"Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn"
Because when the words are spoken, it always sounds so disgusting and like the person will throw up at any point in saying them.
for those who don't know what it means...
"In his house at R'lyeh, dead Cthulhu waits dreaming."

Almost any line coming from Christopher Lee in the Lord of the Rings movies, if that man's voice doesn't give you chills then you may need to have your ears examined
I loved the short story and the game of the same name. The way that the ending of the short story connected to the title gave me chills. The ideas behind the story absolutely perturbed me.T8B95 said:
OT: A lot of quotes from Persona titles tend to give me chills
-"The more false images one yearns for, the more one stops yearning for reality..."
-"Humans ache to expose their suppressed sides, while the prying eyes around them are curious to see them laid bare"
-"Though life is merely a journey to the grave, it must not be undertaken without hope. Only then will a traveler's story live on, treasured by those who bid him farewell."
-"But tell me this; are you aware of the many and varied selves you harbor within you?"
-"No one wishes for the fog to lift. Why act against the wishes of your fellow man? Consider... is that truly just?"
I also love a lot of the quotes from the final battle in Persona 3. I have them all typed out for when I used to use them in my essays, with the appropriate tarot card (or arcana) each quote represented. (listed as a spoiler for space, and in case people think that quotes from a final boss are automatic spoilers)

Sorry for the long post; the Persona series is a goldmine for good quotes
"Hey! Why dont you pick on some-one your own size..?" - Dave, Kick-Ass.
XD Yeah, it rings with awesome to me, particularily because he's saying it with a bazooka in hand at the time..
"I am so gonna shoot the shit out of you!" 'Zvatto'(1P), Lost Planet 2
Its simple but in Lost Planet 2 thats about the most badass line used in the entire game. I dont get tired of hearing it.
And just about every line where Female Commander Shepherd is yelling at something or some-one angrily.

"It's not just that wolf of his. The wolf just gets scraps. Bones. It's him. He... eats... people. He cooks them like they were steaks. Just like they were steaks. Now, he's got both of us."
-Lucille, Sin City
Easily the darkest, most disturbing part of the movie... Kind of freaky to read. Very freaky to watch.
Check it out if you haven't.

"An oasis of horror in a desert of boredom"
-Charles Baudelaire
This is the quote that opens up Roberto Bolano's final novel, 2666. Contextually speaking, the quote resounds most whilst reading the 4th section of the book; one in which the details of hundreds of homicides in a fictional city in northern Mexico are presented to the reader. The quote in turn to me shows a deep seeded emotional complacency involving the willful ignorance of human existence in the 21st century. Every time I open the book and I see just that quote, I see apocalypse and the extinction of humanity as I understand it's most endearing and passionate qualities. That quote DESTROYS me.

Im going to go with the Oppenheimer quote. One of the most chilling quotes from anyone. You can literally here in his voice the horror he has witnessed.
I knew I should have included that one.The_root_of_all_evil said:

That's from a little flash game on Newgrounds called Time Fcuk. There's a weird undercurrent of..tumour..to that game. It;s hard to explain until you've played it.
It's annoying, because I know I have dozens of unsettling quotes from various sources, but I never seem to be able to recall them when the opportunity arises.
