What are your fave quotes from movies/tv shows? (This is the second "list" thread I've done today, I'm starting to feel like a Channel 4 "100 Greatest PPT Threads" programme hosted by Jimmy Carr)
Mine include -
German: Good evening. I am Oberleutnant von Gerhardt. I have a message from the Baron von Richthoven, the greatest living German.
Blackadder: Which, considering that his competition consists entirely of very fat men in leather shorts burping to the tune of `She'll Be Coming Round The Mountain', is no great achievement.
From Blackadder... No offence meant to any Germans in, but it is very funny.
Galadriel: Not all those who wander are lost.
From Lord of The Rings.
Bernard: *holds up a sausage* Up with this I will not put.
From Black Books.
Pretty lame selection, but enough to get the ball rolling.

From Star Wars: A New Hope
Obiwan Kenobi: "Who's the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?"
That's been my personal favorite for a very, very long time.

I'll post some of my favorite Simpsons ones I can think of here:
Burns: Simpson, eh? New man?
Smithers: He thwarted your campaign for governor, you ran over his son, he saved the plant from meltdown, his wife painted you in the nude...
Burns: Doesn't ring a bell.
Chief Wiggum: The legendary Esquilax, a horse with the head of a rabbit, and.... the BODY of a rabbit!
Hans Moleman: You took four minutes of my life and I want them back. Oh I'd only waste them anyway.
Homer: Whaddya have to was that awful taste outta my mouth?
Guy: Mountain Dew or Crab Juice?
Homer: Blugh oh geez!... I'll take the crab juice
Announcer: And now, back to Mr. McGrew's Christmas Carol.
Homer: Mr. McGrew? I love that blind senile old man!
Abe: I can't find my way back to the home!
Homer: I heard you the first five times!
Lou Ellen: Hello! I am Lou Ellen St Claire. I've directed three plays in my career, and I've had three heart attacks. That's how much I care, I'm planning for a fourth.

The Matrix: There is no spoon.
In context, it and the rest of the movie are totally lame. But out of context it makes for one heck of a good t-shirt!

Black Books for quoteage.
One of my favourite Simpsons bits is Carl's 'Just because I'm African-American doesn't mean I have to be good at basketball' or whatever

I have 100s of Simpsons quotes that I adore, my friends at Uni and I used to basically have entire conversations consisting entirely of Simpsons quote
"Hello, I'm Mr. Plow. Are you tired of having your hands cut off by snow-blowers, and the inevitable heart attacks that come with shoveling snow?"
-Homer
"The story you are about to hear is true, and by true I mean false. It's lies, all of it. But they are entertaining lies, and in the end isn't that what's important? The answer is no."
-Leonard Nimoy
"They have the Internet on computers now?"
-Homer
"Me fail English? That's unpossible!"
-Ralph
"The most rewarding part was when he gave me my money!"
-Dr. Nick
"Stolen funds? Pothole money used for swimming pool!? There's no emoticon for what I'm feeling!"
-Comic Book Guy
Homer: "Computer, kill Flanders!"
Ned: "Did I hear my name? My ears are burnin'!"
Homer: "Good start - now finish the job!"
I could go on forever
I also love any quote from Blackadder:
"Baldrick, you wouldn't recognise a cunning plan if it painted itself purple and danced naked on top of a harpsichord singing 'Cunning plans are here again'."
- Blackadder
Edmund BlackAdder: Well, you could appoint him a high-court judge.
Prince George: Is he qualified?
Edmund BlackAdder: He's a violent, bigoted, mindless old fool.
Prince George: Sounds a bit overqualified.
Ah, brilliant!

If you were talking radio, I have a bunch from RadioU. Guess I'll be doing stuff from Ten Most Wanted instead.
TMW - all said by the host Obadiah, unless said different:
"DM was on fire!...that's not a name, Greenville, South Carolina...OK, that IS a place." (yus, he truly said that. ^^)
"I want to go home this century!"
"There's a lot of me to miss."
"Hey, you're Olivia the Band! What are you doing with Joel Osteen?!"
Aww...I thought I had more. I'll have to check my Works document. Also...expect many quotes from me from A Different World.

Manny: Do you think I should wash my beard?
Bernard: I think you should, yeah. You should wash your beard, then shave it off, nail it to a Frisbee and fling it over a rainbow.
