The film's full of great quotable lines - someone earlier mentioned Monty Python and how quotable they are, particularly 'Holy Grail'. Whenever my wife and I are with people and someone is having difficulty understanding something, one of us will usually say 'Look, it's quite simpleyou stay here and make sure he doesn't leave the room'..to which we generally get blank looks.
Maggie Smith's 'Oh that's tacky..' is absolutely delicious especially as it is a reaction to her character discovering what necrophilia is. -

After reading this entire thread, I really must see this movie.
For you who have not seen it, I highly recommend "The Bobo", which has my favorite line from any movie. Britt Ekland has been having an affair with this older man, who happens to be a Maserati dealer. She is breaking off the affair and he is terrified she will blackmail him. He offers her some token of his appreciation for all the good times, and she says "I would like a box of chocolates" He breathes a sigh of relief, and says "I will buy you the most beautiful box of chocolates in Barcelona". She then says "Thank you. Just leave it in the front seat of the Maserati".
That movie is worth watching just to hear Britt deliver the last line of the film, which I will not reveal. "If you've seen one -

If I'm holding hands in a group of people I've got to try this; when they were all sitting around the table holding hands, Sam is sitting next to the old nurse.
Sam: Stop dat!
Nick: What's wrong?
Same: Da nurse is giving my palm da finger. Dirty old broad.
Sam: I don't kiss. I don't like kissing, now leave me alone. -

Lines I use all the time:
"That's tackythat's really tacky"
"The bones in my body" - in French accent - usually occurs when someone is looking for hamburger buns
(When Maggie Smith asks what Peter Falk means when he says 'number 2') Eileen Brennan responds "I'll tell you later. It's disgusting"
"I like her, I really like her"
I enjoy quoting the nurse "Sometimes my gas kills" "I can't help it I'm old" "Sicky-poo"
Luckily this is a big movie in my family so whenever I quote it they know what I'm talking about. -

"Idiot!! Did not finish wise old saying!"
Great movie; I appreciate it a lot more now than I did when it first came out and my father pretty much had to explain why certain things were funny. I enjoyed it anyway just because I liked everyone in the cast so much, but now I've seen the originals myself and I really "get it". -

Wang: "It is late and my eyes are getting tired."
Diamond: "I thought they always looked like that."
Tess reprimands him for the racial slur. I can't remember what she says.
Diamond: "You're right. I'm sorry slanty."
