Just wondering, but isn’t a “one liner” exactly that? Not dialogue between 2 characters, but a single sentence?  
“It’s the stuff that dreams are made of”  
“It’s a fool that looks for logic in the chambers of the human heart.”  
“Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn.”  
“Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?”

Yeah, I was thinking that too. And that it should be funny. One-liners are usually funny as opposed to great lines in movies. Still, I’m enjoying all the great movie quotes.

We’re gonna need a bigger boat-- how could that have slipped my mind?

Also from History of The World Part I: It’s Count DeMonNAY!  
One my kids like to quote at me 'cuz they’re mean: Old and busted; new hotness.
