Best lines from anything ever

edited July 2010 in General Chat
As I wait for Puzzle Agent and keep checking back here for news, I though I would start a thread as I'm fairly new to posting here.

So, best lines from anything ever...

Please post your favourite lines from your favourite TV shows, Movies, Games etc.

I'll start

Star Trek, Original series - City on the edge of forever

Spock - 'Edith Keeler must die'

I always though that would make a great name for a band.

    I like this exchange from Homestar Runner:

    (Homestar's girlfriend Marzipan is on a date with Strong Bad's lackey/best friend/pet The Cheat)
    Homestar: Oh man. Seriously, Strong Strong, we've gotta do something about this.
    Strong Bad: Ordinarily I just drown my problems in video games. But for this I maybe I should drown them in... drowning... them. (smiles)
    Homestar: Uh, maybe let's not kill anybody. We should just try and ruin their date.
    Strong Bad: Explain to me how drowning them wouldn't ruin their date.


    This exchange from Phineas and Ferb is good too:

    (Doofenshmirtz and his brother Roger have arranged to play golf)
    Roger: Hello, brother dear, sorry we're late, couldn't be helped. You know how it is. Traffic was terrible, and I've already wasted half the morning not caring at all about being punctual for our golf game. [...] Oh, lighten up, Heinz. You know what they say. You can't be teed off once you've teed off. (chuckles) That was very funny.
    Doofenshmirtz: What? Who says that?
    Roger: You know. They. Those guys over there.
    (He points at two creepy twins standing nearby)
    Twins: (in a monotone) You can't be teed off once you've teed off.
    Roger: Creepy, huh? I've been trying to ditch those guys all day.

    My favorite bits are:

    "Tomahawk Chop!"

    and

    "If you don't like our prices, I'll punch a puppy and kick a kitten just for you!"

    Even in a book of lies sometimes you find truth. There is indeed a season for all things and now that I see you flesh-to-flesh and blood-to-blood I know I cannot raise my hand against you. But know this, you are my greatest disappointment. Does your master hear me? Atlas! You can kill me, but you will never have my city. My strength is not in steel and fire, that is what the parasites will never understand. A season for all things! A time to live and a time to die, a time to build... and a time to destroy!

    Andrew Ryan: [to Jack, as he enters Ryan's sanctuary] The assassin has overcome my final line of defense, and now he plans to murder me. In the end what separates a man from a slave? Money? Power? No, a man chooses, and a slave obeys!
    [pause]
    Andrew Ryan: You think you have memories. A farm. A family. An airplane. A crash. And then this place. Was their really a family? Did that airplane crash, or, was it hijacked? Forced down, forced down by something less than a man, something bred to sleepwalk through life unless activated by a simple phrase, spoken by their kindly master. Come in.
    [Jack enters Ryan's layer]
    Andrew Ryan: Stop, would you kindly?
    [Jack does]
    Andrew Ryan: Would you kindly, powerful phrase. Familiar phrase?
    [Cascade of memories of Atlas ordering Jack to perform various tasks with the phrase "Would you kindly"]
    Andrew Ryan: Sit, would you kindly? Stand, would you kindly? Run! Stop! Turn. Was a man sent to kill, or a slave?
    [Ryan hands Jack a golf club]
    Andrew Ryan: KILL!
    [Jack smacks Ryan with the club]
    Andrew Ryan: A man chooses!
    [Jack smacks him again]
    Andrew Ryan: A slave obeys!
    [Jack smacks him again]
    Andrew Ryan: OBEEEEEEY!
    [Jack kills Ryan]


    And of course, a YouTube link... because I love you all so much.

    My favourite line from anything ever is from Simon the Sorcerer 2. Spoken by the title character:

    "Oh yes? Well, you see that dog poo? That's you, that is. That's your favourite food."


    But this line from Family Guy (spoken by Tom Tucker) comes in a very close second:

    "I'm sorry, but there's a handsome man in my spoon."

    (Arrested Development, Michael trying to get info from the British embassy)

    Michael: I need to check the records for any British owned building businesses that would have applied for license about 10 years ago.
    Clerk: Oh, I'm so sorry! You need a UK passport to check those files. They're for British eyes only.
    Michael: Don't I look kind of British?
    Clerk: Perhaps if you're willing to lose 20 pounds.
    Narrator: The clerk was asking for a bribe, but this was lost on Michael.
    Michael: You- you do go right for the jugular.

    Blackadder: 'Baldrick, in the Amazonian rain forests there are tribes of Indians as yet untouched by civilisation who have developed more convincing Charlie Chaplin impressions than yours.'

    Oh...now we've brought in Blackadder...

    Blackadder: "They do say, Mrs Miggins, that verbal insults hurt more than physical pain. They are of course wrong, as you will soon discover when I stick this toasting fork in your head."

    Blackadder: I'm as poor as a church mouse, that's just had an enormous tax bill on the very day his wife ran off with another mouse, taking all the cheese.

    (Scrubs, a Dr. Cox rant)

    "I have a son now, I can't be old. I don't want to be the guy that when he brings his son to play in the park, people turn and stare and say 'Is he the father? Is he the grandfather? Is he the grandfather's grandfather? And why, oh why, is he pushing that traffic cone on the swing while his little boy sits in the mud and cries? Is he taunting the little boy? No, he can't even see the little boy. He's talking to the traffic cone, and oh look, he's actually putting the traffic cone into the minivan and driving away while his little boy still sits in the mud and cries, cries, cries, and the traffic cone sits quietly and watches Finding Nemo on DVD."

    Blackadder: Baldric, you wouldn't know a subtle plan, even if it painted it self purple, danced around while playing on a harpsichord singing subtle plans are here again.

    Blackadder: So what they would do was put their underwear on their head, two pencils in their nose, and say, Wible.

    And the whole talk about getting hot mud, with spit and dandruff and the chocolate sprinkles was cracking me up. :)

    I picked lesser known or lesser remembered ones.

    "Maybe a real hero is the last one to hear about it. You pulled me out of the gutter and for that I owe you some thanks. Just remember, Fievel, one man's sunset is another man's dawn. I don't know what's out there beyond those hills, but if you ride yonder, head up, eyes steady, heart open, I think one day you'll find that you're the hero you've been looking for."
    - An American Tail: Fievel Goes West - Great final words by Jimmy Stewart in his final film role

    This whole sequence is also an incredible bit of writing.

    "What is going on!? I mean what the hell is going on!?"
    - Tremors

    "I had a little trouble with the fireplace."
    - The Hunchback of Notre Dame

    "That was not Mozart laughing, Father... that was God."
    -Amadeus

    "I heard that Curtis"
    -Spoony

    Perry: Okay, let's get out of here...where's my gun?
    Harry: It's okay, I took care of it...I threw it into the lake...
    Perry: What? My $2000 ceramic Vektor my mother got me as a special gift. You threw it in the lake next to the car. What happens when they drag the lake? You think they'll find my pistol?(!) Jesus. Look up "idiot" in the dictionary. You know what you'll find?
    Harry: A...picture of me?
    Perry: No! The definition of the word idiot, which you f*****g are!

    ...and just about any other line from Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang. :D

    My signature is also a favourite quote of mine, it comes from Inspector Gadget 1. When John Brown/Gadget (Matthew Broderick) talks to Brenda Bradford (Joely Fisher) at the beginning of the movie.

    Ohh and here is one from Mock the Week.
    Frankie Boyle: Dear Diadre, I want to trace my father, can you suggest a good marker pen?

    Saw Frankie recently in what appears to be his last tour. He is a very funny man. A couple of lines that had me wetting myself when I first heard them:

    Do you think George Bush actually knows who Gordon Brown is? He probably just thinks Tony Blair's put on weight and had a mild stroke.

    Scientists have just built the world's biggest supercollider, and they're doing experiments to see what makes up protons. I hope that if the experiment's successful, the whole of our reality will dissolve, and a big sign will up come that says: Level Two.

    Frankie Boyle is a genius, he is really funny in Mock the Week.

    Frankie Boyle: When people heard that Mel Gibson had to be Scottish in Braveheart, they said it wouldn't work. And look at him now, and alcoholic racist.

    There is a lot more, especially when they do "Things you'd like to see" Frankie cracks me up all the time. Heck all of them do, it's just a funny show.
    One of my favourite shows when ever I am in England. :)

    Here is another quote from Mock the Week: Use the force Luke, I've run out of lubricant.

    "Oh sure, everyone's always in favor of saving Hitler's brain, but when you put it in the body of a great white shark, ooooooooh, suddenly you've gone too far!"

    "Oooh, a lesson in not changing history from Mr. I'm My Own Grandpa! Let's get the hell out of here already! Screw history!"
    Anton Ego wrote:
    In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talents, new creations. The new needs friends.

    "I'm brilliant as well as skilled. It's a great burden, all of that on top of my angelic good looks. But I try to soldier on as best I can."

    I don't like him, he's just too rude for me to be honest. He doesn't offend me or anything like that, I just think he tries too hard to shock
