      I think this is the correct answer, at least in English language.

      From the top of my head in roughly the right order:

      Tis but a flesh wound You’re father smells of elderberries We want…a shrubbery Watery tarts throwing swords at people is no basis for a government She turned me into a newt On second thoughts, it’s a silly place Bravely bravely ran away You have to know these things when you’re a king you know

      It took growing up to get it, but I love the scene where the peasant is explaining to King Arthur that strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is a terrible basis for a system of governance.

      LOL. “Let’s get out of here before one of those things gets Guy.” Cracks me up every time.

          Such a good movie. Think I’ll watch it again when I get home.

    I have several ol’ reliables:

    Grandma’s Boy: “high score? What’s that mean?”

    Snatch: “when you’re in reverse, things tend to come from behind ya.”

    Tombstone: “i got two guns, one for each of ya.”

    Big Lebowski: “he’s a good man Jeffrey. And thorough.”

    There’s more, but those are probably my most quoted.
