For whatever reasons, really. If you apply the line in some form or fashion. Please share it!

One of my favorites is this one from Men In Black:

Quote"A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals -- and you know it" -K

My own spoken variant is usually some variation of: "A person is smart; people are panicky, dangerous fools." But I admit, I borrowed this from the "Everybody Knew..." bench scene from MiB.

'Dogs and cats, living together.  Mass hysteria.  Panic in the streets.'

When do I use it?  Usually when some group or other is overreacting to something trivial.  Like:

'Did you hear!?  They're repaving Chestnut Street and adding a bike lane!  What next?'
"Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women.~*~*~Don't think it's all been done before

So many good ones can come from Ghostbusters or something like Groundhog Day, and I'm not surprised.  :-)

Stardusk

Boondock Saints when the old bartender says: "Why don't you make like a tree....and get the f*** out of here?"

At work I say that I am the one who is making like a tree. I say it almost every day.

Lilias

When I was still doing the school run with the Spawn on foot, there were times when the moon (gibbous, a few days past full) was still high in the sky that late in the morning. I've given the 'Massive object emerging from hyperspace!' line from Rogue One so many times, he would look at me with that disgusted 'You. Are. Ridiculous.' expression, which made it all so much funnier.

He's just as disgusted when I say to him 'I find that answer vague and unconvincing', but has a lot less wiggle room there.
To go in the dark with a light is to know the light.
To know the dark, go dark. Go without sight,
and find that the dark, too, blooms and sings,
and is traveled by dark feet and dark wings.
~Wendell Berry

Whenever someone doesn't leave a message on the machine:

'*Pewpew!* Boring conversation anyways.'

When I was working in a factory, I had several opportunities to tell my supervisor "Witness the power of this fully armed and operational [industry process] station."

"There's a little bit of pee comin' out of me right now." Peter Jason "Star Lord" Quill, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1

I've been known to use Dean's "Yeah? Yeah? Yeah!?" String from The Iron Giant when someone is telling me something really obvious in a mildly dangerous situation. Don't get to use it too much.

I've used "I find your lack of faith disturbing." During MP game sessions, just because I find it disturbing doesn't mean lack of faith in my skill isn't unwarranted.
If you're searching the lines for a point, well you've probably missed it; there was never anything there in the first place.

I find SW to be an endless source of such. Books, movies or shows.

If only saying it was making it so.

I find myself using the classic line from Spaceballs when describing how my co-workers are acting at times "I knew it, I'm surrounded by assholes."
Responses will be slow up until this coming Monday. Away from it all, and wont be using the internet as much. Get back to you soon.

It would be nice to know those I've written with are okay.

But is there a major asshole as well as a general asshole?

Most are major assholes, it's hard to put one above another with the people I work with.

A book but it made it into the movie but I'll use some variation on:

In the beginning the Universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

On those lines:

Do you think God gives a damn about miniature donkeys?

I fear he doesn’t,

And I fear that’s where it’s all gone wrong.

Since this just happened, and it was a line I've used so much that I literally had to re-locate the movie and scene I'd lifted it from:

'You make me sad' (delivered in a very deadpan manner.)

(King Arthur in 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail', to the Black Knight)

More often, I fall back to Mortal Kombat. "It has begun" "And now a taste of things to come" among others. Quick and to the point.
