Open Friday: Real, Fun Quotes

I wanted something fun for today's Open Friday question, so here it is: what's the most amusing in character quote you can remember from a game session? To make it a little more challenging, let me stipulate that I'm looking for quotes that can be enjoyed without any context. So, all I want is a quote without any setup or explanation.

For example, here's one I'll never forget:
"Chim-pan-zees wan-na be free!"

    Spoken by Twinderf the Halfling in the middle of a debate when we found a cow that in the entryway of a cavern complex. Someone in the party proposed we take the cow back to town, sell it, and use the cash to hit the tavern. But the party leader was sure it was trick and wanted to attack the cow--he was convinced it was polymorphed or an illusion or something.
