I also use situation-appropriate variations of "of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she walks into mine."
I have to go with "Get to the chopper!".
Whenever I see a chopper (mostly if it's in a game or movie) I scream that line. =P
EDIT: Also, "First, take a big step back... and literally, FUCK YOUR OWN FACE!"

Bonus points for giving me The Book and Chapter.
If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I have become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 2 And if I should have prophecy and should know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I should have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. 3 And if I should distribute all my goods to feed the poor, and if I should deliver my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profits me nothing.
Charity is patient, is kind: charity envies not, deals not perversely, is not puffed up, 5 is not ambitious, seeks not her own, is not provoked to anger, thinks no evil: 6 Rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices with the truth: 7 Bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Charity never falls away: whether prophecies shall be made void or tongues shall cease or knowledge shall be destroyed. 9 For we know in part: and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that which is perfect has come, that which is in part shall be done away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child. But, when I became a man, I put away the things of a child. 12 We see now through a glass in a dark manner: but then face to face. Now I know in part: but then I shall know even as I am known. 13 And now there remain faith, hope, and charity, these three: but the greatest of these is charity.

"The buisness of the progressives is to go on making mistakes; the buisness of the conservatives is to prevent the mistake from being corrected."

Probably apocraphyl, but the story of Napoleon threatening the French bishops that he would destroy the Church, and them retorting that if it was still standing after their best efforts, what chance did he have?

"You cannot see what I see because you see what you see. You cannot know what I know because you know what you know. What I see and what I know cannot be added to what you see and what you know because they are not the same kind. Neither can it replace what you see and what you know, because that would be to replace you yourself."
"First they came for the Communists, and I did not speak out, because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out, because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Unions, and I did not speak out, because I belonged to no Union.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out, because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me, and there was no-one left to speak out for me." - Pastor Niermoller.
