Peter Sellers in one of the Pink Panther movies - I believe it was "The Pink Panther strikes again" - his funniest in my opinion:
Inspector Clouseau, on seeing small yapping dog in hotel lobby
"Does your dog bite?" Hotel owner says "No"
Dog attacks his leg.                                       
Inspector Clouseau- "I thought you said your dog did not bite"
Hotel owner- "That is not my dog!"

You'll have to imagine the French accent.

A lot of them from The Princess Bride, especially:

"Death cannot stop true love. All it can do is delay it for a while."

and

"You fell victim to one of the classic blunders, the most famous of which is 'Never get involved in a land war in Asia', but only slightly less famous is this: 'Never go in against a Sicilian, when death is on the line!'."

and the legendary:

"Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."

In The Thirteenth Warrior Antonio Banderas plays an Arab, in the early middle ages - a well-educated and cultured chap - who gets sent off with a bunch of Vikings to fight a bunch of cannibal cultists so mean that they even scare the Norsemen.

At one point, there has been a major fight, and the bad guys have been driven off for the moment, and the good guys are wandering around, exhausted and unable to believe they survived.

One Norsman comes up to Banderas and offers him a jug.

Banderas: "I may not! 'Neither of the distillation of wheat nor of the grape....' "

The Viking laughs loudly.

Banderas looks confused.

The Viking: "HONEY! It's made from HONEY!"

Banderas looks at the jug, thinks, and takes a big slug.

Well, what about moments of silence for a change? Speaking of Gregory Peck, the whole last scene of Roman Holiday when neither he nor Audrey Hepburn say a word (oh there are words, but....), and he walks out at the end is one of the saddest scenes I can remember, noble too, in a way that has gone completely.

An absolute symphony of silence is much of "The Graduate", though everyone remembers the words. Without the awkward silences, starting with Benjamin and gradually infecting everyone, it would be nothing.

One of the great moments of silence that lasts just the perfect beat and no more is Claude Rains' tour de force in the last scene in Casablanca when he has to decide which horse to back. It is always a great moment, perfect timing -- audiences invariably applaud or laugh with relief, even if they have seen it a hundred times (like me).

yours, Peter T.

From "A Man for All Seasons"

First Paul Scofield's SirThomas More informs his aristocrat friend the Duke of Norfolk ( Nigel Davenport )to be careful with his words as Moore fears the equivalent of England's version "The Terror" occasioned by King Henry VIII's "loyalty oath" proclamation.
To this the rather proud and self-assured Duke of Norfolk retorts " Man you're ill. This isn't Spain , ya know, It's England !"

A line that haunts the Duke of Norfolk to the bone when he's been told personally ,by King Henry's hatchetman,Cromwell,
that the King himself wants Norfolk to become personally involved in what will become "the purge" of Moore. The dialogue ends in Cromwell's private chamber with Cromwell coldly saying to the proud Norfolk that he wouldn't trun the King down "if I were you".
Norfolk: " Are ye threatening me?"
Cromwell " My dear Norfolk; this isn't Spain. This is ENGLAND."
upon which Norfolk's face turns cold remembering these words he had just spoken to Moore and the line " Ask not for whpom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee" comes to mind.

Another usly delivered line for Norfolk was when he collects the chain of office from the deathbed slab of Cardinal Woolsey. As Orson Wells' Woolsey says his final parting words " If I had served God half so well as I had served my King, God would not have left me here to die in such a place".
Without missing a single beat Norfolk fires back " Thank God yer dynig here. The King would have ye die in the Tower."
