It is harder to be more off topic, even if there isn't a topic, but showing, as I type, on AMC or TMC, or TCM is What's New Pussycat, a movie containing one of my all-time favorite scenes in which Peter O'Toole and Woody Allen have this exchange:
Michael James: Did you find a job? Victor Skakapopulis: Yeah, I got something at the striptease. I help the girls dress and undress. Michael James: Nice job. Victor Skakapopulis: Twenty francs a week. Michael James: Not very much. Victor Skakapopulis: It's all I can afford.
It was Woody's first full-length screenplay and first movie role as an actor. I saw it at the Fox Theatre in McCook, Nebraska. gully

There are sooooo many that come to mind. However, the first thing I thought of was Meg Ryan in When Harry Met Sally and she shows Billy Crystal how easy it is to fake an orgasm. It's more than one line, but it truly is classic.

Good Night, you princes of Maine, you kings of New England
I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse
Hello, my name is Indigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die
Capt Renault: What in heaven's name brought you to Casablanca? Rick: My health. I came to Casablanca for the waters. Capt Renault: The waters? What waters? We're in the desert. Rick: I was misinformed.
James Bond: Do you expect me to talk? Auric Goldinger: No, Mr Bond. I expect you to die.
I think people should mate for life, like pigeons or Catholics.
What do you think I am? Dumb or something? Why, I make more money than Calvin Coolidge! Put together!
This Chinaman is not the issue! I'm talking about drawing a line in the sand, Dude!
Clouseau waited for the clerk to register him, he noticed the dog lying on the floor beside him. Clouseau asked the clerk, "Does your dog bite?" The clerk said, "No, he doesn't."
Clouseau bent over to pet the dog, which suddenly snapped at his hand and growled. Clouseau, quickly stepped back and said indignantly, "I thought your dog didn't bite!" The clerk, without looking up, said, "That's not my dog."
and....
So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.
In The Naked Gun 2 1/2, after President Bush I announced at a White House dinner that Frank Drebin was being honored for his 1000th drug dealer kill, Drebin leans over to the person next to him and says:
"the last two I accidently backed over with my car, but they turned out to be drug dealers."
from Cat on a Hot Tin Roof: Maggie Pollitt: I'm not living with you! We occupy the same cage, that's all.
from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid: Butch Cassidy: I have vision, and the rest of the world wears bifocals.
and Butch Cassidy: I couldn't do that. Could you do that? Why can they do it? Who are those guys?
from Jaws: Brody: You're gonna need a bigger boat.
>From Hombre:
Jessie: That's the price you pay if you want it where you can nudge it in the night.
>From The Way We Were:
Katie Morosky Gardner: Your girl is lovely, Hubbell.
and Katie Morosky: I feel like I've been invited for drinks, and everyone else is staying for dinner.
>From Awakenings:
Dr. Ingham: The virus didn't spare the higher faculties. Dr. Sayer: We know what for a fact? Dr. Ingham: Yes. Dr. Sayer: Because? Dr. Ingham: Because the alternative would be unthinkable.
>From Hud:
Hud Bannon: My momma used to love me, but she died.
>From Out of Africa
Karen Blixen: Perhaps he knew, as I did not, that the Earth was made round so that we would not see too far down the road.
and
Baron Bror Blixen: You could have asked, Denys. Denys: I did. She said yes.
>From the Electic Horseman, Willie Nelson:
Wendall: I'm gonna get me a bottle of tequila and find me one of them Keno girls that can suck the chrome off a trailer hitch and just kinda kick back.
>From Lonesome Dove:
Woodrow Call: I hate rude behavior in a man. I won't tolerate it.
and
Gus McCrae: By God, Woodrow; it's been one hell of a party.
>From Dangerous Beauty:
Beatrice Venier: Do you know what my daughter's nurse told her today? "In a girl's voice lies temptation - a known fact. Eloquence in a woman means promiscuity. Promiscuity of the mind leads to promiscuity of the body." She doesn't believe it yet, but she will. She'll grow up just like her mother. Marry, raise children and honor her family. Spend her youth in needlepoint and rue the day she was born a girl. And when she dies, she'll wonder why she obeyed all the rules of God and Country for no biblical hell could ever be worse than a state of perpetual inconsequence.
>From Streetcar Named Desire:
Blanche DuBois: Whoever you are, I have always depended on the kindness of strangers.
And from the uncomparable Lion in Winter: Eleanor: In a world where carpenters get resurrected, everything is possible.
Henry II: I marvel at you after all these years. Still like a democratic drawbridge: going down for everybody. Eleanor: At my age there's not much traffic anymore.
Henry II: I'm villifying you for God's sake - pay attention!
