I’ve been a simpsons fan for years and during those years a large number simpsons lines have remained with me. I’m curious to see what people come up with here but I’ll start it off with:

“You’ve all stood in my way long enough! I’m going to clown college” - Homer  
and here’s another fav:

“This guy is my exact double! That dog has a puffy tail!” - Homer

Homer, during his month of abstinence from beer, watching a baseball game with his buddies (who are all drinking): “I never realized how boring this game really is.”

Jesus Christ, were to start?

**Homer:**

“SAX-A-MA-PHONE”  
“Food goes in here”  
“And that’s when the C.H.U.D.s came after me.”  
“Save me, Jeebus!”  
“mmm…slanty”  
“Ohhh…Floor Pie!”  
And buttloads more I can’t think of, off the top of my head.

What a great show.

Well, my favorite, which was my sig line forever, is Ralph Wiggum’s reaction to Lisa’s Valentine:

“It says, I choo-choo-choose you. And it’s got a picture of a train.”

It’s hard to choose. Every episode has at least one memorable line. I guess I’ll go with Ralph Wiggum.

“This is the rock where I saw the leprechaun. He tells me to burn things.”

“We’re parked under the Sunsphere”

“Congratulations Bart Simpson, You’re our new Fallout Boy! That’s what I’d be saying to you if you weren’t an inch too short. NEXT!”

“Bart is it a crime to steal a loaf of bread for your starving family? What if you have a very big family, and they need a truckload of bread, is that a crime? And what if your family don’t like bread, what if they like, say, cigarettes? And what if instead of giving them away you sold them at a price that was practically giving them away?”

Ralph, said after he eats poison berries:

“It tastes like burning!”

Ralph again, as he wakes up in his bed, floating down the street during a flood:

“I think I wet my bed.”

I wish that I had the book with me at work. I was just thinking about Moe’s lie detector test after Burns got shot. I think this is close…

Moe: Can I go now? I have a date. _BUZZ_  
Moe: Okay, Okay. I was going to stay home and ogle the women in the Victoria’s Secret catalog. _BUZZ_  
Moe: Alright, the Sears catalog. _DING_  
Moe: I don’t deserve this shabby treatment. _BUZZ_

As a substitute for simply saying yes, my fiancee and I will quote Captain McAllister from the chili cook off episode: “Aye, the hot pants.”

Although its not a line, one of the moments that sticks out in my mind is in the peewee football episode. Rod and Todd Flanders wear numbers 66 and 6, respectively. Standing together in a huddle, it becomes 666. When I noticed that I just about fell out of my chair.

Anyway:

Homer on Guns:

"A gun isn’t a weapon! It’s a tool, just like a butcher knife, or a harpoon, or…or an alligator.

Homer on Bees:

“Ow! oooW! They’re defending themselves somehow!”  
(From the same ep.)

First beekeeper: It’s quiet  
2nd Beekeeper: Yes. A little to quiet.  
1stBK: How so?  
2nd BK: Bees usually buzz. No buzz means no bees.  
(a bee flies by)  
1st BK: oh, there’s one now!  
2nd BK: To the Bee-mobile!  
1st BK: You mean your old chevy?  
2nd BK: Yes.

Homer: “Or you’ll release the dogs? Or the bees? Or the dogs with bees in their mouth and when they bark they shoot bees at you?”

“Oh, the internet’s on COMPUTERS now…”

there are so many more…
