Actually it’s “c-c-c-coming to k-k-k-kill me,” but good choice.

The definitive line for him in that movie is “Ass_hole_!”

Two from one movie:

Jeff Bridges: “The Dude abides.”  
[also good, but not as applicable, are 'I hate the fucking Eagles, man and ‘the Chinaman is not the issue here’]  
John Turturro: “Nobody fucks with the Jesus!”  
[easier to remember in full than the tirade in the bowling alley]  
Possibly even three, if you count “Shut the fuck up, Donnie” or “This is what happens when you fuck a stranger in the ass!” for John Goodman [half his lines could be listed here]

I don’t know if it’s a signature line, but whenever I think of Leslie Nielsen, I think of the world’s greatest deadpan:

“I am serious, and stop calling me Shirley.”

“Git on yer hoss and ride”

I don’t know if John Wayne said either, but he should have

God, **chowder** , that second line looks _really_ different if you miss the comma. It’s a hard thing to imagine John Wayne saying.
