a few of mine:

Woman: Don’t talk about S-E-X in front of the C-H-I-L-D-R-E-N!!!

Krusty: Sex Cauldron? I thought they closed that place down!

* * *

Kent Brockman: I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: democracy just doesn’t work!

* * *

Moe: They think they’re so high and mighty, just because they never got caught driving without pants.

* * *

Chief Wiggum (after the who shot Burns question was answered): Yeah, right pops. No jury in the world is going to convict a baby. …Maybe Texas.

* * *

Homer: Are you saying you’re never going to eat any animal again? What about bacon?  
Lisa: No.  
Homer: Ham?  
Lisa: No!  
Homer: Pork chops?  
Lisa: Dad, those all come from the same animal!  
Homer: Heh heh heh. Ooh, yeah, right, Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal.

* * *

Ralph Wiggum (my favorite): What’s a diorama?

* * *

Homer: Remember that postcard Grandpa sent us from Florida of that alligator biting that woman’s bottom? That’s right, we all thought it was hilarious. But it turns out we were wrong. That alligator was sexually harrassing that woman.

* * *

Marge- Homer, it’s so easy to criticise.  
Homer- Fun, too.

LOL!

This is so hard because there are at least two really good lines in each episode. Some favorites:

Lunch Lady Doris: “More testicles means more iron.”

Homer reciting “The Raven”: “‘Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,’ I said, ‘art sure no **craven,** ’” accentuating “craven” while addressing the viewer to emphasize the lengths Poe went to force rhymes of “raven.” Edited out of the syndicated version.

Nelson- Nothing catches trout like the German light infantry.

Mr Burns- Who the devil are you?(while Homer is standing in front of grafiti that says “I am Homer Simpson”)

Homer- Run boy Run! Now he’s got the taste of Blood!(after Homer threw a steak to distact the dog chasing Bart).

Here’s a few. The lines just by themselves don’t have any real significance, but the context in which they were said make them some of my favorites.

* * *

Bart - What about Abraham Lincoln?  
Homer - Uh, he served poisoned milk to school children!

* * *

Archie Gang (throwing Homer out of their car) - And stay out of Riverdale!

* * *

German Guy (techno music coming from car, speaking in german accent) - Hey you two, get a room!

Homer, on Burns’ porch: What are you going to do? Release the bees? Or the dogs? Or the dogs with bees in their mouth, so when the bark, they shoot bees at you?

Ralph: My cat’s breath smells like cat food.  
Ralph: Doctor said my nose wouldn’t bleed so much if I just kept my finger out of there.  
Ralph: I bent my wookiee.  
Ralph: Oh boy, sleep! That’s where I’m a viking.

Homer: Rock stars, is there anything that don’t know?

Um, its **greedy**. . . and you get an F for spelling. (Sorry, but that was too ironic not to point out.)

Little fat German boy running : “Don’t chase me I am full of chocolate !!”

When Homer tries selling sugar he says one of the funniest lines that I can think of. It’s just such an absurd reference. I don’t even know what it’s parodying, if anything, but it’s just plain hilarious.

Marge: Homer, when are you going to give up this crazy sugar scheme?  
Homer: Never, Marge! Never. I can’t live the button-down life like you. I want it all: the terrifying lows, the dizzying highs, the creamy middles. Sure, I might offend a few of the bluenoses with my cocky stride and musky odors – oh, I’ll never be the darling of the so-called “City Fathers” who cluck their tongues, stroke their beards, and talk about “What’s to be done with this Homer Simpson?”
