Mine is:- by Madame Bollinger (1955) on Champagne.
"I drink it when I'm happy
and when I'm sad
Sometimes I drink it when I'm alone
When I have company I consider it obligatory
I trifle with it when I'm not hungry
And I drink it when I am
Otherwise I never touch it -
Unless I'm thirsty.."

"the f*ckin f*cker's f*ckin f*cked"
A guy I used to work with talking about a particularly difficult problem on a jet.
"For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much--the wheel, New York, wars and so on--while all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man--for precisely the same reasons."

"We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills;we shall never surrender."

There were many memorable exchanges in the house of commons between Lady Aster and Winston Churchill. On one occasion Lady Aster said "Sir, If I were you wife I should put poison in your coffee." To which Churchill replied "Madam, If I were your husband I would drink It." On another occasion, Lady Aster accused Winston of being drunk. Winston replied "And you madam are ugly, I shall be sober in the morning."

"Revenge is a dish best served cold"
The earliest example appears as "La vengeance est un plat qui se mange froid" in the novel Les Liaisons Dangereuses (1782) by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos.

There are too many good ones to have a favourite, but here's one of the good ones:

without having to believe that there are fairies
at the bottom of it too? "

Lila from Futerama said this,
"This is, by a wide margin, the least likely thing that has ever happened!"
Brilliant way of putting things I thought!
