Favourite One-Liners

DieAnotherDay

A James Bond film isn't complete without a good few quirky one-liners/quips here and there.
Here is some of my very favourites :
GF - "I must be dreaming"
TB - "I think he got the point"
LALD - "Butterhook!"
TSWLM - "Egyptian builders"
FYEO - "He had no head for
heights"
TND - "Interesting role model"
TWINE - "I see you put your money where your mouth is"

And how can I forget the infamous "I thought Christmas only comes once a year" )

Barbel

TB- "How far do you go?"
TMWTGG- "Speak now or forever hold your peace."
DAD- "Saved by the bell!

You know....I can't stand that line...even Brozza looks embarrassed when he delivers it...

Number24

"Speak now or forever hold our piece" TMWTGG
"We have a saying too, and you`re full of it!" TLD

I've always loved from Moonraker.

:My God, what's Bond doing?
:I think he's attempting re-entry, sir.

And fron Skyfall, as the heavy screams as he getting eaten. Bond quips
" It's the circle of life " so cold but so funny.

Number24

Ah,the famous 007 witt - or at least half of it!

NSNA had a couple of good ones:

When asked to fill a specimen jar at Shrublands: "From here?"
And
Fatima Blush: "Mr Bond, you're all wet!"
Bond: "Yes, but my Martini's dry."

LALD : "There's no sense in going off half-cocked..."
Skyfall: "your interior decorating tips are always very much appreciated, 007."

But my favourite, from Thunderball:

Fiona (in the bath): "Mr Bond, I think you're in the wrong room."
Bond: "Not from where I'm standing..." )

Here's another exchange from the underrated Never Say Never Again that I enjoy:

Fatima Blush: You know that making love to Fatima was the greatest pleasure of your life.
James Bond: Well, to be perfectly honest, there was this girl in Philadelphia...
Fatima Blush: SHUT UP!

All those are great. I like how the Philadelphia Girl one is a nod to FRWL.

Tanya: Am I as exciting as those western girls?
Bond: Well, once I was with M in Tokyo...

Maybe that line explains Bond's quip to Silva about it not being his first time ! )

"It looks very difficult...Why no, it isn't, is it?"

I don't care much for TB, but that line always stood out as Bond at his arrogant best.

Also, the entire scene with Bond and XXX getting away from Jaws in the van. I think I once counted like seven one-liners in a two or three minute span.
