotten nights after I've sent you over, but that'll pass.

"Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinking badges!"

"Treasure of the Sierra Madre" (1948)

A classic!

From Scarface:

"Manolo, shoot dat piece o' chit"

Godfather:

"Leave the gun. Take the canoli."

"So the next day, my father went to see him; only this time with Luca Brasi. An' within an hour, he signed a release, for a certified check for $1000. [Kay: "How'd he do that?"] My father made him an offer he couldn't refuse. [Kay: "What was that?"] Luca Brasi held a gun to his head and my father assured him that either his brains, or his signature, would be on the contract. That's a true story. That's my family, Kay, it's not me."

I may have missed it, but this is a WHISTLE board:
"You don't have to say anything and you don't have to do anything. Not a thing. Oh, maybe just whistle. You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve? You just put your lips together and ... blow.''
- Lauren Bacall in To Have and Have Not

While looking for that I found this (thought it isn't from a movie):
"A kiss can be a comma, a question mark, or an exclamation point. That's basic spelling that every woman ought to know." - Mistinguett

The Godfather is one of the greatest quotable movies.

"..if lightning should strike him. Then I will not forgive."

"Tattaglia's a pimp. He could never have outfought Santino. But I didn't know til this very day that it was Barzini all a long."

Vito: "I don't know. I've been drinking a lot more lately."
Michael: "It's good for you Pop."

Sonny: "I don't want my brother coming out of there with just his #$%# in his hand."

EXT. RAUL'S APARTMENT BUILDING

A delivery truck is parked outside Raul's apartment building. As one delivery man unloads various caged animals from the back of the truck, another man with a clipboard approaches Raul.

MAN WITH CLIPBOARD
Raul Hernandez?

RAUL
Yeah...

MAN WITH CLIPBOARD
Got the delivery here for your next show.

RAUL
Oh, great, whatcha got?

MAN WITH CLIPBOARD
Let's see... we got an anteater, a flamingo, two armadillos, four porcupines, three badgers...

RAUL
(outraged)
Badgers?! Badgers?!! We don't need no stinking badgers!!!

--UHF (1989)

Rosencrantz: Do you think death could possibly be a boat?
Guildenstern: No, no, no... Death is... not. Death isn't. You take my meaning. Death is the ultimate negative. Not-being. You can't not-be on a boat.
Rosencrantz: I've frequently not been on boats.
Guildenstern: No, no, no - what you've been is not on boats.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead (Tom Stoppard)

Another one, just for good measure:

Guildenstern: A man talking sense to himself is no madder than a man talking nonsense not to himself.
Rosencrantz: Or just as mad.
Guildenstern: Or just as mad.
Rosencrantz: And he does both.
Guildenstern: So there you are.
Rosencrantz: Stark raving sane.
