What movie has the best quotable one liners and what are they? Funny, serious, witty, anything but foul (foul is just boring)

Here's a couple I noticed no one mentioned!

Lonesome Dove -

Gus McCrae: A man who wouldn't cheat for a poke don't want one bad enough.

Gus McCrae: You know how it works Jake, I'm sorry you crossed the line.
Jake Spoon: I didn't see no line Gus.

Woodrow Call: I'd like to see the herd that you and Jake could gather. Herd o' whores, maybe.

Tombstone –

Doc Holliday: I'm your huckleberry

Billy Clanton: You're so drunk, you can't hit nothin'. In fact, you're probably seeing double.
Doc Holliday: I have two guns, one for each of ya.

Doc Holliday: Nonsense, I have not yet begun to defile myself.

Wyatt Earp: Well, I'll be damned.
Doc Holliday: You may indeed, if you get lucky.

I vote for Casablanca.

[denying an official of the German National Bank entrance to the casino]
Rick: Your cash is good at the bar.
Banker: What? Do you know who I am?
Rick: I do. You're lucky the bar's open to you.

Ugarte: You know, Rick, I have many a friend in Casablanca, but somehow, just because you despise me, you are the only one I trust.

Captain Renault: Carl, see that Major Strasser gets a good table, one close to the ladies.
Carl: I have already given him the best, knowing he is German and would take it anyway.

Ilsa: Play it once, Sam. For old times' sake.

Ilsa: I wasn't sure you were the same. Let's see, the last time we met...
Rick: Was La Belle Aurore.
Ilsa: How nice, you remembered. But of course, that was the day the Germans marched into Paris.
Rick: Not an easy day to forget.
Ilsa: No.
Rick: I remember every detail. The Germans wore gray, you wore blue.

[about Rick]
Major Strasser: You give him credit for too much cleverness. My impression was that he's just another blundering American.
Captain Renault: We musn't underestimate American blundering. I was with them when they blundered into Berlin in 1918.

Rick: Well there are certain sections of New York, Major, that I wouldn't advise you to try to invade.

Ugarte: You despise me, don't you?
Rick: If I gave you any thought I probably would.

Ugarte: Rick, think of all the poor devils who can't meet Renault's price. I get it for them for half. Is that so... parasitic?
Rick: I don't mind a parasite. I object to a cut-rate one.

Yvonne: Where were you last night?
Rick: That's so long ago, I don't remember.
Yvonne: Will I see you tonight?
Rick: I never make plans that far ahead.

Captain Renault: How extravagant you are, throwing away women like that. Some day they may be scarce.

Captain Renault: What in heaven's name brought you to Casablanca?
Rick: My health. I came to Casablanca for the waters.
Captain Renault: The waters? What waters? We're in the desert.
Rick: I was misinformed.

Rick: I stick my neck out for nobody.

Major Strasser: What is your nationality?
Rick: I'm a drunkard.
Captain Renault: That makes Rick a citizen of the world.

Rick: ...Here's looking at you, kid.

Rick: How can you close me up? On what grounds?
Captain Renault: I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!
[a croupier hands Renault a pile of money]
Croupier: Your winnings, sir.
Captain Renault: [sotto voce] Oh, thank you very much.
[aloud]
Captain Renault: Everybody out at once!

Rick: Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she had to walk into mine.

Rick: And remember, this gun is pointed right at your heart.
Captain Renault: That is my least vulnerable spot.

Captain Renault: Major Strasser has been shot. Round up the usual suspects.

Rick: Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Ilsa: When I said I would never leave you.
Rick: And you never will. But I've got a job to do, too. Where I'm going, you can't follow. What I've got to do, you can't be any part of. Ilsa, I'm no good at being noble, but it doesn't take much to see that the problems of three little people don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world. Someday you'll understand that. Now, now... Here's looking at you kid.

Captain Renault: I've often speculated why you don't return to America. Did you abscond with the church funds? Run off with a senator's wife? I like to think you killed a man. It's the romantic in me.

Hard to say. I guarantee you'll get people answering this with movies like "Anchorman" and "Napoleon Dynamite" etc. but those always die out after a month.

The longest standing ones are usually just one or two per movie:

Jaws: "We're gonna need a bigger boat." (You hear people say that all the time.)

Casablanca: "Here's lookin' at you, kid."

Forrest Gump: "Mama always said 'life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you gonna get.'"

A Few Good Men: "You can't handle the truth!"

Jerry Maguire: "You had me at 'hello.'"

etc

The one that my dad and I would use alot was from "Airplane".
Two men were in the cockpit talking. One said "Surely you can't be serious." The other said, "Yes, I'm serious. And don't call me Shirley." I was about 9 when I watched it with my dad and he would say that for years every time I would use the word 'surely'. He still does & I'm 36 now. lol

The Blues Brothers: "It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses." "Hit it."
Animal House: "Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son."
Monty Python and the Holy Grail: "He must be a king. He hasn't got sh** on him."
