I love this from Pirates of Penzance
Quote:
All.
A paradox, a paradox,
A most ingenious paradox.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,
That paradox.
CHANT
King.
For some ridiculous reason, to which, however, I’ve no desire to be disloyal,
Some person in authority, I don’t know who, very likely the Astronomer Royal,
Has decided that, although for such a beastly month as February,
twenty-eight days as a rule are plenty,
One year in every four his days shall be reckoned as nine and twenty.
Through some singular coincidence – I shouldn’t be surprised if it were owing to the
agency of an ill-natured fairy –
You are the victim of this clumsy arrangement, having been born in leap-year,
on the twenty-ninth of February;
And so, by a simple arithmetical process, you’ll easily discover,
That though you’ve lived twenty-one years, yet, if we go by birthdays,
you’re only five and a little bit over!
Ruth & King.
Ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha!
Ho! ho! ho! ho!
Frederic.
Dear me!
Let’s see! (counting on fingers)
Yes, yes; with yours my figures do agree!
Ruth & King.
Ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha!
Frederic. (more amused than any)
How quaint the ways of Paradox!
At common sense she gaily mocks!
Though counting in the usual way,
Years twenty-one I’ve been alive.
Yet, reckoning by my natal day,
Yet, reckoning by my natal day,
I am a little boy of five! Quote: _________________ Starting October 13th: globe trotting from my kitchen. Follow along on Cook In Fifty-Two

I saw Pirates of Penzance last year and my favourite quote there was:
"Bring out the force"
(bobbys start fighting)
"no, not that force!"

Thanks! Um..., what should i start with...
"Agh, I can't wait to get off this island! When it's not raining, it's snowing and when it's not snowing, it's foggy!" Gawain complaned.
"And that's the summer?"Lanceolot joked.
"Rain's good...washes all the blood away." Bors replied after laughing.
"But it doesn't help the smell." Gawain retored.
"So Bors, do you nd Varnora plan to take all your little children home with you?"
"I'm trying to avoid that decision....by getting killed." All knights laugh.
From King Arthur

There are loads of funny quotes in KA, even though the story isn't so funny. I like the one where Bors explains how his children don't have names, but numbers (Help, I can't remember it properly!).

(oh, what it is...let me think...hold on....)
Okay, I got it!
"Dagonet. She wants to get married, give the children names." Bors said, leaning over to Dagonet.
"Women. The children already have names, don’t they?" Tristran said.
"Just Gilly. It was too much trouble, so we gave the rest of them numbers." Bors said, shaking his head.
"That’s interesting. I thought you couldn’t count." Lancelot joked, causing everyone to laugh.
"You know, I never thought I’d get back home alive. Now that I’ve got the chance, I don’t think I’d leave my children." said Bors.
Dagonet shook his head. "You’d miss them too much."
"I’ll take them with me. I like the little children. They mean something to me.
... especially number 3. He’s a good fighter." Bors said, thinking thoughtfully and talking softly.
"That’s because he’s mine." Lancelot retorded and all knights laugh histerically, esepiaclly Gawain.

I love that movie, and there were funny moments. (be careful not to include some of their language in quotes though  ) I also like this quote from a letter a parent wrote to school, to excuse her child from class.... yeah I'm a teacher so we get a kick out of crazy parent notes.
"My son is under a doctor's care and should not take P.E. (gym class) today. Please executehim."- yeeesh what a mom.
