Here is a thread dedicated to those quote that are not common, but should be.

Why are they not common?
- Because the media in which they were said has not been popular
- Because people don't understand it

I will begin, with, I think, is one of the most poetic quote ever

There are no happy endings, because nothing ever ends
From Schmendrick, in The Last Unicorn

Not sure how unpopular this is, but here's one of my favorite quotes:

God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of his own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players, to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.

Terry Pratchett, "Good Omens"

Troy: Flat?
Veronica: Just as God made me.
Troy: Are you always this persnickety?
Veronica: Sometimes I'm even persnicketier.

Troy: Guess what I'm doing this weekend.
Veronica: I'm guessing it involves autoeroticism.

Veronica Mars is full of excellent quotes.

One I really like from Blake's Seven (which means you have to be of a certain age to remember it :smallbiggrin: ):

Vila: "I'm entitled to my opinion!"
Avon: "It is the assumption that we are entitled to it as well that I find irritating."

"God will forgive them. He'll forgive them and allow them into heaven. I can't live with that."

Richard, Dead Man's Shoes. Pretty good film.
