"Ah, marriage....I see you bent over a hot stove. I can't see the stove."

Easy one, who said this? Props to the first to reply.

Do people still say props?
 
This one should be easy:

"I tell ya, my wife likes to talk during sex. Last night, she called me from a motel."
 
Don't know if it's my fave. But, this whole deal from Monty Python and the Holy Grail always makes me laugh histerically!

"And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."

There are 'lines' and lines. I thought the question was ' Your Favorite Comedic Line' ;) but 160 lines??

One of my favourite lines is...

Shirley Valentine: 'Hello, Wall'
 
Some more great one-liners from the greatest comedy of all time...

Blazing Saddles

"I must have killed more men than Cecil B. DeMille."

"I wash born here, an I wash raished here, and dad gum it, I am gonna die here, an no sidewindin bushwackin, hornswaglin, cracker croaker is gonna rouin me bishen cutter."

"Oh. It's twue. It's twue. It's twue, it's twue!"

"Baby. I'm not from Havana."

"Hey, where the white women at."

"Someone's gotta go back for a shi*-load of dimes!"

"Little bastard shot me in the ass."


-and, of course...the immortal
"Excuse me while I whip this out."

(I could list them all day day)

However, the greatest comedic line of all time is...

"Well, nobody's perfect"
(from Some Like It Hot)
