Obscure lines that stick in your head.

From 3rd Rock From the Sun.

The Big Giant Head: Oh, by the way, this harness belongs to your assistant. (Pulls out a bra)
 
From the movie musical Evita, by a group of Eva's used and discarded lovers:

This is a club I should never have joined
Someone has made us look fools.
Argentine men call the sexual shots
Someone has altered the rules.
 
From the movie musical Evita, by a group of Eva's used and discarded lovers:

This is a club I should never have joined
Someone has made us look fools.
Argentine men call the sexual shots
Someone has altered the rules.

Later in the musical:

Evita: Did you hear that?
They called me a whore.
They actually called me a whore!

Italian Delegate: But Senora Peron it's an easy mistake.
I'm still called an Admiral.
Yet I gave up the sea
Long ago.
 
"I say, hello there."
"We say 'hello there' too."

"Gad! The wonders of the steam age."
"What is the wonder of the steam age, Captain?"
"Steam."

"The wood, you can't get the wood." (Another one that turned into a running joke)

"We were looking in the window for antiques, and we saw you."

"Eight silver shillings for a pyramid? Pah! But it's second hand!"
"Curse! The man must be an Egyptologist."

All hail the mighty Goon Show! :D
 
From Hart to Hart.

Jonathan: We'll cover more ground faster if we split up. Do you want the library or the sorority house?

Jennifer: I'll take the library. Somehow I think you'll get better results at a sorority house than I will.
 
I really can't get this musical out of my head:

Christine: What tears I might have shed
for your dark fate.
Grow cold,
and turn to tears of HATE!

Christine: Raoul, I'm frightened
don't make me do this
Raoul, he scares me
don't put me through this ordeal by fire
He'll take me, I know
We'll be parted forever
He won't let me go.
What I once used to dream, I now dread
If he finds me it wont ever end
And he'll always be there
singing songs in my head
He'll always be there
singing songs in my head.

Carlotta: She's mad.

Raoul: You said yourself
he was nothing but a man
Yet while he lives
he will haunt us 'till we're dead

Christine: Twisted every way
what answer can I give?
Am I to risk my life
to win the chance to live?
Can I betray the man
who once inspired my voice?
Do I become his prey?
do I have any choice?
He kills without a thought
he murders all that's good
I know I can't refuse
and yet, I wish I could
Oh God, if I agree
What horrors wait for me
in this, the Phantoms opera.

Christine: Passing bells
and sculpted angels
cold and monumental
Seemed for you, the wrong companions
You were warm and gentle.
Too many years
fighting back tears
Why can't the past just die?
Wishing you were somehow here again
knowing we must say goodbye
try to forgive
teach me to live
give me the strength to try.
No more memories
no more silent tears
no more gazing across the wasted years
Help me say goodbye.
Help me say goodbye.

The Phantom: That fate which condemns me to wallow in blood
has also denied me the joys of the flesh
this face, the infection
that poisons our love

This face, which earned
a mother's fear and loathing
A mask, my first
unfeeling scrap of clothing

Pity comes to late
turn around and face your fate
an eternity of this
before your eyes!

Christine: This haunted face, holds no horror for me now.
It's in your soul, that the true distortion lies.

I think I better stop or I'll be quoting every song from the musical. I just love it and can sing nearly every word from every song.

"And now for something completely different."

"Chandler and Monica! Chandler and Monica! Oh! My eyes! My eyes!"
 
"Father! You - you are Father, aren't you?"
"Do I have to undress?"
"No, it's just that you've changed so much. [Aside] And, dear listener, changed he had - he looked tired and weary - his eyes, his eyes were sunk back in his head, they were were bloodshot, watery and red-rimmed - what had caused this?"
"Neddie, we've bought a television set."

"I want that million pounds and I want it fast. I'm going to sing the whole of act three from Tosca, and if you haven't handed it over by then, ...I shall sing act four!"
"But there isn't any act four in Tosca."
"Then you've less time than you think!"

Both exchanges between Neddie Seagoon and the inimitable Valentine Dyall, and both hilarious. :lol:
 
From Star Trek: DS9.

Li Nalas: I'd die for Bajor.
Sisko: But can you live for it?

(Sisko won't participate in Bashir's early 20th-century nightclub holo-adventure because back then, people of color weren't welcome as guests.)
Kasidy Yates: Well, who's stopping you from going in there now?
 
From Third Rock From the Sun

Sally: So how was your trip, sir?
Big Giant Head: Horrifying, at first. I looked out the window and... I saw something on the side of the plane.?
Dick: The same thing happened to me!?
 
"I don't want to hear a poop outta you."
"I think he means "peep"."

"Great Honk!"

"Eee Gahds!"

"Does your son say words like..."Swell"?
(Trouble! Trouble Trouble Trouble Trouble)
Or, "So's your old man."?
(Trouble! Trouble Trouble Trouble Trouble)"

"If I stumbled
and ruptured my whatchamacallit
I would lie on the floor unnoticed
Until my body had turned to carrion.
Marion. Madame Librarian."
**************************************
"Would you lace my shoe?"
"Anything."
"Paint your face bright blue?"
"Anything."
"Catch a kangaroo?"
"Anything"
"Go to Timbuktu?"
"And back again."
****************************************

"Why don't you give me the respect I'd get from any stranger on the street?"
"Because I'm not one of your FANS!"
****************************************

"All I had was beer in...teeny weeny glasses"
"How many 'teeny weeny glasses' did you have?"
"72"
****************************************

"This singing ain't my line
it's hard to make a rhyme.
But if I get stuck
I'm...I'm outta luck
'cause...."
"'Cause you're running out of time!"
"Yeah thanks!"

"I'm tired of taking falls
and bouncing off the walls.
If it weren't for that gun
I'd have some fun
And kick you in the....."
"NOSE!"
"Nose? Dat don't rhyme with 'walls'"?
"Yeah, but this does."

From Firefly (Serenity):

Mal: I take it you all were watching?
Group: Uh...yeah...

Mal: (shrugs as if conclusion is obvious) Trap.
 
From Star Trek: Voyager.

Holo-Nazi to holo-pregnant B'Elanna in The Killing Game, Part II:
I will spare your life for now, but only because you are carrying a German child.

Doctor: Please state the nature of the medical emergency.
Kes: There is no medical emergency. I need some soil samples to start a hydroponics garden in the cargo bay.
Doctor: I see. How much...dirt do you need?
